Apologies

About three days ago, I got hit with a double whammy and the result has been no blog entries. Last week I experienced some pesky problems with accessing the Internet and they got increasingly worse as time went by. Then, out of the clear blue, I got hit with a bothersome respiratory and gastric malady that laid me down. The net affect of both problems was to have blogging put aside. I have suffered through the worst, am feeling much better, and have solved (fingers crossed) the problems with getting on line

I also looked at my email for the first time in several days and figure it's going to take at least a full day to process properly. Please accept my apologies for going AWOL.
