HI all, Just wanted to let folks know about a couple of things going on with me right now. My mother thats in the nursing home here hasnt been doing real well of late so most days I spend down there with her until after 8pm in the evening and dont get online much till after 10 or after at night. SO IF i dont get back with some of you PLEASE DONT think I am ignoring anyone its just I cant get lots of things done for myself personally until way late in the evening. Wtih mother its pretty mucha progressive thing since she had the major stroke she had 12 years ago, she has been having much trouble swallowing foods now and tey think she may have a touch of pnuemonia on top of it all, She may have also had another mini stroke her speech has gotten quite slurred in the last few weeks and she will see a speech therapist tomorrow afternoon and her doctor shortly thereafter. SO folks with being a caregiver for mother and my S.O. has been haveing some problems with his dialysis lately too so I have to do alot of the things for him so he can get his rest. THUS my DOLL work has to be done at real odd hours when I have the chance to get it done, Its been SLOW going for my doll work in the last month due to all of these things plus I havesome of my own personal difficulties to deal with also. SO to all of those that I have swaps going with or commissions or dolls that are going out, PLEASE bear with me a little thinsg are taking me longer than I had anticipated to get done. I want to thank the MANY MANY friends I have online, Your friendship is so GREATLY APPRECIATED more than I can express!! TTYS MY FRIENDS!!! Kevin
