Oooooooh, I see! Figured that maybe!

Yesterday when we were discussing Hawaii, I didn’t get a chance to tell this little story!

My husband and I had some long time friends who lived in Hawaii for 8 years. When their parents began getting older they came back home but have been back to Hawaii twice! That was the guy who had been friends with my hubby since they were ten years old. And he cried so hard when my husband, (his best friend) passed away. We stay in touch by email and phone and occasionally get together. They take me out to eat now and then.

The story these friends told us, was that the people who lived in Hawaii were so laid back that one of their favorite sayings was “Ain’t no big thing.” In other words when problems arose they would face them and say “Ain’t no big thing.” We would be better off if we could face our simple problems that way, wouldn’t we? So if I don’t learn tables right away guess I will say “Ain’t no big thing.” ~~LOL~~

We sure had many good friends and I am thankful for that. Its like all the good friends I have met here....I feel thankful for so many friends.

Well, you already learned tables, and even the simplest ones
are pretty...so I guess it WAS a big thing that you conquered!

So there! :D

Absolutely, jaycee! It ain’t no big thing whether you post elaborate tables or not - you post some of the most adorable graphics we have on the thread, bar none. So there!

I was at my daughter’s house when I was first learning tables..They would knock on my door to see if I was alive..LOL It is addictive.
