Tempus really fugits!
It's April 23 again! A year ago - almost to the hour - I was boarding a plane in Huston, TX to fly to Gatwick, UK. After living for more than half my life up to that time in the US the justice department finally got tired of trying to untangle my messy immigration situation and hoisted me out'a there. There was a little matter of five months (or so) of being bounced through a series of megalithic detention centers and seedy small-town jails, while the powers-that-be scratched their heads and other parts of their anatomy trying to decide how to 'dispose' of me. I'm still bothered by the balance problem I picked up during that episode, but all things considered things are going tolerably well for me. Since I've been back in Blighty I've found, or been found by, a slew of family members I wasn't aware of before from both sides of 'the pond', and even some in Oz and NZ. Imagine that! Now I get to enjoy spring and summer again in beautiful Norfolk; maybe I'll do a little boating this time. Ho-hum.

Curioser and curioser...
Do you ever just find yourself scratching your head and wondering What-the-(expletive deleted)! That's been happening to me quite a bit lately. I don't attribute it to senile dementia... a concern nevertheless, but more to the veritable torrent of long lost family members quite suddenly coming at me from cyberspace. I've otherwise been busy working on my 'Jacket Woman' project-- about my great grand aunt Martha, and it seems a bit uncanny that these other family related events are happening. I should say that I'm delighted, and not a little nonplussed, (now there's a word). Should I be worried..? I ask myself.

Long time no blog...
Hi again from a wintry Norwich, UK. As one who has fine-tuned procrastination into something approaching an art-form I might say, in my own defense, that I have added some photos and a couple of video links to my site. Since last April I've been steadily re-acclimating to England and now feel perfectly 'at home'. I need to mention how very grateful I am for the help and support of local church friends and from the City Of Norwich. The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter-day Saints, known too as the LDS or Mormon Church, is a worthy and noble thing, and I heartily recommend anyone to investigate it. There are 'wild-west-stories' about the church and its members which are still commonly told, but a little personal investigation generally settles the most skeptical of minds.

New stuff! (Imagine that!)
I'm starting a new bit of my site today; it's behind the 'Profile' tag. In time more will be revealed therein. Ho-hum.

Listen up, somnambulent gastronomes!
If anyone wants to have vivid and bizarre dreams, try eating a whole strawberry trifle before going to bed... Works for me! Cheese is another good one; but either one could give you a hangover in the morning.
