Happy Birthday Linny Lou!

Tomorrow I'll head to the casino for lunch with the girls. We'll be celebrating the birthday of Linda Pedersen, who I will now display on my blog.
Here's me, Ruthie, and Linda in 1973. A Christmas party, I think. I had just started work at the clinic (topic of my next Town Kid blog) and I sure wish I had this picture full length 'cause I was a whole lot thinner then and not bad looking either.  Not a dish, of course, but definitely not a casserole bowl either.  ha ha

Here's me and Linda and Arlene Wheeler Stapf in the early 90's. This was taken in the billing office at the mill. Arlene was born Oct. 11, 1940 and died in Feb. '95, unfortunately. She was a character, that's for sure. Lots of laughs with that lady.

Here's Linda, Ruth, me and Ruth at the county fair maybe last year?

It's looking mighty gray, wet, and overcast today, but I'm sure thankful we don't have to deal with Hurricane Sandy's aftermath.  Their problems have only just begun.

Got an email from Rose Johnson yesterday with "helpful tips."  I had seen some of them before but I have a tendency to forget  so it was interesting to see them again. This was my favorite.
Gotta get busy around here.  Woke up with a sinus headache and I think I'd best go search my medicine cabinet for a decongestant.   Gonna make some cinnamon rolls too (if I can muster the energy).  My to-do list is mostly "fun stuff at my leisure".....finish a quilt, transcribe diary notes, press two completed cross-stitch designs, work on my jigsaw puzzle, read, nap, and oh yeah..at the bottom of the list....EXERCISE!  Here's hoping I can work it in.  ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Here's some commercials.... good ones!
