My brother's birthday is next Saturday, the 22nd.He's my baby brother and he'll be 49. :^O
I remember when we were kids, I used to be TWICE his age.
Now it's only 21 months difference between us. haha!
Thanks, as you can seen not only do I have trouble with words but I also have eyesight problems.
How much do you know about penguins? Take the quiz! I'm taking a wild guess, but I bet you score 100%!
Thank you so much for this beautiful poem and graphic!
That is a cute graphic and poem.
Thank you for reposting it.
Are you going to dinner on Wednesday night?
Will we see you Wednesday or are you busy that day? We are going to the inaugural ceremony Thursday morning. Then probably back to Alexandria until time to get ready for the ball.
Nine out of ten. I took a guess about which was the most endangered species, and guessed wrong.
I ***LOVE*** penguins - almost as much as I love pink flamingoes! :-)
Thank you both for brightening my day.

Everyone scores!
Thanks for the link, Jen.
Are you ready for next week?
OK, how did you guess wrong? When I did that, I got a pop-up that said it was the wrong answer. So, I guessed again until I got it right. :)
Nope. Haven't even started packing, but I know what I'm wearing to the Ball and that's the biggest decision.
DH and I are going to the Wednesday night dinner. Are you????

I'm packed .... (I hope). I bought and returned a ton of stuff. I finally decided what I'm wearing. I did not buy a heavy winter coat. I bought a jacket and warm long johns. If it gets too cold, I'll find someplace warm and stay there. :)
Are you guys staying in Alexandria? Spookie and her kids are staying at the same Comfort Inn that MamaBear and I are staying. I don't know where Colleen is staying.
LOL
Bad but cute! Thanks.
We are staying at the Comfort Inn that is down the block from the Washington Plaza Hotel. I don't know what part of town it is. But, it's near the monuments and museums - which we are planning to visit while we're there.
We didn't get tickets to the inauguration. Waaaaaaaaah! Too many others asked first. But, we're going to stand with the DC FReepers in their reserved counter-protest section for the parade and follow the crowd afterwards. I hope there will be some jumbotrons set up so we can see the inaugural ceremony.
