What Day Is This? Oh! Day 15!

You all know I am blonde...
and ditzy...
and forgetful!
How did I get confused
on the day count?
I thought...
that explains it...
I thought!

That won't happen again!

The girl in this vintage photo
is obviously not blonde...


There is so much to look at
in this photo...
the hand tinting...
the umbrella...
the dog...
the fence...
the gate...
the wooden house...
the mimosa tree...
the stockings wrinkled at the knees!

My stockings are not wrinkled at the knees...
because I don't wear stockings.
However, my mind may be wrinkled
in a place or two!

For those of you keeping up with
our journey,
Lurch and I are meeting with
his spine surgeon today.
We will let a smile be our umbrella!

Hey Girl, what's with the "blonde bashing"? Isn't that called discrimination. We can't "help" the way we are, we were born this way! I love the photo though.
Take care, Sue

You and Lurch are in my prayers today. Please keep us posted.

I do love the photo. And the umbrella smiles. I could use a few of those myself.

Happy Friday,
Jen

Isn't that surgeon in Dallas? Are you here?

Is that one of those skirt/short jobs, she is wearing? ~Mindy

Hey, friends! We just got back from Dallas. Looks like surgery will be in February. They will let us know the date this coming week. Surgery may be a little more extensive than we were hoping, but we want healing to move forward! Thanks for all your prayers! Skorts? Umbrella girl was a trend setter! :)

Your attitude is wonderful! Glad your visit went well. And also glad you behaved and didn't end up in any 'highway incident with the Texas Rangers'. I'm just saying...
