I love the way you write and look forward to your posts in the future. I am California but was in St. Louis last May and went to the The London Tea Room. Have you ever been there? Just adored the furniture store next door, pricey but could have bought everything in it. Spent some time in St. Charles also, another great place!Marileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04453120607895839251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-19571197463601927302010-01-05T11:33:50.402-06:002010-01-05T11:33:50.402-06:00Hi Char,

A romper (in current terms) means a child's garment....so if that is what it meant back then, then Miss Cornelia either had a child or a little sibling she was shopping for.... :-)<br /><br />Thanks for writing,<br />ElizabethElizabeth Maxsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15301271156213625334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-57736482406745637832010-01-04T20:08:29.951-06:002010-01-04T20:08:29.951-06:00I am a new follower and I am enjoying your blog an...I am a new follower and I am enjoying your blog and your amazing talent!! I just bought a house and we are expanding it starting this summer so I am not able to really do anything to the house yet. I thought I had plans to, but now I should probably hold off as it may be all undone in the reno process. As for the list in your pretty hand bag... I thought it could be romper... Again, you are amazingly talented, I wish I was that talented!

Thank you! I am in total agreement with ...Hi Tami,<br /><br />Thank you! I am in total agreement with you! Many times my friends comment on how I NEVER know the names of actors, names of movies, or songs. I have always been this way since a kid. I always said (even as a kid) that why fill my brain up with stuff that I really don't need to know when I can barely remember stuff I need to remember? <br /><br />So I really put NO effort in remembering names of actors, movies or songs - which sometimes, drives Randy crazy when we are at Blockbuster and he sees me holding up a DVD to show him as a possible choice to rent and he says, "We just rented that last week..." And I will look at it curiously and say, "Did I like it?" And he will say very calmly as he continues to look around, "Yes, you did." <br /><br />Now most people would be worried, but I know in my heart that I just didn't take time to really LEARN the name of the movie that I just watched and at first it freaked him out, but now he knows me better and knows it is the truth that I remember the movie, just not the name of it and that is why I am looking at the cover of the DVD. Sometimes, I think people standing near us in the store secretly feels sorry for Randy....hahahahahaElizabeth Maxsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15301271156213625334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-79508037027347661302009-12-20T22:31:45.082-06:002009-12-20T22:31:45.082-06:00Elizabeth...first, I wish you the best on a belate...Elizabeth...first, I wish you the best on a belated birthday wish. Second, I'm wondering if that doesn't say 'rompers' on that list. Strange, but my eyes were drawn to that word even before I read what you had written...and third...I am EXACTLY like you in that I get distracted easily. I see it this way...we try to accomplish so much in so little time, that we sort of 'cram' and our brains can handle just so much information or 'lists' at a time that we must let something drop off that list. Hence, forgetting what exactly what we went into a room for in the first place, only to replace the task with another. My friend Pam says that she likes to sneeze, only because it feels like it reboots her brain. :-) Have a wonderful Christmas Elizabeth.

Rats. Hate it that it will be closed. I love hearing about your FUN weekend, Christmas trees and custard, what a combination, but TD's is worth freezing your caboose over.<br />Now I have to admit that Randy looked better in that wig than you did. He's a combination of Sonny Bono and Elizabeth Taylor! <br />Now, I need to know all the great places to antique in STL. Because the only places we know to go are on Manchester. Can't think of the name. Something "Isle" or aisle?<br />I think I have the same ADD when it comes to comments!<br />So, Happy Belated B'Day, glad you had a better way to spend it this year.
