Good afternoon everyone:

I haven't been on the Board for a while because of so many "loose ends" that I hadn't planned on.

Once that happens, you know, everything goes to he** in a handbasket.

I have my head screwed back on correctly and I need to keep going to get to my goal. 50 pounds is great (don't get me wrong), but getting to my goal is the prize.

It's been a year since my husband's devastating stroke. He is coming along slowly and surely. However, it has taken a LOT out of me. I had never envisioned celebrating his birthday at the rehab nursing hospital, but we do what we need to do.

Below are photos of his "big day"! Last year, I didn't think he was going to make it, but God has given him another year and hopefully many more.

Keep going folks!!
