I am still recovering from my second knee replacement in April. The recovery is going well but seems to be going more slowly than the first knee last summer. My wife is still an invalid. At this time, she is not walking and using a wheelchair. She is still getting physical therapy so there is some hope for her to gain mobility in the future. I would still like to do more videotaping but this is looking less and less likely. Things could be a lot worse – no life-threatening issues that we know of for any of us. I still plan on selling existing DVDs for another year or two as long as customers still want them. We won’t make much if any money on them anymore but fortunately we don’t need to. Still enjoying the grandkids – a freshman granddaughter in Illinois was a starter on the basketball team last winter and she will be playing volleyball this fall. I hope to be able to get out there this fall to see her play and her brother play football. The great grandkids are starting to arrive. A great grandson was born in Illinois in March and we also have a step great grandson. Three granddaughters are engaged and one of them is pregnant. We hope that all of you are safe and sound. Our next newsletter will be in December of 2025.
