Hello my dear reader friends.  It’s been a long week away… yet again.  My dad passed away last week, and so, I was with my family.  I had actually planned on visiting my dad as he wasn’t doing well, but upon touching down in Florida I got a feeling, which proved to be true.  He passed the night before.  Since I had such an early flight no one wanted to tell me the news until I got there.  It’s funny, but I had no idea, no feeling, until we landed.  And then, it was like a veil was lifted, and I knew.  It is still so sad to talk about, but I  wanted to share with why I’ve been away.

Here’s a photo of my dad, with my brother and I, taken in the mid 1960’s.  You can see how much we loved our daddy.

I may be a little slow getting back to normal with my dolly things, but I am sure going to try.  I was playing around a little today with Penny and some new wigs and eyes that arrived while I was away; that was fun.

Thanks for reading.  Bye for now.
