Blessings, My Friend ... praying we all survive this, but there are some dark, heavy clouds gathering, and we're ALL in their path. Thanks, W2!

Thank you, Kim, I wish I could say it was all a joke, but we're in very troubled times. Blessings, nonetheless! <3

This is really well done, Greg! At least we won't feel a thing in our "dusty" state!

And top that with "business is booming" horrendous hilariousness this morning Greg! That has struck me with fear the most with this prez, war makes money, and that's what he does. Shaking in my Mary Janes, xomo

Thank you, Maureen - I almost made that the title, but wanted to be a bit more direct and not make a complete joke of it ... I'll have to write one with that title, even MORE sarcastic, though, lol. Thanks again, my friend! :-)
