That's good to hear.  Too many tailgaters and aggressive drivers out there.  My son had a bottle of water thrown at him for not speeding.

Sounds like a good day. And I learned a new word! Thank you.

Re: Kabu,

Indulgence is always expensive... as I prove to myself from time to time, lest I forget.  I hope you are feeling better!

Re: Pat,

Let me know if you need a double-sided makeup mirror/table.

Or maybe we should get on down to New Zealand together, and share a house big enough for two women of independent temperament.

good for you darling, all read like good shopping and lots of fun.

I have just finished off the end of a box of chocolates, and now feel ill. Not that that has anything to do with anything. Just felt like sharing with you.  xx

You're accumulating for staging and just for having...

I'm winnowing and pitching. Have decided to sell the house next spring & find something all on one level, an apt. or condo that I need not mow grass, rake leaves or shovel sidewalks for... But I have developed a fondness for black leather club chairs, which I'd like to set up in a conversation group in front of the fireplace. I'm keeping that staging in mind as I work toward the transition.

I myself learned something new today, orrery.

Re: CCT,

I wouldn't go too far for a diamond mine, I'm not that impressed with diamonds. But I'd love to get a crack at opal mining in Australia!

Re: TAPS,

This one is very simple compared to, say, Augra's orrery in The Dark Crystal. I'll get a picture of it soon...

Well that was a good cop. I wonder how far you would go for an access to a diamond mine? I'll admit I used to chase after antiques.

That was very interesting.  I had to look up orrery and ended up spending quite a bit of time at each image.  That is something that my Dad would have bought to teach us about the universe.  He loved teaching us unusual facts and figures.
