Jean,

Feed that girl some rich dark chocolate...may not make her poop, but sure would taste good!

Tell our sweet Chrissie that I miss her and look forward to her having her computer so she can share her experiences in her own great style LOL!

Thanks, Jean, for giving us an update! Glad you got to meet her...you lucky woman, you!

Sloppy kisses for all! kcmo rose
