thanks for all the encouragement

Lori - I so much know how you feel
and I'm sailing right along the edge of my limits
I had a very limited and specific list of garters allowed to me this summer and I ended up with an unexpected 3 out of 4
now there is only one very specific garter I'm permitted to get this year, and only if I can trade for it
then there's some exceptions - garters so unlikely to stumble across, I'd be a fool not to take them
and I'm firmly closing my eyes when I go to the rescue now
except Sean points animals out to me . . .
