I  wanted to take a moment to let you know that I have NOT been "ME" as of late-- I have had a loss of a dear friend of mine and it has literally left me LOST!! I will be back to being myself soon -- I just have to mourn for her.. Bare with me as I go through this tough time... This month has been a very horrible month for me between my surgery(scheduled for 2/12) and this loss.. I am surely hoping that Feb. ends soon and Thank God that it is a short month... Those that have given condolence Thank you it really does mean alot to me... Those of you who have had no idea it is NOT that I left you in the dark because of any reason it just means that those who know have caught me online ... I will get through this time  , I just need to figure out how.. Thanks for the understanding. Thanks for the cards and small tokens of appreciation thus far...
