      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. :-)                                   --- timEd/386 1.10.y2k+        * Origin: Wits' End, Vancouver CANADA (1:153/716)    |
