I'm sitting here in the rain in Oregon and thinking your weather sounds kinda nice, but I do understand how you feel.<br /> Linda, you have to be one of the sweetest perkiest ladies I know. I love your accepting spirit to all around you, your zest for life, and your love for your dear husband. <br /> You are a wonderful homemaker in all that you do.
