The Doldrums I hate this time of year. Cold, snowy (for the first time in years, there's a foot of snow on the ground) and depressing. Cannot seem to motivate myself to do squat. What has happened since I last posted: 1. Been diagnosed with GI cancer. Had surgery X 3. Claim they got it all. We shall see. 2. Been diagnosed with Macular Degenration. Great - if the cancer doesn't get me, I'll go blind. 3. I lost one of my younger brothers. He passed from a stroke - due to an excess of alcohol and weed. I sometimes wonder if that was his version of suicide. 4. Cannot seem to find my motivation to do ANYTHING creative. I just want to hibernate. Maybe I'm part bear? Hopefully things improve soon.

Foot of snow. Central Indiana.

My brother that passed is the one of the left. John was 2 and half years younger than me.

Can I do this - PLEASE? Sorry about the formatting. Haven't done this in years and I cannot seem to remember HOW...
