Hi AGAIN Patty,

Well, by now you can see how scattered my= mind is=20 this summer...I'm making yet another addition to my bio. This one is very=20 important...I had to add the Bards! I can't believe I forgot to add them. I=20 could give all kinds of excuses like the death of one of my good friends (a= nd=20 the work I'm doing as her Power of Attorney), the illnesses of one of my=20 daughters and of my dad, the moving out of our family home in Oxford (and t= he=20 moving of our daughters into a smaller home), etc., etc., etc., but I=20 won't.

Anyway, I added in the Bards, and then--n= oticing=20 how huge the bio had gotten--I've added a shorter version underneath. If yo= u=20 like, you can take the shorter version and use it as is, or you can add bit= s=20 back in that you think are important or that you have room for....

I think that's it!

Best,

Karen
