Ginger, sorry I missed wishing you a happy birthday yesterday... I have been traveling. I hope your day was grand! Thanks for letting me know you got my candies. Enjoy being showered with candy!

You don't have to sterilize the glue. Just use a brand new tube. If you have a chunk of fingertip missing, you may be better off using "NuSkin". It's for where skin is missing but seals like superglue. If you still have the fingertip (its not cut all the way off), you can use superglue. Neither one works very well if you are bleeding a lot.

Marcia..thanks for the bio. It is nice to get to know everyone in this group. When I was young I lived in Rochester NY I think left around 4. I have cousins that still live there and hopefully will get back that way sometime soon.
What did you do at Kodak??? sounds like an interesting place to work.


I hope you have a great birthday. If you get a chance take a picture of all of your birthday candy squares!
