I hope everyone had a very blessed Easter with lots of good food and fun with family and friends.

It’s a wonderful and special time to renew our faith, connect with those we love, contact friends and be thankful for all our benefits and privileges. I have much for which to be grateful these days.

My nephew Jesse, in Toronto, invited me to spend some time with him and Marie over the Easter break but I decided to do that on a less busy traffic weekend. I don’t mind the three or so hour drive or even getting lost along the way, but am getting too old to battle holiday traffic.

It seems April is turning out to be a gloriously busy month. Among my regular running – meetings, Mae Day, coffee klatch, lunch with Marlene, coffee and visit with Trudy – there is getting my taxes ready, a baby shower, a family........
