Jim, I'm a couple of days late, but I also want to wish Paul Hansen a very Happy Birthday. Some of our classmates - Paul among them - have chosen not to participate in these wonderful exchanges. Having said that, it doesn't alter the fact that I have wonderful memories of him - most of them after BHS. Paul and his friend Tom Hill pursued their music and performed at Gerde's Folk City at Greenwich Villiage in NYC. I had the good fortune to be there with them and have nothing but admiration for them. Paul, from what I know, has followed that musical path and his Christian beliefs as a minister. We have all made our own paths, but I have always, and still do, loved and admired Paul. He is amazingly creative and I will forever be grateful to have been in his company.

This is a time-change weekend so remember to set your clocks ahead one hour saturday night. The gloomy, murky monday mornings will last an hour longer, but it'll be (hopefully) sunny and cheerful for an extra hour around dinner time, Or, as my old friend Rod Grams once said on the floor of the US Senate: "Lipstick on a goat." He was talking about something else but it could apply with the time changes.

This is also a good time to change your furnace filters, smoke alarm batteries and even your computer passwords. 

Be well and safe, everyone!

Sring is here in Michigan!!! Our resident ducks have returned to "squat" in the murky water on top of our pool cover. For about a half hour rested on the deck railing before re joining the mate in the pool.

Sandy, this van Gogh thing is hysterical, except that the correct pronunciation is "van Gok". Never-the-less, you have inspired me. So, I'm adding a few of my own versions - all made up this afternoon. Hope they bring a few more laughs. What's next? Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Sandra Jeakins (Singletary Sizemore)

Melvin, you are very clever with the responses to Van Gogh.  You, too, Jim.  I didn't make any of those up.  i copied and pasted them from Facebook.  I'm not clever when it comes to thinking of things like that. They did make me chuckle.

Hi All,

Let's hear a Hip, Hip, Hooray!  I have a new hip and am up walking using a walker.  I did have a little trouble on the way to the hospiral for the operation - my prosthetic leg fell off and I ended up carrying it in with me:

Try as I might, I could not rotate the image- but you get the idea.

 

Dog Pictures:

 

This is Dog - my constant companion anytime i was inside the wire and for whom I had to find a puppy sitter when going out for a stroll?

His favorite C-ration meal was Ham & Eggs, chopped with a dash of hot sauce.  His least favorite meal, like mine was Ham & Lima Beans.

 

This is our current Granddog, Frida.  We (Dorothy) watch her on Wednesday & Thursday when Erin has late office hours at NEIU.

 

3 year old standard poodle - very smart, but a little wierd at the same time - she loves to be petted, but will sit just out of arms length so I have to stretch for the privledge of scratching her ears.

Thank you for the name correction as it seems to be a name of spellings many ways.  I still get mail to Dianne Uban and Dianne with only one n.  I answer to all!  Susie I hope your day was peaceful and fun!  Hard to believe that number but it's only a number.  Each day fills me with gratitude and appreciation for so many of my friends from BHS.  Happy Spring to all of you and I hope to see you in August.
