    Hello, saw your comment at Subby's blog.

    I love this quote and copied it. I might use this myself in the future.

    Bahaha! As your official internet pharmacist I can say that is pretty close to being right.

    Normally I would say to have a glass of wine and stay away from the children, but whatever works

    Wonderful quote - quite a writer that Anonymous has been over the centuries! At Women's Night at Alpine Playhouse recently, one of the local participants who has just ended her long career as a much-loved kindergarten teacher said: "When I looked at the children playing during recess one day and found myself imagining a patch of quicksand on the playground, I knew right then it was time to retire."

    You number my wanderings; Put my tears into Your bottle; [Are they] not in Your book? Psalm 56:8
