I adored Diana too.....

I remember getting up early to watch the wedding. William was born on my birthday. I had the frilly blouses, the pale hose. I've had all her haircuts.

I remember the day she died... I stayed up all night and of course got up early to watch the funeral.

I mark July 1 and August 31...

I loved her!

We have friends who have, shall we say a flair for the melodramatic. Former liberals who became country club Republicans (wannabes at least) because of abortion and the fact that they like money (once they started earning some). They'd visit us in Arlington and she'd want to go place a rose on Bobby Kennedy's grave. They were horrified that we were married on November 22.

Anyway, they were at our house the weekend Diana was killed. My wife casually mentioned it at breakfast and the woman literally went into mourning right before our very eyes.

Wife felt kinda bad, but not too bad since they came when I was painting the kitchen and the house was in shambles (we actually said "this isn't a good time" they said "we'll still come"). Wife also didn't feel too bad because this woman once said "with your complexion you shouldn't wear red." Wife was wearing a red sweater at the time...

I miss that sweater...;-)
