Went to see the skaters, window displays, then to see the manger at St Patricks. Sometimes threw in the Radio City show as well. Vanilla cupcakes from Magnolia Bakery. I don't think I can picture myself in that sea of people anymore. My next to last job was in the West Village.I used to go to the Magnolia Bakery on Bleecker street to buy Red Velvet cake.

I finally learned to ice skate, in Florida, at the age of 34! I hope you are feeling better,Mimi. I never learned how to ice skate.I did roller skate a lot when I was a kid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My doctor’s staff is trying to slot me in for a Pacemaker as soon as possible, but I think it will be after Christmas. Meanwhile, it has me exhausted and my breathing is badly affected, too. I sure am looking forward to next year!!! But I’m alive and plan to stay that way!! 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always found him, graceful, sharp wit and extremely honest. He would always take the time to talk to reporters. He did not look at us as the enemy bit rather a messenger to get his message out. I will miss him even though I did not agree with him. He is a true patriot and hero. God bless Senator Bob Dole. I watched it , too. I watch a lot , a lot of news . I thought of you twice while it was on . Once , when Robin delivered her eulogy and mentioned losing her dog , Cooper. Her dad brought her a new dog that gave kisses . She would hold up her dog and he would lavish kisses on her dad and Elizabeth. I imagine you received dog kisses , too. The other time was at the WWII memorial when a cameraman got caught on camera. That could have been you. She named me her dog JoJo in honor of her dad whose middle name was Joseph. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time I was in Times Square for New Year’s Eve all I saw was the seat of men’s pants and the back of woolen coats. One of my uncles kept trying to pick me up, but we were packed so tight all that did was jam my nose farther into the people in front of us. I have never wanted to repeat that experience! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
