Meeting for Lunch

Hello Ladies,

Hope this finds you well!

A speedy recovery to Anne Granahan who broke her leg and is recouperating.

Yesterday, I met 4 of our classmates for lunch at The Cooperage in Baiting Hollow.

Clare Cooney and Dolores Mueller came out from Centerport and E. Npt., and Tish Maher came from Manorville.  We were so happy to have Barbara Petry join us, she recently moved to Riverhead and was not able to make the reunion, so we had to catch up on 50 years!

We had a lovely lunch and talked for 3 hours! We barely had time to eat, but we squeezed it in between words!  :)



 We ran out of talking time, so we are planning to meet again in early December.

We would love to have YOU join us!  Please let me know if you are interested, you have my email and phone number.  It will be somewhere in Suffolk County, place to be determined.

Everyone there talked about how great it was to renew friendships at the reunion, so let's keep it going.

Get in touch!

I'd love to have you visit!
Happy November!

A week later...

Hello Ladies,

Hope everyone who had to travel got back home safely.

Sandy Foley, Pat Foskett  and Jane Beckert stayed here in Southampton, and we had a great time Sat. night talking about everyone.  Were your ears ringing?  :)

Sunday, Pat departed early to catch  the ferries to CT, then drive  back to Rhode Island, and the rest of us went to Brunch in town and did a little sightseeing along the Estate Section where the mansions are, and a stop at the Ocean.  Then Sandy and Jane went out to Montauk to stay with Sandy's brother for a visit.  Everyone is home and safe.

Dolores Carson and Lorraine Dethlefsen sent pictures, and it is not too late to add yours.  Just email them to me.

If you haven't signed up on the right side , please do so.  That way, whenever there is a new post it will be sent right to your email address.

Some of us plan to meet for lunch by the end of the month.  Everyone is welcome, so if you are interested, let me know!

Happy October!  Apple Pie time!



 If any of you are interested in cooking, baking, recipes and tablesettings, I do a blog.
Come visit when you are bored! I know it is not of interest to some, but maybe one or two of you would enjoy it.

All the best,

Wasn't It Lovely? How could it be 50 years?

I hope everyone had a good time yesterday, I enjoyed it thoroughly!

It was wonderful to see you after 50 years, and I hope we won't wait another 50 to do it again!  :)

Thanks so much to Candy for making the pennants and modeling her uniform, to Marilyn Abramoske for the Memorial board, and Dolores Mueller for the name tags.  Ginny Cook helped Dolores put them together.

The pictures aren't great, but here they are.  If you have any you would like added, please email them to me, and I will get them on if I can.  I know I can't copy a pdf file, so they have to be sent a different way.
I'll add more captions later.

Good health to you all, and God bless!

Do you remember this?

I go to QRA oh pity me, there's not a boy in that damn nunnery.
They let you in and then they lock the door.
I don't know why I ever went there for.
And when vacation time comes rolling round.
I'm going to turn that damn school upside down.
I'm going to drink, smoke, neck and what the heck.
The hell with QRAaaaaaa!

Have a wonderful weekend! I can't believe it is Labor Day, but I am so happy I am retired and won't be headed back to the classroom!

  I'll be at the beach with my 5 grandchildren, hope you will be doing something fun too!  I know many of you have way more than 5, but I only have one son, so I am very blessed!

One of our classmates is a great grandmom already!!!  How could that be?



This blog  will have all the pictures of the reunion, so please come back afterwards and look.

I am hoping the name signs will be large so you will be able to read the names in the pics!
