Thank you to all of you who have visited my blog in my absence.  I have been struggling to reclaim my computer from a very nasty Trojan virus.  In the 12+ years I have had a computer this is the first infection I have had to deal with — and what a doozy!  With my son’s much appreciated long distance assistance I can at least, for the moment, write a word or two here.  We have done every malware and virus scan we can, but I don’t think the virus is off of this computer, and I do not have the funds to take this gizmo anywhere to get it fixed.  Please know I will be back as soon as possible!  At the moment I am waiting for the nasty window to pop up from the virus that gives a 60 second count for me to go purchase something from their site! Yeah, like I am going to do that!  It disguises itself as AVG virus protection software, and disables the REAL AVG.  So, all for now, folks!  I wish you all WELL!
