It looks like Mission to me and I just love it! I'm a quilter and knitter and would give my right leg to have a chair like that--I need my right arm for the sewing and knitting. >grinOk, next time you compose a message, just go to photobucket, highlight the "HTML Code....." under the picture you want to include, then go back to the message and paste it in. When you see the preview of your message, you should see your picture in place. It seemed complicated to me the first time I tried it, but it's actually pretty easy. It'd have to be if I can do it!

MY husband has telephone solicitors call back to speak to me! Within an hour after we got back from our honeymoon, I had a guy call me about cemetery plots. We went to a home & garden show last weekend & he signed ME up at every booth. I told our DD that I'd be getting phone calls for the next month, as the people went through the names & called people. DD said "oh no, why did you do that Daddy?" He smiled his elfish grin! Actually, it was good to see the mischief. He's been under horrible stress at work for the past several months & I miss his harrassment.

One thing I get a kick out of is mine fights like crazy if I put her into the pet carrier to take her somewhere. But when we're there, she'll crawl into it! I suppose she feels safer in there when she's nervous and at least it's familiar.
