Hi everyone, I need to keep this short for now, but i want you all to know that Artie's returning home from the rehab tomorrow. `yayyyy!!!!!!! :) He's like one big happy kid and i'm basking in his excitement. What a blessing!!! At the same time i just know Artie's more tired than he realizes, so if you do call i ask you not to talk too long, and as for visits Artie may first need time (though we'll play it by ear) to know when he's up to visiting. He can judge that for himself, of course, and i'll be happy to keep you all posted. :) I'm extra busy right now in preparing for my sweetie's return home tomorrow, so please know that i won't be replying to emails until maybe the end of the week. of course that too will need to be played by ear. ****** And as i think of it ******* Artie's and my wonderful friends (Bhavani & Dick that many of you know of) are moving tomorrow, and it's quite the move as well. To this time. Artie and I were blessed to have a good-bye visit with them at the rehab on sunday, but I must say that after their living close by and our sharing so much together for over 40 yrs, this particular move leaves us with mixed feelings. Great joy for them, of course, but also mixed with sadness. In any case if any of you are drawn to send them your good wishes, please do so at - http://www.juno.com/~Bhavaniowl `And thank you big time once again!! "Again, bon voyage, our very special friends. and as you well know i'm not very good at saying good-byes." Anyhow this is news while it is news, and do stay tuned in for parts 2, 3, 4, etc...... :) Much love to one and all, Anne Marie & Artie
