SOME E-MAILS ARE JUST SO DARN CUTE!
 |
| Shirley & Marcy A mother was concerned about her kindergarten son walking to school. He didn't want his mother to walk with him. She wanted to give him the feeling that he had some independence but yet know that he was safe. So she had an idea of how to handle it. She asked a neighbor if she would please follow him to school in the mornings, staying at a distance, so he wouldn't notice her. The neighbor said that since she was up early with her toddler anyway, it would be a good way for them to get some exercise as well, so she agreed. The next school day, the neighbor and her little girl set out following behind Timmy as he walked to school with another neighbor girl he knew. She did this for the whole week. As the two walked and chatted, kicking stones and twigs, Timmy 's little friend noticed the same lady was following them as she seemed to do every day all week. Finally she said to Timmy , 'Have you noticed that lady following us to school all week? Do you know her?' Timmy nonchalantly replied, 'Yeah, I know who she is.' The little girl said, 'Well, who is she?' 'That's just Shirley Goodnest ,' Timmy replied, 'and her daughter Marcy.' 'Shirley Goodnest? Who is she and why is she following us?' 'Well,' Timmy explained, 'every night my Mum makes me say the 23rd Psalm with my prayers, 'cuz she worries about me so much. And in the Psalm, it says, 'Shirley Goodnest and Marcy shall follow me all the days of my life', so I guess I'll just have to get used to it!' The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you, and be gracious unto you; the Lord lift His countenance upon you, and give you peace. And may Shirley Goodnest and Marcy be with you today and always. |

FRONT YARD WRECK...
 |
| Was sitting in my living room this morning reading around 9:30 when I heard this noise that sounded like a freight train coming in my living room. I ran out to the porch thinking "the fence will be on the porch" and this is what I saw! |
 |
| My neighbor ran the stop sign and was t-boned! The stop sign and street sign are under the van. Thank God, no one was hurt, not even my fence ! |
 |
| As you can see the van was touching my fence....I'm very happy I still have my fence but I'm soooo sorry for those poor people... My husband and I was sitting on the porch yesterday counting the cars that rolled that stop sign (even a cop car) and said one of these days someone is going to get it...Looks like today was the day :( |

CONTACT PAPER...
 |
| Someone decorated our back room, which was once the back porch, with contact paper! I have been spending the past few days peeling it off with the help of my grandson, Joshua. When we get the paper off I am going to paint it a very soft yellow with bright white trim and turn it into my art studio and get back into my painting...and I hope I won't be painting walls! |

YARD WORK...
 |
| My Grandson, Josh, has been coming over each day this week to help us catch up with yard work. Today this is all the yard work I am going to do!!!!! I think I am a little tired of it right now and as my family can tell you, it's not my favorite thing to do! I wish it was, so that way I would have a nice yard all the time but it's not, so my husband has the chore and so does Josh :) |
