Hello!

It's cold as heck here in Michigan, and getting colder this week. We are in the process of making a big pot of tomato beef veggie soup today... with lotsa noodles for me! It's smelling delish!! Yummmm!

We've been dealing with wet macular degeneration (eye issue) in my family. My dad has limited vision due to this problem from years ago, and now its happening to his good eye. If you have macular degeneration, or know someone who does, be sure to visit the doctor for check ups regularly. My parents are fanatics with medical issues, they never fail to see their doctors regularly... and yet the second eye, no problems, was only caught on a routine check up and has been going bad for 3-5 years now. He didn't know... don't let this happen to you!
