That list is amazing, by the way. I didn't realize how many "Bardisms" were attributed to him: Method in the madness, A sorry sight, A tower of strength, Bated breath, Budge an inch, For goodness' sake, Foregone conclusion, Neither rhyme nor reason. <br /> <br />And you truely are St. Natasha, with your compassion for your neighbor.

Lamentably, it has been the SAME person each time and A's and my only thought is generally not IF the next crisis will arrive, but WHEN. All of their friends have called it quits and bailed out on them (with good reason) and I am the only one left who even picks up the phone when she calls -- though if it's not the middle of the night, I let it move first into voice mail.<br /><br />It's a neighbor, not even someone I consider a close friend. It's hard not to throw a life preserver out when someone's drowning, though.<br /><br />Just didn't want you to think all my friends -- and I by association -- were hatchet-wielding loonies or anything. :) <br /><br />Okay, maybe the loonie bit but I don't do hatchets.<br /><br />And, DUH, I didn't connect all the Shakespeare references. Don't know 'chance may crown me.' You are SO clever -- and I can tell you are gearing up for a wonderful time!Natashahttp://natasha.edcentric.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7917638150345655051.post-85541566509029744272010-05-12T20:41:02.613-07:002010-05-12T20:41:02.613-07:00Natasha - that is so true about picking up where y...Natasha - that is so true about picking up where you left off. I wrote a letter to them all (I think it was something Ann had us do in BWW), and said that very thing. It will be a great week! And I will have time to write. I'm taking a couple of books on time travel and spells to read about how it's done. A Knight In Shining Armour (Deveraux) and The Wizard of Seattle (Hooper).Linda McMannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04451172610563446882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7917638150345655051.post-10845624978840168862010-05-12T20:21:20.912-07:002010-05-12T20:21:20.912-07:00What a GREAT week you have planned!
