my thanks

to mamaT for keeping this site's home fires burning. i've been dealing with a nasty upper respiratory infection and my doctor refused to prescribe anything with any oomph to it and in the end, i'm stuck with OTC antihistamines.
i'm on the mend, yet have about a week's worth of purgatory time ... er, chores ... to catch up on, but i'm still here. i won't go down without a fight. as shirley maclaine says in postcards from the edge, "never let 'em see you sweat. or was it @ss -- never let them see your @ss?"
i blame the antihistamines.
