Army Thread Wednesday 21st December
See you tomorrow then. I'm off myself in a bit but first I have to tell youz something that happened here today that I'm still gobsmacked by.
I cleaned out my office today (otherwise known as the spare room). Let me say here that I am not a horder, but I do not throw things out easily if I think they could still be useful. Anyway, I came across a purse that I'd been using on and off over the past few days simply because it holds a bit more than some of my other ones, but is lighter in weight. However the zipper is broken and has been for about a year now. Suddenly, peed off at myself for hanging on to this purse with a broken zipper and remembering another purse that I bought but will never use, plus a couple of pieces of clothing, I decided to go down and hang them on the re-cycle bin down the street from us. We live on a fairly busy street and whenever I've left something like that out, it's usually gone within half and hour, tops. So I trotted myself down to the bin and hung the broken-zipper purse on the bin handle and then in front of that, the other little purse. About 45 minutes later, as I was sauteing some ground beef for a stew, I suddenly thought - did I check out that purse really well - pockets and such? Trotted back down to the bins and low and behold, the little purse was gone as were the articles of clothing but the broken-zipper purse was still there. Right there, on the spot, I checked out the one and only zippered pocket that it had and what did I find? My passport, alien's permit, bank book and a paper with my social insurance number printed on it. Crikey, what a shock. I managed to make it back to our apartment building but climbing the stairs was a major achievement due to shaking so much. Dawg, what I would have had to go through to replace those documents. They are now securely hidden and will never be put in my every-day purse again.
Troopers, am off to walk the dogger and then to bed.
Wishing you all

Thank you so much
I am now feeling the lurve.:h
I am going to have some ME time tonight. But any help with Mother of the Bride speech very welcome.:thanks:
Also my very first boyfreind has just tracked me down. We were 16 do the maths.Oh, that must have been a surprise. I looked up the guy that I had my first real crush on back when I was in my early teens. I was looking at his piccie on FB and wondering who that old guy was. Then I realized that if he saw my picture he'd probably wonder the same about me. :H Actually, he's still good looking. Has been married and divorced 3 times and has 6 kids.
Great idea Zennie-butt. I bet there are. There are sites for everything. Mrs. A, you would probably get some good ideas there.

Never been the mother of the bride so I'm not much use there. Maybe there are websites with speech ideas though...
