| Here we are, LETTER 14, what a JOY... |
| Letters from Shirley Letter 14 Here we go again� I�m in the mood; I�m in the mood to write. Let�s see page 13 was about October. We can make this page Christmas Party Weekend. I don�t think I went out in November. I think there was a money problem somewhere, like in my pocket. So I knew the Christmas party was coming up. I got into my red dress and it was sooo tight. I have not been able to wear this dress out yet. So with no money in November it was a good time to diet. I lost 6 pounds before the party and got into the dress. There were lots of tight things under the dress to HOLD me into it. I had been to an antique show and bought a very nice rhinestone necklace and earrings. They are so pretty. So off to Portland I go. Saturday afternoon I check into the Motel. This is the same Motel that the party is at. Good planning don�t you think? I went to the store and got a sandwich and snacks to hold me over until dinner. Drinks were at 7:30 or so and I was on time and sooooo beautiful. I got many comments about my dress and jewels. It was a nice dinner and some of the girls sang after dinner. Not me, Shirley is not allowed to singing, NO NO. Well dinner is over and I think, � I�m in PORTLAND and Hobo�s is here�. So off I go into the night. Got a ride over the river and I�m there. The good-looking bartender is working tonight. Three or four other girls come in and we talk and then I think I should go dance at CC�s. I didn�t see anybody at first and then everybody was there. I danced and pranced. I got my picture taken. I had a ball� Did you know that I love to dance? I want to learn to SALSA with a man, but the doorman at the Latin place on the corner does not think it would be a good idea for me to go in there. BOO HOO I think it got pretty late�. I think I decided to go back to the motel, but I stopped for one more at Hobo�s. Bill was there and wanted to buy me a drink, so I let him. Bill wanted other things too, BUT he didn�t get it. I�m not the type of girl you know. Sunday morning I didn�t get up until 10:30. I didn�t feel too good, know what I mean???? Oh well, by Tuesday I was fine. As we get older it takes more time to get well. I just love being myself, Shirley that is. Are you trying to be yourself????? Some times it feels so right. You just know in your �knower� that you are on the right track. This weekend the train was running just fine��.. Love Shirley J |
