I hadn't had such a big laugh in a while, and my husband, hearing my very vocal laughter, at first thought wondered if I were still hung over from a party last night.

What poverty are they fighting? So much of what they force borrowing-countries to do wreck the economies of the country, but pay back BIG bucks to the lender. It seems that the poverty the World Bank fights is poverty of the very well off. The statement that the World Bank is a poverty-fighting institution caught my eye. What poverty are they fighting?

I had to take some time off work and conme down to Tennessee to help my mother move. She's going to be coming to live with me. Once she is settled in, she, Jane and I will have our new computers set up (they're waiting to be unboxed) and, hopefully, by the end of the month we could be blogging from home. Certainly by the end of June at the latest. I can't wait to get back to my blog and all the fun at TP. I've missed you guys. Zooey!
