It has been too long since last I blogged

Yes, I know, more than two years have gone by, and some of you may be wondering if all is well. YES! Everything remains wonderful. We've now been happily married 47 years.

Our grandchildren are 4 and 6, and we have three Bichons again. The back yard is full of kid and dog things for each to play with and on.

We continue to improve the look of the yard and house, and I'm still coming up with projects. My skills at fetching and carrying, handing tools to Angela, and being the go-for remains fun for me. I think our hardest project was taking up the glue for the tile floor in the utility room, but we got it up. The new floor looks great. We've added new cupboard fronts to the kitchen and have solar on the roof now. We're working on repairing the porch posts currently.

The yard has a playhouse, a swing set with a tree house and a slide. There's a pulley contraption Angela designed for the girls to use, and ropes for swinging, jumping and climbing. We're considering a climbing wall and pool next. Oh yes, I forgot the balance beams - one's 3" high and the other is at ground level. It's for practicing and trying out new tricks. The dogs are also walking on the low one too.

I've written a book about how Angela's transition affected me, and I hope to see it in print soon. Don't you?

We've been RVing all over the country. We've taken some tours and done lots of sightseeing, visiting with family and friends, and enjoying the RV groups we belong to.

Yes, we continue to lecture at colleges and universities too.

So, you see, we haven't been inactive. I'll keep you posted from time to time. Let me hear from you, and remember, you can always email at jonniqtt@gmail.com
