The Nominees are:

Transfer is 4/25!  So please add me to the list.  I'm happy with any, but I think the April Showers is a great idea with the watering can!!! Or the Spring Lambs.

The siggies have been strange lately.  Go in to update it like you normally would.  Delete the link for the image and just keep hitting "save".  You have to click it a few times for the siggy to update.  Strange.
