Lots of fun with this and you make it look easy. Thanks for your comments about gnome. I now have 2 scanners that I can use and a plug thingy I can not. I could return my new one but there are things it can do my other one can't so I will keep it as back up. I can not live without a scanner. Funny how you get to depend on these things. I replaced my printer a month ago because there was an ink problem. It would cost me more to check it in buying ink than getting a new one. The new one I now love because it has so many cool things it does and it even prints well.

Heather said...

Love her costume! sparkly. (so funny that you have a kitty like mine. Is it a Torbie(tortise shell and tabby) too?)

caren said...

Oooh....i am so excited but I really would like to pay you for it. By the way, I'll be your twin anyday - lol
