The New World Symphony in Miami built a spectacular new theater. They groomed a large lawn, that was once a city parking lot, with freshly planted green sod intermingled with walking paths and palm trees. Once a month they open the grounds to the public. While the symphony is playing inside, we can enjoy the concert on the great lawn. People come in droves bringing, chairs, blankets and food and wine.
The new site cost maybe a billion.
I met my two girl friends, Susan and Gail, on the lawn choosing our spot, plopping ourselves down chatting and eating. As the music was about to begin we noticed a German Sheppard and his owner lying next to us. There was nothing strange about this until we began to relax. AND So did the dog!
When the dog turned over and spread his legs relaxing on the grass, he exposed a pair of the most humongous balls that one could ever imagine. If that was not enough the dog breathed heavily and each time he took a breath his balls shook. We three ladies were fixated on his every breath watching his balls bounce and shake. The concert held little interest to us and the sound of its music was overcome by our nervous giggling. We were enthralled. We got a break when this very special well endowed dog turned over covering himself and giving us the opportunity of watching the concert. But he was a restless dog so before we knew it, he rolled back again on its side breathing heavily and exposing more of his bouncing shaking balls.
As a grand finish the air suddenly changed; Yup, he passed heavy deadly wind! In a whirlwind second, the owner picked up his gifted dog and disappeared into the crowd forever.
The moral of the story: Artists who have studied all of their lives to play instruments, conductors who studied all over the world, architects who dreamed up the new hall and landscape design spending billions of dollars to bring it all together, did not stand the chance of getting the attention of these three ladies.
What a ball!

Once a Mom always a Mom
My daughter 50 years old plus, who lives in Switzerland, went for a routine colonoscopy. I have had two myself and know it is an easy procedure. However, at the end of the day I called my daughter to see how it went. SHE DID NOT ANSWER THE PHONE. I figured she was still asleep. With the time change, I knew when I woke up there would be an e mail from her. BUT THERE WASN'T!
I called her apartment again this next morning. NO ANSWER.. Panic was slowly setting in! Something happened for sure! Her husband doesn't want to call that something went wrong! I called her cell phone. NO ANSWER.. OMG, any minute my son will be at my front door breaking the bad news...I could do nothing but wait.
About half hour later as I was painfully looking for my son-in-laws cell phone number, my phone rang.
"Hi Mom, did you just call?" "Oh yes, I did, I said as casually with as much composure as possible; ' was just wondering how things went." "Oh fine mom, I am now at the top of the mountain skiing; it is gorgeous up here, and we are having so much fun and my colon is perfect." Sorry I didn't call.
As I revived myself I rushed her off of the phone and lied down on my bed to recover.
WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE ANY COMMENT..

Please go out get a face lift if your time has come!
If you are of the age and of the means to have a face lift pleeeeze do not wait a moment longer, go out and get one!
Not only will a face lift make you look and feel like you again, it will rejuvenate you in ways you never dreamed.
For me, there was never a question. At 40, eyes, at 50 face lift at 55 laser, at 65 a face lift again. Why? Not because I am an ego maniac but because I believe in looking as good as I possibly can and nature never went along with my way of thinking.
Why am I talking about this now?
Well I have a childhood friend who at 74 never had any cosmetic work. How did you look next to her contemporaries? I will tell you how; old and hanging.
She talked about getting her face done for many years but fear would set in. I do not quite know what her particular fears were but there were enough of them to keep her from checking herself in!
Well, at 74 she finally decided to heck with it; I'm doing it!
I saw her last night at her 75th birthday party and I was astounded. She looked beautiful She looked refreshed, she looked kinder, she walked faster, she moved faster, she dressed better. She is a reborn sagger. How wonderful.
Of course because she never had any work done before, it had a greater effect. I always believed in little by little.
A face lift is a wonderful thing physically and mentally with only one precaution. DO YOUR HOMEWORK; GET A REALLY GOOD DOCTOR WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY ARE DOING. This is not the time to clip coupons. This is your face and soon to be your uplifting happy face.

when you are lying in bed sick; you think nothing is going on
Actually that is not true.
I returned from Ca. with the worst flu cold so have spent the week in bed. There was no other place for me to go this week.
I was bored, sleepy, achy and all the rest.
Guess what? Today I am beginning to feel better; my head is clearing, my energy is getting higher by the minute, I am writing lists on what comes next, I hired a maid to clean and air out my joint, tomorrow I will go on errands, next day beauty parlor.
YES, YES, silly as it might sound I am coming to life and.... Life is awaiting me again waiting for me to participate.
I must admit something about my trip to California. I visited my adorable grand kids and family. But you see there I was Grandma and that is all there is to it!
Here I am a hot sexy woman with untold energy.
How is your week going?
Love,
CArol Sue

How is your Valentines Day?
Well must admit mine is not what it used to be.
To begin with I am sick in bed with a cold.
I don't mind the relaxation but I do mind the lack of attention.
Let's start from here.
Who are my Valentines? My family, that's who!
My ex-husband usually sent me flowers but not this year. I sent him an e mail and he sent me back one that was nice. Let us say we will always be kind to one other.
My daughter sent me an e-card and I loved it; she has never done more than that in the past so a card was nice.
My middle son is beyond words... I emailed him TWO WEEKS AGO and asked him to be my valentine this year. He wrote back: "Absolutely" I will call you..... That was the last of him..... P. S. I had never asked him that question before, guess I won't ever again.
My younger son, a true romantic always sent flowers on V. Day but when I received them as a Mother's day gift as well, I said, "I would love a gift you picked out, no matter how small." Perhaps he confused V day with M Day thinking I don't like flowers period; so none for me.
He did call and send a great e card.
I sent 3 of my grand kids V day cards, one to each..... no response.
My very on occasion lover sent (not a word)
My daughter in law sent kisses,
My girlfriend sent kisses
Oh well, my cold is getting better. Like they say... nothing more important than health.
Love to all you Valentines

Bus travel teaches us more than being alone in our cars.
Early this morning I went to New Jersey from New York City by bus.
While I was waiting at the Port of Authority for my late bus, I noticed an attractive woman talking on her cell. Her back was towards me but I admired how she was dressed in leather and fur. She was neatly put together on this early morning.
I on the other hand taking the same bus was dressed like a slob. Oh my clothes were clean, but my boots from the snow and wear and tear were shabby. My "Head" ski jacket from about 25 years old is still colorful but far from sexy; my warm hat and ear muffs messed up my hair but I did not much think about it, I was warm, until I saw her.
How could she look so attractive on this same morning taking the same bus? I studied what I was doing wrong. When she turned around she smiled and walked towards me. She was a pretty lady too. Funny enough, we did not stop talking from the moment we met making both our trips entertaining; I told her I liked how she was dressed and she thought lightly of it. We exchanged e mails hoping to be friends. Oh, and I think I will buy a new ski jacket and boots!
I went about my business in New Jersey and another lovely lady drove me back to the NYC bound bus instead of having to take a cab.
Oddly enough on that bus I met another lady. We struck up a conversation about weather and went on to other topics. I found it unusual to have two long conversations with two strangers in a three hour time limit. She and I will meet too.
Actually, I will try hard to bring the three of us together. Wouldn't that be nice?
