I Managed!!

Yes, I managed to do a shift on the switchboard .... I don't think I lost anyone in the system ... but will admit some of it was slow going. I didn't pick up as many calls as maybe I could have done, but it was nice to do some, relax for a few minutes and do some more. I am working again on the next 2 days, so hopefully doing the 3 like that will

I have a ring identical to the one on your little finger - in my case it was left to me by my friend Dorothy. along with the rest of her jewellery.

I spotted my first daffs yesterday, in the grass outside our local shops. And the first leaf bud on one of the rose bushes, too. So we are pretty much on a par with you. And expecting sleet and possibly snow tomorrow...

The ring on my little finger was one that I bought for Mum for her 80th ... she wore it every day until she passed. I now wear it most of the time.

Yes there are certainly signs of Spring, but do hope the weather won't get too cold and confuse the seasons

I can use chopsticks LOL but I didn't learn until later. I was always asking for forks and knives at relatives' houses and restaurants for a long time. Homemade soup? I don't make anything myself.

Hee - most places where I was growing up automatically provided knives & forks as the first choice ... nowadays quite a few places automatically provide chopsticks and you have o ask for a fork if you want

Well it's funny since we have so many Asians over here. When I was a kid we used to hit the Asian places in Asian areas like Chinatown and Japantown, and no one gave us forks or knives. It was chopsticks. I became so skillful I can pick up one grain of rice at a time with it, Walter tried and we were laughing when one of them flipped over and ended up on the floor :P
