I still really like Tree of Life.<br /><br />You should start a "name dropping" meme. It would be fun to see who had run into whom. Since I lived in both L.A. and London, I have a few, but my favorite story isn't mine.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06452682935744860737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709631.post-30390913698982162032010-09-13T15:14:51.219-04:002010-09-13T15:14:51.219-04:00What an interesting way to discover I have a long ...What an interesting way to discover I have a long lost sister in Caroline, because it sounds like MY mother as well!<br /><br />I'll have to mention this to my therapist...<br /><br />Lovely stitching!<br /><br />~KatKathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17919917041802880858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709631.post-87959623782215327022010-09-13T13:54:30.535-04:002010-09-13T13:54:30.535-04:00Grew up with a parent like that.

I got the impression she was going to start moaning about her job, a teacher. I jumped in and told her a true story about my mother's friend who moans continually about being a teacher, and if she hates it so much she should retire. I have never seen her again. And this was about a year ago.

My husband and I fell in love with the NFL RedZone channel, which our cable company just added this week. It was better than watching a whole game we were only partially interested in, since our team doesn't play until Monday nite.
