I was extremely touched to receive this "You make my day" award from my blogging friend girasoli. I have been going through a very difficult time lately and this award was a real boost to my spirit. Thanks!!

I want to send this award back to girasoli, and forward to AnnieNC and chiocciola, all of whom have made my day many times over the past two-three months with comments of encouragement and concern. (Not to mention providing much needed distraction with their interesting blog posts!)

Hi Anne, I'm so sorry to hear this news about your brother-in-law. I've been thinking about you and your family and send lots of sympathy to your sister and you and everyone else.
Last year we sang some of those "old-timey" hymns at my grandmother's funeral and they were really comforting, in a way. The healing power of music, maybe?
Take care....we've missed you in our little blog world. And thanks so much for the flowers!
