I have tried many times over the years to get back into this blog and it just now works! Here's to 2025. A few things have happened in the past "few" years. my father passed away in 2020 due to complications from Covid. My son is now married and I haven't almost 2 year-old grandchild. Emma works at Alabama oncology resource lab as the lab supervisor. I retired from my job of 21 years in December 2024. Todd and I have visited Ireland, Rome, Paris, Italy with a trip up to the Swiss Alps on a train. Our latest adventure was to Scotland.
