Judy, I'm down here 27 Years. My son turns 27 on the 20th of jan. My daughter turned 18 today. Did your 26 year old wrestle?

Tim...Geez, I hope not, my 26 year old is a GIRL.....LOL LOL . But between my daughter Crystal and my son Michael who is 18, I am sure they went to some school together or played some sport together. My kids went to Southard School and then Middle School North, I think, now I don't remember.

Yes, sometimes I say, wow, I made it thru the 60's lol. My boys are still my boys.

Suzie, again with the gravy and sauce lol. We all know it's gravy on macaroni lmao.

Hope Ralphie does not see that!!!!

Hello Judy.

Tim ,my 26 year old went to Middle School North. Deana Went to Middle School South and is in her last lear at Howell High

Julie Andrews turned 69.....

To commemorate her birthday , actress/vocalist, Julie Andrews made a special appearance at Manhattan 's Radio CityMusic Hall for the benefit of the AARP.
One of the musical numbers she performed was 'My Favorite Things' from the legendary movie 'Sound Of Music'. Here are the lyrics she used:
> > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >> > > > > > > > >
(Sing It!)- If you sing it, its especially hysterical!!!

Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting,
Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings,
Bundles of magazines tied up in string,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Cadillacs and cataracts ,and hearing aids and glasses,
Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses,
Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

When the pipes leak, When the bones creak,
When the knees go bad,
I simply remember my favorite things,
And then I don't feel so bad.

Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for bunions,
No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions,
Bathrobes and heating pads and hot meals they bring,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Back pain, confused brains and no need for sinnin',
Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinnin',
And we won't mention our short shrunken frames,
When we remember our favorite things.

When the joints ache, When the hips break,
When the eyes grow dim,
Then I remember the great life I've had,
And then I don't feel so bad.

(Ms. Andrews received a standing ovation from the crowd that lasted over four minutes and repeated encores. Please share Ms. Andrews' clever wit and humor with others who would appreciate it).

Millie, thanks I'll tell Ellen.....her actual birthday is on the 20th also

Ronnie, spent a lot of time around Franks through the years also, I know we're having a hard time with names but I did know Dotsie.

Judy, Thank You also

Paul, your kidding, wow that makes three that I know of cool. I did not read the previous pages.

Hi Mildred...How are you today...Are you keeping warm....I can't believe how cold it is outside.

Am I stepping into a joke here? LOL

I couldn't believe how cold it was this morning when I walked the dogs, it was 10. I have to walk one at a time because they are large. My house still feels a little cold with the hot air you know. In about one more hour, I should walk them again.

Paul, I would be careful lol.

WOW all these janusry babies... All these dads get lucky around April

Timmy you are too funny!!

UH OH About time for a new page

Almost.......................

My wife just called..she's meeting my daughter at the mall with the grandkids......this is gonna get expensive, LOL

Sounds like it Paul. Just give in. lol.

Its always expensive when the wife meets the kids at the mall but it could
get even more expensive when dad goes

Hi Everyone....


Judy that was the cutest thing...from Julie Andrews....how true is that!!


Ronnie - if your a Legal Secretary ...you may know more than us ...just like Judy up there!
Cut & paste is probably just like copy & paste ....but you just want to copy the html code

Glitter-graphics above .....and it will take you to the site....

Tim - your funny ...now I know why my daughter was born in October .....today is a day to

Paul ..... Im serious ...no joke .....swear! (cross my heart)


Hi Millie .... where the heck is Ralph ....your in touch with them .....everything is ok with them ...right ???

the kids will sometimes take pity on mom but never on dad

I don't have to give in Millie...I did'nt have a say in it to begin with,lol

But I don't care really....I'd give them anything they want if I could.

Tim, Hi.

Paul, that's so funny that you call her Dotsie and we always called her Dottie. Hung out with her cousin Suzanne Heinz also. Chickie Connors, Marlene Hertzel and plenty more. Dottie married Dennis Lauterbach.

Judy wonderful tribute to Julie Andrews.

Hi Suzie

Hi Tim, I will ask my kids if they remember your kids.....

Tim, now I lost all of my brain cells, when I saw your name Tim Fox and I think you mentioned you had a brother Billy...I don't know why but the name Billy Brown came to mind...don't ask why...but my husband knew a Billy Brown not a Billy Fox. lol lol lol

I guess being a typist (ha ha you would never know it by some of my posts) but the first thing you learn in typing class is a sentence that contains all 26 letters which is "... The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" ...I don't know I guess I got my browns and foxes all mixed up. lol lol

Hi Tim .....how's the furnace .....still pumping ????

Hi Ronnie

Paul, I know, I was just kidding around.

Suzie, everything is aok I guess. How is your day going?

Judy...whats going on at the job ...is it quiet?
