    Aqua, just so you know you are not forgotten, I saw this and knew you might find a use for it.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

          George, you are welcome to use the pic, too. I bet you would also find uses for it.

          I thought I should bring a gift to share, and now that I think about y'alls, it can be a gift for each of you to use as you wish. LOL

              Hey there! How are you?

              It's going.

              When you flush in southern Minnesooooooooota any time in the future, you can think of me. Doing a project for work that is relevant to that, so I now have a new byline for all in this part of the state, "When you flush, think of Brenda." LOL

                          WELL!

                          Janet and I are well, she's fully retired and I consult part time to a southern research hospital - best gig i ever had. They'd like me to go full time but I really do not want to. Doing it for the mental and social involvement.

                          Daughter finished her MFA and is now project managing an entertainment fabrication company in Las Vegas, so we've made a few trips out there. Hawaii last year was great, but a long flight. In November we will head for New Orleans for a week and starting to plan a European trip.

                          Both my charities continue to grow, we're now handing out five $3,000 scholarships a year for the alumni association and the theater support group has passed the $100,000 mark in contributions to the program.

                          Cannot wait for the election to be over. The ads insult everyone's intelligence.

                          Where is your daughter now? I think she was last in Boston maybe or am I getting her mixed up with someone else?

                              We don't have as many of the old barnburners as we used to but it's still a pretty high level of discussion.

                                @Mik
                                All excellent news for your family, Mik! Glad to hear all of it. Thank you!

                                Good news here, too. My work has been busy and productive. Getting some projects completed that will continue to serve our SE Minnesoooooota region, the rest of southern Minnesoooota, and one that will serve all of Minnesooooota, and possibly get picked up by other states. I'm not retired yet, and I am pushing to get these things done before I retire in a few years.

                                My job is unusual, the only one like it in our state, and not a typical job in other states either. It's not a money-maker of a career, so I don't know if it will be of interest to others, but we only need one good candidate. My board members will be the decision makers, and they are not eager to tackle the task. Maybe that's a good thing in some ways, but not for the long term.

                                Kiddo finished the PhD this year! There's a job offer in the works from Nvidia .... They have been very interested in kiddo for the last several years, and they are making it very clear they want to hire. Very exciting stuff! Kiddo will be making as much or more than hubby and I combined. I love this!!!!

                                  I don't miss the barnburners. I like the pleasant ones. Not patient enough any more to deal with the barnburners.

                                        Where have you been, young lady?! You disappear for months (years?) with no word or even notice that you’re taking a bleak or leaving, and then you just roll back in here with a quick meme? You have some ‘splaining to do…

                                          I imagine it would! Actually, your job sounds really interesting to me. The older I get the more interested I get in how government and business moves. You're leaving behind something of great value to a lot of people.

                                          Phd already! And NVIDIA? Wow. Your luxurious retirement is assured!!!
