Mim Moments

Here are a few Mim moments that occurred over the last fortnight:

I walked into Mim's darkened bedroom at 9.30 one night, she was sitting in 'her office' in front of her computer typing messages to her friends (Owen and Charlotte), and asked me to email them for her (she doesn't have internet connection). I deleted them. Meegan/Carla - can you please translate fghjhgfhkjkhfghjkjhgfhgjhjkjhfhjhkjkjh for your children. Thanks


Mim walking around the house with Caitlin's old mobile pressed to her ear, "Charlotte, I TOLD you I'd call you when I finished getting dressed! Stop annoying me!" (Poor Charlotte!)


Mim was helping me serve dessert. She took out spoons and forks for the dessert participants and then helped take out the cheesecake, a bowl at a time. After the last bowl went out, she came racing back into the kitchen, saying "bugger, I forgot my spoon". Very Very hard not to laugh.


The following night she also helped serve dessert. Overheard her say, as she passed Margaret her dessert, "try not to make a mess!"


We all watched Mary Poppins on TV the other night but Mim was actually watching the Greek version, Mary Popolis.


Mim wandering around the yard with the dogs, singing "Hello Mr Heartbreak, I've been suspecting (expecting) you..." (a song by the Dickie Chicks, as she calls them).


Mim, singing Redneck Woman (Gretchen Wilson) in the back of the car "I'm a redneck woman, Hell, yeah!"


When Margaret told Mim to clean up her mess in the loungeroom, Mim replied "Who made you Boss of the World!" (when Michael came here to hear this, he told Mim "I made Mumma Boss!)

Ahhhh, I showed Owen Mim's message...
He said: OK. Tell Jememima (that's what he's been calling Mim for some reason) that I miss her too.

Cause I'm his personal assistant, didn't you know?!
