Thanks for sending you note. I did check out your website and I have to add that Dusting is not a must. I'd rather pay someone else to do that stuff, if it is a must!
Just last Friday, while on vacation in Florida, I was sitting on the beach with a dear friend, Maryanne Preston. As we were enjoying our cocktails, our conversation included all the wonderful organizations where women gather. She was excited to tell me about your new venture with this site.
Thank you for the time devoted to puting this together. Though many of us are so many miles aways, you've created an easy resource for us to bond and share.
I hope to meet in person some day.
