Thanks for all of the replies and words of wisdom. You'll never know how much friendship means to me. It's amazing how strangers become "family". You all are wonderful and caring people. It's so unbelievable that someone let you all "get away"!

Two little boys, ages 8 and 10, were excessively mischievous. If something happened in their town, the two boys were probably involved.
The boys' mother heard that a preacher in town had been successful in disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys.
The preacher agreed, but he asked to see them individually. So the mother sent the 8 year old first, in the morning, with the older boy to see the preacher in the afternoon.
The preacher, a huge man with a booming voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, "Do you know where God is, son?" The boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there wide-eyed with his mouth hanging open.
So the preacher repeated the question in an even sterner tone, "Where is God?" Again, the boy made no attempt to answer. The preacher raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and bellowed, "Where is God?"
The boy screamed and bolted from the room, ran directly home and dove into his closet, slamming the door behind him. When his older brother found him in the closet, he asked, "What happened?"
The younger brother, gasping for breath, replied, "We are in "B I G" trouble this time," (I just LOVE reading this next line...) "GOD is missing, and they think we did it.

I second all this. Seriously. I would be lost without the support here, especially in the earlier days.
So Miss Yoyo, what kind of weather have you been getting? We had almost 70's three days in a row...cooler this weekend I think.
LS and Doc, Good ones guys! Thanks for starting my day with smile!
LWB, It has been very warm here too. It's been beautiful. It was 77 yesterday afternoon! Hard to believe that just a week ago we had 6 inches of snow! Crazy weathter! We had thunderstorms last night, but it looks like it going to be a warm sunny day today. Yay!
