Hello, hello

Well, hello Beautiful!  Yes-I'm talking to you-the one in red.  Aren't you gorgeous, Dawling!




Our black, ugly duckling, cordless, answering machine phone was on it's last leg.  It wouldn't dial 3 for the last year or so (which meant I had to go upstairs and get the other cordless) and I swear nearly everybody I want to call has a 3 in their number.  Also, it wouldn't hang up unless it was put on the receiver or hold a charge long.  Sooooo- I was googling red retro phones and came across this red beauty.  No answering machine, no caller id, no cordless-but worth the 38 bucks I spent on her.  Cause, ain't she just sooooooo pretty?  And my sister said I sounded louder and clearer.  And the cord reaches the computer.  And she has an old fashioned ring-brrriiinngggg, brrriinngggg.  And ain't she just sooooooo pretty?   I'll figure out what to do about the no answering machine, no caller id, no cordless someday.

~And just wait until I show you my new ice cream maker!~

PS-It's apparent that I'm no minimalist!

I hope you all have a fabulous Friday.

Bye, bye!

Of course! I haven't used it yet, but I'm determined to.

Dawnie-Mom and I went to see Minnie today. It was after lunch, so it wasn't a very good time-she was sleepy. But-Rhonda, we talked to Jean. She seemed really good.
