Friday the Crapteenth

It Says So Right Here On The Calendar.

My dear mom (and fellow white-glove inspector) was taken to the hospital unexpectedly Wednesday morning and I've barely touched a computer since then, which is why I wasn't able to make my usual post yesterday. I missed "seeing" you all!

In the meantime, however, my great buddy Ann over at Ann's Rants was kind enough to include an early post of mine in her "Great Posts You Probably Missed (Except You, Mom)" party. There's all kinds of good stuff over at Ann's place - as always. (Ann rocks.)

Things will be back on track here shortly...thanks for understanding and hope all is glazed doughnuts in your world.

    Hi Anna,
    Your mom is my husband Jim's aunt - (Jim Wages). We correspond all the time with Carmella and did not know she had been in the hospital. I haven't heard from her in several weeks. When I read your blog ( she gave me your blogger link a couple of months ago) I was concerned. I hope she is doing better. Give her our love. Anita and Jim Wages
