My best wishes for Chelsea and your daughter! And I haven't made any progress either with my attempts at making a decision to begin the first move in my weight loss campaign...

BTW, I saw your query at adnohr's, and just in case she doesn't get around to it, I shall enlighten you. 'Habs' is short for 'Les Habitants', 'The Settlers', i.e. the French immigrants who first settled Quebec. And the Montreal Canadiens (the official name being Club de Hockey Canadien) are the French Canadian team, and the nickname sort of came naturally, I guess...But the Toronto Maple Leafs, sometimes referred to as the 'Buds', are a better team!

You're welcome!

The young ladies give you lots to think about and you give them lots of love. Hey, I got on that darn scale this morning and I'm +3lbs after supper at Boston Pizza last night.

Well Pat I guess things are changing so quickly, perhaps the Teachers are out of their

depth, nice to get a good one though. I note that here a lot are not going to college it has become too expensive and often no suitable positions afterwards. One has to aim high.

Grrr - I have an intense dislike of teachers who forget they are there to TEACH!! I guess it's not like in high school where you could contact the principal and have her switched to another class. Hat's off to your daughter too...and I bet either one would be lucky to get her!

darling, congratulations on your clever and diligent family. You and I

appreciate how tough adult study can be. And one is allowed to tell their friends how well their children are doing, my Dad bragged something awful about my grades when I waas studying and I loved it. I was old enough to understand.
