Naughty

Being VERY disobedient to my timer today. Flylady would be so disappointed. "Flylady dropout...no purple puddles day for you...." The timer is the only piece of Flylady advice I've used more than once. 

Mel: Rebel! Rebel!
Me: Rebels against Flylady Frank
Mel: Won't do what she suggests Sigmond
Me: Tells off Flylady Fiona
Mel: Figures she's a dip Dan

While avoiding my timer's prompting like the plague, I've been genealogy-ing and listening to Oingo Boingo: "There's a place in the stars for when you get old."

And while genealogy-ing, I found my grandma's college yearbook picture online. Sweet find.

1938 Walla Walla College Yearbook

Karen R: I still see Candace in her, I also see Becky's smile
Mel: They all look like adults, even in high school!
Me: This is college.
 Mel: Oh. Well still, that generation mastered looking older than they were.
Me: You know, for these Keen girls to be in college during the 30s... Grandma and Grandpa Keen must have worked really hard. I'm looking at their 1940 census record and neither one of them made it past the 8th grade.
Mel: Wow! That's a pretty crazy step up.
Me: Inspiring, isn't it. Kind of feminist of them, too.
Mel: Absolutely! Equality is where it's at!
Me: But for this to be happening during the Depression... pretty amazing. I want to hug them.
Mel: Great drive and hope.
Me: Yep. I feel like I have no excuses for anything now.
Mel: Except your bad smell.
Me: Bad Smell Frank
Me: I smell awesome right now, I'll have you know
Mel: Me too, just did a run by showering on myself.
Me: With the hose?
Brian D: What does the quote say?
Me: "Heart on her lips, and soul within her eyes, Soft as her clime, and sunny as her eyes." I think. Mel: When isn't it with a hose?
Me: When it's with your tongue
Nancy L: I never knew about her college days!!!
Gary D: Dot's secret life....lol
Nancy L: I guess so!!!!
Mom: Oh yes...remember she went to Seattle for a singing competition with a group from the college and got sent home for being caught drunk? She was supposed to write the college and apology but wouldn't so they kicked her out....??
Mom: Uncle Mel told me all about it.
Mom: She was engaged and he broke it off because of it.
Mom: Three weeks later she met and married Dad [Carl Dysart Jr.]
Mel: Sounds like crazy youth runs in the family. Now I know who to blame for my bad behavior! *wink wink*
Me: She was a sassy gal.
Me: I wonder who her fiance was.
Mel: Someone who didn't appreciate a rebel, apparently. Thank goodness! We wouldn't be here without Grandpa.
