Terry, thank Ginnu so much...although one might wonder why she is chopping the ice instead of her tall strapping spouse. But oh, I continue to perpetuate sexual stereotypes!
So what should I tell the Minister of Immigration Obstacles? That I am coming for pleasure? Although I have not been in the most pleasant of moods? Certainly, I am not coming for business, having once again regained my status of retiree. (I do love my youthful and successful husband!) (although his repeated use of that dreadful word J*B and his insistence that I need to get one is wearing thin. Perhaps I should leave him behind and have him wire me an allowance?) Then again, I fear I will get no allowance.
Have you found him gainful employment yet? Better that we keep a close eye on him.
Grover would like to work as a sled dog for the Canadian postal service. (Canada still receives its mail via dog sled, yes) Is that an option?
Gloria, New Zealand sounds nice, but I wouldn't be surrounded by friends who would be THRILLED to have us live with them, as Bruce and Terry are. Then again, I'd have a better tan. Hmmmmm...
You know, Gloria, every year, at Thanksgiving, I think of you....the woman who walked me through the process of cooking my first Thanksgiving turkey years ago...(was it about 6 or so years ago? Ohmygosh. It can't be that long. ) And yet, somehow, we are younger and more vibrant now than we were then ... And my turkeys always turn out perfectly. You are a master culinary tutor!
