Today’s Thoughts
It’s fairly cloudy
today, but no precipitation in the forecast. These clouds usually bring some
snow here in January.

I talked to my
brother this morning, Micho is doing good and will soon have radiation
treatments every other day for a month. Richard is getting ready so he can stay
in Guadalajara for the treatments.
