The old Southern people would say, "My ears was a burnin' this afternoon and I think it's
'cause someone was a talkin' 'bout me."
I have met lots of people on this Activerain blog that I'd never have known otherwise. One of my favorites is Elizabeth Weintraub from Sacramento CA. My daughter was reading comments on one of the blogs and saw Elizabeth's signature and said, "I know her! She's married to my friend who used to work at the newspaper in Little Rock Arkansas when I did!"
So this afternoon my daughter visited with Elizabeth and Adam and the cat in their home in Sacramento while she was on a trip to California for Thanksgiving holidays. Elizabeth and my daughter have cats in common!
They may have discussed me a little but I'd be arrogant to think that it would have been anything but a fleeting, "Oh, yes, your mother is a blogger in Arkansas that I have met." But I still feel honored to have been mentioned at all. They even did a picture for me.
That's my offspring with eyes only showing! And as a proud mother and friend, I can testify to a lot of talent, skill and intelligence in this photo.
