Middleton Plantation, Charleston, SC
I was looking for a picture to go with this entry and came across this shot of myself at the Garden Festival at Middleton from a few years ago. It was a bad hair day.
I had a good laugh at these Euphemisms for Menstruation on Miss Celliana's blog. It's proper for me to re-post them because I was a nurse and I am supposed to talk happily about these bodily functions. There are some I've never heard of in this batch!

From a guys perspecive and having seen STAR TREK last night, #4 hits the spot (so to speak). Love your blog. Where is N.E. India did you live? My son-in-law received his BA from the University of Calcutta (MBA from Ohio State). Spent every summer for 20 plus years of my youth in Charleston. Spotty attendance for the last 40. What a wonderful place. Miss it.
ReplyDeleteI still need to see the Star Trek movie. May need to track down my son for that one.
ReplyDeleteI lived in the most beautiful part of India, in the Khasi hills in the far north east - Shillong, Meghalaya (home of the clouds). My brother lives there still and leads eco adventure tours. We always went through Calcutta before heading north. That was an adventure in it's own right!
You are correct. Charleston is a wonderful place. I haven't run out of things to take pictures of yet. Thanks for stopping by.
Looking over this posting, I would have avoided saying anything was "spotty."
ReplyDeleteFunny. I haven't heard of any of those either. I like to say the red ferrari's parked in the garage.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually speechless right now! Your post and all the names for a "Visiting Aunt" gave me the giggles, thanks for that!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I knew I hung out with the kind of people who would appreciate this. Y'all are great!
ReplyDeleteI've always said, "The redcoats are riding again."
ReplyDeleteUsually followed by the comment, "All over my abdomen."
Marcheline - That is so awful it should be on the top ten list!
