Janet & Group - I just had the greatest laugh from reading Janet's note. It could have been titled "Adventures In Gift-Wrapping." Before PD (and for too long after the diagnosis) I was a perfectionist. Then I learned The Truth. And that is: No One Really Gives A Damn. Quite a revelation, huh? For example I would individually place each strand of tinsel on the tree. It would take hours! Now I approach the tree with a clump of tinsel in one hand and a Martini in the other. Then I pitch the aforementioned tinsel in the general direction of the aforementioned tree. Only once (that I'll admit to, anyway) did the signals get screwed-up and I had a Gin-soaked tree and a mouthful of aluminized plastic. Well, the smell of cheap Gin and Vermouth never bothered me anyway, but the tinsel tastes like Hell. Merry Christmas - Jim Finn
