Good morning everyone

[Iowa Granny]

Fantastic thread this morning, Billie. It was awfully slow to load, the curse of rural landline connections. So glad I got to see it before it gets so loaded up that I can't endure the wait to see it.

Have a fine day. And thanx to you for all you do.

Billie, once I stop tearing up and can see the computer more clearly again, I want another look! I was fine until I got to the "Angels" part....brought back memories of my Cookie and Ralph.

You did a SUPERB job....THANK-YOU!!!!! I know it was a "labor of love."

Sistahs: {{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}

loddie: I'll be at that very Boca Raton spot on Saturday. We're leaving Atlanta by car in 3 days, 16 hours and 43 minutes!

MnM: Did you hear from Ming?

Everyone: Thank-you for your get-well wishes. I'm going to slink back to w-o-r-k, prop myself up and try to get some things done before I go home to FL on Saturday.

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} to you all - St.Louie1 - yours did the trick yesterday! :-)
