Can't believe that it is 4 years today since you've been gone and I still miss you every minute of every day. Sure life goes on but in a different way. There will always be something gone that I can't get back. I lit another candle for the coming year for you to remember us here. Til we meet again, much love, hugs & kisses. Sandy

Hi Bill, I've been working and that is keeping me busy. Only 3 days a week except a couple times it was 4 days but I requested only 3. My knees/legs have been hurting. I did get a cortisone shot last Nov. but it has worn off. I try to rest them and elevate them as much as I can. And I have been on a diet which I needed to do desparately, you remember. It will take time to get back down so I'm not getting discouraged. I hear from Lar & Bren occasionally. Last week, a nephew of Brenda's died from heroin. Such a shame only 25. Spring is tomorrow and the weather is getting really nice. Bernie & Mary Ellen are leaving on Fri. I hate to see them go. They are good neighbors always willing to help me when I need it. It wasn't a bad winter here but up north they got tons of snow. Larry would send me pix of the trees after a snowstorm. I don't miss that. And I know you didn't. Lacy is getting big, she is almost 10 months old and so cute. Darcy really likes her and they play together all the time. Even Dexter will run around with her. Schatzie had an issue walking recently but the doctor gave her some shots for her joints and she is better. I enjoy the few hours that I work and the money comes in handy for dog vet visits & dental work. Larry & Bill are good, Carmen's procedure went well and she is recuperating. I have a cavity that needs fixing but I keep putting it off. I'm doing OK, my eyes are good. I miss you all the time and so many things remind me of you and I do wish you were here so much. Remember the good times. Love ya, Sandy

Hi Bill, Today is Super Bowl Sunday. Game was between Seattle Seahawks & Denver Broncos. It was a blowout...Seahawks 43 - Broncos 8. I haven't talked with Jessie but I'm sure she is disappointed. I went to Babs for the first half. Took Lacy up to play with Piper, her sister and took Schatzie who is doing much better. The doctor is treating her with joint lubricant. I hope she continues to do well. I had cataracts removed from both eyes in January, 1 week apart. And now I can see so much better. It went well. Colors are brighter and clearer. Went to the same eye doctor you went to for your cataracts. I started a new job at Bealls Outlet on the island of Venice, 3 days a week. So far, so good. Larry is taking Carmen into the hospital for a procedure on her neck. She will be out in 24 hours I think. Well, game is over so I think I will watch a movie before I go to bed. Have to work tomorrow at 9AM. Love ya as always, Sandy
