Kobber, at least you made an impression. That's half the battle right there!

That sounds like a lovely outfit for a cold morning!

He's too young to appreciate women who have the confidence to be themselves!

It started with a George Clooney look-a-like at your doorstep! That's a sign of a good day!

You raise some very good points!

I'm now all clean and coiffed, and wearing perfectly colour coordinated clothes, with make-up befitting a woman of my advanced age! I've also cleared away the weeds growing around the water meter.

Whaddya reckon? Should I call Mr. George Clooneyish and ask him to come over at the end of his shift to inspect my work??!! It would certainly improve my day!

OMG! Remember these tube tops from when we were teenagers?

Terry Classic Pant - Victoria's Secret

My best friend wore them all the time! I never could wear them because I had no boobs without a bra!

We used to call them "boob-tubes"!

Good morning all! Well it would seem our 90 degree temperatures are in hiding this week, and of course it is the start of the summer swim league today, and the kids get to swim in an unheated outdoor pool with a forecast high of 62. I am psyching myself up for the inevitable whining, I have a couple of extra charges over the summer too, so double whining for me. Yay!

Hi mommys,

Went home to visit my granny this weekend. I expected the worst and was surprised. She remembered me and even was able to say my name. When my hair fell in front of my eyesnand she pushed it behind my ear. She gets a lot of flowers and we always give her the card and my dad insisted she couldn't read it. So we gave her the card upside down and she actually turned it around to see it. It's a long road to recovery but hopefully she will at least be able to speak,

In other news...I'm still in Ohio. My mom took me to the airport. I boarded my plane and they said it was going to be 22 mins to take off. Then it was 2 hours and they did a beverage service. Then they let everyone off the plane. At that point they asked if anyone would like to chAnge flights and I just volunteered.

Ohio - I am glad your granny is a little better, and that you get to spend more time visiting everyone. Have fun.
