Dearest girl,

We have had around 10 inches of snow, today......and I feel fine! (I was bought up not far from the Peak District National Park, so I'm right at home in this).

Thank you for being so kind....you make me smile and sometimes laugh out loud! Sometimes you make me shiver.

You are better than smiley - choc, better than smiley - redwine, better than...well...just better!

Gentle, shy hugs for yousmiley - hug

Oh, and derbylad4 will get me, on yahoosmiley - run

*We* got another ???? inches as well. I was at my trainer's ranch & was nearly snowed in. When I was leaving I tried to tell him his steps were all ice.
smiley - biggrinNothing makes the heart go aflutter than to see a martial arts black belt take a flying leap off the porch only to act as though he'd meant to~!smiley - laugh

Why don't you pull this horrid person's teeth with a jolly festive pair of Christmas pliers? That way they will NEVER come back.........

I am SO so sorry that your holiday will be degraded by this person; you deserve a great deal better, I am sure. I have already started making Christmas Spice Scones (to my grandmother's recipe) and I'm distributing them around various offices at the hospital (a kind of bribe, really!)smiley - biggrin

Dearest girl......snow? But of course! Anything for the cutest of B.A.T.ssmiley - smooch

You can get a cheaper one (which uses 300lb blocks of ice - which your personal trainer can lift for you, of course!)

Gentle hugs, sweet Pansmiley - hug

Derby, you're spoiling me!
I do love that in a person. smiley - winkeye

This poor smiley - yukfriend has no friends in all the World. Isn't that the saddest thing? I mean other than *I* will be putting her up for day after day.<?> We met in swim class when we were five years old & I haven't been able to get, er
loose touch no matter where I move. What radar!! She should get w*rk for the Government or sumthin'.

So, you're MAKING food?? smiley - drool
Wish that I were domestic. smiley - bigeyes
I mean, I'm house broken!!! smiley - blush I just don't know the difference between the coffee maker & the toast buring thingie.
To me ... I do well to pick up my feet as someone comes by with a vaccume cleanersmiley - ok

My mother (bless her) became blind in her 40s; both she and Pop were disabled. Bro was away in the Army, so I learnt to do.....everything! She was a Master Pastry Cook, and I now bake three times a week (artisan breads, vanilla cake, scones - that was Monday night). When I know you better, I will send you a PHOTOGRAPH - of some of my breads!~smiley - laugh

I also cook 90% of all meals - "from scratch", using mostly organic ingredients. Last night was a hearty vegetable stew with lentils (the temperature was around 16 degrees, outside) and some chunks of garlic bread I had baked ('studded' on the top with diced tomato, and brushed with olive oil) smiley - biggrin

I also do all the food shopping, clean, take out trash, wash dishes (after all meals)....and am FULLY house-broken!smiley - magic

As to your friend.....I would suggest that you find a dumb....sorry, WILLING male, to 'take her off your hands'. That way, she would completely enchanted, and have a whale of a time decorating their little nest each Christmas. She will probably invite you to be with THEM each year, but you can regretfully decline due to 'pressing personal problems' such as the urgent need for you to become elected as the first woman President of the USA!smiley - ok

Now, I must dash and do more work.......until later, sweetest of B.A.T.s!smiley - smooch

smiley - crossYou dare jest about mio` becoming the 1st "Lady Prez"????
smiley - divaI'll have you know that I was being groomed for just that spot from age 15 - 21. Every two years the men in black would come from D.C. to quiz me etc.. (did sorta' shake me up when the FDI showed up - smiley - bigeyes I felt like confessing things I hadn't even thought of, least of all the things I'd done smiley - winkeye)

I was very prolific in local govn. & even ran a charity org. that I thought up over a tall drink of scotch at a local club.
smiley - tongueoutNow when people ask me to join this or that I just say, "Already did my time."

Sad about your parents. But what a wonderful legacy! smiley - wow
You'd be surprised by how much we seemingly have in common~! You're just like me~! smiley - bigeyes Only different~! smiley - biggrin

I was always shooed out of the kitchen. Poor me. Couldn't even wash a dish properly. smiley - whistle Shame.
I had a two room flat & a twice weekly house keeper! smiley - laugh
smiley - ermI actually thought men would leave me alone. smiley - puffBut one after another ... trying to teach me to cook.
smiley - zenAfter you nearly burn down a fella's place they sorta' give up the cooking lessons.

I also detest shopping.
I mean, *I* wouldn't feel right about cotributing to a poor kid loosing a delivery job! smiley - yikessmiley - biggrin

As for MRS. F. ~ she's coming here to get away from her HUSBAND.
Besides I like most of my men friends WAY too much to shove her at um.

She's mentally unbalanced. No joke.
Naturally all my friends ARE~ but this one's just gone. ...one toke over the line!

Dearest sweet girl.....

I KNEW that there was a reason why I was waiting to become a citizen - it was so I could vote for YOUuuuuuuuuuu!!!smiley - loveblush

So....we are very much alike, then? Apart from the odd (significant) difference?smiley - blush I await, with anticipation, the revelations to come...smiley - winkeye

One of these fine days, in a not-so public forum, I will tell you the tale of my coming to America. Unlike Eddie Murphy, it was not a happy arrival - and went downhill from there.smiley - sadface

Never the less, I continue to work, bake, clean and cook.......a man has his dignity, after all.

The night is a lovely chill one.......it should be down to about -2 degrees by around 2am. I shall be doing my famous (infamous?) 'hibernating bear' impression, under about three quilts and a coverlet!smiley - zzz

Later, sweet, gentle girl smiley - rose

Dearest lambkin! (a Mediaeval expression of affection of which I am very fond)

I do so hope that you are well? I have missed you - something fierce. I know that you are likely to be extremely busy - Mrs F, et cetera - but I have not forgotten you.............

The town in which I live is the second richest in the USA (on average); it is home to TWO colleges (one a member of the 'Seven Sisters'), so the shops are a sight to behold. NO price tags in many of the boutiques - if you have to ask the price, you can't afford it. Needless to say, I am NOT it the tax bracket of many of the residents, but I enjoy strolling downtown and window shoping.

The Christmas lights are up on the trees, and the municipal 'Holly Trolley' is running around (there will be a horse-drawn hayride on Saturday); I think you would enjoy the sights.

I point of all this? There are several very fine jewellers (OK, 'jewelers', if you must)...which you would ENJOY!!smiley - blush

Have a lovely Christmas, dear girl.........smiley - smooch
