Miss Betty Died

Our neighbor from Deer Run Road, Betty Dobbins, died on Monday. Not sure what the cause of death was, but she was only 74 years old.

Years ago I was standing on the front porch and Betty walked past the house carrying a broom. I said "Betty, why are you walking, is the motor broken?" She looks back at me smiling and says "Kiss my butt."

Not to be outdone...Randi's new job

Randi started a new job with WTAT-TV24 in the accounting department. If you want to take her to lunch, she loves Panera Bread near Tanger Outlet Mall. I'm very proud of both Susan and Randi.

She even got a raise!

Baer


We have been "owners" of a 2 year old Pomeranian named Baer since July 2007. Eight pounds of hyper describes him perfectly. He likes to sit in my lap when I drive.

Lynn-isms

What is a Lynn-ism? Well......Lynn's brain works a whole lot faster than her mouth, so when she thinks and then speaks, the two don't always synchronize properly, thus what she says sometimes are a blending of words or a brand new phrase altogether. Some examples follow:

1: OK, let's get this day on the road.

2: Your coffee cup is as round as mine is high.

3: OK, I hear the lights.

4: That's a fighty mine mess.

5: Let's get going, times a clockin'

6: The neighbors were up and early this morning.

7: That's a bunch of bull-larky (malarkey).

8: Even Baer was better-haven than you today (behaving better).

9: If worse comes to shove.

10: You sweat more than me because you're higher to the sun.

11: Angela and her dad are the splitting image of each other.
