Barb, ... and I've been missing the softly falling snow, the ice skaters, the sleigh bells, making Christmas angels in the snow, cutting down a real Christmas tree, having egg nog in front of a roaring fire, and all the Christmas ambiance!! We do tend to remember the positive things.
Thanks for the wake-up call! Actually, the fact that I have company coming from Canada to spend Christmas here in TV (for the second year) should remind me that TV is a WONDERFUL place to spend Christmas.
Hope your health issues are minor and you'll be back with us in TV soon. Best wishes for 2009 and for radiant good health.
