Thank you very much, my dear Tania! You are as lovely as always; To have such a friend as you, I am fortunate. I hope your beautiful children are doing well and are healthy. Are you still in Kharkov?

When a person works long hours for a long time, they are not able to do much traveling. Told my boss I work to live, not live to work. Must take a vacation and get out and see the world...this summer! Trying to decide for how long to come and what to do. A friend of mine would like me to meet him there and take some time to help him repair houses of older people in the Donbass. While I know ladies need lots of hugs, so do older people; they also need their windows caulked and repairs on their homes. Will be nice to come fix houses, play some music, see some sights and meet someone; have been practicing and playing a little! Maybe even playing a little better these days...   Have some big computer projects I must finish up and then I am taking some time off!
