well, hello there!

Hello friends! I realized that I have been a blog slacker when I had this conversation... Brian- "Did you update your blog?" Me- "No" Brian- "Oh" (rolls eyes) Sheesh! *smile* So, here we go... This is my beautiful friend Gerda. She is from Germany and has a wonderful accent. I adore her. She 'gets' me. I have resorted to wearing my hair in a 'chip clip' for 2 reasons, actually 3 : 1. it is hot in Texas 2. I'm attemping to grow it out a bit 3. did I mention it's hot? Little celebrated her birthday this month... Oh, to be 8 again & lick birthday candles with abandon!
