JUST A STORY

Ysterday in the Wal-Mart parking lot, I saw this cute bright yellow VW bug. I always have thought them cute. I made up a story in my mind that it belonged to a flirty young cutie with long flowing blonde hair riding aroung as fast as one would go,honking to friends and boys she did not know. As I was prepaing to drive away --here it comes flashing by and driving was an old man (80's} maybe older. He was wearing one of those driving caps like the English wear and a smile as big as all outdoors. And away he went-----!! I had to smile and thought things are not always what they seem. I said "Good for him". Again I must find something to do. That is why I joined the Creative Writers group. It meets next month. And be happy with my Honda Civic.

REAL WORLD

Back to reality and it does feel good in some ways. I feel so at home here ar St. Catherines. People that I have seen in the halls since I got back said I was missed. That is a good feeling. But I had such a good time at the Beach because I could watch my family up close and feel good about that. Of course I missed my "T" but I found him in the clouds each day and I like to think he was looking down on us and smiling because he got his wish in starting Beach Week 27 years ago and it has achieved it's purpose of bringing us close as a family yet starting your own family. Now that is as it should be.!! Of course comes with it all this dirty laundry which I could hardley wait to get done.9HOW COULD ONE PERSON USE SO MANY CLOTHES?} Crazy but it is all done and put away. Now let's start a new week and be glad we missed the bad weather they are having on the Gulf and eat those peaches I brought back and share some of them and think of the beautiful week we had. Thank you Lord!!!!

HOME AGAIN

What a beautiful week. The weather was perfect, the food was outstanding. (I wished for one of Ashley's biscits this morning} Bryan's drinks and great stories of how they came about was outstanding, the Famous cooks were at their best. Sophie and Paul really put on a "feed" Cary and David are so good together too. Mary Grace is amazing with her Fry Daddy. She really can fry up oysters and anything else near. Of course the "older" girls are such pros and good at clean up. They enjoyed letting the next generation do lots more. Of course two new babies added flavor and fun. Linda is so good at getting things done too She brought gifts for everyone and I always learn something new from her. Tommy's birthday was celebrated.. OLD Girl {ME} just sat and watched. I guess she knows when to hold them and when to fold them. Smart comes with age. No kidding I don"t know of any other family who could bring this together so sood and sweet. Making memories is my motto.Everyone has their own. Thank you all for loving me and being so kind and sweet to me. I know sometime I can be a drag. But I had a wonderful time.

Sweetly Be

RAIN GONE (I hope)

Are you all getting ready? I am working on it. I have my balcony friend, Rosie, ready to water this outrageous flower garden I have created. I will have to bring her some Chilton County peaches. Clara is out of town so I asked my next door neighbor. Joe to feed Pimento. I will put him in the hall and Beth and Lois will enjoy my fish too. Beth says he waves to her.. I left him out there for Clara to feed him when we went camping and it works
out good. I guess I will have to bring a basket pf peaches to thank everyone for being so kind to me. Of course I would do the same for them. That is what friends are for.

RAIN RAIN GO AWAY

I hope the rain goes away before the weekend. If we have much rain on our Beach --it will be lots of puzzles, lego, making cookies,talking and much more. I guess we can handel that as long as we can go to our own space and be alone a little. Usually down there it is at night when it rains or short showers in the day time. Pensacola has had much rain in the last few days. We will hope for the best and usually it is nothing to worry about. I am packing and making list, even then I forget something.
