Hi Stacey, I thought I would read your journal to catch up with what’s new. It reads like a suspense novel. All these unplanned adventures would be overwhelming for most but I am proud of the way you meet each new challenge and keep on plugging along. What an example you are for those beautiful nieces and the rest of us. Your friends have such good ways of showing you how much they care about you. I especially like catching up on news from Denise (the comics) and other family members. Your cousin, Ann, and her Dad and stepmother were here Friday. Every 10 years four of her school friends from DC get together…she was here from Mass. for that. They all turned 50. After reading about climbing adventures, this will make you yawn. I’m going on a cruise on the Potomac for lunch and to play canasta or something equally exciting. Stacey, I love you and will keep praying for you. Wish I could give you a gentle hug.
