Lori, so sorry to hear about your grandmother. I know she was sick for a long time but that doesn't make it any easier. You have lots of good memories of her. Try to focus on those and keep her close in your heart.
Veg, sorry you got the nasties. Hope you're feeling well soon. BTW the spell check button is in the top right corner of the page when you are typing.
Kathy, I'm despairing of Spring ever coming! I think we're stuck in the Winter loop.
