Ya know, I have to say something about our ever present President. Cutting medicaid is probably by far, the most lowest thing he could do! This program is for retired and the disabled as well. And then post an AI generated image of himself as the pope, and apparently building a golden ballroom like his at “home” at Mar-Largo, in the White House (I don’t care whose funding it) is ridiculous! If you and your rich cronies got that kind of money to foolishly spend, do something that every single American and legal resident can use, some cheaper food prices, a little help in our wallets, purses and or piggy banks, naming a couple, not you showing off your tacky golden dream and millions to just the rich and famous!! Rant done, if I hit a raw note, sorry, save your breath. I had to risk him calling me a name and firing me, oooo, but I believe I’m not the only one who feels this way!
I got my new lawn furniture and I love it! But the coffee table has a glass top, I said to Duffy, cut a pretty board to replace the glass top. We have 6 kids, and 9 adults ?? (that’s debatable) 3 dogs and apparently some homed up ground bees. The bees got rattled and starting stinging us, little Benny first, me, then Sammy the very huge mastiff, he jumped up, backed into the table, it went flying, glass and all. Mean while, I grabbed my cane and start swinging at them, the kids were laughing pretty hard at that point. I guess I looked like the blind guy in the movie, Men In Tights swinging his sword or something and not hitting a thing. I’m not making fun of blind people, but only the character!
Gram here said to his Mommy, make a mud pack pie and put it on Benny’s knee, he gotta kick out of that, and although he didn’t get stung again, he come back for a fresh mud pie pack, tried for a third.
Nothing better than a tried and true old fashioned remedies passed down for generations! Thank you Aunt Peg!
I see Lois Russel got an A+ at her recent eye Dr appointment, every thing went well, “No change in my eye sight”, she posted. Very pleased, for as long as I’ve been on that medication, (since about 2001?) that it hasn’t affected my eyes with “build up“
That is great news Lois! Our eyesight is a must do yearly thing, or 2, kinda like those squish-o-grams!!
I have some happenings you can mark down from Margaret Hall, she sent me some for up coming happenings at the Ricard Grange. They are having a covered dish and cards on Mon. Aug. 18th at 1pm.

I send out Happy Birthday wishes and Happy Anniversary to all who are celebrating this week!
My prayers go out to those who are sick, in need of comfort on the loss of a loved one, or just could use a prayer blessing for financial help. My prayers for you all! Amen!
This is all I have this week! Enjoy the beautiful weather! God Bless!
