Dad was able to wrap ladies around his little finger in an instant-- I think he focused on them in a way that most women adored. <br /><br />My Gran was the same way. After burying three husbands, she still loved her male friends and flirted (just ever so subtly) to the end at 92.<br />With genes like that, I guess I'm a lost cause, but luckily my confident hubby knows he's the King of My Heart.<br /><br />Please stop by again sometime!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01468655681800817415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3422383139355516259.post-75548159707416904192011-12-02T06:55:32.724-08:002011-12-02T06:55:32.724-08:00Lost my dad in June.

And the ladies did love him!

Gosh, can you imagine being married to someone who didn't have a wicked humor streak? <br />Mom had actually left the room during the telemetry lady's visit, but if Mom had been there, she would have said "Oh, Charles!" and rolled her eyes. <br />She laughed when we told her about it later, and also about the alleged "abuse."<br />Dad loved to shake things up, for sure. :-)<br />Thanks again. It helps to talk about him.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01468655681800817415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3422383139355516259.post-58990746295586930002011-11-30T16:04:42.439-08:002011-11-30T16:04:42.439-08:00When I read your posts about your dads wicked humo...When I read your posts about your dads wicked humor, it reminds me of my husband. He is the funniest person I know and I actually could envision him saying those exact same things to the nurse (with me not minding a bit, because I know where his heart is).
