{Halloween Dances}

Hi yes, still alive and breathing here.
I had 2 throat surgeries in July and complications from that.. scar tissue, infection, bleeding out and nearly dying, not being able to eat for 3 weeks and pneumonia!
Then busy with nursing job, pharmacy studies, American Red Cross work and subsequently moving to new Naval Hospital, sewing/crocheting and swing dancing!
Well, it's said there ain't no rest for the wicked...
