@Maureen13359790 Mo! That was ages ago…I'm afraid I'm not very good at Twitter. Too much noise for me. Let me know if you like it. Big hugs!

Downton Abbey fans confused by Laura Linney intros? This made me laugh: http://t.co/oJ12EqRu

Hey Jon Stewart - why oh why can't I watch your show online in #Canada? I miss you!

[Joanne E. Kistruck @snapdragonink]

Hello #Canada! Look kids, Socialists! :-)

Oh @Cbusr I'm beginning to think you purposely plan your meetups for while I'm away. Do you? @BenchesBoards thinks so too. :-)

[Joanne E. Kistruck @snapdragonink]

Leaving for #Haiti on Sunday and I'm almost ready...Follow @BenchesBoards. I'll be tweeting from the field, so to speak, from that address.

[Joanne E. Kistruck @snapdragonink]

@StarBaker Thank-you! Hate leaving my kids but can't wait to get back there.

[Joanne E. Kistruck @snapdragonink]

Leaving for #Haiti on Sunday! Follow @BenchesBoards to get live updates & see photos while I'm there.

[Joanne E. Kistruck @snapdragonink]

Getting ready to leave for #Haiti, I'm thinking about the kids I met last year and time spent with one in particular. http://t.co/qQ39baLq

[Joanne E. Kistruck @snapdragonink]

Hey kids, just letting you know that I'm still here but tweeting mostly from @benchesboards now; not adept at separating personal from work!

[Joanne E. Kistruck @snapdragonink]

I'm going to slip in an #FF before I'm too late. Ready? Congrats @BenchesBoards on #nonprofit launch today! (Cheeky, no?)

[Joanne E. Kistruck @snapdragonink]

Thanks for the support @racheltayse & @savagebirdy - it means a lot. x

@racheltayse Sounds perfect except for the hauling and splitting part :-) I could always send G out on his scooter with a saw I guess...

[Joanne E. Kistruck @snapdragonink]

@racheltayse Where do you get your firewood? Three years here and still haven't figured out a good source. Please don't say "trees". :-)
