When I post this, I should have hit 500 (it’s hard to tell until you sign off and I don’t wanna)! I have been here longer than most of the people who have 1,000 or more. So either I’m pathetic or they are (j/k!) 🙂 I guess that joke won’t bring me accolades, huh? ☹ ---

Gosh, Handy…single digits was so long ago. I don’t remember! It couldn’t have been a co-worker since I work with all women, so it must have been a customer. _shrug_ I’m going to have to use the search engine. 🙂
