(contract stuff - large orders for universities, not residential). Any time he does special orders (they don't hold "stock") - even if it's made in US, it takes 6-8 weeks. That's just a given, b/c each piece is built to specs.

Because of my tendency to high blood pressure, my family doc advises me to take Zyrtek -- even for a cold.<br /><br />And this morning, I'm having hot tea with lemon and honey.<br /><br />I have lecture to give today on <i>Crime and Punishment</i> and have my horehound drops in my purse. I find horehound candy to be a good palliative.Always On Watchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08192688822955022541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4320479736034351430.post-48164582656165353972010-11-30T06:59:32.169-06:002010-11-30T06:59:32.169-06:00That looks like a great piece of furniture!

Of course, his feeling so ill doesn't help!<br /><br />Once I get rid of this hospital bed, I may well go out and buy another piece of Lazyboy furniture -- for myself! I might get a love seat/sleeper.
