I was about to say - "You look like a banana!" but changed at the last moment and said "How lovely to see that bright lemony colour on a grey October morning!" If I hadn't been married, I think she would have fornicated with me right there and then on the tarmacadam. <BR/><BR/>Ever thought of becoming a women's fashion writer for a local newspaper?Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2286321024842109960.post-91722304036707174202008-10-17T16:04:00.000-04:002008-10-17T16:04:00.000-04:00Aaaah .. thanks Bob!

I think I have another cold coming, I feel as if I have jetlag (but haven't had the pleasure of the jet travel to deserve it) or a hangover (and no alcohol either), I've eaten too much (again!) and my hair desperately needs a cut and colour. So it's really, really nice to hear that in actual fact, I'm looking stunning!<BR/><BR/>The wedding sounds really lovely. Just like me.

If you can't see any sheep to count, count your blessings instead! Praying for each member of your family also works, because the enemy of our souls doesn't like us to do that and promptly lets sleep overtake us.<BR/><BR/>I'm looking forward to reading your answer to my only-somewhat-tongue-in-cheek question.<BR/><BR/><B>Mr. Barlow, Putz, sir</B>, welcome aboard. Wow! We seem to be almost long-lost twins. My birthdate, by the way, is 1941. The picture in the navy coat was taken in 1943. I grew up in Texas not far from where the Ranger Stadium is now. Our houseguest last weekend was enroute from visiting her sister in, of all places, Asheboro, North Carolina, to the same area of Texas, which I call Not Grapevine to keep people guessing. Small world, eh? But I have never, ever, sung on the shores of the Great Salt Lake.

Ms. Gabor has been married eight times, I think, even more times than Elizabeth Rosamund Taylor Hilton Wilder Todd Fisher Fisher Burton Fortensky. I'm sure neither of them is as stunning as you!<BR/><BR/>Jeannelle, I must first overcome a few obstacles before the recording of the piano music can occur. First, I don't own a digital video camera or a cell phone that takes pictures. Second, my piano is horribly out of tune. Third, remedying the first two requires more disposable income than we currently have. As Gilda Radner/Rosanne Rosannadanna said, "It's always something." And I'm glad I made your day with the compliment!rhymeswithplaguehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10870439618129001633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2286321024842109960.post-9835396304986149012008-10-15T16:58:00.000-04:002008-10-15T16:58:00.000-04:00Yes, thank you for the compliment on my appearance...Yes, thank you for the compliment on my appearance! Made my day!<BR/><BR/>Interesting colors for the wedding.....the olive green and brown. Nice for a fall wedding.<BR/><BR/>Some of the styles nowadays DO look like maternity wear, so don't feel too bad. My daughters have complained about the style....they don't like it. "Foot in mouth" strikes all of us occasionally.<BR/><BR/>I hope you're busy recording some of your piano music for us to hear!Jeannellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10506888396193293867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2286321024842109960.post-21471700353400247382008-10-15T16:03:00.000-04:002008-10-15T16:03:00.000-04:00Why, thank you, dahhhling.
