I hope everyone had a Happy Easter or Passover.  Another holiday behind us.  Once again I got to host.  We had 14 for dinner.  The food was great!  We break with tradition and have shiskabob.  At this time of year we are ready for something other than ham or turkey.  This is also the first year no one believes in the "bunny".  My little guy finally knows the truth.  It is sad.  Of course, I forsed them to color eggs.  Let me tell you the 20 year old was thrilled.  He was so happy to go back to college with the loot from his basket.  The two oldest were happy last night raiding the house for food/drinks to bring back to school.

Spring is here soon it will be garden time.

My vote is for Grayson's charactors as well.  I have a feeling the wardrobe woman/man didn't like her.  They picked the worst costumes and the least flattering for her.  Only dress I can think of that really looked good on her was a blue dress and she only got to wear it mayble once.

Raineypack,
                     I went to my first festival last summer.  Let me tell you it took a lot of begging on my part for my hubby to concent to the trip.  I had a blast.  We only went Sat., our family stayed in Jersey with my sister.  We made it a family affair.  My sister, my hubby, daughter l8, who could have cared less, daughter 12, son l0, and me.  Hubby and older daughter came and went through out the day.  My younger two are DS fans so they were thrilled to go.  TLS was so very wonderful, my than 12 year old had written her a letter before the fest and she had replied.  When we met her she commemted to my daughter that her name sounded so familiar.  She told her about the letter.  I laughed with her and told her this was my mid-life crisis.  She thought that was funny and harmless.  We totally enjoyed the poetry reading by David Selby.  My sister and I almost fainted when we saw him walk in.  I was totally impressed with how wonderful they were with the children attending.  David wrote a wonderful little note in my daughters program, very sweet.  It felt very safe for kids.  I was a kid of course meeting all the stars.  Denise N. was very interested in my son, having a boy about the same age.  Donna W. was so very sweet she told me how great my kids were and hoped we would come again.  John K. offered me a sip of his wine.  It was a blast.  My only regret was that I never met any of the other fans from this forum.  My sister who is not a real fan had so much fun too.  She is more than willing to go again.

Willie.  He really got stuck with the worst jobs.  

Birdie-Sherman---or Birdie the blind.

My theory is all families are dysfunctional.

Carol,
        A white kitchen floor!  We had our house built 8 years ago and we had a light floor.  last year I put tile in brick red to hide the dirt.hehe.  Now I claim  the kitchen floor is dirty and no one can tell.hehe.  My kitchen is huge too. But the computer is in the family room right next door..So while I cook, bake, clean, it is right there... I bet Willie washed the floors...

Birdie--who dreams of tall dark and handsome men with blue eyes.  Don't tell my husband.

I thought I would share this with all you mature posters.  I have worn hard contact lens since 1975.  Yes, hard lens, an allmost unheard of thing.  Anyway I have a eye infection and can't wear them.  My glasses are the same ones I wore in 1975.  When I went to the eye Dr.  My eye dr. is just one year olere than me and remembered the style very well. I didn't think he would stop laughing.  My co-workers were just about ready to fall on the floor.  One of they is now calling me Simon and Peebody.  Remember Rocky and Bullwinkle?  She even sent me a e-mail with a picture of the charactors.  Wish I could send it on.  But I am compurter challenged.
I keep asking for a new glasses perscription but the dr. says don't fill it, you will just waste your money.

Birdie--or Simon for the next few days.   Maybe you all will laugh just thinking about it

I am one of the non-believers.  I think there are too many really scary things out there.  Horrid illnesses, maniacs who choose violence,  natural disasters, I don't think that the super natural has a chance against these things.  True evil.
