I have a heck of a cold and only about half of my voice. The quick change of climate was hard on me I guess. Don't worry about me Evelyn for there is really no need for it. Its what I wanted so at least that is a break. I'll do my best to take care of this old beat up body and I'm not fooling. I guess its not too beat up for I weigh a little over 175 lbs. which is plenty for me don't you think? I'm getting pretty darned sleepy, but I have a good excuse. I didn't get to bed last night until 4:30 AM and we got up at 5:15 AM. See my point? Evelyn, I really can't think of much to write about. These restrictions really bother me for it was hard to write letters before. I'll write at every opportunity, but if you don't hear from me don't worry. Bye for now. Love, Carroll
