Kim, I like your new byline...
Aly, don't worry if you don't understand us all, we don't either. As Susan said, everyone has different sayings in different parts of the country. For instance, Mass. is the only area where for some reason we say "wicked" all the time (think I described this a week or so ago). That's what started the DD talk...
We don't say y'all up here in Mass., and up in Vermont, we're either called "Flatlanders" or "M*******s"
Add the creative spelling that not only we have but the computer does, and we all scratch our heads sometimes. I think that's what makes it fun though. We're going to have fun trying to figure each other out at times!
Di, nothing like being surrounded by 6 little kids... I always throw in food as soon as they started getting cranky! pizza!
Weather changed here, now it's supposed to be in the 80's today, not the cold spell they've been saying all week.... keeps the weathermen on their toes. There's an old saying that if you don't like the weather in New England, just wait a minute.
Roommate's dad came by yesterday, hopefully he'll be getting most of her stuff out today... thank goodness he's helping her (and me) out. Even paid what I asked for in the rent, which was about half of what she owed, but I'm just glad to get that amount. She's still in the "hospital" for lack of a better word, dealing with a nervous breakdown and emotiional issues. Poor thing is only 28, and I think was on more meds than me.
Aly, you'll be fine with the English couple, if not, sic your dogs on them, with any luck they'll be allergic! Why do you have the whole soccer team anyway? Glutton for punishment!
Love to you all, Susan I have to get out and bury our little statue today!
Helen
