Yikes!  I feel badly that I have not responded to so many adds and messages, but in the last five months I have sold my house (and took a beating on the price due to town government red tape), been a house guest -- usually without computer -- at my sister's place while searching for a new, affordable home, took a couple weeks away from winter in the Philippines, finally found a decent place I can afford and am now waiting to hear whether I am going to be the new owner or not.

As of this writing, I have 10,011 images to look at.  I have 420 watchers (hmm, 420?) who probably think I'll never draw again.  And I still have a lot to do.  I have to navigate through the immigration paperwork to bring my honey to the USA from the island nation mentioned above.  I have to move all my earthly belongings from storage into the new house about 30 miles away.  Plus, I need surgery on my hand, although not my drawing hand, assuming I have any right to call it that.  When I see some of the beautiful work posted here, I wonder if it's too late to develop any actual skill.  Just because my ideas are juvenile doesn't mean the images have to look like it!

See y'all in a while.
