LiLi logic!

LIli wanted to cut things out yesterday so her & I made christmas ornaments.  Then Deidre showed her how to make snowflakes & before you know we were redecorating her tree.


 Do you see Santa under the tree?  Thurs night at her concert,  the principal of her school, Mr C, dressed up as Santa & walked down the aisle of the auditorium after the kids were all out on the stage together.  The older kids knew who it was & were shouting out "Mr C".  Dani & I were looking at each other hoping this would all go over LiLi's head.  While we were decorating the tree I asked her about Santa coming to her concert & she said:

LILI:That wasn't Santa that was Mr Claus"


Me: "But isn't Santa's name Santa Claus?"


LiLi: "Yes but his first name is Santa.  That was Mr Claus...his first name is Mr & he was just helping Santa!"
 Here she is telling me who everyone is in her nativity set.....she named everyone except for the one in her hand which was a shepherd holding a sheep.  When I asked who that was she said

LiLi:  "This is Mary"


Me:  "Isn't that Mary with baby Jesus?"


LiLi:  "Yes but this is also Mary...you know Nana..... Mary had a little lamb"
LiLi you have to promise me you will stay this age forever!

    I laughed out loud at the Mary had a little lamb line. Priceless.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BIG BROTHER

Happy birthday to my big brother Terry...........have a wonderful day!

Yea for Don the repair guy!

My new BFF is Don the repair guy who came today to fix the dishwasher. Amazingly, after he took the door apart it would close - I really did not believe the handle was broken but was defective! It had never felt right........always kinda loose. Anyway he decided that as long as we had a new handle he would install it & even gave me the old one as a back-up. Works much better now. Funny story - while he was here he got a phone call from the office telling him one of his earlier repairs of the day had called saying their dishwasher would not start at all. He called the lady back & suggested different things for her to try but nothing worked. He said he would stop back after his next call to see what it could be. As he hung up I said "Sounds to me like she has the "child lock control" on!". Sure enough after another phone call that turned out to be the problem! Maybe I need a change of careers!!!!!

46 years ago...............................

Today is our anniversary & I  have decided this post will be my version about how we met.......Popster's version would more than likely not be the same but that's how we roll! It was new year's eve 1963....yikes!.......I was a telephone operator in a little town called Huntingdon in England.  It was about 3 miles from Alconbury, an amercan air force base.  All calls went thru our switchboard including ones from the base so consequently we got to know all the GIs.  we would meet them at the Nickel Coin.........pictured here during our coffee..... or should I say tea?....breaks & lunch hours.  Whenever some newbies were transfered in they would be brought to town to meet the local girls. It was not "love at first sight"......I thought he was kinda nerdy & he thought I was a "stuck-up english broad"!  It was a few weeks later when he asked me to go to the movies that I realized he wasn't so "nerdy", so I guess we'll call
