Good morning all, how is everything where you are? Got to say it is quite warm here, and not much rain. Although it looks like we are going to get rain a lot in the afternoon, we haven't had much. But it must be raining every night because the grass is really growing and so are the weeds in my garden. Hopefully I will feel up to getting out there this week!

  

 

Todd arrived home safely from his trip to NYC. He had a great time, but wouldn't want to live there.

 

Helen left here on Tuesday, spent a few days at Judy's daughter Jess home and then off to Maine for Helen 50th nursing class reunion. She is really looking forward to it, as well as her trip back to Maine.

  

 

 

Want to wish a very Happy Birthday to nephew Kyle Marshall today, it seems like it was only yesterday he was in his 20's, he is climbing on up there :). Talking about climbing on up there, on Sunday sister Judy will also celebrate. NO comment on that one. She is a wonderful person and I wish her the best of birthdays.! The first is niece Lisa Morar's birthday, best of birthdays to you dear Lisa. Busy weekend for birthday's and while I am at it Happy 4th of July!

  

 

 

Lana & Shari arrived home last Tuesday, and hit the ground running. Had to get grocery's for Dad, get his med's and so forth. Dad was so pleased that they are home. On Thursday it was back to work for Lana, so she is in her old routine.

 

 

Grandson Todd returned from NYC and had a wonderful time. But he decided that he wouldn't want to live there.

  

 

 

The government new four day work week has effected a lot of people that I know. How about you? Even though Stacey's Paul is in the National Guard, they are now on a four day work week. Friends I know at that the contractor's at KSC are also on that. One day's pay lost can sure hurt you in the pocket book!

  

 

It is wonderful news about dear Ann Swan! The tumor was found to be benign! The Dr. said that less than 15%! Isn't that wonderful news! Thanks so much for your prayers for this wonderful person!

 

I am sorry to mention this again but the Zimmerman trail seems like it is on 24 hrs. a day. Most likely we will have it on for another two weeks. I want him to have a fair trail, but I don't need to see it! I am not on the jury. But, Bill is living in front of the TV so like it or not I hear it!

We are all excited Krista will be home next week, for the week. I know she will be happy to be home for awhile.

 

Yesterday, was Baxley Manor day, Got to say it wasn't a good day. Our donations are down, and the people have now been moved into a smaller room. And they are charging $3. for the meal. Don't know if there is anything we can do about that. Lori and Jan do a great job shopping and making the money go a long way.

 

Had some great pictures of Eloise, but for some reason it wouldn't let me copy them.

 

Wish I would hear more from you so I could share your news, not too much going on here, and I have to really stretch to fill a page.

 

I guess that is it for this week, remember no one loves you like you do!

 

Lots of Love,

a, aa, ~g~
