vw, that baby hat is adorable! I love the colors, and the way the white yarn mimics a fur-lined cap. Great job. I forget, do you know if the baby is to be a niece or a nephew?
Kristin, I hope the trip is smooth sailing.
Hil, CONGRATULATIONS!!!
She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

Thanks! The light yarn is actually a creamy yellow. It didn't show up great in the picture. The colors are really sweet together.
And I don't know if it's a niece of nephew yet. We might find out next week, if the baby cooperates. My SIL is pretty sure it's a girl, though, which would be *really* fun, 'cause on three of the four sides of the family there are no girls. But, a boy would be much fun too. Happy and healthy. That's what I want.

The status is NOT quo.
Wow, vw--gorgeous hat!

Backflung, sj! Sorry it took so long, but I was at work-teaching a class for first time homebuyers.

I'm melting. Just had to help DH with a chore outside. Came back in to check the weather to see what was what and if any rain was possible. The forecast is for a high of 82 today with a current temperature of 90. That ain't right. They say the high tomorrow will be 81. I think they lie.

Thanks, DJ!
{{{Raq}}} That is completely unacceptable. I'm so sorry you have to deal with this.

are there any mathy types about? I'm trying to figure out the percentage change from 253 to 494. The context:
In the first eight years of the program’s existence, the number of women college presidents increased from 154 to 253, a 65% increase. Of the 2,148 colleges surveyed by the ACE in 2006, over 20 years later, only 23% had women presidents, about 494, a xx% increase over 1985's total of 253.
God, I'm stupid. I know this is very basic but I don't know it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
494 is 195% of 253, so that's a 95% increase.
