Never to old to learn

Really don't know why I did it- but I said yes, I would try and learn bridge. Just playing with two of the others is great--but the 3rd one is a pain in the patute. If you don't know what that is--ask your mother. It starts with an "A".

Last Fri. morning- I had excellent hands. My partner Velma is 98 years old and we hit it off good. We skunked Pyhlis and Beluah --875 to 2850. Beulah also is 98 and both of them love to play, just to play and have fun. Needless to say the other is only 85 and plays for blood. SHE hates to lose. I really love to have fun and watch those two older ones really enjoy doing something instead of just sitting in their room.

So much for that round of complaining.

Good Friday and Easter

What a wonderful day we had here at the Gardens.

We had one minister come in at 2 o'clock and had a Good Friday sermon. Then at 3 o'clock we had a communion service. Afterwords we sang about 6 different Easter songs. It was wonderful. I cried. Jesus did this all for me.

Sunday I will be going to church with Sentner. We have a good minister there-so should have a very good service. All month , both ministers preached on the coming death and resurrection of Jesus.

April Fools

The first of April has come and gone. I had a big celebration, all by myself. I celebrated , as always, 15 years being thankful for the halo I had for 12 weeks. One nurse told me it might be the only one I'd get.

When I remember back on it--it was terrible. I know I have consequences on account of it---but I'm alive. What a day to remember. The thing I remember best is going out to breakfast to say good bye to Cindy, Kelsy and Miranda. We were leaving the next morning for our first sower's project which was to be at Brono, Ar. at a boys camp. After surgery I throw up all night and the nurses knew I had a big breakfast. At least they said--You've got a good appetite.

A little colored joke I heard from one of my e-mail friends.

A lady got a phone call from her husband who was at work. "Dear will you back my fishing gear? Bob and Joe want me to go along to Canada for the week end." Sure.
"Set out my tackle box, net, rain coat,shaver and clothing. And oh yes-will you also back my silk blue pj.'s?" Sure. "I'll swing around and pick them up before we leave." OK.

He did, and left. Came back on Monday morning. His wife said. " How was fishing dear"? " OH GREAT. Got some bass, northern and pike." Good. "You forgot my pj.s though." "If you had looked in your tackle box you have seen them."
