Just thought I'd share this poem that was wrote for me! (not really but it could have been)The Cleaning PoemI asked the Lord to tell me
Why my house is such a mess
He asked if I'd been 'computering',
And I had to answer 'yes.'He told me to get off my butt,
And tidy up the house.
And so I started cleaning up...
The smudges off my mouse.I wiped and shined the topside.
That really did the trick...
I was just admiring my good work.I didn't mean to 'click.'But click, I did, and oops - I found
A real absorbing site
That I got SO way into it -
I was into it all night.
So nothing's changed except my mouse.
It's as shiny as the sun.
I guess my house will stay a mess.....
While I sit here on my bum.Thank you for being my e-mail buddy and friend!
'It's nice to know where I can find all you guys!'
