Well, I no longer have a problem. It's about hosting the contests and it's been solved.

As many of you know, I have lung cancer, and it looks like my surgery will be scheduled for early March. The date has not been chosen yet, but it should be chosen in the next week or so.

The problem is that I had signed up to run the March contest. That cannot happen; I'll be in the hospital for maybe 4 or 5 days and then I will go home for more recuperation.

So we need a volunteer for March. But that's not all.

I also signed up to run the May contest, which should not be a problem for me. But April needs a volunteer also.

So we need 2 volunteers to run March and April.

I'm sorry for the late announcement.

For anyone who might be interested, I do have some guidelines available to explain the hosting process. And I will stand by, as I can, for anyone who has questions.

Let me know, OK?

that we should skip the March contest because it is supposed to be the Seasonal one for Winter. Our contest this month with the theme "Baby, it's cold outside" really stands in nicely for the Winter contest.

Let's skip March. I'll do April.

And you need not worry about contests. Just kick the butt of that cancer, ok?
