Good, good, I thought you must know, at your age <tee-hee, too> but you know
how young folks are. ;-)

Yes, I know I'm terrible. I guess it's a combination of OCD and dealing with
DD (ignorant as two-year olds are), DH (who likes to play stupid if he
doesn't like a task [it never helped him so far with me, teehee]), and DM
(who needs detailed instructions on everything more complicated than a
toaster). I only meant well (but that's very often the opposite of well
done, as I remember now).

Still here, just not posting because of all the spam and because of my
last minute crunch time work. The county fair is the 11th-15th and
the children and I both have entries to finish up. Then I have to get
them ready for school (only 12 more days!!!) and I have to get to work
on things for my MOPs group (I'm head of discussion groups for the
fall, at least) and things made for my business - clearancing LOTS of
inventory and making some new items to sell.
But...I'm here and check at least once a day to see if there are any
messages other than the spam...yes, I use Goggle and am trying to get
hubby to let me use a new browser....it's the family laptop and every
time I've tried something new, it's gotten all emotional and refused
to work....oh well.
