Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread

Just typed something and lost it...

GOOD MORNING ALL -

Terry, what I said earlier, in my lost post is - I think that is an excellent idea to give everyone an ornament to hang. DO IT... say you planned that all along. You can start a tradition. And while I agree w/Debbie about your busy life (and have told you so too) - I also think you need to
be running and have drama.... That's what makes you thrive and
gives you the energy you only think you don't have. Don't change!


Janet, thanks for my video and song. It/she reminded me of a search
I did on my grandmother - well Francesca Schiavo ended up being a
dancer and what appeared to be a soft porn star. LOL... When I was
in Italy once, I stopped in a road-side bathroom to pee. On the inside
of the door was a message written in Italian: translated it read "call
Anna Schiavo for a good time" - guess i have some heritage in the
old country I'm not aware of... LOL once again!


Pinto, you can tell Suzie's house by the Christmas lights... :-)
Yes, that is my husband's car; had it launched this week for a
truck ride down to Florida. That's why we needed to take pictures.
He's waiting for it to arrive any minute. (Terry, yes - that's his
baby - like Mike's porche). I had to help the guy load it on to
one of those big trucks that haul cars; he was all alone - so I
got to operate the equipment. Funny! Froze my ass off - didn't
break a nail.. Did you go work for Ford because you are a Pinto?


Janet - the cat in tree is great... You should submit that to a contest.
(Can you send me it in email, would like to share w/some friends).
Your granddaughter is absolutely beautiful. Oh my - get the shotgun
ready. I'd put her in a glass buble. God Bless...


You all have such beautiful grandchildren --GOD BLESS AGAIN!
Suzie..... not sure if I mentioned yours a few days ago.. I recall
seeing them.


Geri, I got your family pic too.. Yes, Blessings again. And I voted for
the Animal Shelter..... Bad news for me - I went to the link to adopt a
pet... the Good news was - I had to log on to do it... so I didn't..
Thank God... Maybe sometime in the future.


Debbie - hang in there. Daughters - hang in there with Moms...
Steve, and all who are fighting some type of battle today....


Hi to all - not meaning to exclude anyone - those were some specifics I
needed to say. Off to errands on this cold day.


Love & Peace!

Good Morning Terry, Janet, Anthony, Joe P.

Debbie - Good to hear from you. We are all here for you.

Anthony M........... Welcome. I do know a few of the people you mentioned. 2 lived on my block 20th near 7th.

Franny, I sent you the picture.

Terry, about to put the lights on. I think it ia a cute idea to let the guests put a few ornaments on the tree. It would make it special.

Joe, as you can see, I am working on it.

Loretta Falcone (Napoli) wrote: Good morning Geri. I think Patsy needs a new name - how about Greased Lightin" or the Road Runner. Seriously, God Bless her energy - wish she could bottle it - I'd buy some!!

Janet - you'll get the tree up eventually. Maybe you should just put it up & leave it bare...tell everyone your going au natureal this year....you could start a new trend, I know a lot of harried homemakers would thank you (lol).

Loretta - I do wish I had Patsy's energy. Got up early and I had all intentions of getting started early, but fell back asleep again after blogging for a little while. Now I have to move like lighting to catch up... lol

Debbie - So happy to see you came on today. Think of you all the time. I haven't spoken to Aunt Dee in a while either. Please keep in touch with us because we love you & are concerned too. Have a Merry Christmas & I hope Santa brings lot of wonderful things to you & the family.... XOX

Well I think I am alone again... Boo Hoo....

Terry - Were you the one that said you saw the Argano's that lived next to me on 5th avenue. My brother asked when this blog began if any one knew where Michael Argano was. They were good friends growing up. If you know, I would like to give Johnny the information.... Thanks!
