Well--things have been very confusing for the Philbert Phlock of late. Actually, the phlock has been separated and there was fear that they might never be reunited. But apparently there are rumors the phlock may be reunited, and even a new Philbert added to the phlock!
See, it all started with a major mix-up with our cousin, Stanley the Stork. Stanley delivered a four month old baby to Diane, and this sent Rick over the edge. The baby in question is actually Diane's grandson. Rick and Diane didn't really explain all this to me, so I'm a little confused on the details. It seems that Rick and Diane didn't exactly spend a great deal of time explaining themselves to one another, except through texts and emails.
But lo and behold, while both of them were in Florida over Thanksgiving, they actually met face to face and had a REAL conversation. And, they took the Philbert to find some waymarks in Christmas, Florida. First waymarking they've done since the last weekend in September. Both of them live in Indiana, and you would think they could have talked there, but no! They had to get together in Florida. And you think I am the bird brain!
The new Philbert says it seems they had a good time and that pictures will follow very shortly. Rick has to get back to Indiana and upload the pics. The rumor mill says they are still talking to one another, although the great stork mix-up is still something of an issue.
On a personal note--I am very thankful this holiday season that turkeys are the bird of choice, not phlamingos. Condolences to all my distant cousins....
