You've Gotta Read This

Hello Nice People,

          Well, guess who slept in the back bedroom lastnight?  Me-me-me!

There was just one two many creatures in the bedroom.  These two........

 

And this guy...........................

I can put up with spiders, they don't bother me in the least.  I just put them outside.  Beatles, any kind of bug, but these little so and so's send me running and yelling for the ole boy to "Get in here and get this damn bug.   This is a Camel Cricket.  Regular black crickets I can deal with but these things.....they look at you and then they jump at you.  We haven't been bothered with them since last fall.  But here is the first one.  they come up through the heater vents.  Whenever I take a shower, I slowly pull the curtain back and check the tub, because they also come up the drain.
         Well,  the ole boy was outgunned by this one and he got away.  So you know, I am not sleeping in THAT room tonite either.
 
I wish he was this cute.
 
              I sent my answer back for my High School reunion.  the answer is "NO" i will not attend.  45 years since I  graduated from this building.
Atlantic City High School.  I had 3 good friends from 'Lantic High and they all have passed on.  And they all died young.  Pat died in her early 30's.  And she had just had a little boy.   She had moved out to Texas and passed away out there.  I tried to keep in touch with the husband but he just moved on.  Caroline passed away about 10 years ago in her 50's.  A sad situation.....I think she died of a broken heart.  So, I don't really want to go.  There would be too much missing, so why bother.
Me, 1963
 
         Monday is the day to go pick up my bus and get a new run.  I am hoping for another Casino run.  I put a little bug in the boss's ear that I had a good year last year, so I hope she took the hint.
                                 
So Monday is meeting day and then a dry run, then school starts on Wednesday September 3.  Wish me luck.

  1. I graduated in 1964 from Pompano Beach High School in So. Florida.  I never went to any of my reunions although I am still in e-mail touch with a couple of people I went to school with.  To much water under that bridge for me.  LOL.

  2. I graduated in 1960 from Franklin Pierce High and I haven't missed one!  I love them, love re-connecting with my school friends.  Of course we were a small rural school, only about 215 in the graduating class and I live like 4 miles from the school and have always lived here so I see a lot of people here & there. This last year I've hosted 2 potlucks for the gals from my class and we just have a wonderful time when we get together. Sunday we're going to a BBQ potluck at the home of one of the guys from my class.  My movie going friend, Barbara has been a close friend since we were in 6th grade. And I have 3 other friends that live out of town, that I'm still close to since grade school.  We have lost 1 dear friend to breast cancer in 1994...there were 4 of us out for lunch a couple weeks ago and we all talked about how much we miss her.  Sometimes I sit and wonder who will be next..we're all getting older.  You might enjoy it if you do go but then again you might not. It's just hard to say. Linda in WA

  4. I've never attended a reunion for my class.  I went to Kevin's 5th way back when, and we didn't have a good time, so we've never bothered to go back to any of them.  I hope you get the bus run you want.

  5. I love your graphics!! I hate crickets too... my husband used to have a bearded dragon for a pet. He ate only crickets and there were crickets everywhere making noises. Even escaped ones!! YUCK!!! finally he decided to find him a new home. No more crickets in the house. But i am terrifed of spiders. I think i could have a heart attack if i came near one. I used to not be like that. I used to let them crawl on me when i was younger. What happened to me?? lol Very cute picture. My Daisy sleeps with me like that. I have slept uncomfortable to not disturb her. I uess I am crazy! lol I dont have to worry about reunions. I didnt gradutate from high school. : ( I was stupid and dropped out. ..hugs, Christine
