I like it that the little happy men are the same color as your lovely sweater...it's so they can come incognito, isn't it! This website keeps arthritis from creeping in, doesn't add calories, expands one's mind, and above all... adds to the list of friends... |

All of the above are true, Karilea except it also burns calories... I type like a maniac! At least I can still do SOMETHING fast like a true chipmunk. I never noticed that they were the color of my sweater...before... well, I guess they are. Thanks so much for your reply!  ~ lots of hugs from the chipmunk with the flying pawsLyra |

Thanks so much for your reply, Dawn... Its a wonderful addiction though... I think it probably saves more lives than it takes but it takes more time than it saves. ~ hugs from similarly addicted rodentLyra |

Sue... I KNOW you are addicted... I think your computer means much more than it should to you...and of course to me and also to just about everyone else at this site. Oh my goodness... what did we ever do before there were PC's and before there was an internet? ~ hugs from a very addicted rodentLyra |

Lyra, My eyes locked on to your repose and now I have been exposed Yes, yes is there no cure? The tippy tap is spreading for sure The clickity clacking is tickling my brain all of your words are a singing refrain The phases keep coming like leaves to a breeze I see that it's spreading, this website's disease Hugs, Electra  |

Electra... I think I remember one thing we did... Do you have a vague memory of about a year ago when we were trying to keep that stupid research park away from our neighborhood? I wish we had been here then, so we wouldn't have wasted our time doing that stuff... don't you?  ~ hugs from chipmunk not fighting city hall anymoreLyra |

Lyra, I learned alot. Both good and bad. I learned to value my time and to choose wisely as to how I should spend it. But, most importantly, if not for that whole excerise I would not have met you! That is what made it all worthwhile. Joanna is gone, her precious energy wasted. She was a very dedicated woman and for that I am humbled. I think of her when I think of the BTR, her efforts will live on in the lessons I have learned from her. Now, let us look ahead. With tender hugs, Electra |

How can any of us ever forget Joanna... She literally gave her life to save the neighborhood...so sad  But new friendships are sometimes formed under the oddest of circumstance... and I am happy that it brought us together... I hope you have pleasant dreams tonight, Electra... I'm sorry I reminded you of the BTR fight.  ~ hugs and dreams (sweet ones)Lyra |

Lyra- You've got me smiling big with this one. I know this addiction all too well, and there's just no beating it. I can stop for a little while, but then I fall off the wagon again, and I'm right back at it..LOL. I'm just loving this fun write. Hugs, ~Vicky "...until you have read the verse on his heart, |
