Update

[Daniela2016]

Some might have noticed, I have not contributed much in the last 2-3 weeks, and just want to reassure anyone who cares that I am OK.  783 DOFs and counting, health about the same, work overwhelming at times, and taking care of mom with no time away from her (but 4 days in the last 4 years), are all taking a toll on me.  All I want to do once I am done working is watch mindless TV, after of course I fixed dinner, and lunches for the next day, and took care of all mom's needs. 

We are leaving for Romania on the 19th, and all I am hearing from home are bad news: everybody is sick, dying or died, the house is falling apart, need to take mom for a new hearing aid (because of course is way less expensive than it is here).  Can't wait for June 2nd when we get back home in Phoenix. 

But for the time being I feel not inspired or worth inspiring anyone.

I stop by from time to time, and comment when I can, I am happy for the group getting ready for the cruise, and wish you all a wonderful time.

Hibiscus are blooming beautifully at our home, and a couple of days ago, the jasmine is also catching up, and smelling beautifully.

If I can't be of much help, I'll at least share some nice pics
