Yesterday is a memory,

Tomorrow is a dream.

But today? Today is a gift. That's why we call it "the present".

Thats beautiful Ryan... thanks for reminding me of that.

How's Patty?

Hi Ryan -

Happy New Year. I just read your other posts about Patty's health, and the idiot people who may have harmed her further, and about how much you miss her.

With all that going on, you still have the 'presence' of mind to send all of us on this board another 'present'.

(Sorry - sometimes I am overwhelmed by being too punny!)

I know you were lonely last night, and that you are worried about your wife/soul mate.

How's she doing??

We're pulling for you- and her!

Thanks for the New year wishes. I sure hope things get better for you this new year.

Thanks, it is kind of lonely around here. Chefs hate cooking for one. Patty's beaten the infection. Don't think it tested positive for MRSA, but she's had it before, so we gotta be careful.

She'll come home Monday, or Tuesday. Don't know what the pain doc has up his sleeve next. Hope it's something good.
