loved them all, Pat and Jerry, though I do have a favorite today - Halloween party:)
Happy New Year!
An excellent, fun quartet.
What a fine quartet of tales. Jerry, I got a fine chuckle from your story. I loved all of them, Pat, particularly the titles, but the last one really rang a bell. I did forget my first anniversary, although my husband did not. A bit of role reversal, I guess. Wishing both of you the best in the coming year.
You guys are so imaginative! I too loved the one about the Halloween party. It must have been some party!!
Happy, healthy and prosperous new year!!
Good stuff, you two. You can always be counted on for a giggle or four.
Happy New Year!
