Not exactly.

I think you must have missed the thread I posted last year when Bubba sent me this Sub in May 2008. Nothing to do with my 55K posts. That's something I just started up to honour Bubba!

I too read it as being a new gift, for your posting milestone! As I am sure many others did as well. Having read it again, the OP is ambiguous.

Stay in one forum, silly - you're making me dizzy! We'll have to have a Skype chat next week once Chris is home from the hospital.

It was this Tuesday - I'm at the hospital right now (Chris is napping). I see you have not been visiting the Girls Coffeesshoppe!

He's doing great, and will probably be home tomorrow morning.

Good to hear, Caroline. When he wakes up say HELLO to him from me and wish him a very speedy recovery.

Take care, both of you - JJ
