Dear Folks,
Wonderful Valentine's day for the federally employed. Three days of vacation with health benefits!
Anyway; Howie and I walked this weekend and I wore a backpack with 25 lbs of weight during the walk. 25# is suggested for most adults backpacking, but, as my daughters know, I am stronger than most men so I'll eventually train up to 50#s; sometimes there are some ladies who hike with us and we real men should carry their packs too( Jeff, how many pounds did we carry at Philmont?)
Barb and I watched two movies this weekend: Godfather part I, and part of(no pun intended)Godfather part II. We will go to a movie today: I'm rooting for the new Leonardo Caprio horror film, but she who must be obeyed will make the final decision.
Barb and I went to the play Abby directed Friday night: great!!!! Abby worked very hard as she always does for her craft.
Abby and Barb bought a gorgeous prom dress for Abby yesterday; she is striking.( remember my girls: Beth, Abby and Kristin- "the clothes don't make the girl, the girl makes the clothes").
Believe it or not I had to put a hold on "Homage" so I'll be starting a bit late; but, the fact someone else in Urbana is reading it shows how literate a community is Urbana!
Well, I need to up my lithium level a tad as I am in one of my "over the top" moods this morning, but, ain't mania great!!
Love you all dearly, especially "all my children"( Colin, you were to send me an email with a picture of you, Beth, Abby, AND Kristen that I can use as a header; where is it my man?
love,
daddio

Dad,
ReplyDeleteI'll try to find one but there isn't a pic with just us four youngsters yet that I can find. Maybe Beth has one?
PS I emailed you please read it.
Love you.
I have Homage, have started reading it, then got busy at church and tomorrow I gold coat at hospital in the a.m. Girls are coming in afternoon for cards and Jeff, Jane will be arriving Tuesday p.m. possibly midnight. I had to clean out some bedrooms, two dogs are coming also, so I cleaned out everything i thought kiki might get hurt as he will need his own space as he dosn't know about dogs. You will probably get ahead of me in Homage. LOL grandma barb
