Welcome

Who knew I was the kind of person that would spend fifteen minutes picking a font for this blog? Ah well, self insight is always a good thing, isn't it?

Welcome to Furey world. The Fureys are an ancient Irish clan. I've heard them described as everything from a band of poor, scrabbling gypsies (think Johhny Depp in Chocolat) to quasi-royal Normans. Who knows? I just am thrilled to be part of the clan.

My life is quickly explained by my Sunday morning today. I am suffering from gueule de bois (a mysterious disease caused by one martini too many) so I decided to walk my dogs. As I left the house I noticed the blue sky was edged with a dark gray cloud, but it seemed very far away. By the time I turned around winds were howling about 10 mph and I was being pelted with horizontal rain. The dogs were looking at me like I was insane, and I noticed a neighbor standing at her living room window trying to decide whether to call 911.

If you take that example and extrapolate it to every possible situation, you'll know me better than I know myself. Although, I do know that I am the type of person who spends 15 minutes picking a font for her blog.

  3. Hi Peggy - Nice legs! sweet cat, great blog set up, very entertaining... really love your confidence. Something tells me though, that it doesn't quite hit the spot when I say it :-) How DO you get all set up like this anyway? I need lessons. I'll see if Paul can help me with it. Best wishes - Anne
