Your Mother?

Actually! Can you believe it?

I, at this age, have been taking care of my looks, for once.

Last time Evonne was in Rogers, she helped me pick out lip stick (which I haven't worn for years). When Henrietta was here last, she left me a tube of age defying makeup, which covers all the dark blotches on my skin. Now today they are trimming by toe mails and latter filing and painting my fingernails.

I feel like a queen and enjoying ever minute of it.

They had a new riddle om the board this morning and I solved it. "Why is a cook mean?" Because he beats the eggs and whips the cream. For being so up on all that stuff, I got a large Hershey's candy bar. Now they have a new one. What do a Mountain--golf course and appliance store have in common? You tell me? Probably the answer is nothing.

I put the little old couple playing cards on the shelf outside my door. Trudy and Nelson gave us them years ago. I have had so many remarks about them. Everyone thinks they are so cute. One even thought the old lady looked like me (with tongue in check)

Believe it

Yeh-next month will be ushering in spring. The Bible has assured us that there will always be a summer- winter- spring and- fall. Isn't that great? It is beautiful outside the window this morning. The trees are all frosted up--the snow is lying untouched by tracks of birds or humans--nothing is moving except and occasional slow moving car.

In a few weeks the road will be cleared--the kids back in school--the suns rays will be stronger -melting the snow and the crocus will be pushing their heads up through any remaining piles.

Have been helping the activity director finishing valentines. Other residents have cut the valentines out -cut ribbons a right length--made bows and now I am gluing the hearts together and attaching the bows-- the end project will be used at our" Choclate Tasting " Valentines party next week. They plan so many nice things for us to do.
