The mister and I were on a little holiday for the past few days.  No, neither tropical nor exotic.  We were on Vancouver Island visiting family and honing the art of living leisurely.  It was a lovely break from routine, and now that we are home, I am playing catch up with my many loyal readers and blogging friends.  I have been on the receiving end of so very many kind and thoughtful comments.  I deeply appreciate every one of them, just as I deeply appreciate every one of you. Thank you!
