Hi Everyone!

They are the happiest couple I have ever meet.

I have never met a person so optimistic than Nins.

Look at that sanguine rose. It’s a deep blood red color.
Symbol of passionate affection.

Red hibiscus symbol of love and passion. I believe it falls into the sanguine color category.

Have a great day! Hope

Snoot

Posted on by Hope

Hi everyone!

Do you know anyone that comes up to you and says and talks, talks, talks? Then all of a sudden they stop! It’s time to getaway!
Then you here “Did you know?”
Me, you would think I had learned my lesson from the last time Mrs. Guilderfess was at the art museum fundraiser. She sure is a “snoot“.

Hope: Hey Nins! Look whose walking her dog this morning.
Nins: I don’t believe it.
Hope: Nins, who are you calling?
Nins: Abby of course, she won’t want to miss this. She has such class or at least she thinks so with that outfit.

Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! I have to take a picture! He’s so snobby with me and my family. We have been neighbors for twenty (20) years and he has never smiled, say hi.
But that doesn’t stop me saying hi. Or how are you Mr. Guilderfess? Missed you at the museum fundraiser last week. I always have a smile and a pot of tea ready just in case he takes my offer for some “Earl Grey” tea.
He’s not as snooty as his wife.

Have a great day! Hope

Hi Everyone!

Okay, gang here we go down the crooked road to aunt Mabel’s home.

There was a crooked man, and he walked a crooked mile,
He found a crooked sixpence, against a crooked stile,
He bought a crooked cat which caught a crooked mouse,
And they all lived together in a little crooked house.
Poem by Mother Goose
Poetry Foundation.org

Can’t get any more crooked than that!
