1582 - Due to the implementation of the Gregorian calendar this day does not exist in this year in Italy, Poland, Portugal and Spain.

I'm going to do it on Monday instead - too hot to think a lot and I already did this a few months ago, so it's already done. Well, except for Bailey's.

LOL Loreth, we'll have to see, won't we? I forgot that she's Bailey now. It's weird to call someone other than my child by that name, BTW. She'll probably always be Eve to me. Although... didn't you used to have another online name? I think that's the worst part of folks selling... I get all name discombobulated.

Camy... if you notice, you didn't get tagged. LOL. I only tag folks that I know don't mind being tagged.

Which is why I think it's funny that Miz Heather decided to post hers, because the last time I tagged her, she read me the riot act. ;)
