What did you do today?

I was asked recently by a person who does not know me all that well...

What have you been up to today?

As most people who DO know the two of us, you know this is a DANGEROUS QUESTION!

And this got me to thinking... which is a DANGEROUS PASTIME!

So, what did we do today? This is, of course, the 'royal we' that includes Tammy, myself, Denis, Anden, Dad Faux and Sally. Yep, had a crew for parts of the day!
