Blogger in Binghamton… And some other stuff.


What an odd week. This morning’s bizarreness started (not counting the odd dreams) with reading the morning blogs… Not unusual – except one of them actually mentioned my old home town – Binghamton, NY – and the Santa Run 5K

Back at it! Did you miss me?


So, I have been quite quiet as of late!    The good news is that it isn’t due to any unforseen disaster with my Mother in law’s heart surgery.  She is doing AWESOME!  They kicked her out of the hospital earlier than

Sometimes a change of perspective helps us see what is important.


So for the last 24 hours I have been in the Cardiac Care Center of Wilson Memorial Hospital while my mother in law had a valve replacement done.  The surgery went well and she is recovering nicely.  In fact, the
