The last part of my sentence to read: "her emotirts grew rapidly." * Cannot save it in the sentence box???? - OZZIEBOB, 2008-07-24: 06:03:00

Think it got through now? Hope so, otherwise Roxie's may have "bounce-back" breakdown. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-07-24: 06:15:00

hey purple - you must have had a wild memorial day weekend to be logging in so late - Jabberwocky, 2007-05-30: 11:59:00

Oh yeah, I've been off of work since Saturday! Unfortunately, I didn't have much fun, the yard work got out of hand, the garden needed planting, and I was up to my knees in mouse turds at the cabin. Think I'll suggest a definition for a really gross task... - purpleartichokes, 2007-05-30: 12:05:00

I'm sure it will all pay off - Jabberwocky, 2007-05-30: 12:40:00
