Cause I adore JP and she has a huge heart. I think we all adore JP! She is the Princess Overseer of this thread really. She keeps everyone involved and active in TM.

By the way, Quix. I was thinking of you yesterday afternoon as I sat in the oral surgeon's chair waiting for the novacaine to kick in. As it did, I started feeling giddy, don't know why because it was not sweet air, just the novacaine needles. I guess I was so excited to be finally taking care of a problem tooth and that caused the giddiness. Anyway, I was laying almost completely prone and feeling lightheaded while I waited for the doc to come back in the room, when all of a sudden I started thinking of the exclamation, "Whee!" I repeated it a few times silently, smiling, and thinking of your many posts here that ended with that exclamation!

OH WHEEEEEEE! LOL!

Agreed.

As to dentists . . . am still praying . . . God said he'd fix or provide money to fix my teeth. Now several are chiped, pieces broken off etc. . . . so . . . that's another

OH WHEEEEEE area of my life!

Was standing next to a fellow in the sound booth once during a visiting evangelist's service. This particular evangelist--don't remember his name--was known for God healing people's teeth during his ministry.

He said, he personally did NOT know why God didn't often just give people new teeth. He didn't know why some got gold and some silver and some porcelin. I think he did say once that someone had a gold tooth substance analyzed and it was very special, somehow.

Anyway--he just said that God was going to be moving through the auditorium where people were. No line up front or anything. And that if you felt a sudden warmth or heat in your mouth, to go to the bathroom and see what God had done.

Well, this fellow next to me in the sound booth suddenly felt a warmth in his mouth. He didn't even know he needed a filling. He went to the bathroom and there was a bright new filling where there hadn't been at the beginning of the service.

Wheeeeeee!

God didn't do anything miraculous for the mess in my mouth then or since!

Ah well. He's The Boss.

Thanks for your encouaging, fun note!

YES, I can see her as a Princess Overseer.

However, I also think she functions as quite a bit of a Mother Superior or at least a Queen.

She can kick arse and take names with the best of them! LOL.

And she's certainly nurturing, protective, assertive and fiercely productive and helpful to the thread and all the faithful on it. Guess I'm saying I see her as a lot more of a heavy duty trooper than my image of a Princess. Perhaps a Queen Esther sort of person. Though I think of her as more assertive even than that! LOL.

Anyway--I may be getting ridiculous and should go to bed.

When I first met my step-sisters after my dad's new marriage, I was down visiting their house in Phoenix. And my step-sister was in high school while I was at college at NAU in Flagstaff.

My step-sister was a ruthless, relentless, almost abusive tease. Finally after a couple of hours of such, I started to fight back or at least take up for myself. After getting only one or two good retorts thrown back at her, she said:

"[Quixbird], You're getting ridiculous, you'd better go to bed."

She wasn't about to tollerate a fraction of what she dished out! LOL.

So it became a kind of family idiom.

Anyway--I probably am getting ridiculous and I probably should go to bed!

LUB,
