Does that mean you actually wanted to be tagged??????? That would be a first. Kinda like me really, really, wanting to do jury duty.

I figured the two Angelas were too busy to be bothered:)

Adrienne said...

.........but, feel free to participate anyway.

BTW, I LOVE Fred Astaire -- and when it's wintertime, what do you do -- other than raising plants? Or can you raise them all year?

Adrienne said...

Gem - I "do" ebay. People always ask what I sell. I'll sell anything (within reason) that I think someone may want. I love ebay.

All my plants are sold online too. I cannot afford to have some little old lady (like me) coming over,taking up a whole afternoon, and then spending $5.00.

So Tony Soprano is your hero, hu?

Hey, Adrienne, you got connections? My buddies and I got a little favor to ask ya. We got this...shall we say, nuisance with a big mouth to get rid of and we was wondering if you could assist. Maybe ol' Tony has a spot to put these things away for good, or maybe your garden needs a little fertiliza. Ya catch my drift?

ROFL!

That was my hoodlum impression:0)

Boy, you certainly have had some pretty fabulous experiences, and overcame some very challenging obstacles.

You're tough as nails. Remind me to always stay on your good side, IRREGARDLESS of what you do to me.

LOL!

Sorry, but I couldn't resist:0)

Tom, Tom, Tom --- Tony never soils his own hands. That's what Cousin Vinnie is for.

I'm not really tough as nails - just a big bowl of Jell-O who absolutely abhors confrontation -irregardless of the circumstances.

You have great facts. I wish I could dance. When my husband and I worked for Boeing, they offered ballroom dance classes. I quickly found that not everyone could dance...my husband couldn't tell his left foot from his right twice in a row ;}

Congrats on the years with AA! I went to an AA meeting once with a friend who had been sober for several years just to see what it was like.

I have some family in Spokane and my dad did his basic training in Coeur d'Alene during WWII. Nice area.

Curious what zone you are in? Isn't the soil by you very sandy? I loved spring in Seattle with all the Rhodies and tulips. Hard to grow much of that back here in Zone 4.

"I'm not really tough as nails - just a big bowl of Jell-O who absolutely abhors confrontation."

Perhaps resilient might be a better description...but with a kind heart!

Adrienne, you wouldn't need to do the confrontation. Along with Tom, I can think of a few ...'er "things" that need to be planted. Did you see Hitchcock's READ WINDOW? [Jimmy Stuart was "da man." I loved Grace Kelley's "casual" look.]

gemoftheocean said...

oops! REAR Window!

You can dance in high heels? You're my hero, Adrienne. I fall over wearing flats. Routinely.
