Announcing important message....

Hi Everyone,

TESS JANIK'S flight has been CANCELED,It will
be resumed on New Years Day,in other words tomorrow.
Yesterday I lost my message which I worked hard in composing,
But as I was closing the message on my computer said,"Your unfinished message is waiting to be sent,so will click on
Send Message to see if it is TRUE,Luv M~G~GrG~T.
Happy New year to you all.

Ending the year,with old mouse.

Hi Ho Everyone,

I tried to rough up the old mouse,BUT It didn't work like it did when
Ross W' roughed it up. So I guess we'll be heading out for a new one.

We had a nice Christmas at Dean And Sandy's Sandy did all the
cooking and preparing for the Kapp side of the family this next week-end
Will be the Narat/Entringer get-together. That no doubt will be a much
quieter group.
(correction,after the Ross W. there is an apostrophe and it should be a
period
But with my rebelious mouse I don't want to try and correct it) That
goes
for correcting my spelling also,
no going to Spell-Check,Oh,No. half the
time
Spell-Check doesn't know THE word I'm looking for anyway,

The snow has melted about 85% the intersections are almost clear so's
you can see if cars are careening for you as you slowly poke the front
of the car out to cross over to the other side. We saw 2 such accidents
on Forest Home Ave. bringing Flynn home from School.

Since I haven't written for such a long tim,YOU'D think I would have so
much(e) that belongs after the word tim.)NEWS to write about,I have however
buillt up a quite a large Phone-Bill. (Please pay no attention to
wrong
spelling)
or to words that need spaces. No need to point them out in your
answereing
correspondance. I guess that's about it from ME,Luv,M~G~GrG~T.
NOw to get to the Send Mail and print,Oh pain.

Mike Janik left for Glory Dec 2nd 2007.

Hi Everyone,
I'm finally getting everything ready for our 60th Anniversary Party,
Probably by Friday all things will be cleaned,dusted and in Tip-Top
Shape.Trust Me !

Today I'm going to hem the throws for the NEW furniture,(I take them
off when I see company coming) Throws on furniture is so tacky,But
with 2 dogs, two grandchildren that come over five times a week,Throws DO seem neccessary. Flynn got some ink lines on the NEW
furniture,after
I told him not to use pens, I showed .him what he had done, and being one
of us he put a toss pillow over it.(sight unseen,no problem) I did take
it out
with some aerosol hairspray.it worked like a charm.

I'm reading a book about cleaning in one minute,most of the things she
(a housewife) tells how to have everything look nice for unexpected
company,I've already discovered for myself.
In one of Dear Abby's columns
a lady gave some GOOD hints, load a sinkful of dirty dishes into the
oven,
pick up clutter thoughout the house where guests might gather and hide
them behind the shower curatain,unexpected guests will never know unless
of course your oven has a window in the door,and if perchance someone
needs to use the bathroom and peeks behind the shower curtain.

MY mouse needs to be replaced, It's difficult to control. the arrow gets
lostand it's very difficult to get to the spell-check.
I'd REALLY to get inthe habitof writing e-mails every week-day. (I know you're all looking for some
difficult
word that I needed to use spell-check for, how about aerosol ?)

That's bout all the time I have since I'm not used to spending this much
time
lately on this computer.Love,Mom~Gramma~GrGrammaThelma

PROVERBS 12:26

JOHN^^^^^^^ John Never looks at the Subject Line, this PROVERB
is for Everyone,not just John,Even ME.
Good Morning Everyone,
Yesterday Dad and I took our Beloved 48 Dodge out to Uncle Doc and
Aunt Lorraine's We took them for a Semi-Ride through the lovely homes
in their part of the woods. We blew the HORN a couple of times and Dad
Dad passed an old farm vehicle on the way back,Dad said,"This is the only
thing this car has ever passed." We had a nice time,we didn't stay long
asthe weather looked threatening,as it was we just got home just before it
rained.
Aunt Lorraine is thin and looks shorter than me, Mrs Barth was very short
to begin with,but when she got older she was REALLY short,she was making
lunch for her company and stirring something in a big pot on the stove,
she said,"If I get any shorter I won't know WHAT"S cooking."
Mrs Barth was Carla Seeger's Gramma. (The quick quip is inherited.)
Aunt Lorraine's hair is long in the back and tapered on the sides with
bangs
in the front(IN case any of you don't know where bangs GO) With our
Finnish inheritance she has an oriental look.(Cute)I was going to insert
thislast paragraph somewhere in the last paragraph.but couldn't exactlckely,
(I KNOW) figure out where to insert it.
I think before we get our OUT-OF-TOWN-COMPANY I'm going to invite all
of THE-IN-TOWN-COMPANY over with vacuum cleaners,dust mops and
scrub rags, and other cleaning paraphemalia over for a pot-luck lunch.
Who
of all of you thinks I'm kidding??????? Dust is my nemesis among otherthings. Love,Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma.

Muddling thru.

A WEAK hello.
I couldn't send out Jen's message to Eddie Adams or Lori Kanarek.
(for some uknown reason) I also got a confusing e-mail wanting
some information on Mom's 60th Birthday next month,it's signed
Jen. I'm assuming it's Wendy Kapp's Birthday (Jeff's wife) their
daughter is named Jenny. But WHY ME?
We went to Don Vogel's funeral on Saturday afternoon, He was a
Born-Again Christian according to the Pastor from a Pentecostal
church. Don was 77 years old,Carol his wife died two years ago.
Don's son Kieth said when I introduced myself as Thelma Kapp,
he said "You're Eddie's wife,Dad Said Eddie Kapp was the
BEST KNUCKLE BALL pitcher there ever was.
"Dick and Lois Spilger were the only one's we knew there besides
Kermit. They live in Arizona during the winter months.
I haven't finished my "THROW IN ONE DAY" waiting for my wrist
and thumb to heal. It's little things like that,that make one realize
the years are passing by. I stopped and talked to Betty Townsend
last week,I saw her out raking leaves,Lily saw her too and headed
over to see her(She has milk-bones for passing dogs she knows)
anyway I mentioned the THROW I was making for Dad,
She said,"I'm waiting for (she named her) to pick up 250 knitted caps she
had made for some Bazaar, and I also have a throw,that you can have."
So I took it, First I said,"No" but she wouldn't take that answer. Betty
is a GOOD friend.
PS,If you don't know WHICH letter from Jennifer I couldn't send to
Eddie Adams Or Lori Kanarek Let me Know,Maybe none of you got it.
LOVE,MOM~GRAMMA~GrGRAMMA~THELMA.

SCHYE,SIGH,SEYE,(?)

BIG HELLO,
Yesterday Jen called Dad the WIND had blown the door off it's hinges
off her front door.(she fixed it with a rock) But it need a much more
professional
touch. So we went over Dad fixed it while I did the dishes(which I am
very
capable of.)
Today is our day off from Flynn And Tess,There's something special going
on at School. I PLAN on doing some things that I can spend the whole day
doing
without interuption.
Today David Barton was talking about the differences of the environmental
people,from Godly people. The E-Group is exactly opposite from the G-People.They
put plants,fish ,animals before people( a descendancy) putting plants
animals etc
before the highest form of life MAN,While God starts out with
plants,fish birds animals
below the highest form of life,MAN ("Asides" He made WOMAN LAST)That
speaksfor it's self Me thinks. Look at countries and see how THEY treat their
Women and
you can tell that they are an ungodly country.
I haven't finished the throw in one day as I thought i would,It may take
me another
whole day. the last time I did that I was 20 years or so younger, my hand
got a
cramp in it and the thumb on my left hand started hurting. Also around
9:30PM
I dozed off a bit. At 81 I CAN use all the excuses I want
to,Luv,M~G~GrG~T.

Rite,right,ya write.

HI on this rainy Friday morning
Log in on Republican Platform 2008 and Democratic Platform 2008.
And Vote.
Today I'm crochet ing a throw in one day, it's Creamy Cream,just like
the
walls etc. except I added a sage green in a double yarn with a big hook,
It's Shelley's mom Loa's pattern.

That's the NOTE from here.Love,Mom

dilema over POLYTICKS??

HI Everyone,
Here's a news flash,Flynn had 2 count extra helpings of ...............
HAMBURGER HELPER TACO CRUNCH. I make MY Hamburger
Helper with Chop Suiey meat.Is it souxie? sooy? I know it's not Suiey,
I'm not stupid you know, I just don't know the correct spelling for suey,
and neither has Spell Check. Anyway Chop Suey Meat has more class.
I asked Jennifer last night if I had permission to rearrange her
house,she
said,"Go ahead." So today if I can persuade Dad to leave a little early
and
go over there before we pick up Flynn and Tess,I will make a preliminary
assessment of the situation (I already have something in mind) and start.
There's something about fixing up other peoples premises that I enjoy
doing.They can rearrange things back if they want to. Like Trina and John
do
after I leave California.
Memo to Ross W.
That's about it from here. Vote for the lesser of 2 evils, If it hadn'tbeen for
Ross Perot, Bill Clinton wouldn't have been President. Remember what it
says in 2 Chronicles 7:14 "If My people,who are called by My Name,will
humble themselves and PRAY and seek my face,then I will hear from
Heaven forgive their sins and heal their land.(It might be 1 Chronicles?)
so it's up to US.Love,Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma

Rainy,Gloomy,Soggy,BEAUTIFUL Day.

Hidy Ho.
Friday on our way home from Lincoln Elementary School,(Flynn who
sits in the back seat with me,Tess in the front with Dad,Tess and Flynn
together makes an uncomfortable ride Home.) Anyway what I was about
to tell you: Flynn knocked my hat off and put it on his head and said,
I'm Gramma and you're Flynn......Dialog for a few lines. (Flynn is a
VERY fussy eater.)And my cooking is well-known.
(Me as Flynn) "What are we going to have for supper?
(Flynn as Me)"Something weird"
(Me as Flynn) "I'm not going to eat it,"
(Flynn as Me)"Oh,Yes you ARE."
(Me as Flynn) Oh ,NO I'm Not."
(Flynn as Me)YES,you ARE."
(Me as Flynn) Even the smell of it makes me sick to my stomach."
(Flynn as Me) "I haven't even COOKED it yet."
Perhaps you should have been there to see the humor in it,But
even those in the front seat had to laugh.

Sandy is so funny everyone,Trust me,she is.

How about those Packers? I watched part of the game,I'm trying not
to get involved with football so much as I used to be.LUV,M~G~GrG~T.

51*F no wind (wind chill 51*F)Very pleasant

Thank you John,Dean and the rest of you one liners.
I'm terribly sorry about neglecting you all week, but Flynn was here,
Tuesday and Wednesday,We were at his house on Monday from
(well we left home at 7:30AM and got home about 6:00PM.)
I have a terrible dilemma, I have figured out in my head how to get
Jennifer's house in order,like where to put things(Out of sight.)
But Dad doesn't go along with my thinking, What would any of you
do if I sneaked over to YOUR house and rearranged it? Let me
KNOW or NO?
Dad and I walked Daisy and Lily together this morning it is very pleasant
out as I mentioned in the Subject line, John.(John doesn't read theSubject
Line,Everyone.)
I painted the book case that I got from the People that moved into and
out of Leinbecks,(A LONG TIME AGO) I painted it to match the walls,
Now the WOODWORK,DRAPES,BOOK CASE,COUCH,LOVESEAT,
SWIVEL ROCKERS and DISPLAY CASE. ALL match the walls. (It's
Mind boggling,to say the least)
Kermit brought over 2 DVD's of My 80th Birthday Party, I'm sending 1 to
Ross,who in turn will send it (FEDX no doubt )(Ross wasn't at the party,)
John and Trina who will probably send it to Eddie and Betsy.(It's a
barrel
of laughs) Keep in mind all the weird things I supposedly did occured
over a
60 period ,not like I was some kind of a nut all the time.
Love Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma

Just a note...

Hi Ho Everybody what is listening in(Molly Goldberg)!

Thank you Annie for MO's BarBQ sauce,I had some last night
on my "Chicken Spears) fancy name for chicken breasts cut in
strips. It tastes pretty much(with a slight variation to
..................
"SWEET BABY RAY'S") I'm set for about a months supply of
BBQ sauce. For dinner today we had LBT,sandwiches I also had
a bowl of Icecream. Dad didn't.

I had a weird dream last night It was just a snatch of a dream.
Bill Clinton had hired a hit-man to kill Barak Obama, (I saw him hiding
under a table behind a cabinet) when all of a sudden he was born-again.
he ran out from where he had been hiding with the gun,ready to turn
it in to the police,When Bill Clinton ran after him and said<"Don't do it
I'm born-again and don't do it. I guess that's the answer I told Jen
it was so real, Jen said she's had real dreams like that and then
the horse talked.

Today we take Flynn and Tess to their home,because they have Slovak
Dancing tonight,) when Jen picks them up at our house it takes her too
long to get them to Menominee Falls on time. I made a peanutbutter and jelly
sandwich for Tess a sliced apple and 2(count them2) Milkyway bars,the
same for Flynn except no peanutbutter not even butter just jelly.
they also get a bottle of water to wash it all down.

Thanks again Annie for the Mo's,I always get so angry at the UPS guy,
who stops in front of our house and leaves packages for Becky and
Rhett and when Julie was here Julie, so now he stopped in front of
our house for ME(Becky and Rhett are next door neighbors(both single
(across the street)Love,Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma.

hello,Hello,HELLO HELLOHOH.

Is anybody out there?
Thanks for the picture Boe my computer says something about not
being able to plug in. it shows the picture with the statement not able
to plug in, in the center of the picture. I look the same on all my
pictures.I thought I'd look better yesterday,but oh no.

We had a full day(even tho it rained the entire day) Church,Home Ate
lunch,went to West Allis car show,Greenfield Ave was blocked off,but because of
the weather,people and CARS were leaving, went to The Life Chain, holding
umbrella and signs,Dad's and Dean's Read,"ABORTION KILLS CHILDREN."
theirs printed in large blue,mine in red said:"JESUS FORGIVES AND HEALS"
Kermit drove past and honked. Thanks for showing up Kermit,we thought
maybe because of the inclement weather you thought it had been called
off.
I said to Dad,"satan thought nobody would show up," Dad said,"I wish that

would be all the power he had."Actually his only power is deceit, if we
allow ourselves to fall for his tricks saying as he said to Eve,"did God
really
say?" (In other words God is holding back on you.)"You shall surely NOT
die."He can't change his tactics. he makes sin look like fun,but in the end
deathfor eternity. in hell.

Fran Marlenga called yesterday and said one of her sisters died,Theresa
Foley,I need to look it up in the Journal?Sentinel. She was in a home in
Cedarburg.
I think she just celebrated her 90th Birthday. Fran's Mother lived to be
100plus.
Thats it from here..Tell me which key I hit to make this so
small.Love,Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma.

OK,OKAY,OH,KAYE!!

SORRYabout yesteday's lack of e-mail, There wasn't the usual 24 hours,
someone moved the hours ahead,(it happened a couple of times in the
Bible,so Jesus is the same,yesterday,today and forever.It could've
happened)
Jennifer requested Meatloaf,mashed potatoes and coleslaw,for last night's
repast. we went grocery shopping and (you can request having an extra
aamontof money (cash) added to your bill) But the computer rejected the $30.00
we
wanted added ) it would only take the106.00 for the actual grocerybill.)We had to
pick


[email abrubtly ends, see post below]

The OK'S extended.

As I was saying before I was so rudely interupted by some unknown
force,and lost my former e-mail.
We picked up Flynn and Tess and hurried home because I left the
oven with the meatloaf in it on,(?) is there a dangling paticiple in that
last sentence? Anyway here's a first, Flynn Actually said as he tasted
the meatloaf,"THIS IS GOOD" Jennifer tried to get him to repeat it,but
he couldn't bring himself to do it. He did say the mashed potato's
tasted like chalk, and the corn I made especially for him tasted bland.
I pity his poor wife unless he changes. He kinda reminds me of Ross W.
who wouldn't eat anything he hadn't eaten before and wouldn't try
anything
new. Barb in her own quiet way changed all that. NOW Ross will try all
things. After Ezra and Susan were married awhile I caught Craig doing
the dishes,I said to Susan, I trained him to do that at home."Yay,Right
she said. Today is another harried day with cleaning and dusting and
run`of~the~mill~stuff. I DO have a helper now though, his name is DAD.
Love,Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma.

PS,Read Ephesians today, Chapter1 through Chapter 6.
You'll find out who your enemies are and how to defeat
them, husbands will know how to have a happy home, and
wives likewise.

OCTOBER 1st.

Good Morning Everyone,
It is definitely a fall feeling here in Milwaukee, And Thanks Annie
for making a BLOG for me, All of you will really notice from now on
how my spelling has improved, my punctuation marks will be in the
proper places. (I couldn't get into the BLOG with this computer,
probably just as well,you all know what a problem I have with the
dreaded PRIDE)

Yesterday after I cleaned up the grapevines, there were only a few
I could use,I kinda noticed that when I cut down Pat,The Poet's vines
But she was out helping me so I couldn't say so. Anyway Dad said,
(before I took the leaves off)"Why don't you just go out and buy one?"
I have this creative thing,that I usually don't know what to do with. So
I just muddle through,Like I don't know what to do with the 9 vines,but
when Pat,The Poet,asks me how the wreath is I'll have to say,"It turned
out
nicely,but small." I have to soak them and then wind them up. (No doubt
that
sounds like a waste of time to some of you.)

I haven't walked Lily yet,she's waiting patiently at the top of the
stairs for meto finish this letter. My hair is dry now so I'll take Lily for our daily
trek.
Love Mom~DGramma~GrGramma~Thelma

EXCUSE,EXCUSES

Yesterday flew by like a bird, after I walked the dogs,I watched
The Believers Voice Of Victory on TV Jeremy Pearsons had an
author named John Beveres on he's the author of a book called
"Honor's Reward". Jesus COULD do no healing in His hometown
because of lack of Honor, Pople said,"ISN'T THIS the carpenter'sson?"
"Doesn't his Mother,Brothers and Sisters live here among us?"
(In other words who does he think he is?) For lack of Honor He COULD
do NOTHING. It's the same today.
Hi Everyone,

When I went passed Pat The Poet's house she asked me if I still
wanted her grape vines for a wreath,so after I got home I went down
with a cart with wheels and cut down the vines,also we exchanged
books, (just loaners) she has about 188 pages of poems,while MY
book is only 10 chapters long. Pat was a W.A.V.E. in WW2. I run
into so many interesting people don't you think?

Today I must strip the vines and put the leaves in the garbage can
also Dad thinks we should throw away Earl's old picnic table and
benches. (Good Idea).

The dogs are whining,no doubt wondering why they aren't on their
way,on their daily jaunt.(insert YESTERDAY after house ^ above)
I could have done it on the computer,but the paragraph was so neat.
I didn't want to mess it up.Love,Mom~Gramma~GRgramma~Thelma.

THE END...

Hi Everyone,

Trina was Melva the one and same from"THE WORD CENTER"?
WHO I remember from "THE WORD CENTER' was Al Vieu,who
I saw in the lobby of a theater where Dad and I went to see the
story of Mathew,(The Mathew of Mark,Luke and John.Mathew) I
was just a new Born-Again Christian and this man(I didn't know
his name at the time)came up to me and said,"the Lord said,
YOUwill never be without money."
Later I saw him at "THE WORD CENTER"And heard his name,
He was also a friend of John Piel.(It's a smallworld).

Today Flynn and Tess are not coming over,Jen is picking them up and
going somewhere(?)right from school.

I have so many plans for today,most involves buying somethings from
our NEW Hardware Store. I Love Hardwares Stores,Actually you see
more women in hardwares stores looking for stuff. The house down
the block is putting new siding on.It's called Dutch Siding,it's grey,but
looks kind of greenish,it looks like logs. HIs wife picked it out,when it
comes to decorating Men SHOULD always listen to their wives.

See you next week be The Good Lord willing,Love,M~G~GrG~T.

so,sew,sow.

So sorry I missed yesterday,it was a day of forgetfulness.
We forgot that on Wednesday,Flynn and Tess get out of
school at 2:28 instead of 3:28,we were an hour late,but
there they were waiting for an hour,playing on the playground.
Flynn playing 4 square and Tess hanging around and
riding someone's bike and swinging on the Monkey Bars.
there were about a dozen kids,still there and we noticed
other parents coming late also,we were one of the early
late ones.

Tess went to The Lutheran Nursing Home on Monday her
partner was Margaret who was 89,"She's older than YOU
Gramma."(It was a field-trip.) Tess wheeled her back to
her room,I bet that was SOME trip with Tess at the helm,

I've decided to start eating healthy,no need to buy another
"Eat Healthy" recipe book,I have dozens of them,practically
brand new. I'll just crack one of them open and DO what it
says to do. I noticed that most of the people at Manor Park
where Aunt Davida resides have a fat belly. If that's what it
takes to end up in a nursing home,well I don't want it.

started writing early before I take Lily and Daisy for their
daily trek. We'll see if that works out better. Today is of
course Aunt Davida Day, Washing Day and Shopping Day
WHY,I wonder does it all fall on THURSDAY? I dunno?
Love~Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma.

A short note.

HI,
Since I have no letters to reply to, and not much is happening
around here,PRAISE THE LORD for that too. and since I have
only 4 minutes till My TV show, I'll have to sign off,Love,ME.

The Partys Over.

Hi Everyone,
Dad made it to the party(he reluctantly came inside to eat, at Dorothy
Pospisils urging)
He had a lingering cough,but not too bad. I was glad Dorothy insisted.
We had a good
time. I guess there will be one again next year.WE took the '48 Dodge
over,All the oldguys swarmed around it,Dad honked the horn for them.(r&n together looks
like an m: rn)

I think I'm over being a FOOTBALL FAN, That game is just too rough for me
to watch.
I went to bed early and woke up at 1:49AM, Woe is me. I did do some extra
praying.

I need to get busy this morning, I got 2 magazines in the mail
Saturday,which were
still in the mailbox this morning, I put a letter in the Mailbox to Ben
Schoenborn
who couldn't make it to the party because he had a cancerous lump rmoved
fromhis face,We all signed a card to send to him.(anyway what I was going to
say was)
I looked through the magazines so I'm behind schedule.

I haven't walked Lily and Daisy yet either, YOU all may think, WHAT does
she HAVEto do? There's always something,you know,Even us retired people,
Something always
pops up believe me, those of you approaching "The Golden Years".

That's about it from these parts.Love,Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma.

No Fish Today.

TOMORROW is the big day,WELL semi-big, THE -UP-NORTH-PARTY.
Pray thet the cough that's lingering on, on Dad will leave. I don't think
I
like going to parties alone.

HI Everyone,
Friday,this week has sped by as they seem to be doing lately, not just
for old people either, school kids notice the time flying by too.


Flynn read the E-Mail about the kind and merciful Gramma that felt like
punching his little face in. He crumpled it up and threw it in the
garbage.
KIds are so sensitive nowadays.

Can't think of anything to write about,SSSOOOOO have a nice week-end.
Love Mom,Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma.

read~reed~red~read..

Hi,ho,hi,ho,It's off to work we go.
Just think about this,Flynn would not eat but a teaspoon full of
Weinnie,Beanies and American-style fried potatoes,and that
with a wrinkled up nose and a snear on his face. I, as a loving
merciful Gramma resisted the temptation to smash his little
face in.
I just read the Subject-line , it sounds like it would make a cute poem.
Read,Reed,Red,Read, Time for you to go to bed. Get the drift?

Shopping today ! Washing clothes today ! Aunt Davida night,(today)!

Thanks for the Bible reading program, maybe I'll do the same after I
finish
2nd Chronicals today, Craig did you get the message from John,telling
you where to go to get information on the meaning of names in the
Old Testament?,Veddy Intahresting...Isaiah means:: Wrestle with God.

::Wrestle with Man.

That's about all my busy schedule will allow,plus you all know that I AM
81,
Albeit in excellent health and Blessed Without Measure.Phil Driscole (SP)
wrote this little ditty,(you can figure out the music to it,it's very
simple) If not
call me and I will sing it out loud to you.
"Oh, The Blessing of Abrahams on me,
Oh, The Blessing of Abrahams on me,
Oh, the Blessing is for me,
And The Blessings flowing through me,
Oh, The Blessing of Abrahams on me." Love,Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~T.

flower,flour,floure'

GOOD MORNING,
Floure':French,to recline in a lazy manner.(I just made that up.)
We took Flynn and Tess to their home yesterday after School
because it is their Slovak Dance Night and it's too far from
here to Menominee Falls,they're always late. I walked Hope
about a mile up and down the block,then Hannah about four times
up and down the block,when Jen came home.

What to make for supper tonight? I believe if I lived by myself,
Iwould eat beans and rice for every meal, with perhaps different
types of beans,with perhaps different spices and sauces. I love
the Bar-B-Q sauce "SWEET BABY RAY" It was Mike Janik's
favorite. One day while at Jen's house I tried it,
and have been
hooked on it ever since. Just one of my tid-bits that I throw in
once-in-a-while.

The Biggest Loser is back on for another season, They say you
can log on to biggestloser.com and join in and lose along with
the people on the show,eating and exercising the same as they.
Boe or someone else will have to do it to include me, I don't
seem to log on to things like that too well,But then I know what
to do. Take this round stone heat it to a moderate temperature,
rub in on the Appestat nerve and with proper diet and excercise.Viola.
The pounds will just melt away. ( I just made that up too)

That's the scoop from these parts.Love,M~g~GrG~T.

I just wrote a long letter and got stuck in the spell-check on the
word scoliosis, I'm not about to check it out again, so here goes once
more,"you have no messages in your Outbox" so I'll start all over again,
Hi Everyone,
I walked the dogs this morning one-dog-at-a-time then I went to The Bible
-
Study at Church,but no one showed up,I'm not a regular anymore so perhaps
they are meeting at peoples homes again because of all the little Babies
that
are showing up at Church. Anyway I read Ezekiel 38 & 39, (If I were Gog
and Magog I would be shivering in my boots)While waiting for someone
to arrive.Then I read the last book of the Bible I am reading outloud
I've
read all of them aloud,(Faith comes by hearing and hearing by The Word)
That's why I decided to do it. I left 1st and 2nd Chronicles till
last,(should have
read them first.I READ EVERY name in 1st Chron. )

Then I wrote Did anyone happen to see "The Doctors" on channel 58?
It was about plastic surgery on a 15 year old Vietnams girl with a 12 lb
tumor on her face, It was benign and could have been removed when
it was small,but she lived in a remote part of the country and Doctors
there said nothing could be done. A Missionary contacted a Doctor in
The States and they preformed an 11 hour surgery they had to make a new
jaw for her and attach all the muscles to make the jaw work. they brought

her out on TV 3 months after the operation she is a cute little girl
But needs several more surgerys, She will need teeth implants too.
She had a sweet smile. The Main Doctor said,(her name is Lai) Changed
my life I no LONGER get upset with slow traffic or any other minor
problem thinking of all the problems Lai had for 12 years. They showed
the actual operation on TV after it was over the Doctors and The Nurses
wept.
Tonight is another episode about a 56 year old Mother who is carrying
triplets
for her daughter who can not complete a pregnancy.

I wrote something else,but I forgot what it was.Love,M~G~GrG~T.

Here I am Bright and Early

Good Morning Everybody,
First of all,the weather report, Another Beautiful Gloomy Day.
It rained all week-end here,we needed the rain,The Latter Day Rain.
Dad is getting over the cough that attaches to this virus or cold
whatever it is. He said last night to himself(I only heard it this
morning)
"If I could only sleep for 6 hours without coughing" and He did.
Praise The Lord

I'm in a stenciling mood,Heaven help the bare surfaces around the house.
I found some (actually I was looking for them) I found some Folk ArtStencils.
Some Homespun Stencils and some run-of-the-mill stencils. I may have to
pray about this as once you get started stenciling, it's hard to
stop.All you
stencilers out there, you know what I mean. You become addicted,
Moderation in ALL things is what THEY say. Whoever THEY are.
What do They Know? Is it in Moderation that we Love one another, Is it
moderation to be kind and gentle, not doing too much for others?
That Reminds me We never sent a THANK YOU CARD to Kermit
and Shelley thanking them for the two piece Living Room set Davenport
and Love -seat. we have rearranged it again and they really look nice in
their new location. Thank you Kermit and Shelley ! !

Last week I was cleaning the bathtub around the faucet and the metal ring
fell off,I should say the rusted metal ring fell off in my hand,What to
do?
Dad was sick, Dad doesn't just patch things up he digs down to the
bottom of the problem,while I on-the-other-hand patch things up, as long
as the tear is halted and the leak stops I figure it's fixed, so I got
out
The-Plaster-Of-Paris,mixed it up,applied it to the bare spot around the
faucet,
when it was dry I applied 2 coats of mod-podge.(No leak,FIXED)I usually I
write Viola instead of voilas,but no one seemed to think it was funny
except me,and maybe Trina.(maybe voilas is not the correct spelling but when I
wrote as I
usually do voila the stupid spell-check spelled out viola)

That's about it from here,Ross started work today,he was off for a couple
of
weeks after his Pace-Maker was installed. All of UPS in Phoenix is
rejoicing.
Love,Mom~Gramma~Great Gramma~Thelma

I think I've licked the prob.

If not I'll conact Erin.Kevin or Mariah for help.

Hi Everyone,
Sorry about yesterday,I thought it was Juno's fault,but it turned out
to be mine. I was all set to cancel Juno and try Yahoo or some other
well-known server.

Thanks Ross for the interest, Yesterday I pulled up all the Marigolds
along side of the house(Not my favorite flower,it smells bad and
look sort of like weeds,long legged dandelions) I think I may just put
down some type of mulch,then next spring I'll add some lights that get
their power from the sun,(they don't need watering).

The weather is cooling off,FALL my favorite season of the year.
no bugs,no hot sun beating down on my head. I love working
outside in the fall,unfortunely the planting season is over,but that's
a small price to pay, we'll just get our fresh veggies from the
Pick'nSave.

I haven't been able to get The Woo's wedding pictures. Probably my fault
too.

Dad has contacted the sore throat (that's over with) now only the cough
remains.
but that too will go away in a bit. We are a healthy pair,Praise The Lord

I wasn't prepared to write this morning only trying to boot my computer
back into
working order,thus the lame letter.Love,Mom~Gramma~GrGramma~Thelma

Big problem

I'm not sure I'll be able to send out this message,
Juno hasgiven me only one 414 number I tapped that in,but Juno said
you have not selected a#.

Right on time,

A big HELLO,

Walked the dogs,stopped and visited with Betty Townsend, Sophie,
her Cocker Spaniel is bigger than Daisy and she's only 6 months old.
Sophie wanted to play with Daisy,but Daisy growled and let Sophie
know she doesn't like rough playing,Sophie is a teen-ager while
Daisy on-the-other-hand- is an adult.

What to make for lunch or whatever meal we call it when Flynn and Tess
are hungry. I remember growing boys at our house, about a half-hour
after the dishes were done I'd hear the refigerator door open or the
cookie
jar being raided.
Sept. 20th is our Up-North-Party at Benny's Restaurant on south 27th
street.
I just called Aunt Lorraine to see if she could make it,but she can't.
Aunt Lorraine said to tell Trina she finished the book The 23rd Psalm by
Philip Keller and she loved it. and Thank you.

It's now almost 1PM, so must Skidoo.Love,M~G~GrG~T.

Sorry I';m soooo late.

HI Everyone,
Trina just called and said she hadn't received my daily letter.
That was because I hadn't written it yet. THIS IS WHY.
I cut down 5 count them 5 small trees and made them into
bushes,not exactly Bonsai,but they will never grow above
three feet,for as long as I love here that's for sure,they were
hiding all the flowers out ther,plus the painted flowers on the
fence.

Then I mad Chili for tonights supper, I also made some muffins.
I took out the garbage, cleaned up some stuff in the yard(we have
2 dogs you know).

Today we take Flynn and Tess over to their house,because they have
Slovak dancing tonight. We're also taking some of our Chil over to
Jen, so she won't have to cook for herself tonight. Flynn and Tess will
come over here. till about 5PM. I thought we could take them over to
The HUman Society (Mabye they could pick up a rabbit as they don't
have one of those)they have 2 dogs,2 cats,2 birds.
Dad said we have to leave in 10 minutes so will say Adios.
This letter is not edited...

Oppsey I almost forgot to write.

Hi Everyone,
I've been so busy,and worn out after watching all the tennis matches,and football games, I must be getting too old for all that exercise.

Because of the time lapses I must just apologies for the lateness.and again tonight Roger and Andy Murry will be battleing it out,plusThe Packers and The Vikings, always a royal battle.

I promise tomorrow I will write bright and early, love Me

no substitutes.

Hi Everyone,
I know I'll have to make out another Address Book for my E-Mails,as Lori
has
has a new job, Annie has a new name and probably a new E-Mail address
too.

The reason the subject line is what it is,is that Jen was over a couple
of nights
ago and made me laugh so hard. Jen was saying she was going to make
Macaroni and Cheese,she had boiled the macaroni ,then realized she didn't
have any milk, so she used a box of vanilla pudding instead,it was okay
just a
little sweeter tha usual,she said to me," I am my mother's child.: then
.............
(in the voice that people think is mine.)She said"I don't know why my
reciple didn't turn
out,it called for chicken,I didn't have any,so I substitued baloney
instead,it also called for
vanilla,but the bottle was empty so I substitued red food coloring
instead, it called for
lettuce,which I thought I had,but didn't so I substitued rhubarb
instead.I don't know
WHY it didn't turn out." Perhaps it isn't so funny written,BUT using the
voice that
they all THINK is the way I sound, YOU would have laughed too. I think
she even
used more ingredients than I used.

Our schedule is a little different this year from last year, Jen isworking from 9 to 5.
she takes Flynn and Tess to school ,Dad and I pick them up fromschool,bring them
to our house,Jen picks them up at around 6PM. The kids like it better as
they don't
have to get up so early. they eat supper here. It will work out better
when I get into
the swing of things.
I was a bit timid about waking this computer up, I deleted out all theold mail,I haven't
gotten into the NEW mail,I'm hoping The Wedding pictures will turn upokay,Dad,
(Grampa, saw them at Boe's house,I wasn't available to go along at that
time)
Love,Mom,Gramma,GrGramma,Thelma.
