What Fiorella wants more than anything else is a friend--someone to talk to, to have fun with, to share in her joys and sorrows. SHE ALSO NEEDS SOMEONE WHO DRIVES, which is situation not even her pastor can handle, even though she'd pay. (Anybody want to step up?) Gosh, when your girl was a child, there were such things as carpools, but everyone lived in about the same area back then, and now Fio is too far south for most people.
Fio sang "Lavenders Blue, Lavenders Green" when she reached the tip of the cul-de-sac again today, but no one joined her. Maybe she should add more songs to her repertoire---like "Go Tell Aunt Rhody," which your girl mentioned previously. Come on, people--we all have favorites from our fourth-grader days days!
Hurrah! Am making good progress on Fiorella's painting of her beloved voice teacher. Hoping to finish off a couple of other canvases that have been hanging over her not only for some months, but for years. Would also like to get some good photos with her new Lily, but the darn thing has stopped working....
While we are waiting for Fio's new camera to fix itself, let's look at some things about the German language that are different from its offspring, English--but first Fiorella must tell you that just as English has developed into its own, ever-changing language, German has done the same thing. And, of course, they've both picked up interesting additions from every other language they come in contact with, no matter how bizarre.
Here are some combinations that you will recognize and can use:
Guten Morgan....Good Morning
Guten Tag............Hello
Guten Abend........Good Morning/Evening/Night
Auf Wiedersehen...Good By
