You are so much more motivated than I am. I'm impressed.

Yes. You are right they are hard to find. I have found them, though - I sent some to my daughter at camp. Probably got them at a drug store or WalMart.>

> Still need to do this one as well. I'm in that lazy post professional remodel and now in the personal (i.e. tons of work for no pay) part of spiffing up this house. A good break at the library, riding there on my bike no less, would do me a world of good.Wow. On your bike, too. My energy expenditures are to walk out to the kitchen to see if the chocolate fairy has brought anything since the last time I checked.
My daughter thinks you should read the picture books out loud to a kid - she says that is more rewarding.
