    Well, we finally go for our surgery tomorrow on my stomach. I have to have an umbilical hernia repaired. It's minor surgery, outpatient and all, but anytime they have to cut on you it isn't pleasent. I will be down for about a week or so, and I don't know if I will be able to post. Prayers and kind thoughts will be apreciated. Thanks so much for your continued support of this old man! God Bless all, and I'll try to post after the surgery to let you know how it went.

    Vermeer’s The Milkmaid

    She has not had a life that’s been easy,
    See how the work has leant strength to that arm.
    Her features are strong but perhaps not really pretty,

    BONJOUR! COMMENT-ALLEZ-VOUS!

    Sorry. It's just that everybody here speaks French and it's so annoying. Especially to non-French speakers.

Wondering if they're insulting you right there, to your face. It's so bloody annoying!

    Anyway, I have awesome pictures. And I can't wait to post
