Another smile



My beloved tennis partner, M, loves to make me smile. So she and her son made this picture for me. I think he did a great job. Except I look taller and thinner there -- and here, not so much.
But, it makes me smile --actually it made me laugh out loud when I first saw it. The only possible way to improve this is to have me looking at him ...... just looking.
Sigh.
Several people have told me that they totally understand this "fixation" of mine. It's because George resembles Jim -- especially in the eyes. I never noticed how much he made me smile until the "after" and now it makes perfect sense. It's really Jim, still making me smile.
Or that's what I choose to think, anyway.
I hope that my 3 fun friends have a blast at Rascal Flatts tomorrow night and attempt to get me out again with them!  
I'm needed to hang around with my sister and girls and relax as much as possible.  Thursday we are back out to the rodeo to see Toby Keith.  Then Dawn has to leave on Friday.  :( 
And now she's moving to Chicago -- a lovely, windy city that is a great place to live (I know this from personal experience).  It's still sounds nothing like HOUSTON, nor looks like HOUSTON, or has anyone who ......say..........ummmmmmmmm...............LIKES & LOVES THEM like they do in HOUSTON!!
Oh, and I hope all of you Italy people have a molto bene trip and I look forward to seeing your pictures.
And if you see George --- please try to set up a meeting for me.  Please!
Again, not to stalk or to worry --- just to stare, kindly.
Sigh.

I hope D doesn't look and sound as lost as M does when he is in Chicago. Oh, and D...it's not a "french-room" its a "frontroom" (pronounced frunchroom). Ask M about the time he stated that something was in the "frenchroom" and all of us Chicagoans stopped talking (for once) and just stared at him blankly. I'll keep thinking of more words for ya (yous guys!)
My family in Chicago loves you. ;)
Hope you are having a great time.
Love you both/all

XOXO

You made it very hard to eat cereal this morning! Your blog opens and the milk started going every where. Too funny!!!! As the Italy people or in the air, I'll make sure they know we're on a George watch!
Speaking of Clooneys, a song just popped into my head, sung by Rosemary in "White Christmas" with a line 'just count your blessings instead of sheep..' Perspective

I had to share this - if you want a smile go to the Cute Overload website. It has the cutest photos and videos - today's is of a tiny fuzzy baby koala & I'm pretty sure that is at the Australia Zoo Wildlife hospital... :) I recognize it! Sorry I don't think there's any George here ;) But i love the picture of you two!

I was reading your blog today and one of my daughters asked..."Is that Mr. Janine?" I thought that might make you laugh. Enjoy your time with your family home.
