No, not really, I have the last family pix that includes her, along with her
hubby and 5 of my grandchildren & 4 great grandchildren currently set as one
of the screen backgrounds (I'm set for 8 workscreens here, running linux of
course), so I'm constantly reminded of the lack of a guarantee for any of us.
>P.P.S: How ya doin' on the broccoli consumption?
Decent, I do major damage to the salad bar at the steak house a couple of
times a week. The sugar is creeping up though. 141 just now & haven't eaten
in about 7 hours. Gonna have to figure out something to do about that I
think before much longer. I'm not on insulin, I make plenty but it doesn't
work too well.
