Really Just TWO?


 Camping is the life especially when I am the guest and others are responsible for all the work.

   We woke up to the sound of a high wind rocking the camper, then a huge crash! We left the awning up. 

    No reason to take it down, it was a beautiful balmy summer evening, so hot we hated to abide by the no generators after eleven pm.  We suffered in... not silence as we all sweated and flopped around to get more comfortable. 

     Finally a bit of  relief as the wind quickly cooled everything down, then the huge crash! Oh no!

   The Awning pole is bent just a little.  Pam's  #4 son quickly helped us get it down. May as well stay up we are all drenched from the sudden rain.

    Sweet  son #4 so thoughtful and kind brought us milk and cereal for breakfast. No bowls, oops. He found a huge fruit bowl. I said I can eat out of  a coffee filter.  I truly thought he was going to share as I held out my little coffee filter. he dumped out TWO little mini frosted shredded wheat bars. TWO! 

  " Really? Just two? "

   #4 said, "You said you wanted a couple so two is a couple." 

   "Oh my word, I didn't want it filled to the brim I just wanted... well more than two.

Saga of the Hat

Saga of the Hat     Going to the beach at Tybee Island, we need a hat. Keep our wrinkles and lines just where they are, no adding family members.    At a flea market in Anderson IN. I bought a huge floppy monstrosity of a hat. Not my thing. I don’t want my lines making friends. It will do.      First day at Tybee Island, I realized I did not bring enough shorts for the beach. I went in search of new shorts. What I found was the perfect hat. White straw with a black band. This is me.   Twenty dollars later, I am wearing my new hat. I am a happy Professional Tourist!     My new hat is a tad loose, no problem, I have a sewing kit somewhere. (That was the key word somewhere...) Pam came to the rescue with her sewing kit. I put a few stitches inside the lining band and tightened it up.  After a few experiments with the breeze... and more stitches I had  enough to keep the hat secured to my head. Proof... I never lost my ha...

Lost You Are

  I was on my way home from my friend's house two hours away. Van always drove us, now I use my GPS.    I called my sister to visit while driving home, as I talked to her, I mentioned, I don't remember Road construction on the way down here.     My GPS was strangely silent, not saying a word, like she was gagged or something. I poked the button... Apparently someone forgot to put in an address... no wonder she wasn't yelling at me!    Valerie: "Sounds like you're lost."   Me: "Nope I'm still on the road heading north, I'm not lost, know right where I am... IN ROAD CONSTRUCTION."    Dustin: Sounds like you might be lost.    Me: Nope, I know where I'm going! I can't be lost! I might end up in Kansas..."    Dustin, (her son):"you want us to put out an APB on ya?"   Valerie: "Why would you put out an All Peanut Butter tracker on her?"   Me thinking, you really are special.    Me: No worries I forg...
