I'll keep you in my prayers and thoughts. Doesn't it seem like sometimes we go from one issue to another in a line that never ends? I hope that you and Mr. Jim will be able to take your trip, or another, and that the news in a couple of weeks will be better. <br />Hugs to you.

I am also praying that your mom's situation works out for the best. I'm going through the same thing with an elderly relative right now (I'm her closest relative) and the nursing home/rehab center says they'd like to release her Friday. I'm just not sure she is ready to go back to her home quite yet. On a lighter note, I loved your little raccoon visitor. What a darling :) Anxiously waiting for spring to arrive here in the Northeast. You're way ahead of us as the daffodils would have to push through over a foot of snow still on the ground to be seen! Enjoy your spring!...

I have to get at the next photo challenge and see what I can do. I don't feel capable enough to edit a photo so we'll see. It is, after all, a 'challenge'!

I hope things settle and your vision is restored to a point where you can still do the photography you so love to do, and we so love to see. And your MOM, well what can I say, hopefully she'll settle into her new home without difficulty and things will be better for all. You know all my best wishes are sent your way. Try to be positive, things will work out.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15171389134207433317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-25835295567284200742014-03-03T12:25:24.032-05:002014-03-03T12:25:24.032-05:00At the rate we're going we're not going to...At the rate we're going we're not going to see signs of Spring around here until June!

That would be a good diversion for me right now. You always inspire me to reach higher and learn more.
