I appreciate your kind words. Blessings!<br /><br />Kelly, Billy is almost a family member up at my sister's house. I don't watch his show, but my nephew and his wife got to go and be on Dr. Oz in NYC with Billy due to a snake infestation at their house. LOL! Blessings!<br /><br />Erin, yes, we all feel so from time to time. No, not only me, Erin on the snake thing. Here in the swamps of Louisiana, snakes are a daily thing in the Spring and Summer. I've had 5 MORE snakes just today, but they were the harmless kind, so I rescued them from my sweet kitties who LOVE bringing me these fun presents. Sigh. I am SOOOO LOVED! LOL! xoxoxo<br /><br />Quid, I've missed you! I hope you didn't get our storms there in Tampa. Blessings!!<br /><br />DS, thanks. Methinks the innocent snakes are being greatly disturbed by my 8 wiley cats. LOL!<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by, Audrey. I'm hoping to get Blogger straight soon. Blessings!!Marionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14786883679294446945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4356162479428337180.post-11505035439397605772011-03-09T23:39:28.194-06:002011-03-09T23:39:28.194-06:00Hi Marion.

It's the Blogger Monster who visits each of us at some time or another.<br />Not fair that you should have to deal with that and snakes, too!
