Time flies.

Two years have flown by. The puppy is now a lovely, full grown dog. The daughters are graduated, employed and/or continuing their education.

After four years of searching, I finally found a doctor who believes this is auto-immune disease and helped me find a drug that is working. My joints still ache but I have more energy and less muscle pain.

Another summer has come and gone. This winter is about clearing out and reshuffling the rooms of our house. Sewing room goes downstairs, office upstairs. A guest room goes in the office. I might even get the basement bathroom finished.

Given my upbringing, I'm never satisfied. The "to do" list has no end. But, I know no other way.
