Good morning everyone.
Everything is fine with me. The tornado was about 2and 1/2 hours away from us and the shooting at the School was about 35 minutes away. It was a really bad week. Still trying to get a program that will let me download that picture. When I get it I'll send it . Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend. Oh Good news sort of. My daughter is going in for laser eye surgery so it disqualifies her from duity for 9 month. So well have 9 months to talk her out of joining the Marines. Some bad news though is my sister just found out she has breast cancer. So pray for her.

Good morning, Happy Friday! Blondie, wow you can't catch a brake weather wise. Hope the weekend is nicer.
Jean would love to see the picture, I have to email the picture from my phone to myself, then save on my comp. Then post it here.
DsMom, I wouldn't mind some cooler weather either, we have been dealing with the endless summer for over a year now :-(
Jean yes very crazy weather everywhere.
