Four months have passed since my last post on this blog.  Several times I took photos to post, but they weren’t very good.  There were the snow drops with their early beauty.  The focus was too soft.  Another shot featured our tree trimmer up in the birch tree.  The angle was all wrong.  In some cases, I couldn’t get past the chronic pain (my constant companion) to go for photos.

I’ve shed about forty pounds in the last two years.  This has helped reduce the pain level quite significantly.  In January, I switched to a grain-free diet.  This has reduced hand tremors.  At least it did until I cheated to indulge a craving for fish and chips.  The change was dramatic as terrible tremors returned.

The best thing that has happened in these past four months is that our granddaughter has completed the requirements for an MS degree in nursing education.  We are so very proud of Briana.

Looks like she will be teaching the next generation of nurses.  I feel good about that.
