that my Mom and I had a good laugh at a mistake her nursing home made. Their June invoice included 2 long-distance phone calls made from her room. I pointed out to them that she cannot speak! It turned out that the calls should have been charged to the room next to hers.

I think you are on to something Dave :) Let me know how that works out, and I might try it!
Daffyd, thanks again for the plant.
right on the money......progress not perfection..
dAAve, that's pretty funny about the phone bill... Hey, you and Scott have a safe and fun trip to NYC, and for HP's sake try to leave the place at least as good as you found it!
Good for your mom. It is so much more peaceful to laugh at something wrong than get irate about it. In the end I am glad it all worked out.
I am smiling :)
