Dar, a...Jodie, you SHOULD! Be your best friend! <br /><br />Dar, and a happy Friday to you, too, sweetie! <br /><br />Douglas, very funny. :-D Actually, I hide money around the house, too. Once I hid – I kid you not – a thousand dollars. Had taken me more than two years to collect, ever so slowly. Then I lost it. The last thing about its hiding spot that I could recall was telling a friend over the phone “There! No one will every find it there!” <br />I tore that house up. I cried. I went to a hypnotist. (I don’t hypnotize.) I finally found it two years later.<br />And I spent it.<br /><br />CG, glad to inspire!<br /><br />Powdergirl, you funny girl you. No, not the law. Actually it’s quite sad. Deaths and unhappiness, really, the year I turned 7. It most definitely changed my life.<br /><br />Ellen, I hear ya, sister! I’m a money hider myself!<br /><br />F8hasit, I’m all about the ridiculous!<br /><br />Kavi, oh, I’m something all right! <br /><br />Ladytruth, why thank you! And I just love that color on you! :-D<br /><br />Rene, we may have been separated at birth as I do that, too. :-D “Good job, Pearl! No one moves a chair and vacuums under it like you do!”<br />Big virtual beer to ya.<br /><br />Pat, I’m very glad you thought so. When I started writing this little bit, I was surprised by the turn it took. Would you believe it actually made me a little wistful?<br /><br />American in Norway, I think you should. :-D<br /><br />Green-Eyed Momster, oh, no. I’m not clever. I’m losing these things, remember!!! And you? Well, hey – you look great today! Those pants fit perfectly, and those shoes are to die for!<br /><br />Ann, a little love note from the little me to the older me. :-D I would pick me up and squeeze me if I could!<br /><br />The Jules, I fight me all the time, and I always win. Of course, I’m never quite sure if that was the right thing…<br /><br />Helen, thank you. This one kind of surprised me…<br /><br />Lynn, Kiki is quite a character. I wrote a post about him earlier that I really should’ve linked, the time he and T jumped off the cliffs at the St. Croix River – model piece of youth/bravado/stupidity there! <br />Of course, I did it too…<br />As for the moving, no fun there: family deaths when I was 7, Dad drinking, Mom crying, move move move. Took a good 7 or 8 years before we were normal again, to be truthful.Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05261369905176088917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-67618099485822293312009-08-27T15:21:21.243-07:002009-08-27T15:21:21.243-07:00You must have been an interesting kid!

A lot better than hiding Christmas presents for people and then forgetting about them until two or three years later when I run across them in a manic housecleaning, re-arranging mode, find whatever it was that was hidden and it is totally inappropriate to give to said recipient or they've gotten the movie or CD on their own...<br /><br />Like this post.

I figure that's pretty well hidden.<br /><br />Very interesting insight...<br /><br />Reminded me of my mother, though. When we moved my parents into assisted living, we had to clean up the house they had lived in for 35 or so years. My mother had left cash around in books, in pockets of her smocks and robes, under (and in) old magazines, in tins and cookie jars, and various other little hiding places.Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752593286034877538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1060614279393262320.post-79846978361216101692009-08-27T07:58:24.227-07:002009-08-27T07:58:24.227-07:00That is one of the funniest things I have ever hea...That is one of the funniest things I have ever heard of in a hem of a dress.
