Sorry for the delay, I’ll try to bring you up to date.  Staffing has been working out well thus far, hopefully it can continue.  I have been working with a VESID which is a state-funded agency that helps people with disabilities get back to work or school (college), I am still debating but am leaning towards going back to school in the fall.

The snowstorm of several inches or more that we’ve had over the last day or so is very pretty, but restricts me from getting out to do the things that I need to do.  All I can keep thinking about is springtime .

This weekend, Anthony and I will be visiting Siena College for a dinner and Anthony will be staying overnight into Monday.  Ashley’s 16th birthday is coming up in few weeks, and she is still unsure what she wants to do.  It’s hard to believe, really hard to believe that my son will be going off to college and my daughter will be turning 16.  When my parents like all due, said Time flies the older you get, they were not kidding.

To sum it up, I need to be thankful that my staffing is working out for the time being, my children are safe and healthy, my health considering my situation is good, my mom, dad, brothers and sisters as well as my extended family and friends seem to be doing well.  I am very grateful, if it was not for all of them,  I might not be home, enjoying life to the fullest.

As far as research goes, things are moving slowly in soe areas, and quickly in others.  Funding seems to be moving forward, research seems to moving slowly but I along with everyone needs to realize that this is a very complicated issue and need to realize that our great researchers are doing all they can.  Until that day comes, I will, and I encourage others in the same \ similar situation to do your best and hold on.

Check back, I will write soon.
