Just checking in again to let everyone know I'm still among the living. Still not exactly back to normal on my end but hope to get there soon.

We obviously share that hope here.

Just a quick comment in response to say that I appreciate the comments of concern I have received here and on social media. As I said, I am doing okay but still in the process of dealing the issues that made this abrupt and unintended absence necessary.

I’ll try to get back into the swing of things soon.

Absolute best of wishes.

I know it’s weird and odd and goofy, but people who have never met you care about you and want you to keep doing what you do. Stay strong and heal well.
