She's doing great.  She fully regretted doing too much too fast after surgery, but you live and learn.   I haven't seen her since New Years (and we all live in San Antonio), but we've been trying to plan a get-together.  Now that hunting season is over - her husband was gone every weekend during hunting season, so now I think they're ready to visit.  ;)

And that's what it's all about, Paris.  I love you, too!

And, thank you Glitter.   I can't wait for the next Meet-N-Greet.  Vegas, San Antonio, wherever!  I'm definitely gonna visit MORE and gamble (lose money) LESS!
