Hello everyone! First and foremost I would like to apologize for taking so long returning to post here at WC. It seems like I've been gone forever.   I miss all of my friends here and all the fun in the forums much more than I thought I would.   I plan on making a better effort to stay in touch, the local library has longer hours now so I can access it more often and my mother is back in Illinois from Florida so I can get online at her house, where I am posting from now.  Yay Mom!

Words cannot express my/our gratitude for all the cards, gifts, prayers and well wishes everyone sent to my wife and I over the Christmas Holidays. We had a much better holiday and New Year than we could have imagined. The cards we received really helped brighten up the ol' wobble-box (mobile home) since we had to burn the Christmas tree for heat.

Sadly, the job market is still in the toilet but prospects are getting better. Hiring is up in some sectors, mostly minimum wage, but at 55 years of age, a lot of employers say I'm over qualified and over experienced.(WTF?) In my defense, I am trying to forget things as fast as I can! I  keep plugging away but fuel prices aren't helping my cause much but persistence will pay off eventually.

To all you fine folks across all the Stardock sites I wish you peace, happiness and good health.

 That's all for now but you can't get rid of me easily...... I'll be back!!!
