Oh Pep, that was great! I saved it to my favorites and I am going to make everyone sit down crossed legged on the floor during break and have a calming experience. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
2long,
We were at our hippie friends' house a few weekends ago and he got out his claw N hammer (or is it hammerclaw? round with no back) fiddle and played Paint it Black for me. It was the coolest thing, and of course he always has his coveralls on when he plays his fiddles.
After that he offered to make us some tea out of some kind of plant that may or may or not have been legal...LOL we settled for the cowboy coffee with goats milk, as usual. He's my favorite of hubbies friends so far...just don't get him start on the Christians...man, don't do it. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />
Anyway for your Thursday morning Stairway to Heaven listening pleasure.
They had a fiddle trio come around 2 play for us, and they asked me what I'd like 2 hear, so I said "Stairway 2 Heaven?" ...but they didn't know that one.
Were people in the 50's really that sweet, innocent and easily amused? With their clean cut hair, short-sleeved white, button down shirts, and cute poodle skirts?
I so want to be back in the 50's... have the girls over for afternoon Bridge and finger sandwiches.
I want Andy Griffith to be our local sheriff and Aunt Bea to be my doting aunt.
Man, I am so amazed. Where the heck is Ark. She's not too proud to be as totally and completely amazed as I am.
I knew I should have been shoving a guitar in that kid of mines hands, instead of the stupid rattle and light up Pajama Barnie. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
LOL.. oh yeah, the kid with the guitar is simply amazing.. theres another couple of kid virtuoso's out there.. I'm sure could be found on YouTube with minimal effort <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Hey !! I hope you are doing really well. It's good to see you around. P is just fine? The two of you are also?
2long, How's it going? Any change on the home front? The house finished? The rest of the family doing well? Work still exciting?

SS,
GB, P and I are doing so well, we're practically illegal! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I gave you an update on P awhile ago, but you must have missed. She is doing the best she has done since before the whole custody thing. In fact, straight A's and student of the month all in the first semester. What a load off my mind.
Take it, 2long! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I want to sell Tupperware.
LOL! Josie!

No, just visit. I do enjoy the occasional cuss word every now and then. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
PS, I hope you are doing well, Charlotte. I know this has been such a hard time for you. You sure do have a great personality though, so for this reason I know you are going to have a GREAT life, no matter what!
SS, I'm glad we found each other, too. Although marriage has been a little different for us both...I think we are really going to make. We seem to have started to adjust!
I hope you and your whole family is well, too! Well, better than well, fantastic!

LOL! and Thank You, Josie!!!
It has been hard but it's been getting so much easier every day. I never thought I would get here. Never. I thought my life was over. Geez, isn't that silly? All of that noise over an alien? Well, maybe one day I will thank him for being such a fool. Who knows? LOL!
My sister and I were just going through papers and photos we saved of my dad's, and I found this 3x5 card with a music reference for my mom that had a poem my dad wrote on it. He used 2 doodle a lot, 2, but there weren't any on this card.
"If you go slow The grass will grow In little green rows Between your toes.
If you go fast In a rocket blast Your future will Be part of your past."
2, I'm glad you get to know your dad a little better. It's one of the ties that bind us to another generation, but somehow it seems to bind us to ourselves too.
Thanks for sharing.
SS
I think sometimes about all the pain in the world. I hope we can ease that here, even if only a little bit.
