Not yet, tho', okay? I'm packing and then peeking in on OS between boxes.

AND I agree with LK you’re a tough task master.
However this could be very interesting in the end.
AND I’m going to get this a try.
*sighing*
The Maya Prophecy refers to our last era of 25,000+ years as the Nine Hells. The next era beginning this December is referred to as The Thirteen Heavens. The last era ended years ago and this in-between time of today is referred to as the Apocalypse by the Maya-- this all having been recorded prior to 900 AD.
Interesting, eh?
"Just thinking on how to stoρ the not loving of the earth...maybe tears will tear hate away,since when the end of the world comes I do not want to be there,I do not want to witness it"...Rated on motivational work!!!
Include an OS avatar, you say ... ?
This could be very tricky. Interesting challenge, JD. I've read Poor Woman's & trilogy's so far ...
Mmmm ...
Could it be we go out with a bang not a whimper?
Must say, it was fun :)
Thanks,
