   Hi again, James!  This is a continuation of my previous message to you:   
      
   JB>  Maybe a stick of gaffer's tape, or a zip tie or two is   
   JB>  what's missing so your cushions stay in place?   
      
      
             Hmm.  The former would help close the gap... and quite possibly   
   scare certain individuals away... while the latter would keep the towel on the   
   arm of the chair from slipping.  I like the way you think... [chuckle].   
      
      
      
   JB>  I'm at a point where a landslide is another opportunity   
   JB>  sort and toss more stuff.   
      
      
             I can relate.  When the amount of decision-making one has to do   
   seems overwhelming, a landslide can help solve the problem of where to   
   begin....  :-)   
      
      
      
   JB>  (I really *should* be working to move that fridge, now   
   JB>  that you mention it. P-)   
      
      
             It's taken me awhile to catch myself making such remarks &   
   understand what's going on... i.e. I'm still trying to please an Authority   
   Figure from the past while my intuition guides me along a somewhat different   
   route.  Unless you get a lot more enjoyment out of moving heavy appliances   
   than I would, you don't really want to move the fridge; you want to have done   
   it.  (I can't take credit for the last bit... I ran across it several years   
   ago & the rest fell naturally into place.)  Nowadays I catch myself saying   
   things like "I'd prefer to get xxx done in daylight, and before it rains   
   again."  As an adult I have the privilege & the responsibility of deciding for   
   myself how I will organize my time.  I can feel virtuous about putting   
   business before pleasure.  But I can also recognize what we're doing here as   
   useful work although Aunt Hortense (God rest her soul) wouldn't have approved   
   because we seem to be having entirely too much fun.  ;-)   
      
      
      
   AH>  We still have a POTS line....  :-)   
      
   JB>  To confound things, the evil internet arrived here   
   JB>  also, so ebay has been swallowing up all sorts of   
   JB>  my time and available credit.   
      
      
             Glad to know I can now refer you to various Internet sites as   
   sources of information!  If you feel you have some difficulty with getting   
   carried away at live auctions in Calgary, though, the Internet may be a mixed   
   blessing.  :-)
