Thanks for the birthday rep!
I sure wish you some sort of respite from your troubles....

Hi Natalka,
Merry Christmas Day!
And thank-you for the many reps and messages you have sent me so often. God's Blessings!

Thanks for the rep, but the landlord definitely states that MB Housing is not responsible for the snow-ploughing RAOK in our tenant's parking lot here. It's a private citizen with money and power, and this has been going on for several winters. We can't discover the identity, but sure as clock-work, after any snowfall, there's this guy out front speedily and efficiently ploughing our parking lot. And he just zooms off before we can pry the info from him.

Thanks for the rep, and the wise saying. But I must disagree, because it's far easier to go downhill and be miserable than it is to battle uphill and gain in strength. And the uphill battle can be lost by severe illness. But still, thanks!

Thanks for the rep, Natalka! Is that Jerome in your window here? You're right about cats; ever read 'Thomasina'?
