I'm sort of back but will probably be a much more infrequent blogger. I need to keep the world of the Internet in perspective with real life.

Hopefully both he and Bagman will come back to you soon. I can't imagine you without their creative input. I wonder how little Miss Kay is, how she must have grown.

Sounds like Butler is missing the FSO or in the least working with you. Would be a shame if your creative side was always and forever ignored. I don't know how you managed to post - I was publishing and reverting to draft the blog and reinserting the link-up into the template, trying to get it to work - and all of a sudden there you were. so we are up and running just the way it is.... hugs from Houston.GingerVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16501023251788210094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-945783876327380823.post-78079629373000096072013-12-05T12:12:41.070-04:002013-12-05T12:12:41.070-04:00Did not know I missed you that much...BUT I did th...Did not know I missed you that much...BUT I did think about you just a few days ago.
