My Mother used to have a retail gift shop called "A Serendipity". She
routinely got mail addressed to "Ms. Sarah Dippity". Just thought I'd throw
that
in. I'm sorting through a large wooden chest that came over from Germany
with immigrants in the 1800's and which I purchased at an antique shop several
years ago. It is stuffed to the brim with children's school work and art work
and printed out this and that's I didn't know where else to put. I'm
picking up each piece of paper, deciding if it belongs in a childrens'
precious
work box, an information gleaned from the computer box, or the trash, so that
I
can move the chest from the bedroom into the living room (Jim suggests I'll
need to rent a crane -- it will have to somehow be lifted *over* the bed) and
fill it with extra blankets, pillows, comforters for guest use. And you
wonder why I sound loopy. Loopier than usual. I've been at it for hours.
This
is the 7th circle of hell. Or perhaps early purgatory. Why do I do these
things?!?!

Well, I have been called Paula before since my middle name starts with "a"
and sometimes, people print it a LITTLE too close to the first word. I
actually once answered "here" to that in a university freshman class roll
call. I never lived that down.
