Sock Girl The Update

Apparently Spring has warranted a new wardrobe. We no longer have socks.  I am a bit sad, I miss them.  They cheered me up, made a sock girl sighting all that more fun and exciting.

But she has switched up the bling. She now wears 4 or 5 necklaces at a time.....chunky and small and long and short.....

I may have to rename her Bling Girl..........

Brain Fart

I have to admit, the older I get, the more my brain farts (ok so does my rear end but we are ladies and we don't fart, we fluff and we don't discuss such delicate matters  right?).


The boy had a dentist appt.  Because of the extreme trauma involved with a trip to the dentist, he was promised donuts if he was good.  Today the boy was good!  No screaming, no biting of the dentist, no holding down of the boy by the burly dentist.  He earned the donuts. Oh and no cavities! 


So after alex’s dental appt we stop over at Bakers to get him a donut (yeah I know right after the dentist, but hey he didn’t bite the dentist because of the donut) and this gals runs me down in the parking lot  “Peanut, Peanut Hi (not my real name of course she was yelling my real name like it's a big secret huh)”  I had no friggin clue who she was…………..and then she said Pam……….I’m like mmmmhmmm kay….Pam?  What Pam's do I know?


Talk about a complete blank! She had shades on and while that didn't help, there was nothing familiar about this person at all.   I nodded and smiled and chatted about the weather. Thankfully the boy was waving his donuts in her face, so that was a distraction from the fact I was standing in front her with my mouth hanging open.

So I run into work and the first I do is look up Pam’s on FB and the couple in my town aren’t her. Crap.  Who was this person?  Was she my personal genie and I failed to make three wishes?  Did she have a big ole giant check, with many zeros on it, just waiting for me in the back of her suv?


The Pam searched returned friends who have children with down syndrome. Lo and behold, up pops ANNE....


OHHHHHHHH Anne!!! Now I know who she is.....duh. She's the admin for our ds group....


geesh. 

Prayers For Harry

Harry is a cute yellow lab.  Harry ate some things that were not good for a yellow lab.  He's a very sick puppy. 

Please send up a prayer for Harry and Harry's mom, The Zadge.  I know they'd both appreciate it!

Stanford and Sammie are sending up the best furry pal prayers they can!

Bazzy Mazzy

What is that you say?  Made ya look!

Why it's Barry Manilow!  And 30 of us Fanilows went to the concert last night.  It was so much fun!  We sang and danced, laughed and cried.  We had matching tshirts! No really, we did!

You gotta love the photobomber.  No we did not take him to the concert!

Poor Barry was hurting. He had hip surgery two months ago and it showed.  Towards the end he was barely moving.  But dude can sing!  And so could we!

And the Bazzy Mazzy? Well according to my new friend Vicki (a Brit) that's his nickname across the pond........but she's kind of "spazzy" so who knows?

I grew up with Barry. We all crushed on him.  I remember crying in my room to his songs....as a nerdy teenager......where does time go?

He also told a story about his grandfather and played a record he recorded with him, when Barry was 5! He said he owed it all to his grandfather....made me cry. See this week is my grandparent's "birthday week". Their bdays are a week apart and we always celebrated in the middle! I've been missing them!

Highly recommend you go if you're a fan...you won't regret it. And the tickets are very affordable!
