SUMMER IS HERE!

Sorry I haven't written much lately. Been so busy getting ready for VBS at Newton County Cowboy Church in Jasper, Arkansas. We meet at the Newton County Fairgrounds every Sunday night at 6:00p.m. Everyone is welcome to join us for some singing, a message and just good fellowship. Our VBS theme is Wanted by God. Lessons are ready, games are planned out, food is being taken care of and I am working on Christian crafts. Ages is K - 6th grade. I will have everything posted on my facebook page.

Our schnauzer, Sir Leroy Spydmonker, has been very sick. They had to hook him up to an IV 3 times just to get him hydrated. He has pancreaitis and we think he might have had a heat stoke. He was spoiled rotten before he got sick and now is more spoiled. I spent 11 hours at the vet in 2 days just waiting for all the tests and the IVs to get done. But, he is worth it!!!

While I was there, I got a chance to take some photos of their flower gardens. So, I want to share some of them with you. Those who know me, know that I don't have a green thumb but, I love taking pictures of flowers. So here goes -

I promised to take them a couple of pictures for their office. So, will work on that next week.

If you live in the Harrison area, I will be teaching a scrapbook class on Saturday, 7/13 from 9a.m. to 1p.m. at the Grubb Springs Community Building on Hwy. 43 & 397. Class is limited to 26 people and is $3.00 which includes lots of goodies. Call 870-391-9431 and leave a message with your name & phone number so we can get your name on a goodie bag. This is a community event sponsored by the Grubb Springs Extension Homemakers Club. Bottled water & snacks will be provided. All you need to bring is 6-10 photos and a pair of paper scissors. If you have glue and paper cutter, bring them also.

 

Does anyone like sidewalk art?? I got some pictures off the internet to share with you. My friend, Jim Bradshaw, and I loved it and talked about how great it would be to have that kind of talent and could draw a small version on the sidewalk in front of our Walmart store (where we both worked).

What an illusion!!!

 

I have been having some horrible headaches again. There are days that I just can't seem to function. You would think I would be use to this after all these years, but that isn't happening.

 

One good thing, I got my boot off. That fractured foot finally healed. Guess the ultra sound treatments did their job. I still have to be careful for 4 weeks and if I go shopping and will be walking a lot, I have to wear the boot.

 

Our granddaughter, Krystan, is on the Springdale trail ride. They left Friday morning. She is having so much fun. Barney took our horse trailer with living quarters for her to have a place to sleep. I think he plans to ride a couple of days.

 

Friends of ours were getting rid of their dachund, Dollie, so she now belongs to our family. She is so sweet. She sleeps under the covers and all you see sticking out is her nose. I will have to get some pictures.

 

That's about all for this time. Haven't made anything. Will work on a few things for my next blog. Keep cool and be safe. Jan
