I am still here. This past 4 months have been crazy for me. David and I have been looking for a house in Texas. We have friends and family down near San Antonio and we have been spending hours and hours on the computer looking at houses, then we have them go and look at the houses and then we decide. Unfortunately we have had too many close calls, we are prepared to make an offer and the agent tells us that the house is off the market. This has happened more times than I care to tell you. So our search continues. But I am pretty sure that by the time we move that I will know every city and expressway around San Antonio and Austin.

It has been rough on Davids health, all the stress with looking for a house. So we have had some difficult times.

We were prepared to move before November so I hung onto my car so that we could just ship it down to Texas. Well as you can see we are still here and I am pissed at myself that I didn't put her into a climate controlled storage like I had for the past 4 years. She has been sitting in the cold garage and I am hoping that she is OK once we have to move her.

My oldest daughter got married at the end of November. She decided to get married where she and her fiance'. now husband live. So they flew all the parents out to Las Vegas for the wedding. So I spent the week in Vegas, wish I could say that I came back with a pocket full of cash, but I can't.

Once we got back I was right into adopting families for the holidays for Audiokarma.org. I shopped with 20+ families and seniors providing them with gifts, essentials and food for Christmas. All the while I was doing that I was working on the worst cold. So I spent the week between Christmas and New Years fighting a really bad cold, still have the damn cough from that cold.

So here we are today. I have been checking in here, just not posting. But I have to try to bring back some life and excitement cause there are a great group of people here.

I hope everyone had a Happy Holiday and are looking forward to a great cruising season.

Wow Nancy sounds like a lot going on for you. Are thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

American Coney Island also sells kits, Detroit style conys of course. Dearborn Sausage hotdogs, buns, sauce and a Vidalia onion. Packed in Styrofoam with dry ice.

Well Nancy you answered my questions from the other post. Hope you find a new home and get settled in Texas soon so you can spend a little more time here.

Ken, glad you're stay in hospital was short. Do they have any ideas what was going on besides being dehydrated?

Wow Texas, just sick of Michigan? Texas is on my short list of places I would like to check out for possible relocation.

Only thing they told me Hank was, it was a real bad COPD night. Hope I don't have any more of them or I'll be pushin up daisy's for sure.

Well we hope you don't have any more either. Take care of your self Ken.
