Jane is doing quite well this morning. We are sitting at dueling laptops and discussing current events and family news. One of our hot topics this morning is wig VS turban. Wigs are nice and all but nothing says "fancy" like a nice turban. If you need a mental picture, Chevy Chase in National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. I personally think the jewel encrusted brooch in the center is not only feminine, it also adds an air of sophistication, sort of like a swami.
Fonzy is very busy trying to add his 10 cents through persistent nose bumps on the keyboard. I'm beginning to hear the gunslinger showdown music every time we lock eyes. I think I drank 14 hairs in my coffee this morning. All I can hope is that they are not hiny hairs.
So, here are ten things you probably didn't know about your dear friend:
1. She hates surprise parties. My mom could have been a caterer but never an emcee.
2. She is quite feisty in the car- inlcuding, but not limited to hand gestures at times (I know!!)
3. She has never had a cup of coffee while wearing a white shirt and not spilled some on herself (true story).
4. Michael is her favorite child.
5. She is somewhat fond of Elvis.
6. Her favorite color is RED (just like me!!)
7. When she feels sick, no matter how wretched, cinnamon rolls fix it.
8. The only time she has sweet coffee is in the fall and only pumpkin spice lattes from Starbucks.
9. She can stretch out a quick trip for bread and milk to the grocery store into a two hour shopping excursion. In fact, if she offers to go to the store, it's probably to go decompress. She likes to go and peruse in solitude- this I did not inherit.
10. She is a gifted artist. She drew letter faces on every lunch sack she ever made for me and Melissa, complete with flower hats and the like. I never saw anybody else with such a cute lunch bag. And, it usually had a love note tucked in as well.
Do you feel like you know her even better now? Have a great day and don't forget to pray!

Another fact is that she was "Ethel" while my dear mom, her friend, LaRue was "Lucy". They were a great pair. Friends like that don't happen very often.
ReplyDeleteThat is true. We have I Love Lucy on the Tivo for her. I know she thinks of her everytime we watch it.
