The Heart's Music Can Heal

  Hello to everyone,especially Stephen.  Hope all of you have been enjoying the beautiful weather.  At least I pray it's beautiful on the East Coast.     I like to close my eyes sometimes and think how lovely the ocean is against the shore line up there.     The cool breeze here has been amazing, so it probably is great up there.      Have today off and trying to fix things around the house. Ugh...my house needs a major makeover :)     Tomorrow, I got to go and do a Cub scout meeting at Michael's.    My supervisor, scheduled it like a birthday party..cool.    After that I don't work until Saturday.  I'm kinda glad, gives me time to work on the house and my artwork .      I wanted to share a first aide technique I discovered just using an Avon product, not sure if I have shared this before, in case I haven't. I will share it again.     I have a gel version of the original...

  Hi Stephen     Hope you and your family are doing good and enjoying the summer, I see the bicycling all over Delaware because of Iron Man , I always think of you especially now..:)   Today was the last day of Camp Creativity at Michael's, and it went well, glad it was a good day , its now back to my classes and KIDS CLUB on Saturdays.  Sure could use some good things to end this month, not sad however to see it go, on top of three local High School Seniors being killed, two by a car accident on Africa Rd, the other I am sure you have heard was killed on a ride at The Ohio State Fair called "The Fireball". My prayer goes out to all the families. Dutch was a cat I gave to my parents and my sister when I moved to Delaware and the kids and I first came down here. Its a long, gruesome story, but Dutch was fifteen years old , my parents neighbors dog came over running with another dog.  They cornered Dutch and another kitty of my sisters. Their nei...

     Wanted to say hello to you Stephen Anthony and everyone in Amesbury, MA .       Thinking about you Schizz. It's been such a long time since I wrote a letter like this, but I'm still thinking about you always!     So I want to send a smile and a wave back.     A big hug too :)

     As dad was recalling memories of us kids , he told of the car he had picked me up from Children's Hospital.    I was born jaundice and premature, delivered by my grandma Sarah Havens.   Both mom and I were taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, know then as Jane Case.   I wasn't getting better, losing weight and dehydrated, they had to transfer me to Children's.   After fluids and a blood transfusion, I improved.   My dad worked at Gene David Buick at the time.    The car my parents had, the heater went out, this was in December, I was born in November of course, so Gene David allowed my dad and my mom to pick me up in the new year Buick Wild Cat.    Gosh, no wonder I love coolest cars..lol.      Hi Stephen, hope and pray you are doing fine and all the family is ok.   Thinking about you Love and prayers to you and everyone. Found pictures of what the 1967 Buick Wild Cat looked like.

  Just this past fourth of July, mom and I were talking about who dad had met who were famous people.   Like mom said, dad has had a interesting life. Back in the 1950's it seemed like dad met several now legendary folks.    I have heard him tell about "Grandpa Jones" he got acquainted with down in West Virginia. Grandpa Jones is a name that is recognized with the family show Hee-Haw.    During his time in the service, he went to a party for Debra  Paget " Lillian The Water Girl" from The Ten Commandments" Met her.       As mom and I were talking, mom mentioned that dad also met Fess Parker during his time stationed in Kentucky.    Dad started to tell the story about how during the filming of Davy Crockett, whom Fess Parker was portraying,  they were shooting the Ohio river.     The scene was to pick up with a Native American jumping from a tree into a canoe.    Sounds easy enough, however not i...

  Had a nice fourth with the family, of course it was a four day weekend.   Been slow at work, but that wasn't what bothers me.   My Aunt Billie was out at my parents house the past two weekends to work on family reunion invitations.     She started a heated debate with my sister and then started on me with politics too.    I'm not as sharp as my sister, she has a wonderful memory about history than me, so needless to say, I failed miserably.   My biggest trouble is I can't express myself very well vocally, more so when I'm upset.   No big deal and no worries, however, I asked mom what was with Aunt Billie anyway.   Mom stated that she does the same with her and my Aunt Janet.   Last time at the Cracker Barrel. Mom usually let's her just blow off.   I guess Aunt Billie started fireworks of her own. Lol.

Wishing everyone a safe and wonderful fourth Love and Prayers with Peace Always
