Hi Billy! Glad you dropped by:)
Thank you, Billy.
Nice to meet Joy on your blog, Denise. Her book sounds interesting- not sure if I’d want to know what the future holds for me (though there are times when it would be handy!)
Ha, ha, Jacquie, that’s a dilema, right? No one wants to know.
Knowing would certainly come in handy at times, Jacquie:) Like you though I’d rather not know. Thanks for stopping by!
