   Good for you and Ingrid. Laughter is always the best medicine, except, alcohol, (I’ve been told), is a cure-all for every pain. I think I’ll stick with my green and black teas. They really are amazing and a cure-all, if you squeeze one fresh whole orange into 2 cups of tea. Also, I love to dance. Drinking tea and dancing. My two favorite ways to enjoy the small moments. I let the big moments take care of themselves. Life is so simple. Why do we insist in making it hard. Happy Easter, dear ones.

     Hi Elizabeth, thank you for the warm wishes… much appreciated. We’re both recovering from minor colds we got in California, but nothing major. So lots of tea for us. 😉 See you soon. Mark

   Happy Easter! I took a little break from writing my novel to read “Killing Jesus” by O’Reilly and Dugard in the context of Passover and Easter. I was as impressed by what the book said as what it left out relative to the New Testament. I was grateful too of what the world became as we live it today compared with what it was in the time of Jesus. Now, back to writing my novel. The characters want to get to Rio and I have to type not to get them there. Share eating a chocolate rabbit for fun!

     Hi Joel, we’re back from house hunting and both came home with a cold. Realized yesterday that we didn’t have any eggs or chocolate. Oh well. Plenty of Nyquil though. Haven’t read “Killing Jesus” but will get to it eventually. Have a great week and enjoy Rio. 🙂 Mark

     Hi Juanita, I took a look right when you sent this and it was working fine. Try it again and let me know. Might have been temporary or maybe it’s something with your computer, tablet, phone? And have a great weekend! Mark

   Hi Mark, Happy Birthday and I have to say, you are 44 years old, that means the really, really good years are to come, see your life till now just as an apprenticeship, age can be so liberating. I am on my home stretch with ‘Lifting the Veil’, which you would put under ‘Alternate History Fiction Genre’, but for me its Sci-Fi, and I feel I have grown roots under my desk, but writing itself is the thrill and I enjoy every panicky second as the story unfolds in front of me. yours, Alexandra

     Hi Alexandra, very true. It’s a good time in life. I have enough things figured out that all of life is no longer a mystery. But I still have a lot to learn. Glad to hear you’re making progress on your work and seemingly enjoying the journey as much as the thought of the final destination. Love and light to you and yours this weekend. Mark

   Been under the weather lately with my daughter in the hospital. My entire life is on hold until Christine gets better. I am trying to manage this small acreage by myself, horse, cats, dog, and garden and flowers, whatever. There has to be a book somewhere in there, but I’m way to busy to think of anything but getting back to ‘normal’. Your life seems so much fun that I must admit, I’m envious. Love your videos. Working on my questionnaire when I’m able. Happy 44th. Enjoy life-only comes once.

     Hi Elizabeth, no worries. Do what you need to do to take care of your family and the rest of your life. And yes, my life is definitely fun… but also a lot of tedious work. It’s not all parties and celebrations. 😉 Be well and see you when I see you. I’m not going anywhere, except to California, but you know what I mean! Warm wishes. Mark

     Hi Lisa, well that’s going above and beyond. 😉 But that’s who you are and why I love you. So thank you. Have a wonderful weekend. And here’s to prosperity, love, and laughter for both of us this year! Mark
