I'm Irish and BS Certified!

I know what you thought, and you are partly correct, but BS stands for Blarney Stone in this case!  I'm not sure if I developed the gift of gab prior to kissing this blessed stone or if kissing the stone some how justifies my going on and on and on!  I'm also really good at recognizing BS!  I can look a person in the eye and tell right away if there are fairies dancing inside or not!  This is a very helpful tool to use in Real Estate, let me tell you.

Kissing the Blarney Stone

 

I did live in Londonderry Northern Ireland for a couple of years, during "the troubles".  Went to an all girls private protestant school, Londonderry High School.  Brown shoes outside, black shoes inside, uniform and the whole shibang.  I didn't think wearing a uniform was bad at all, never had to think up what to wear the next day!

Wanda,

I enjoyed your post.  I, too, wore uniforms through 12 years of school.  Yes, it was easy getting dressed in the morning.  In college it took me awhile to learn how to mix & match my clothes. 

Thanks for the reminder & the humor.

Enjoy the rain.

Hi Wanda - Nice post. Like you and Mary I too wore a uniform. 12 years of Catholic school followed by military school. College was definitely a culture shock.

Wanda,

My grandmother had a picture very similar years ago.  She traveled quite a bit and enjoyed Ireland.  I have been wanting to go over but, have not found the time yet.  Besides I have to go to Italy first.

Mary and Suesan-Uniforms are great, I think I should wear them in Real Estate as well!  Sometimes I just feel black and tan.

Larry--I was just talking about Ireland and Italy and was told that Greece is also a definite must.  Apparantly, the rural area of Greece reminded my cousins of rural Montana!

Nice post! As for uniforms in school, I am ALL for it! Makes a lot of sense. As for my realtor uniform, I am usually all black and BLACK. (A girl's best friend!)
