I had breakfast out this morning.  The house was cold as I had furnace problems.  Doug came over bless his heart and fixed everything up for me.  Can someone answer this question....Why is it things always happen when John is on the road, and cannot DO anything.  Thankfully Doug could.

The winds that were forecast didn't come our way.  Just a damp cold day. 

Tonight if I have some energy I want to build a dress.  We'll see.

Have a good night everyone!

It's very damp in the Midlands today and there have been some flood warnings on the coast.  A friend emailed me asking for prayer because she lives in a beach-house on the South coast.  She sounded very worried.

I went to work early in the morning, but have the rest of the day free now.  I might go to bed for a short snooze later on    I am still plodding on with my Italian study.  I hope to do about an hour today.  I need to do some housework, but my hands have gone on strike.

Larry, I'm glad you got the itunes sorted out.  You have encouraged me to have another go with my mp3 player.  It can help in my language study actually, and I know how to rig things up so that I can play it through my car sound system.

JudyB where would you women be without us men and how in the world do you build a dress

Anyway, I hope everyone has a wonderful day.  God bless,

Anthony.

Hi everyone.  Just a brief note today as not much has changed since yesterday.  It is another beautiful day.  I have an activity this morning and then have the rest of the day free. 

The man in charge of the Senior Golden Games just stopped by to pick up the applications I had processed and left me a few more.  I will probably work them up today.

We are still enjoying the Olympics.  It is nice to see that Canada is doing so well with the games being held there.  It looks like it is going to be a race to see who ends up with the most medals.

Judy, glad you were able to get your heat back on.

Anthony, don't give up on your mp3 player.  They are very handy and the more you use it the easier it should become. 

I don't know a thing about mp3 players, iPods, or any of that stuff.  Give me a laptop! 

Well, I had three nurses and was stuck 3 times yesterday for them to take enough blood for a blood sugar test.  They finally said it wasn't enough but it will have to do!  And I had drank 32 ounces of water before going for the test!  I don't know what else to do.  And before I left I have another blood work scheduled for May 1st for my yearly exam!!  They need lots of blood for that! 

Well, it snowed again last night.  I haven't heard how much snow for the season in Indiana lately.  Way over, I know.  And cold.  So much for Global Warming in central Indiana. 

My mind says to clean house today but my heart says to go to Kitty's and play with computers!  Hmmm!   

I just got two loaves of Zucchini Bread out of the oven.  The house smells soooo good! 

I am hoping this website works for everyone.  It is a story that Lauren, Ivalou's granddaughter that has/had breast cancer, wrote to submit to the Breast Cancer Wellness magazine.  She also got an email from Vanderbilt for her to model and talk at the Art department there.  I see great things coming from Lauren.  Thank you for all the prayers and for continuing prayers for Lauren.

Etta Sue, I just read Lauren's story ... and saw her photo ... I agree with you "Great things are still to come from her" ... What an amazing attitude she has and I believe she will be able to touch many lives, and even help to change them for the better. 

I'm still having an ongoing "discussion" with S & F's website   I have not been able to get it to work for me since Tuesday!  Oh, well, all I can do is continue to wait. 

Today, once again, the sun is shining brightly and the sky is sparkling blue ... Sure looks like a beautiful day is upon us!  I have been doing a lot of sleeping lately, though.  Don't know what that's all about.  Maybe I'm trying to hibernate 'til the winter is over, y'think?   

Janet, I am looking forward to seeing the results of your painting class ... I know you have accomplished some great results.  My daughter Joy does (or used to) portraits and they look like photos, she's that good. She got all the talent in our family, that's for sure.

This has been a tiring and challenging day.  I feel too weary to recount it.  But I came in and read all the posts!

Sorry you have had a rough day Janet.  Get some rest tonight and I pray you will feel better in the morning.

John is home.  I bought a new mouse as the one I have quits working all the time.  Also Wal-Mart has their winter clothing that is left over on sale.  I bought 3 sweaters for myself for $3.00 each and 1 each for the girls for the same price.

Pat was at a wedding today.  I wonder if she is back?

I am off to bed, hopefully I will rest well and be less tired tomorrow. 

Thanks, Jane, for reading Lauren's story.  I thought when I saw her after her diagnosis that speaking to others about her journey through breast cancer would be her calling.  Anything to keep her out of the bars.  I really dislike it when I read that on Facebook.  It's no excuse but she is 22 years old.

As for S&F, I didn't get any email notifications from yesterday to today so I am assuming it is down.  In fact, none from CP except to come to this forum. 

I went to Kitty's yesterday afternoon and we 'played' computers.  I put my folder about the Memory Book on her desktop so she can start printing if she wants.  I called the Anderson Library yesterday and they are sending 6 obituaries to the Lapel branch to be picked up tomorrow.  We will have all 9 obituaries in the Memory Book.  Never thought I would be excited about obituaries but I was when Beth told me she had all of them!! 

I am all ready for church...so I had better be heading out soon!  I have too many things to do before church starts!

Etta Sue I have read Lauren's story and passed it on to family  and a few very close friends.  She is an inspiration for us.  We need to not take ourselves too seriously.  I am continuing to pray for her.

Rough night last night.

Today is the final hockey game, and closing ceremonies for the Olympics. All of the competitors have done well and have been cheered on by the Canadians in the stands.  This country has rebounded in our spirit, and it seems everyone has a cheer going out to all the men and women as they competed. 

Doug may be coming over again today, I do enjoy his visits.

Bye for now
Judy

Hi everyone.  On Sunday I am able to sleep in a little later so didn't get a very fast start this morning.  We can go to church 15 minutes later than our normal time as the choir, while in the choir loft, are not singing this morning.  The minister changed the focus of his sermon at the last minute and our director haven't selected appropriate music.  Fortunately, it is always a joy hearing her do a solo and that is what will happen today.

I spent several hours yesterday putting about 50+ new Games applications into the database and preparing the certificates of participation.  This morning I am printing them out.  It just takes a little time.

Etta Sue, did I guess correctly that you played computer rather than cleaning the house?  

Judy, that sounds like a great bargain.  I seldom see bargain like that.

Janet, certainly hope you were able to sleep last night and feel a lot better today.

Jane, I wonder what is causing the problem with S&F website.  I haven't experienced any problem and it is working well this morning.

Hope this is a wonderful day for you all.  God provides us a fresh clean day each morning and if it starts out not so good, just restart it for the rest of the day.

Good morning ... the sun is shining brightly again and the sky is clear and blue!  I am having a struggle to get warm, though.  Maybe it has something to do with the fact that, once again, my iron count was low when I attempted to donate blood on Thursday.    

As to the "problem" with S&F .... I found out that there is a broken link with something and, since I am on dial-up, it doesn't load before I get kicked off ... Jeanne Lee told me that. I just have to be patient until that link is fixed or until it is removed or by-passed.  I wonder how many others who are on dial-up have the same problem.  

Etta Sue, I don't read any of Lauren's FB stuff but, if there is a comment about going to bars .... well, I can't blame her, or find fault with that, given what she has been through and what she is facing.  My opinion here, but I'm sure it will all "settle down" before long .... indeed, she is only 22 years old.

Jane is right it is sure a beautiful day here today. I went out walking with the dogs this morning and I am thinking about talking another walk with them shortly. Except that I am here rooting for the USA Hockey team.It is 2-1 Canada right now.

Jane, Rae has disconnected the offending link on S&F.  Hope that's the solution for you. 

Into Overtime!!!

Wasn't that a great game Judy?  We won the most GOLD ever by any country during the winter olympics!!  It's the GOLD that means the most, but silver is good too........

I had a good day today!  Thanks for the kind words.  All of our Crawford grandkids and the g-grand were at their parents' today, so we went down and had lunch with them, taking along an ice cream cake (a favorite of their whole family) and had some good time with them.  Later, Diane went to stay with Grandma Wayland, who is now 104 years young, and I went over to visit her, too.  She was doing really well, walking great with her walker, able to see the photos I had along, and even read the words in the album.  She wanted to see our new car, and was just so much better than when I saw her last.

Curtis came up to cut a board he needs for a shelf and check on some stuff he has stored here, so he programmed my new cell phone into the link thing on the car.  When the salesman tried to do that, my phone would just shut down.  Well, the phone was ruined, we had to buy a new one.  Also, when Verizon took over Alltel, ours was one of the accounts that didn't transfer properly.  So that took about 2 1/2 hours on Saturday to straighten out, and the girl who was helping us tried to program my phone into the car, and couldn't.  God bless grandsons!!  

I attended a 100th birthday party for one of the residents of the care home on Saturday.  We now have three octogenarians there!  

Etta Sue, I tried to get to Lauren's story, but it wanted a password which I either don't know or can't remember.     It is so good of her to want to help others who have or will have the same problem.

I have to have a complete physical in the morning, so will be fasting after 8 or so.  They say midnight, but I never eat that late--I am usually asleep by then!  Then the surgery will be Thursday.  The hospital still hasn't called to tell me what time to be there.

I think I will go look at photos for a while!

Liz, that's good!  I wanted Canada to win a bunch of medals; they were great hosts!

That is, indeed, the solution, Jeanne.  Thank you  ... and my thanks to Rae, as well. 

Janet I sent you an email with Lauren's story in...I tried the link and it works.   

Congratulation to Canada's Hockey men's and women's hockey teams.

Liz it was indeed an exciting game and the Canadian Team did exceptionally well!

Anthony...To build a dress I simply build up from a piece of material into a garment...in other words sew a dress!!!

We are just watching the last bit of the movie Ben Hurr.. I didn't know it was so good.  Then off to bed.

Time to lock the door on this week and open a new place HERE
