Ending my unannounced absence?

I apologize to my regular readers for the lengthy and unannounced absence.

I met a wonderful woman, fell in love, and have embarked on a life's journey with her. We all know how time consuming HEALTHY relationships are!

Also, during that time, my Marine son severly broke his neck in a combat training exercise, and some of my time in the last couple months has been consumed with that issue. He's doing GREAT, thank God, but will probably be discharged after completing convalescence leave and rehab therapy in the coming months.

My thankful hat's-off to the staff of Sentara Norfolk General Hospital and the awesomely professional and caring staff at the Naval Medical Center, Portsmouth, VA! Also to Sgt. T, 1st Sgt. Smith, Lt. Ray, all of Dan's Marine buddies, and especially Cpt. Kenney! Genuine concern and brotherhood revealed themselves. Semper Fi !


I hope I'll resume regular posting now. Thanks for checking back in, my dear readers!
