Still around!

[Rikki]

Just wanted to say, I miss you all. Things have been a bit unsettled around our "ranch" this winter. Family things: new grandbaby, wifey not working and home most of the time, and I'm still trying to work as much as I can to keep up. Plus I received the report from a doctor that none of us likes to get, the mild form of prostate cancer. (it's a "wait and see" diagnosis) Given my age and how I want to live the next 10-15 years the doc said I will probably die "with it, not from it." So we'll watch things closely.

Anyway, I hope you are all well and ready to get into your spring sundresses and flowery hats. And remember, Be safe - Be frilled!

Hi Rikki,

Sad to hear this. The NHS in the UK talks about "watchful waiting" for people your sort of age. I guess that's where you are. Not fun, whatever you do. But maybe it doesn't stop you having fun.

Good to hear from you Rikki. Sorry about your news. They are doing new things all of the time. I think it was radiation can shrink it.

Good luck and prayers for you.

Just a note to say "Hello"!

Still hanging in there through these crazy times. Wifey is under some health challenges now and home all the time. Hoping she can get better soon. As they say, "Old age ain't for wimps!"

Never any "Rikki-time" these days. But I'm on a new kick: vegetarian and no alcohol. Feel amazing, waistline feels like it's shrinking a bit, no joint aches and more energy. Hoping by Thanksgiving that I'll be looking like a new girl. Just 40-50# to go.

Anyway, hope you're all safe and well. I miss chatting with you girls. Maybe some day soon I'll find the chance. Until then,

Rikki
