I've spent so much time at work lately, my dear husband says he doesn't
|
|
recognize me anymore! I'm hoping once this issue is up, the May issue of
|
|
<I>Linux Journal</I> is gone to layout, and Linux World is in the past, I
|
|
might have some time again to spend with Riley and other family members. My
|
|
daughter Shannon is coming to visit on March 11 and I am looking forward to
|
|
that.
|
|
<P>
|
|
I will be at Linux World on March 2 and 3. Hope to meet you there!
|
|
<P>
|
|
Have fun!
