Mary, Mary, quite contrary...

I posted my lists of 4 in the hopes that someday, just maybe, you'll remove my name from the list of blog slackers. A girl can dream. Happy reading!

Mary, you're right - this time of year filling in blanks is so much easier than actually articulating thoughts! Hurray for lists - I just posted mine.

umm.... you're really going to need to update this blog, and I had better say there ought to be a big photo of something on your hand when you do it!
