Ugh.<br /><br />Bella and Olga have many things in common, like over-zealousism. Hmm... is that a word? If not, I just made it one! <br /><br />Ya know, it will be whatever it is, and there is really nothing we can do to stop it, prevent it, or plan for it.Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05875008154587045790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-47935553230496471872013-04-14T20:45:36.931+01:002013-04-14T20:45:36.931+01:00I don't know -- I don't have the survivali...I don't know -- I don't have the survivalist gene.

I've seen great, dramatic changes in my life span, but in the moment, it never feels fast enough.<br /><br />We are a very impatient species, even when contemplating doomsday.Reya Mellickerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076092659507965666noreply@blogger.com
