Hey Bill, Thanks!~Misery loves company-not that I really want you to be miserable, although for some reason, it helps that you were and that you drank peculiar rug-flavored coffee. A couple of months ago I developed a crush on a car mechanic who looked like Gene Hackman, but today I only have eyes for my plumber, Burt Reynolds. He located the leak, dug it up, repaired it, wore cute little paper booties so he wouldn't track mud in the house and only charged me 106 dollars!!! I offered him fresh coffee made from the rainwater I'd collected from the flowerpot saucers outside, I volunteered to wash his jacket, I asked him to marry me, but he had the plumbing wanderlust and wouldn't stay. On the refrigerator now, in a place of honor, is the sweet magnet he gave me as a parting gift, a memento of our time together---a little plumbing truck with his phone number on it. I feel as if I just starred in my own version of Bridges of Madison County. And they say there's no romance in the life of a hausfrau.

Oh-I got so carried away with my story, I forgot to say welocme to DAR and also, do you really have six cats?

Yes, welcome 6 cats. Excuse my rudeness; yet I thot we'd seen you here . Would you like to become 11 cats? Re plumbing: MJ and I were in the living room watching TV, hearing this little ticking noise we couldn't make out. We live in a wooden house with higher ceilings, and we shut off the sound ~ still can't find it ~ seems to be coming from everywhere ~ I look up, and the glass 30's style bowl of ceiling light fixture lens is filling with wood colored water. About to overflow. And gee, it's electricity. I had to think about it for a second.
