Tuesday

Marion & Dale sent me this photo of their new granddaughter, Cheyenne. Her full name is Cheyenne Nadine Lynn Hipps. Quite a mouthful for such a little girl. I'm not sure if she has any of Chris' features or not, but she certainly looks wide eyed and awake in this photo.

The temperatures have climbed somewhat over the past few days and it isn't freezing anymore. Maybe that groundhog was right at least for Virginia.

I'm looking for a job now. I've submitted a couple of resumes so far, but no replies yet. I am hoping to get something before too long. This is a giant obstacle and hurdle that I must over come - what makes it such a large obstacle is that for 15 years I've been a household manager aka Mom.

Well, our outings for the day consisted of a visit to Patient First for a stomach ailment. Sean has his doctor's note for being out today which will be helpful for the rest of the week. We missed getting to the orthodontist this afternoon, but were able to get it rescheduled for tomorrow. He also had follow up appointment with the orthopedic, but we just cancelled that one.

The girls got a little creative this afternoon and I was able to get several photos of them, individually and together. This is the best one of the two of them together. They aren't trying to pick on, bite or otherwise beat up on each other in anyway in this picture.

This afternoon I got on the stick and put together this sketch for Jamie - the Easter drama director. This is to be used to cover the piano and organ area in the front of the church. I hope that this is what she is looking for. At least it is a start on something. Now all I need to do is measure the area on each side to determine if it needs to be expanded or shrunk any.

FLOWERS FOR A FRIEND
Happiness keeps You Sweet,
Trials keep You Strong,
Sorrows keep You Human,
Failures keep You Humble,
Success keeps You Glowing,
But Only God keeps You Going!
You are so special!

Some people in Georgia and the Carolinas have trouble with all those "shalls" and "shall nots" in the in the Ten commandments. . Folks just aren't used to talking in those terms. So, some folks got together and translated the "King James" into our own language,.... no joke, read on...

The Hillbilly's Ten Commandments:
  1. Just one God.
  2. Honor yer Ma &Pa.
  3. No tellin' tales or gossipin'.
  4. Git yourself to Sunday meetin'.
  5. Put nothin' before God.
  6. No foolin' around with another fellow's gal.
  7. No killin.'
  8. Watch yer mouth.
  9. Don't take what ain't yers.
  10. Don't be hankerin' for yer buddy's stuff.
Now that's kinda plain an' simple, don't ya think? Y'all have a nice day.

PERSONAL AD

This has to be one of the best singles ads ever printed. It is reported to have been listed in the Atlanta Journal.

SINGLE BLACK FEMALE seeks male companionship, ethnicity unimportant. I'm a very good girl who LOVES to play. I love long walks in the woods, riding in your pickup truck, hunting, camping and fishing trips, cozy winter nights lying by the fire. Candlelight dinners will have me eating out of your hand. I'll be at the front door when you get home from work, wearing only what nature gave me. Call (404) 875-6420 and ask for Daisy, I'll be waiting....
Over 15,000 men found themselves talking to the Atlanta Humane Society.
