Hope she's ok. The last I heard was that her son had decided to come back out and join them after all. Perhaps she's too busy these days!
BTW Have to tell you that I love reading your posts (mostly!) they make me laugh and you seem so chilled out that I'm sure Canada has been good to you!

... well old habits die hard... I'm off to go spray paint a t-shirt on!

Yes, I'd say the savage beast within who had to wait two long tiring frustrating years has been calmed by the chilled out BC vibes. Guess it was all meant to be, karma-like.

So you're saying I spent needless hours on my resume when all I needed to do was buy another Wonderbra for my ample bosom?
I suddenly feel so much more employable now.
