Happy B, T!

My new vest from Orlando.

Just picked up Pippi and I am happy to say she loves her daycare. She didn’t want to go home and asked me, “Mommy, we go tomorrow?”
Peter and I went to “Changeling” last night–very disturbing movie but basically well done. I like the Canadian cops. I recognized some of the actors as being Canadian. Also, I love 1920’s fashions. The men look so suave.
Peter is in Vancouver today.
Making progress on my University work. Three hours fly by in the morning.

And a big Happy Birthday to my sister Theresa
She will forever be the long-legged, mother hen, trying desperately to lead her flock of wild little sisters in and out of trouble! Into trouble: Exhibit A. Encouraging a “skip school and ride down town on a bus” field trip to explore the cellar in an antique store for possible treasure.
Exhibit B. Running  around the neighborhood at night in our nighties, removing a neighborhood bully’s bike from his yard and hiding it in the trees along the riverbank.
Exhibit C. Marching around the neighborhood in our new panties and undershirts because Theresa convinced us all they looked like the latest “hot pants” style outfits.
Exhibit D….I could go on and on about all the shenanigans we got up to but here is a final word on the “out of trouble” category:
Exhibit A. Slapping the face of a nasty little neighbor because she had hit me first.
Exhibit B. Helping us all pour out our diet pops, outside the Saturday matinee, at the movie theatre–after we’d been discovered trying to smuggle them in.
Exhibit C. Telling us that incredible ghost story she wrote, about the wax doll, in the dark.
