GOOD MORNING

Ayla is sending lots of love to all those of the clan. She realizes just how blessed she is on a daily basis. What a diversified group in this clan with each one having their own attributes to contribute.

Activities around the cave are very busy. The Cub just had her dental appt (no cavities), has her school physical this next week, enrolls for school, shopping for school clothes, etc etc

The Alien and I are cleaning out the attic, storage room and closets of all unused items (covering the last five years) and getting them ready for the garage sale the Valley View employees are having this next weekend. It will be held in an air conditioned building. We will each have a booth with tables, can take our stuff the night before and set up as the bldg will be locked. I had said I would never have another garage sale, guess that just teaches me to never say "never".

Yesterday, I helped the Alien make the last batch (I hope) of peach jam this season. For some reason he has got the bug this year and we have enough jam and jelly to last for a while (probably a long while).

Well, our oldest "furry boy" is in the dog house, so far back it may take a while to see daylight. Last week he and R were playing in the other room and he bit her. Regardless of what she did or didn't do, he will not be allowed to bite. His only excuse might be he has severe allergies and doesn't feel well at all. He has to get allergy shots about every five weeks.

The youngest furry one stays in lots of trouble. He does things Casper never dreamed of doing such as chewing the wall paper off the wall in the foyer, chewing up the area rugs, chewing up shoes, and on and on. He is so adorable though it is hard to get to upset!! Our golden years have turned into white fur ball years.

My youngest sibling's daughter is getting married this October. She and her new husband will live in Kansas City. The Alien had told her years ago that she had to wait until she was 25 and she was 25 in May so she told him he couldn't complain. Her brother's wife has a kidney transplant in September. M's Mom is donating one of her kidneys.

Our Cub went with our Church group to Texas this last week. They went to watch the Ranger's play on Monday night then spent the night and went to Six Flags on Tuesday. They got home around midnight on Tuesday. She had a good time.

It just occurred to me that we have traded in our knitting and checkers for dog shows and softball games. Time will tell what kind of trade we made!!!

Oh by the way, on my tombstone, I want to be able to say "She was to simplistic to please anyone but God".
