Hi Anne!

 AM> Hmmm I guess that *is* right as well. <  But it's really hard to

Isn't that great, you have an *excuse*!  hehehe!

Maybe, but don't count on it if you are like us.  Tom's lived
in this house since August of 1983 and still has unpacked boxes
in the garage!    Of course I keep nagging at him to
take them to the Salvation Army, as if he hasn't needed the
stuff in them in 13 1/2 years, he never will, but you know how
far you get with a man on a subject like that, right?
I remember those discussions and the memory comes in handy when
he starts nagging about getting rid of some of these crafting
supplies I haven't gotten around to using yet--hehehe!  So his
boxes have come in handy after all...
 
 AM> somewhere alone! <  I can't hop into ANY car, let alone do it by

 AM> October (wheels) that makes it so I can't do it.  If my left leg would

My mother had both knee joints and one kneecap replaced, one
at a time, and now she walks without limping for the first
time in over 35 years, so your time will come, I'm sure!
In the meantime, though, keep crafting!    
 AM> have a clutch to deal with, and I don't know how long I'll have to wait
 AM> to be able to drive with a clutch again :( 
Tom and I have already decided we have enough foot trouble in
between the two of us that the next car will have to be an
automatic, but I sure hate to do that.  We've loved having
our Dodge Omni with the standard transmission--it's a 1988,
and been so good that we can only hope whatever we get next
will be as easy to train to turn automatically into the parking
lot at Hobby Lobby as this one was!    Oh well, I will be
the one hoping that.  Tom wishes I'd never found HL!
 AM> Hmmmm.  I never really could get into plastic canvass <
I did the needlepoint on regular canvas in the 70's and just
sort of graduated to pc. 
 WB> ... I'd be clothed and in my right mind if I could find either.
 AM> Consider it assimilated 
OK, I have relocated quite a few to my files in my time, so go
for it!    I stole it from Wally Brown...he's got some good
ones!
