I just let the person talk me into them. They must be fashionable. Though, I can't imagine why. :) I'll go tomorrow and pick up something more, like Gracie glasses :)
I better go get some supplies to do some painting.


Hugs!

I got this in the email today.

Subject: FW: Telephone poll......


The latest telephone poll taken by the office of the Governor of Texas asked whether people who live in Texas think illegal immigration is a serious problem:

35% of respondents answered: "Yes, it is a serious problem."

65% of respondents answered: "No es una problema serio."
