I am hoping that it will be quiet. I am sure we’ll have a
few exchanges for ring sizes and such, but most of the
shopping will have been finished on Saturday.

Kathy, could you test my tune on post#63? I think I have
a problem. Could be an issue tomorrow night. Thanks! It wouldn’t
play for Ms. B. *sigh*

Thanks, Kathy. Saw it and appreciate it. I do already have
a “closet” there. It is going to be a possibility for sure.

“She can ask you questions and get answers. d:o)”

She gets to do that pretty often as it is. :) My parents only live a couple hours away and we see them in person at least every other week or so.

But I know Mom will still be happy to hear from me on her day.
