I found your great site while visiting Bill's blog tonight.<br />Sorry about your accident I hope you heal faster than I did the last fall I took. lol<br />I hate to say this but looking at your eye actually made mine hurt. You really have a shiner there but of course you already know this.<br />Congrats on your book publication. I am in awe of anyone that follows their dreams and especially when it is publishing a book.<br />For a long time now that has been one of my dreams tucked away somewhere waiting to be nourished.<br />Looking forward to being one of your followers.<br />MaggieGrandma Yellow Hairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10917551672825097342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669517949054944028.post-12284426901697362602011-09-14T17:35:46.987-07:002011-09-14T17:35:46.987-07:00Hope sends hugs!!

When my hubby works every other week in London, he also (all 56yrs young of him) cycles to work - right past Buckingham Palace, through Piccadilly Circus and all the most busy and dangerous routes known to man.
