I forgot to watch and make sure all if your words were there. But then, that's the sign of a good author when none of them seemed out of place which would have reminded me to pay attention.

Hey! We're online at the same time!! heeee!

This wasn't my favorite piece by a long shot, but I had to work to get all nine words and a feeing of serenity in there. Whew! It was fun, though. You should try it if you feel like writing!

I'm FINALLY replying to you today. I swear I'm not dead. Just all bound up like a mummy so it is taking me three times as long to type anything up. Gah!

I thought you did a wonderful job of incorporating them.

[keppiehed]

Well, thank you. It was a fun if not terribly successful exercise.

What a great little story! And thank goodness for 'good' sisters, and movie nights!
