Well guess what - my grandfather came from Ireland too - Coy Kildare, his wife came from Scotland, my other great grandparents came from England and Wales. The Welsh are known here for being pigheaded and stubborn - and short I am 5'2". The Irish are known for being cute, funny and feisty.

The trip was great, except on the Friday night I stayed at my son's house and hit my head again - leaned over from my bed to open the curtains to see what kind of day it was, lay back down and wham on the head board. I have a nasty head ache but I am thinking it is from being tired - my memory hasn't become worse or anything so I think I have survived this one wow!!!!!

Wedding was in a beautiul place, in a native bush reserve by a lake - just amazing - was surrounded by people from your part of the world - well over your border -Canadians.

Sissy - I didn't go to my work Christmas party 2 weeks ago as I knew it would be noisey and I weighed it up -decided what was better for me - keeping up appearances or being nice to myself - and guess what - I didn't go and it was the first one I have missed in my life!!! And it didn't matter that I didn't go, I was told it was boring without me which was nice. There will be other parties to go to later.

Lori - the mean spirited person at work - you're right just ignore him - he is obvioulsy a waste of space and has his own problems!
