apologies…

I haven’t had a chance to sift through your comments and emails today— my father-in-law was admitted to the hospital this morning and I’m currently writing this message from the waiting room. We’ll be here for a few days while he’s being monitored, so posting tomorrow may be minimal.

I’ll do my best to get the mag out Wednesday as promised [free WiFi in the hospital], but I know you’ll understand if I’m late on this one.

If you pray, I’d love for you to send a few up for my Papa Bill. I love him dearly.
