I've never heard anyone comment on it but you. So thanks for making me feel less crazy. I thought I was the only one who struggled with the hand-binding process.

As I was thinking about this yesterday, I thought of a phrase that I feel suits you to a T, and I mean this in a very complimentary way. You are wonderful, whimsical, wonky and whirlwind Wanda. Hope I haven't offended you, because this was not my intention. <br /><br />With the cooler weather coming in, I will be spending more time outside, getting things done that are in dire need of some TLC.
