It's not like it has been, bw2, and I'm trying to protect it some too. I worked more than 15 min and it's a huge improvement to the garage. Tomorrow I need to get to Habitat and the pet shelter with donations, and also return two large bowls to a friend who runs a restaurant. I also made an appt for a manicure tomorrow.
Kathryn, I do love the family stories. Some you do find out aren't true - there was a story in my family that my gr gr grandmother, whose given name was "Texas" had gone to Oregon in a covered wagon and came back. I just don't think it's true, but I do know that her father was in the U. S. army at Fort Laramie, Dakota territory which was on the Oregon trail. And that may be where the family story originated. A lot of times there is an element of truth, it's just finding it.
At my mother's house over the weekend I found the "funeral book" for my grandfather's funeral in 1966. I'm having fun identifying some of the names.
