You're too kind! I'm sure you have more pressing concerns right now, but she tends to prefer black or tan coloured clothes.

How's the new business coming along?

I will see what I can do to knit something that will go with those colors! I have a couple of knitting projects to complete, though. However, I will let you know what I come up with.

The new business is still in a development stage. I don't anticipate launching it until next year. I have to finish my programming and a few other pieces have to fall into place. Thank you so much for asking about it!

My girlfriend and I still have quite a few things my mother crocheted when she was still able to crochet many years ago.

I'm skeptical of many things, but many do not consider me one because I'm a Xian. I do have street "smarts" though; it's helped me survive even without Hubby.

I think you serve as an excellent example of how someone should be if they want to be Christian but are also interested in skepticism.

MLynn is no fuckwit, but is she a True Christian TM?

She definitely believes in Nice Jesus, but is that the True Christian TM position? :wink:
