Christmas was great except for the record snowstorm and blizzard for here. Oklahoma is not as prepared as Washington where I grew up to handle this stuff. We are still in debt over spending too much and I got scammed a litle on the in ternet and I urge everyone to beware. I thought I was very careful but still had to dig out some. If it sounds too good to be true it is false. I still work in a Family practice office in a suburb of OKC still a 70 mile commut e. I'm glad I only do it once a day and 4 days a week. Linda is doing well and gets to babysit 2 days per week and so far tht is tolerable and enjoyable. sometimes she is too available and gets called on at the last moment to become the sitt er. She is a delight but we don't want to raise her if possible. We will go to my college reunion later this spring and I am looking forward to all but the airplane adventure. Chu rch is a big part of our lives and we rarely miss s I know that the mercy of God is why I am still here and I want t o serve Him more and learn as much as I can. Everybody have a wondefulNew Year. Jim and Linda
