Gosh, it has been an age since I have been over here and the only way to update quickly is in bullet form.

First and really great news … our son returned home last week. After insisting he was never returning we had to leave it in God’s hands and suddenly he phoned and asked if he could come home. It has all been good so far. I just keep pinching myself! Thanks for all your prayers and good wishes during a very difficult time in our lives.

I have been keeping busy painting and decorating and gardening. I am loving getting out in the dirt LOL!  We finished our dining room and got to use it for the family on Easter Sunday. I am getting bunches of free plants from friends which is really good since there was  next to nothing that survived.

We scored a free month at the local posh gym so we have been trying every class they offer and using the pool while we have the chance. Pilates is my favorite. It is like self chiropractic. Fridays I get to do Zumba, which is dancing to Latin music and very fun. Afterwards I love going in the jacuzzi. It is so nice to have this month long treat.

We went to some of the Philadelphia International Festival of the Arts. They had really nice free jazz evenings and the finale was a street fair on Broad street. They actually had it blocked off and turf laid down so the street was like a garden you could sit in. There were three stages with different music and at the end (we did not stay for it) wa a high wire act. I took some photos but have not downloaded them yet…. next post.

The weather has been seesawing up and down so I have not gotten the pink bike out yet. Looking forward to that!

I have to get around and get caught up a bit which is possibly impossible since it has been several weeks of posts and I know you are all so prolific!!!!!
