is our doubts of today.”

We had a lovely trip to the North Texas area late in October for
the wedding of a Great-Grandson to his preacher's daughter. We were
home by the end of the first week of November to dscover the new
dilemma.
Still experiencing difficulty (make that impossibility) when
we attempt including pictures. Our webmaster is the one to solve such
problems, and will have a solution. Meanwhile not all the pics chosen
for publishing are being done. Check out the column by Mike Craner , who
becomes a jolly Santa during Christmas season.
Marilyn Carnell talks about refreshing one of her crafting
hobbies in January's "Sifoddling Along" column. Thomas F. O'Neill
greets everyone in a cheery New Year exuberance in "Introspective."
Mattie Lennon's column "Irish Eyes" as an avid
reader-reviewer himself urges that his choices be included with your
own. His column "Irish Eyes" expounds on the author of Tales of A Patchwork Life, Brighid McLaughlin. Pauline Evanosky discloses "Aspects of My Psychic Life" in her column "Woo Woo."
Judith Kroll's column "On Trek" repeats her discussion about
"waking up" to what is controlling your life. "Armchair Genealogy" by
columnist Melinda Cohenour has a few updates on the use of investigative
forensics using DNA. "Cooking with Rod's Family" presents granddaughter
Erin's recipes this issue.
John I. Blair's new poem this month, "Sometimes" is a
loving, sentimental remembrance of Clara, his late wife. Two of his
favorite poems "Looking for Spring" and "Step by Step" appear as
encores. Walt Perryman's poems are "Merry Christmas - Tree?",
"Christmas Eve in Texas," "'Tis The Day After Christmas," and "Wishing
Everyone A Happy New Year." Bud Lemire's poems are "Building a
Playlist," "Looking back on The Year," and "Martha & Mike." Bruce
Clifford's two poems for us are "Engraved in My Mind" and "Free from
This."
As always we continue to rely on our co-founder and webmaster
Mike Craner. With this eZine looking forward to the February issue
which begins Volume 28 online, he is the one we trust for our status
quo. Thank you, Mike, for all you accomplish. I shall continue to
place our confidence in him as we have in the past.
