Week 156!
Y’all!!!! We have a surgery date and time!! Nigel’s hip will be replaced on Monday. His surgery will be in the afternoon so the poor guy won’t be able to eat for a long, long time! My oldest is helping me with getting him out of the house and to the surgery center. If all goes well, they’ll do one of those 23 hour thingamabobs. My daughter and youngest have checked in to see if I need anything. Right now, it’s positive thoughts, good juju, prayers, really good vibes…anything you want to send my way! As promised, I’m going to do the last two weeks as features because I missed last week. Anyway, it’s time for the Weekend Traffic Jam Reboot! I am always aiming for 9:30 pm EDT. So, on with the show, right?
As part of our new year reboot, we are now shining the spotlight on a different blogger each week. We invite you to stop by their blog, take a look around and say hello! This week, we spotlight Soma from Ink Torrents!

For some reason, I was unable to copy what Soma has to say about herself, so I’m linking her “About Me” page for you here.

Want to know more about us…
