Says it all. When I start sneezing, I know the dust is winning again here.

My sister once guilted out (briefly) a visitor who idly ran a finger along the dust layer on the mantel above the fireplace. “Oh no!” my sister wailed. “You’ve dug up the seeds I had planted!”

We don’t want Graham thinking you’re doing *too* well without him. Don’t get carried away doing the high and low places.

You’ve gotten a special dispensation for getting Graham that ticket. Plus, he needs to have something to do (other than re-d0ing all the paint and plaster again).

Thank you for Ethel Merman! What a dynamic lady she was!
