Help someone in need...

From my friend Alice...

Go to the Kraft web site shown below and with two clicks you can give one box of Kraft Macaroni to someone in need. Isn't that easy? It won't get any easier to help others.

Where else would we have such an easy task of providing for those less fortunate than we are? All you have to do is 2 clicks. The first to take you to the web site, and the second to provide 1 box of Kraft Macaroni to someone who needs it.

Click on the Kraft URL NOW. BEFORE you go read one more blog...CLICK THE WEB SITE RIGHT NOW!!!

Kraft's goal is to give away 1,000,000 free boxes of macaroni to people in need. They can't give it away if we don't click.There are so MANY hungry people in this country. Clicking ONE time a day is NOT more than you can do. Nor is it more than you should do.

In ONE day, the clicks provided 1,615 FREE boxes of Kraft Macaroni. We are still WELL short of the 1 Million goal. We are at 760,437. Add your click to the total and contribute to that 1 Million boxes.

~~Now that was easy, wasn't it? Enjoy your Thursday, especially since YOU are fortunate enough to have a roof over your head...food in your tummy...family...friends. Count your blessings! Life is good!!!

Monday funny…

Out bicycling one day with my eight-year-old granddaughter, Carolyn, I got a little wistful.  'In ten years,' I said, 'you'll want to be with your friends and you won't go walking, biking, and swimming with me like you do now.’

Carolyn shrugged.  'In ten years you'll be too old to do all those things anyway.'

~~~Now why does this remind me of something Miss M might say?!!!  I hope you find something to smile about on this Monday…I just did.

Life’s simple pleasures…

Roasting marshmallows outdoors.  Remember when?  That is a fond childhood memory of mine.  Doodlebug had fun last night learning the tradition down at the fire pit by the lake.  He is also learning about safety and the dangers around fires.

We’re going back for another session tonight, and adding just a few more kids to the mix…and some hot dogs and some baked beans.  Come join us!  The weather has cooled off and the fire will be hot.  Happy Sunday, y’all!

Thursday things...

Yes, I have been quiet on the blogging front this week, not because I WANTED to, but because I have been busy doing this and that. Nothing actually exciting in the fun sense...just paperwork, meetings...the normal *stuff* of every day life and living.

But one nice thing has finally happened. Amy arrived Monday morning and Wednesday morning to begin training to be my paperwork fairy, so that made me think of this pretty gal to look at as I type......and tell you how happy I am to have my trainee, who will be back Friday morning for another session. She brings along her sidekick, Scooter, who is walking...and gets into everything. It's a good thing he's cute!

Amy is learning the billing and reporting end of the RV park, and all the ins and outs of what it takes to run the park office (right here, at our house...next door to HER house). Somebody's gotta eventually take over my job, and she drew the short straw! She'll be great...she's quick.

Dick fires up the moho tomorrow to take over to the park. The real park, where he is going to be manager for three weeks (scary thought) while our 'real' managers take a trip and go have some fun. He'll take his computer with him, so that will keep him occupied. He'll spend time at the pavilion talking with our great camper folks...and doing whatever chores that need doing. Over there. He'll be fine. I think he can handle that job. He's experienced! But it will be lonely without him sitting at his desk across from me. I think I can handle that! I have my own chores to do.

So that is life here at the old fun factory. Oh yes, our brand new Walmart opened yesterday, forever changing life here in Mayberry. We are entering the 21st century...well, we will when there are beer and wine sales going on, but that is another story! Life is good...

Wordless Wednesday...me!

Check out this big boy!

Meet Gigantosaurus, the world's largest meat-eating dinosaur! That is one BIG boy!!!

This guy and a smaller one next to him are on exhibit at Fernbank Museum in Atlanta. Personally, I wouldn't want to run into either of these two on the actual hoof. They are pretty awesome as they stand here in the lobby, totally non-threating in their stillness.

Our grandkids sure enjoyed visiting here. The bubble-blowing area was a definite highlight. Dino-Mite time all around.

The dinosaur special exhibit ends on August 22, so hurry up and go check it out if you are in the Atlanta area.
