    Both sound lovely Lorel! Hi!

    Thanks for the Advice -Kriston and Kcab. I'm trying the alphabet, and looking forward to trying the swaying.
    Glad to hear that you've improved - but not you Wren!

    Kimck, Lmom and Dottie - how weird is that with the clothing? I'm just hoping he'll come home with both sneakers.

    OHG - nice link, thanks! I never understood why chicken is chicken, but beef and cow. ((shrug)) city-girl, I guess.

    Smiles,
    Grinity

    Best I can figure is a cow denotes a gender and maturity level of a bovine, beef is a generic term for the meat. 'Chicken' isn't gender specific.
    You can refer to eating a steer, a neutered male raised primarily for food; a bull, raised primarily for breeding but butchered at 12-20 months is good eating and leaner and richer flavored than a steer. A cow or older bull, is leaner and stronger flavored, generally used for hamburger.
    OK, that was my unsolicited, cattleman public service post of the day, hahaha.

    Moo!

    (It's my second post of the day containing a moo. It just seemed to cry out for one!)

    Oh and 'Neato, I'm laughing at you, not with you! :p

    So - DS11 is deposited at his overnight camp. It sure is quite around the house. Saying good bye was sad, but I put on my best front because I knew he wouldn't want to get emotional in front of the other boys. My ankle is almost fine. Nothing really more to report.

    I just realized that I did respond to you, Neato, because I remember making a bad pun about sprained ankles being a drag....as I'm dragging around my bad foot, but it looks like my responce was published in invisiable ink because now I can't find that post.
