   On 30 May of this year, I will have been married to my darling Froggy for 30 years - yep, count 'em; on 1 June, 1999, my darling Mom (who not only taught me how to knit in 1956, but also taught me a ton about life) left this earth - she was gracious and kind enough to wait until a day or two after what was and is a true celebration of our happiness ... but from now on, I will celebrate my marriage and then have to turn around and mourn her death ...  tough noogies, we all say, but, that's life!

Happy Memorial Day to all, whether you call it that or not -
