Howdy!

I've neglected me blog -ARG!


We've all been really busy as of late. A week or so ago Matt and Joy were finally here. Sweet Matty B. is in the picture. Note the classic Van sneaks. He informed me they were first made in 1966, the year before my birth. We spent about half of that week in Navarre and half in Chipley. We had good fun basically just being together.



Last week is a bit of a blur. I'm getting into the swing of my job and all is well there. It's strenuous, but I'm getting the hang of everything.



This week has been all about the produce. Cousin Karen and I went to Robinson-Floyd Vinyard in Chipley and picked 15 lbs of scuppernong grapes (sp?). That same day Dad and I went to cousin Bill's and got four 5 gallon buckets of pears. Needless to say, the pears have kept us busy today. Mom is making preserves with 1/2 of them, and cousin Carla will use the rest up in Atlanta. I will hopefully post more pics tomorrow. Dial up just is very slow when posting pics and what not. I try to get to the library at least once a week to post more pics and post more quickly.

Stay tuned for future topics (Mom's B-day party, Puss Caterpillar, Catawba worms). I know all of you CAN'T wait!

Mama Gladys

Mama Gladys (AKA Mom) is here in Navarre this weekend for niece Natalie's dance recital. I can't go because I have to work my BBCJ (backbreaking cleaning job). I am taking antibiotics for my sinus infection but they don't seem to be doing the trick, as I still feel AWFUL.

Anyhoo, Mom, as usual, "set us up" with something special. She bought Cheryl a pink hat for her walks and a bag of fresh cherries (Cheryl has a major thing for fresh cherries). For Natalie Mom made Nat's favorite coconut cookies and bought her some fresh asparagus. Mom took me out for lunch and got me some fertilizer for my container garden. She's purdy, aint she! This is a picture from when we went to Tampa last week.

For mom, we got pay per view "New in Town" which we all thoroughly enjoyed. We've had a nice day and are celebrating Mama Gladys! Pic below of "New in Town" is from IMDB.



Please continue prayers for folks in Wyoming: Sid (still hospitalized), nephew Matt, sis Joy, Joy's husband Mike and his family and all others involved...
