  Just Overheard...
Darcy is sitting here at the table next to me working on her computer. Grant is here at the table doing bills. Rayna and Doug are downstairs watching a DVD. The basement door is ajar and the sound of their two voices are clearly floating up to us. A rhinocerous just made an appearance on their DVD. Doug exclaimed excitedly, "A DINOSAUR!!!!", to which Rayna scornfully replied, "That is NOT a 'DINOSAUR', Doug. It's a NOSTRIL!"

Rayna is always so EMPHATIC. I am sure that poor Doug is now trying to log in his memory that that impressive horned creature is called a "NOSTRIL", not a dinosaur. Yes, Rayna is ever vigilant for opportunities to set Doug straight and expand his education! With her help, he is sure to be speaking fluent English any day now!

  • Annika is my niece. She was born with bilary atresia and had to have her first major surgery at the age of 6 weeks. Just before she turned a year old, she had to have a liver transplant. Two and a half months later, she had to have a second transplant. Now, five years old, she needs a third transplant and her family's insurance is nearly maxed out so a COTA fund has been established to raise the money needed.
    (Please click on the little bear button above to donate to her COTA account or to view the raffles and other projects that are in progress to build the fund. If you have crafts, etc, that you could donate to be sold/raffled, this would also help greatly!)
