I've been in the hospital, and not just visiting.  I was in there Monday and Tuesday, and the doctor just called..... I'm not done yet, I guess.  They want to stick something down my esophagus to look at my heart some more.  But I went in for vision problems and speech difficulties.  I knew there was something blocking part of my sight and I couldn't think or speak properly. 

So it's been quite a day, now, trying to get used to where all the keys are on the type board, etc.  I've gotten a little better so far.  Fed the dogs and chicken, and they are very happy I'm back.  Winter has returned in full force for now.  The power was out last night and the fire was keeping us warm enough.  The wind howled fiercely.  Well, I think I may close for now, and will try to keep posting in the future.
