" hey ang...yah, jeepers creepers, if only she could really get into our heads....then she would maybe not talk...lol....i'm glad u gave her some feedback ang...lol...that ought to knock some sense into her...

i think when people say; those kind of thing's they really are extremely insensitive and just do not have a clue you know, actually, i rather feel bad for people like this, i really do:(...i hope maybe she has something to think about now...and maybe she might even just get a tiny clue...

peace angch...and i'm so glad ur back:) , love, maggie "
