Hi professor, If you write about your wife,like you did of Madame Hardy, you will be able to get out of ANY hot water. I enjoyed your "Organic Agnosticism"; I'm related to a Wee. Your photos are very good. You're sure to win your contest. Thanks, Kitty

I don't know if it's stomp-proof, but we had some growing in our yard, and my husband would even weedeat it every other week or so, and it would still grow back. So I just thought it might be able to take some bird stomping too. I can see why you wouldn't want to plant it though if it's a place that's off limits to the cats. Maybe you could grow another kind of mint that's not catnip? I have never grown any other kind of mint before, so I can't tell you if it's as tough or hardy as catnip.

HI dancing girl ! Alot has happened since I purchased my pe scan! 2 new embroidery machines 1 old version of Disney then a new version of brother embroidery machine ....I haven used my pe scan but once! I tryed using it yesterday. ....it no longer works! Tryed looking it up on brother website but there is no such item must be so outdated! I took it apart today and fuse is black I need a new fuse ! But I don't know what kind of fuse it is! Brother is closed on Sunday :(. Maybe you know someone with this information the rest of the machine is pristine! But the fuse! ...I JUST ORDER THE BROTHER SCAN N CUT LAST WEEK! I'm so excited I'm wondering if I need this machine anymore now that I have the scan and cut I might be able just to transfer to pe design after I scan on cut n scan or I can just transfer it to my machine after that it sounds complicated to me so if I have to but a new one I might just get the flip pro scanner for brother I found one for 135.oo. so I have to wait till next month unless the cut n scan works?? If anyone knows anything about the only fuse that's inside the pe scan let me know ! I like to use this for lace if I can fix it! Thank you so much!! Dancing girl! !

Ok, it's a couple of hours later and I'm calmer :p I finally spoke to my KD and he faxed over a nice diagram of what has to be done, for my contractor. He balked at first, saying he was "too busy" to do anything elaborate, but really gave me a nice sketch (I've used him twice in the last 12 years, let alone the gobs of money I spent there, so you'd think he would stop for a few moments to draw something like this out for me). He explained it to me better as well, much like you both did. For some reason, I had this impression that the sink would be touching the dishwasher. I don't know why. Maybe it's from what the counter installer said to me, how he said it that I got that impression. Duh. Ok, I need a drink I think. We're almost at the end of this and it really has been too much to deal with lately. Hopefully I'll just have some nice pix to post soon and I can stop complaining already :p
