Hello my Zany, Wonderful Friends!
Thank you Sassy, for guiding me to this fun, nostalgic thread. It was wonderful talking to you today! ...and Nita -- thank God you have such a great sense of humor! Ah, and my Dale -- hello my sweet friend. I miss everyone so much. All of the members of SM are impressive, and I miss being among such beautiful, creative souls.
I must confess that when this photo popped up on my screen, it had to be send it to you (Nita) ...and you know why.
Others may not know that before I saw an actual photo of Anita (who is in reality, really quite pretty), she showed me her online photos -- one of which was of a rather rough looking woman. (...Attilla The Hun comes to mind ;-).
I am laughing now, just thinking of it!
At the time, I assumed (wrongly), that the image was of Nita. It was quite challenging to find something positive to say, given the the shock and horror of believing that our kind and talented Nita in no way resembled her lovely demeanor. Needless to say, some people (I am not mentioning any names, Sassy, Nita and Dale) find the predicament that I was in, to be humorous.
So being the "diplomatic" person who I try to be, I was a bit speechless
...the joke was on me.
...and I love you all for it!
God bless all of you for not forgetting me. Life is full, but with school beginning, I will try to be here more often. Until then, keep up the exceptional work!
Love & Hugs,
Mindy
