ReplyDeletespoke too soon.... one of said toenails has now fallen off.
ReplyDeletebut hidden underneath was the shiny new beginning of a fresh toenail already starting to grow.
These are all wonderful things to be thankful for. I'm thankful you are my friend and that I didn't eat marshmallows on my sweet potatoes. (why I can't get over that I'll never know, it just seems so extra sweet)
ReplyDeletei find it excessive too, but... to each their own, right? you don't make me eat marshmallows on my sweet potatoes and i won't make you eat peanut butter on your bacon. sounds fair to me!
ReplyDeletei'm thankful for you too, miss pina...
I cannot believe you have not posted my comments to Megan... kind of sad for someone who has been whistling down the road, looking for someone to "see that she sees"....
ReplyDelete@ Anon... i have been taking some time away from the computer, getting things in order in my off-line life. i don't come here every day, even when i'm blogging more frequently.
