I have the feeling it's a job you can enjoy, thought was it Mark Twain who said the definition of work is it's something you don't want to do so people have to pay you to do it?- kinda garbled message I'm makng but my point is it still might be hard work for not-enough-pay but as those things go it's a good one... I'm very happy for you!!Laura Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06529766051109192382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-14236404398152667912014-09-26T10:33:56.822-05:002014-09-26T10:33:56.822-05:00Thanks, Michael, Krista, and Deanna:
