I may never, ever take a day off again...

..in the middle of the week.

Although I enjoyed myself immensely { oh yes I did } I was not prepared to see 67 voice mail messages from customers, and 73 emails from more customers, and a department in-box of over 70 more emails.

"Why" you ask? You didn't?? Well, let's just say you did...

We sent out an email blast with an offering to those folks who participated with the foundation in years past...a killer deal...and they all wanted to contact us..yesterday!

So, it's nice to be needed. 'Cos heaven knows..I need my job :-)


Whatcha got planned for the week-end? It's Mr. B's and my 27th Anniversary...and he's still lookin' for the fine print..

Told him he's in it for life...and b.e.y.o.n.d!!!...like totally for EVER.

OK, so here's our story ..... told from various perspectives....

What his family says....
What HE says..
What I say.....
How it was...
How it is??
Just kiddin'..it's more like this...
OK, and sometimes like this...


So, Mr. B., just remember:

A good wife always forgives her husband when she's wrong.
Milton Berle

To us!

No...that's not us...

Yeah...that's more like it :-)


I hope you have great plans for your week-ending. It's ALMOST Friday ! Yippee!

-me...Missus B

Oh, you are SO funny Colleen... you make my day!
Happy anniversary to you and Mr B.

Your last little photo (you're never too old to start anew)reminds me of my Dad who remarried again at the age of 86. He's now 98 so it didn't do him any harm!!

First, I want to work with your company. Fascinating! Second..I'd love to get into that DNA thing and take it wherever. I've done a lot of genealogy, but that would be interesting. It's the $$$$ that I don't have. Have you done that? THAT would be fun.

LOL, I like YOUR version better than his and his families! Happy anniversary Coleen, and may you have many, many more.
