I’m sorry to hear about SO, **tarra**.  
Disaster (no matter the type) on Easter reminds me that 5 years ago on Easter, it rained like [del]a mother[/del] hell and we ended up with massive water damage to the DR (ceiling and one outer wall)–all due to a few shingles that had blown off. :eek: Upside is that we (finally) got the new kitchen (insurance paid for the DR, but it’s cheaper to pay a plasterer for 2 rooms than for one–who knew?).

It’s raining like [del] a mother[/del] hell right now as well. Eek.  
Thanks for the link, **Rosie** –I dint know abott dat site. (I’m practicing my Jer–excuse me–Joisey–accent for kicks).

Just watched a fascinating special on PBS all about Alexander Hamilton. He was one cool dude–but fatally flawed. I do wish we had a monument to him in DC, though. And Curses Upon You, Aaron Burr!

We are moving furniture into my library tomorrow–busy day planned.

Sorry about your **SO** , **tarra**. Good thoughts and prayers for a very quick recovery.

As to your question, **rosie** … I heard it was your turn! 😃 😛

Funny LOL, BTW.

Sorry to read about your **Ben, Herbs.** I’ll keep the both of you in my thoughts.

We’ve just returned from MiL’s place. We had a nice dinner and chat, and now I’m girding myself for work tomorrow.

\*\*gt, \*\*I have AT&T too. Neither my husband or I require that kind of phone for work, so I’m not going to pay extra for the data plan. Hell, they already get close to 170 bucks a month from me as it. I know, I know, some people pay way more, but as I said before, I’m incredibly cheap.

I think I’m going to read for a bit.

{{{{ **Herbs** }}}}

**gt** , **taters** , I pay $95.00 for AT&T for my smartphone(Nokia e71x) with a data plan. Of course I have the smallest minute package, so YMMV.
