Susan Carey spun a FINE 'yarn':
><A distinguished young woman on a flight from Switzerland turned to the
><priest beside her, 'Father, may I ask a favor?'
><
><'Of course. What may I do for you?'

><
><I got tied up with family matters and being on the road with being a
><traveling nurse and just gave up on being a knitting fool. I think I
><am ready to join in again, though it may be a temporary thing. I read
><some of the time and try to maintain some of my sanity with knitting,
><but I miss you guys too much and that is why I am writing tonight.
><
><Beginning in February or so, I started to lose track of you guys. I
><was living part of the time in Largo. It was awful. I am sorry if I
><offend anyone living and loving that part of Florida, but it was not
><for me. I suppose it has its good points, but they did not beckon to
><me. I never even saw the gulf when down there. I went to work and
><slept and that was it. I watched a bit of TV and knit a little bit.
><No entertainment whatsoever.
><
><In April I had an opportunity to return to Gainesville and work
><locally. It was what I wanted and needed. That is home and though I
><remained on the night shift I was still back in my own bed when I did
><sleep. DD's BF had moved into my house when his job fell through so I
><had a companion of sorts and a dog, too. Long story, but not a bad
><one. Now I was working 3 twelve hour night shifts at Shands at AGH
><(Alachua General Hospital) about five miles from home, still as a
><traveler. From day one, they talked about me hiring on as a
><permanenet employee, and that is what has happened.
><
><In June a number of things happened. DD graduated with her AS from
><her school of acting only to return home and to college locally. And
><DS and DIL moved to Virginia with a lot of help from all of us. We
><love it up there, but not quite enough to pull up stakes and move in
><with them.
><
><At this point DD and her BF have broken up but remain good friends. I
><am trying to get back on track living here and seeing what can be
><salvaged to make home comfy.
><
><I hope health issues are not too bad as we all age and find that to
><be something we take with us. Prayers are sent for those in need or
><for those who accept that.
><
><I am blessed to have such talented children and grand children as most
><of us are. This fall my daughter chose to take classes which challenge
><her in college and has chosen to take a different path from acting and
><will approach speech pathology and linguistics as a profession in the
><future. My grandchildren, carrying on the performance traits of aunts
><and uncles have decided on dance as as major for their fields of
><endevors. We were pleased to hear that not one but both granddaughter
><and grandson have been selected to perform in the local performance of
><the Nutcracker Suite in December in Springfield, IL. I am making a
><trip
><to see them in this performance, as proud as one grand parent can
><possibly be. Sorry to brag so much getting back into the fold, but I
><just had to tell you all my news.
><
><Higs,
><Susan

Susan . . .
Of course we remember you!
Q tho, why the intro of what appears to be a joke twice at the beginiing of
your post???
