Good morning all, hope that you have had a great week! To say that mine has been uneventful would certainly be lying!

 

 

Took Dad to Olive Garden for a nice dinner. He has narrowed it down now to two places...Olive Garden & Shell's :) As we were drving into his drive way, Bill called to tell me I had better come home! Nothing was calm after that. You see on Thursday I found out that he had dropped our house insurance over a year ago! As you can see by the following he didn't save the money he thought he would!

  

 

 

We had been having trouble without front flush, but no problem Bill was going to fix it. While I was gone he put two bottles of Drain O and two bottles of muriatic acid and blew up the toilets! It flooded all the rooms on the south side of the house...3 bed rooms, the hall way and the dinning room! Such fun! What a mess, Bill had to run the air and we had 18 fans going in the house, but the did save the carpets, but the wood floors had to go. Needles to say this has not been the best week in my life! Plus the fact we had to have the septic pumped out and the plumber had to come two times. We had roots in our pipes, that is what caused the problem in the first place!

  

 

Got a picture of Evangeline she just completed her first week in Day Care! Of course her Dad is not proud of her :)

On the 31, Dad will be 96! Send him a card if you can, forget about the e-mail, he won't open anything unless it comes from the sisters! We hope to celebrate tonight at Shell's. Wanted to get him a lobster but they are only 1 1/4 lbs @ $25.00. That will only be a snack for him, when it comes to lobster plus he would have to wait while I cleaned it :)

 

Yesterday we did Baxley Manor....Thank goodness the ladies do a good job saving money while they shop, this month we only took in $45., that doesn't go very far but we have to have faith that we can carry on with this and continue to help those people.

 

Thank God for Diana, she has helped me so much, there is so much to do here, and Todd has been a great help!  Well I could go on and on & on about what a mess my house is (and most likely will in future letters)  but I think that is about it for this week.  Remember no one loves you like you do, take good care of yourself.

 

Lots of Love,
