Excuse this use of the listserv for a message to Stan, but I don't think I'm reaching his e-mail. Stan--I sent a message on April 9 re all the good writing news...must have sent it in my sleep because I said something like "let me know if you get this." I didn't hear but didn't resend. When I saw your test message it jogged my memory and I sent a quick message over the weekend. Am I getting through? Bummer of a summer, just when you were flush with the writing--@$##%$@#@ is all I can say. Will keep you in our prayers and hope the back surgery goes well--what do they do for herniated discs? (I have two that are deteriorating and give me big problems sometimes; that's why I ask.) Hope you can solve your computer problems soon and that it doesn't affect using the word processing program--though it doesn't sound like you've had time to do much writing with your moving (2x in a year qualifies you for sainthood), wedding and medical problems. Let me know when you can if you are receiving personal e-mail. Kathy Kunz [log in to unmask] (switched from aol) [log in to unmask]
