There is always room for Happy Thoughts. Spring is finally here! We are not gardening...there are still piles of snow but the weather has been in the 40s with 50s for Easter Sunday. It has been a long time coming. Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

it's probably safer for everybody if you two don't know the powers that you have! don't snap your fingers and definitely don't wiggle your noses. do have fun this weekend!

That's great, Richard! But, Karen, are you saying our well-wishing had no effect on anything? I wanted to believe we had a part in his success! Just kidding. I guess I have to admit I don't have that kind of power--but I'll keep pretending I do and wishing him well.

Congratulations Richard. I am sure it was the strength of your ideas and not the well wishing that came through for you. You will have to explain it to us more when things start to happen. Its going to be 70 here today and I will get out and walk and maybe put in some edging along my walk. My daughter had jury duty at the Atlanta court house about two weeks before Brian Nichols went on his rampage. I never thought of her as taking any risk when I dropped her off downtown near the courthouse. You just never know. We were on our way to FL that morning and saw lots of cop cars and helicopters. The news here was full of all the funerals and controversy over security last week. Very sad and senseless.

i made it through the first round for the federal grant that i am applying for. i will get instructions next week for how to prepare my final proposal. i think all of your crossed fingers and my rabbit's foot collection did the trick. i will let you know the next time i will be needing some mojo (may 1st). yahoo!!

I had company, a college friend, so didn't get to watch the VT/Mich State game. Too bad they lost. We are die hard UK fans so we still have a team to root for. One of my sons is at Wake Forest so that was a disappointment too. I love college basketball. The KY/Cincinnati game was fun for us because my son who goes to UC was watching it with us and we were cheering for UK and he was cheering for UC.
