  1. Dolores ,darling you are most welcome in Cutting Sprout .I am sure you and Mrs Mooney have a lot in common ( men mostly) .We can put you up at the old Inn or the hotel owned by the Arbuthnot-nuts but a few un-resolved murders have taken place there and we don't want you on the menu.So envious of leathers ,do you have a matching flying helmet ? Mrs J. Nito.

  5. Hee. "Don't worry" and "I have your Amex" in the same sentence.

    Will we next be seeing Franklin file for bankruptcy?

  6. The brazen hussy! With one call the Amex problem can be fixed--an option Madame D might want to investigate, but that's another matter--but the leathers?! How dare she!

  10. I just want to know where she's going to escape this hades-like heat. Ima go there.

    I frequently close my eyes these days and picture the snow falling, light and lithe, creating a pastoral cityscape while I sit in the window and knit.

    Ah...heaven.

    I, for one, am very glad you are rid of her. I thought she'd never leave.

    OH NO! Does this mean Dolores won't be at Stitches? Damn! I was so looking forward to meeting her....

  14. Shucks! I was hoping to read Dolores' take on Knitting Camp. When she comes home (which will be shortly after you've cancelled the AMEX card) perhaps you can prevail upon her to write that portion of her memoirs?

    Obviously Delores doesn't know that she is my new best friend; she didn't invite me on her trip #!%^&*S H. I do hope she comes home with some really good tales to tell!

    This is either the set up for a new Dolores saga or a way of shifting the balance toward more of Franklin and less of Dolores. Either way it's good with me. Dolores stories are invariably hilarious and laughter is good. On the other hand, I'm actually more interested in Franklin and his doings.

  17. I think I've spotted at least one place Delores has been:

    robotgossip.blogspot.com/2006/07/future-jobs-for-humans.html

    There's a sheep on that page that looks VERRYYY familiar...

    What amazes me is that she's managed to travel backwards through time to do so.

  18. So Dolores ran off last night? She may need to visit the Yukon to escape this heat wave.

    If Dolores had stayed I would have told her tales of the wonderful air conditioners we have in the western suburbs!

    By the way, it was wonderful to meet you!

    I've been analyzing Dolores' handwriting. To my (untrained) eye, she is exhuberant, generous when she thinks she can get something for it, a little flaky and relentlessly optimistic. None of these traits bodes well for your Amex card, so you ought to cancel it PRONTO. Mary

  21. What i do not understood is if truth be told how you're no longer really much more smartly-liked than you might be now. You're so intelligent. You know therefore considerably in the case of this matter, produced me in my opinion consider it from numerous various angles. Its like men and women are not fascinated unless it is something to accomplish with Woman gaga! Your personal stuffs great. At all times take care of it up!
