One of the times he didn't know me right off and when he finally figured out who I was, he looked me up and down and noticed I had gained weight. He told me, "you've been eating corn dogs and fat back?"-Bridgethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15689950239216753388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185523471223729444.post-5714704680913664172008-08-06T12:50:00.000-04:002008-08-06T12:50:00.000-04:00Y'all are too sweet...Y'all are too sweet...Belle (from Life of a...)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17948665147630448055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185523471223729444.post-38776863210985693662008-08-06T12:07:00.000-04:002008-08-06T12:07:00.000-04:00I understand your story.

At times it drives us all crazy but her the most. She gets very frustrated because she knows she might have asked me a question 5-10 minutes ago but also worries that she might not and so she asks again. Most times I answer as if she hasn't repeated a qestion for her peace of mind. I feel so very blessed to have my mother around as I can tell from your post you feel the same about yours.<BR/><BR/>Have a great day!Kallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16591721931876076915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9185523471223729444.post-35143243750649925682008-08-06T09:00:00.000-04:002008-08-06T09:00:00.000-04:00Love your blog!
