61 years ago Dad & I were married on a cold, foggy night. 61 sounds like so many years but it seems like yesterday. Lots of pleasant memories.
John called the other nite -- he had good news. John & Fe will have a son or daughter later this summer. They are very happy.
I called Millie & John had called her. In our conversation Millie said "I bet you are happy about the Pittsburgh Steelers". I said "very happy!" She was disappointed in her N.E. team.
Do you ever hear Jeannie Most ? (sp, but that's the way it sounds). Yesterday she had a story about the latest "thing". Eye gazing when dating. No conversation. 18 seconds of gazing into each other's eyes & getting the message. No blinking. It was so cute & she has such a good way of telling these stories.
Also Craig Wilson of USA Today had a cute article on retirement. The first group of baby boomers turned 60. Wonder how many of the parents are till happily married.
Marisa is having problems with depression & saw the Dr. yesterday. That is so sad for a young person.
Last nite Barb & Larry were talking about the TV show "American Idol". Barb watched it for the first time Tues. nite & couldn't get over the lack of talent. Both Lar & Barb treat it as a joke. If the contestant was bad, they started swearing at the judges & one said what does Paula know. Lar also watches "Desperate Housewives" & like it. Kim falls asleep during the program. Last nite I watched the Pittsburgh Penguins beat Wn. 8-1. Finally they won a game. They have a great young player, Sidney Crosby, who will be a star hockey player. He's only 20 years old & can really play.
Winter is back. We got enough snow to shovel but the temps are suppose to rise. It was cold this A.M., when I put the garbage out. Yesterday when it was snowing & blowing, Dale had to go to Pittsburgh for school. He got home safe & sound but said the driving wasn't too good.
Mon. when we went to the Mall, I got a new puzzle. Small floral design. Started it & it won't be an easy one, but there is no rush to finish it.
The library's annual report is so good & what makes it so interesting are the graphs you have explaining the money, use of books, etc. Interesting to hear of your retirement plans. It will be here before you know it. You have made the library an excellent situation for the next director.
Alice Nasman gave me a pair of slacks a 14 petite & they fit beautifully, esp. around the rear. Even the length is good. I've been getting Brigg's slacks but they are a little large in the hips & I don't like the look but still wear them. Took in the back seam some & that helps.
When Lar & Kim come Wed. nites, Thurs. seems like an extra day. I don't do much. Will work on the puzzle & on Thursday. After lunch I plan to make a peanut butter pie. It's for the freezer & dessert for Dale.
Fri. the 27th
Today is Bob's 50th birthday. He anted to spend it in Fla. with Lynn but that didn't happen. Lynn didn't want to leave Marisa & Scott alone, esp. since Marisa is still seeing her "bad" boyfriend. Instead Marisa is taking time off because of her moods & will go to Fla. to be with her grandparents -- Lynn's folks. She will spend 2-3 months down there & hopes (folks) she will forget Dan, a real loser. Why are nice girls attracted to bad boys & he has been bad since teens & before. His folks like Marisa because they hope she can change him.
Sunny day but it was 9 this A.M.
