He said my card was the first he received. He is so sweet, but he did mention that he was reading your blog book and finding out things about you he didn't want to know....lol...sounds like my parents! Hope he is doing well..I know you will let us know. hugs, LindaLinda @ A La Cartehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16356471099319932835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1593180163168779558.post-38184760523794895422011-02-19T07:50:38.220-08:002011-02-19T07:50:38.220-08:00In the early 70's before I was married I share...In the early 70's before I was married I shared a flat with a teacher friend of mine and my share was $50.00 a month. My car payment was $104.00 a month and I thought that was high! Gasoline was 39 cents a gallon for my little Opal GT. Remember those? Isn't it amazing how we remember stuff that far back?Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11211553639708036919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1593180163168779558.post-33830286785833740232011-02-18T23:10:44.719-08:002011-02-18T23:10:44.719-08:00GOOD GOD WOMAN WHATS GOING ON!!

Now, how do I remember that, when I can't remember where I last left my keys?<br /><br />Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today. I have been poking around yours, and I think I'm going to enjoy it here.

My favorite place to go downtown was City of Paris during the holidays. Weren't the trees magnificent? I didn't see any money set aside for food. Did you live on Top Ramen like I did in the 70's? I remember that buying a pound of burger was a huge splurge.<br />I have a card card for your Pop ready to mail.

I sketch here and there but wish I did more. I do a lot of graphic design by trade but miss my own doodles. I drew the cupid on my blog last week, and I'll be debuting a couple more characters. God Bless blogs, they really let us explore our creative sides :-)Amber Von Feltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12893607211762877902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1593180163168779558.post-88354975673996107372011-02-18T12:42:47.987-08:002011-02-18T12:42:47.987-08:00These are wonderful!
