16 Apr 14 - 11:16 AM (#3619395) Subject: RE: April Press Room (NH) Shanty Sing From: Bat Goddess Wish we had a "Like" button here at Mudcat, Mary. It's been way too long since I've seen you. I hope to get up your direction, too, "when the weather's better" which, in theory, could be any time now! Linn |

20 Apr 14 - 09:31 AM (#3620533) Subject: RE: April Press Room (NH) Shanty Sing From: Bat Goddess May get a start on the report later today. I slept well last night, but still feel like I need a nap! Linn |
20 Apr 14 - 10:24 AM (#3620541) Subject: RE: April Press Room (NH) Shanty Sing From: Jeri I've been working, and with getting-ready time and travel time, figure I had 2 - 3 hours to myself when I got home. I was for a couple hours yesterday, came home, and became a chair puddle. Slept for about 11 hours last night, woke up to symptoms of something which has not quite manifested as a cold (vs allergy), but I actually got dressed and went to the store for zinc a little while ago. I'm sorry I missed the session. I'd been looking forward to it right up until the time I started looking forward to sleeping. |
