The best diamonds are colored blue-white. and Hollywood brags about the yellow ones....ha ha ha!
The Old Chinese Telephone Exchange in San Francisco was completed in 1909. Operators were required to be proficient in English and five Chinese dialects. They were also obliged to learn every phone number of every one of the company's 2,400 clients because the Chinese believed it was rude to refer to a person as a number. wow, talk about pressure on the job...
Thank you all for the birthday holla!
It was a great day...nice/simple!
I had to get up early this am, for my foot Dr's appt...nothing broken, or fractured...but the top tendon is swollen & torn....soooooo I'm wearing the boot...rats!...I was favoring the foot a bit, thus the reason for the back & hip pain...I told Doogie Howser...(he was only 30, but looked 10)...I thought I was just being a baby...I even wore my high heel clogs yesterday... (big mistake)..when eldest & I were shopping, I was hobbling around...I almost got in a go cart...lol...now I know why I was struggling...so for now I have to wear this boot...I wanted it in Pink, but nope only comes in black! oooh....maybe I can find some accessories!!!! .lol....
get some of that fabric paint and spruce that boot up! I'm glad you went in to get checked, sorry it wasn't the news you wanted to hear though :(
