Thanks for the wellwishes. They’re appreciated more than you know. I’ve been in hybernation mode since it happened. Spending lots of time with the puppies and Kahuna and stitching almost every waking moment.
I got the following from Melissa’s blog and thought it rather appropriate. It does sort of describe, a little bit, who I am:

I also saw a wonderful post from her about the word for the year. Funny, that. I’ve been thinking of my 2008 goals and there’s a word that has been popping up everytime I try to pen them…..perseverance.
What is perseverance?
Perseverance is commitment, hard work, patience, endurance – it’s being able to bear difficulties calmly and without complaint – it’s trying again and again.
All great masters are chiefly distinguished by the power of adding a second, a third, and perhaps a fourth step in a continuous line. Many a man had taken the first step. With every additional step you enhance immensely the value of you first. Ralph Waldo Emerson
The rewards for those who persevere far exceed the pain that must precede the victory. Ted W. Engstrom
May 2008 be everything you hope it to be.
