Blog postOn November 11, I had total bi-lateral knee arthroplasties. Both knees are doing well. I was in hospital two nights. Then, my wonderful husband, Glenn, took me home.

It's been a month, and recovery is proceeding as expected. I still hurt some, but I'm diligent with the physical therapy. I'm walking well with a cane. By Christmas, I m4 months ago Read more -

Blog postI'm happy!
Audiobook Creation with Kim Black and Betty M Reeves was attended by fifteen people. It went well and without a hitch. We stepped through the process of turning our books into audiobooks. Kim spoke as an author who hires a producer for her titles, and I spoke as an author who produces my own titles.
Kim, you are a very special friend and author. Thank you, for the privilege of presenting a program with you.
It was fun!8 months ago Read more -
