Just wanted to say to everyone to have a Happy Thanksgiving. I am feeling better since this morning. After I posted I cleaned like crazy. For the first time I am beginning to feel my ole self come back. Sense of humor and all. Still nervous in the belly. Lost weight since all this began. I ran across a joke today and laughed for the first time,<P>A man was sitting at a bar after work (sound<BR>familiar) when an exceptionally gorgeous young woman entered. The man could not take his eyes off her. The young woman noticed his overly attentive stare and walked toward him.<P>Before he could offer his apologies for being so rude, the young woman said to him, "I'll do anything that you want me to do, for $100 on one condition."<P>Flabbergasted, the man asked what the condition was.<P>The youn woman replied, "You have to tell me what you want me to do in just three words."<P>The man thought for a moment, withdrew his wallet and slowly counted out five $20 bills, which he pressed into her hand.<P>He looked deeply into her eyes and slowly, meaningfully said,"Paint my house."<P>Wish H had said that instead. <P>Yes, I am Crazy......Again, Have a Happy Thanksgiving and God Bless you all.

Devastated2-<P>Thank you for making me laugh! That was a funny little story/joke you told.<P>As I'm sure you are aware, these holiday times are harder than most when you have gone through a major earthquake like what most of us have been through that frequent this site.<P>Best to you and thanks for the grins...we all need them!<P>mr rlk

Hi devastated2,<P>thanks for the laugh. I also wish H had said/done that.<P>I feel shades of the old Joey coming back too - isn't it a wonderful feeling. This ar#$%hole isn't going to keep me down for long. <BR>Keep cleaning, although I will share something with you that we should be mindful of.<P> A WOMAN WITH A SPOTLESS HOUSE IS A VERY DULL WOMAN INDEED. !!!<P>Just keep a few dust bunnies around !! My house is spotless, but I have a mountain of laundry to fold and iron and put away. I don't bother looking in drawers or wardrobes any more, I just go to the washing baskets...<P>Have a lovely holiday<P>Jo

Starting Thanksgiving morning w/ a smile.<P>Thanks a lot!!!<P>Have a great day.<P>Lori
