Susan-

I value guests. That's the only time we stand a chance of clearing the decks here.

Of course as soon as they depart, all the stuff comes trickling out of the closets, corners, from under tables, and redeposits itself onto every available surface. It's a good thing that I have an appreciation of gravity and the process of sedimentation.

Judy's back from her conference and her previously empty duffle bag appears pregnant. The large garment bag is lurking in the kitchen awaiting an opportunity to spew its contents, while the smaller bag has already exploded!

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
