Small world
Okay, small town small world, so no real surprise, but I just found it funny. I was invited to a pool party today as part of the crew that runs the swap, and the house it was at was near or at a place I recall my mother taking me to as a kid. It was someone she knew. So I asked the hostess if she knew my mother, and she did. Her mother and my mother were friends. I remember her mother clearly, though I was only a little kid when I knew her. She made doll house furnature and lamps, using bits of jelwery and such. She was very gifted. She also had a sewing shop, which I didn't know, and that's how she and my mother met. My mother sewed, and she got work from this women when she had too much. They became friends. The funny thing is I can recall going to the house that I was at today, but I don't recall being there.. just that it was 'that house' and that's all. I would have thought I would recall the pool, as I loved to swim as a kid and I rarely got to go in a pool (we swam in the ocean back in the day) but I don't recall it.
The cats are telling me it's time to eat. Spooky is giving me the plaintive 'high five' and Muffin is sitting next to the computer looking sad. She'd be eating my hair if it were not wrapped in a towel from my shower.
The boy goes back to school on Sunday. Hes' trying to catch up on a few more shows before that. He just started watching Band of Brothers. I'm glad he has good taste in TV. lol. Well some, he still likes his Anime... Hes' also still drawing. I got him a sketchbook and some ink pens, and he's using the book but likes the pencils so far. Well, I'm just glad he's enjoying drawing... :)
