Child leaving

Jayson was about nine, he was furious about something.

He packed his school bag with a few things, left and said that he was not coming back. I watched my child leaving, going up the hill and coming straight back!

leaving angrily

 

 

I have heard of many kids doing that leaving angrily thing - somehow, mine never did that!  (Probably one of the few things they didn't try!)

angrily reproached

 

If I had tried to walk away in a angry fit on my father I wouldn't have been able to sit down for a month!!  I got to give him credit though, he never got mad at me. He would just explain what I did wrong, why it was wrong and that I should be punished. I got my punishment and he was back to being my loving father.

[TryinginFL]

reproached properly

 

 

Kudos to your dad, FH!  He sounds like a super guy!  Apparently you were always reproached properly - the correct way!

[Cse70]

Properly raised.

I was one of three children "properly raised" to be quiet, polite, never angry. Hmmmm, perhaps the reason for antidepressants 20 years later?

[gail]

Raised similarly

I was also one of the kids raised similarly, just like you Cse.

[fishinghat]

similarly reared

 

"I was one of three children "properly raised" to be quiet, polite, never angry. Hmmmm, perhaps the reason for antidepressants 20 years later? "

 

I was one of three also. All boys. My psychologist said that my never angry upbringing contributed to my later issues. 

[TryinginFL]

reared alone

 

 

I was brought up the same, but unfortunately, reared alone as I am an only child.  One of the reasons that I had 3!

 

A shame that today's society doesn't see fit to raise children in the same manner...

[gail]

Alone but

I am alone now, but won't be for long. It's cookie day with my buddy.
Two was enough for me Liz, plenty!

[TryinginFL]

But time..

 

But time to have fun now!  Enjoy your afternoon, Gail!

 

For those who don't know my sons are 364 days apart!

[gail]

Time to

Time to go now. How brave of you Liz, within one year, wow!
See you later!♥

[fishinghat]

to plan

 

I hope you planned for enough snacks for tomorrow nights game Liz!! I see where a couple of the Vegas odds makers are picking Chicago to finish 2nd in the league. That would be quite an improvement. The St. Louis experts are predicting Chicago t be atop the central in 2 or 3 years.

[TryinginFL]

plan to

 

 

Yep, I plan to enjoy the game, FH!  Since so many of our new players are excellent, but young, guess it will take a while to get somewhere!  I just hope they do something in my lifetime!

 

Have a ham (studded with garlic cloves) and potato salad already made - unfortunately, I will be watching alone, as usual...  

[gail]

To be

You won't be alone Liz, I am going to be with you. Bringing the wine also. White or red?

I am not a fan, so if you don't mind, I will keep myself occupied with the boys and Max.

[TryinginFL]

Be fun...

 

 

That will be fun, FH!  White wine, please!

I know that the boys and Max will enjoy having you here!   

[gail]

Fun with

Hum! They won't have fun with FH, he is stuck in Missouri!
I will bring one white and one red.

[TryinginFL]

with all

 

 

Wonderful, Gail!  We can have fun with all of us here...

 

Have you notified your pilot?

[gail]

All dressed

We might encounter a slight problem, perhaps not. The pilot just called, so excited to meet the woman of his dreams. You. He is getting all dressed up for the encounter.

Last pilot on leave of absence, his wife is due any day now. He is well manered, handsome, tall, a good match for you!

[TryinginFL]

dressed up

 

Oh my, Gail!  I will also get dressed up for the occasion!  I'm so excited I can't stand it!

 

It has been a long time since any man was excited to meet me - Wow!!!

 

Hope you all like ham and potato salad...can make a wonderful Watergate Salad as well (pineapple, cool whip, pistachio pudding mix and chopped pecans!)

 

P.S.  I love Greek men!!!!

[gail]

Up most

I guess you guys will be up most of the night. The boys, Max and myself will be in bed by 9pm.

This Watergate salad sounds like a desert, if it is, relax. He is Greek and is bringing baklavas. Making them tonite! Of course, your menu is fine, I have a problem with garlic, will remove the cloves. But, with all that wine, I may forget, remind me!

I hope we don't intrude, realizing here that we have invited ourselves for a sleep over.

[TryinginFL]

most fun

 

 

This will be the most fun I have had in about 2 years - can't wait! 

No problem with the sleepover - you may go to bed whenever you wish and this house is so well built that you cannot hear from one end to the other!

 

And baklava....I can hardly contain myself!!   Wheeeeee......

[gail]

Fun with

That is good to hear as I sleep lightly. Now, don't let your blood pressure get to high!

Gosh, he just called again, and like you, he can hardly contain himself! He does not think that he will sleep tonite thinking of all the fun he will have with you! When you see his dimples, you will fall instantly in love with him.

Fourth wedding?

[fishinghat]

with desire

 

Tfl met the man with desire in her heart.

[TryinginFL]

desire greatly

 

 

Oh, be still my heart!  Ah, what fun we all will have ...   You are coming too, right FH? 

Since this is to be a party, I think Cse should come as well!

Good food, wine...flirty friend...what more could I ask?

 

Don't know about that number 4, tho...

[fishinghat]

greatly anticipating

 

Greatly anticipating the party. Will Max be there? 

[TryinginFL]

Anticipating also...

 

 

I am anticipating also! 

Yes, of course Max will be here, but don't get any carnivorous ideas!  He is off limits!

[Cse70]

Also listening

I wanna come to the party! I promise to be good!

[TryinginFL]

listening well

 

 

I am listening well...  Yes, I want you to come too, Cse!

I have no doubt that you will be good - you can join in the good food, wine, and play with the boys and Max!

But I have dibs on the Greek!  

[Cse70]

Well shoot!

I dated a rich Greek 40 years ago and hoped to find another!
