'Course we are all cheering you on Elle - you are allowed a little break, but don't give up, whatever you do.
Patti, yes, I did all those things. I couldn't wait to get it on my bed, and I just sat up looking at it all the time - but then when DD wanted me to put it in a show this year, I had to take it off the bed again in case I spilled something on it. Once it has been in the show, i will go back to sleeping under it, as I only had a few nights with it the first time. (and I still grin to myself about it too).
