Talking to the Dead by Helen Dunmore

We're back in Vienna. (We were in Geneva for three years, but have been back for about 6 years now.) Jerry just retired. Frank is married with a 2-year-old son,living in the Northern wilds of Maine. Edward is living in Florida. Steven is still in school.

I've had some major health issues in the past few years, and do as little travelling as possible. I miss the shows at Allie Pallie. The needlework shops in Vienna have gotten even worse. Most have closed either while we were in Geneva or since. I have sterted doing a certain amount of quilting - the materials are more available. Actually the quilting store I use carries the special DMC threads (linen!) and some of Jean Oliver's. That also feels like a blast from the past, and I love having some of her threads to play with.

How are you people doing?

From the list of books we have in common, I keep wondering if you are the Gill who used to be on Compuserve.
