Surprise Birthday Party!

On my way to Hereford, AZ, I stopped in Casa Grande to have lunch with Lori, Haley, and Amy. To my surprise they surprised me with a birthday party! They had cupcakes, presents, a birthday crown, and even sang to me. I was really surprised!

The Crab Shack

Jennifer has been bragging about the Crab Shack in Laughlin, NV, so much that I have been dieing to go there to eat. So since I broke my arm and Scott and Jennifer were going to take care of me for a week, I finally got my chance to go to the Crab Shack and feast on the seafood platter. YUMMY!

The Circus

This summer the circus came to town. I went with my friends. Jennifer had never been to the circus so Scott took her. They had lots of fun!




Scott found his "twin"!!!

Jennifer really wants this red hair!
Next year when the circus comes to town, we should all go!

One more time bah=humbug

I wrote twice yesterday and each time I don't know what happoened to it. I am very frustrated and don't think all this nonsense is worth it. No one I doubt reads it anyway as its boring to most everyone but me. If I could figure out a way to delete it, I would.

Today was a good day. I got the lula quilt sewed over the weekend at home and went to the center today and got the backing and batting done. Needs tieing and that hopefully will happen tomorrow. I also got most of the squares vut for the July 4th quilt and should be able to lay it out tomorrow. I had some great help today from 2 people who know what they are doing and do it well.

Thursday I'll only be there half of day if that. I have to get to the bank, have lunch I think with Shirley at a Chinese restartant and then over to JC Lincoln for a class on excercise for people who have problems breathing. Then on to a doctor for a hearing test. Then home and finish packing for my trip to kingman. Thats all Folks!!!!!

armed forces quilt

Sorry I have 2 pictures of the quilt but they are not in the computer and I don't know how to scan. I haven't had time to venture into that area. The quilt was won today by a woman who seems to win most of the quilts they raffle off. They made $105 bucks on it. I now have one quilt I brought home to finish tieing and it is sold. This woman also brought 2 baby quilts.

We had an armed forces day at the center. It was a support your troops tribute. We had 4 marines there and they told a little story of what their duties are in the marines. 2 of them have been in Iraq. Then each branch was called up one branch at a time to stand behind these men as a symbol of support. Of course I was there for the Navy. By the way have Haley put on the blog this memorial that my church is doing to honor deceased service men on May 25. I have a copy of it but she knows how to put it on the blog and once again its scanning. If anyone wants their own copy just let me know.

All afternoon I played bingo. It was bingo party day. I paid for the first 2 hours and the next 2 hours were free with pizza and pop. I really worked hard all day as you can see. Needless to day I'm not having any dinner tonight. I started the day off with biscuits and gravy. Lunch was pork chop and rice and then the pizza and cake. Lunch was cupcakes all decorated with red,white, blue stuff and then it was someones birthday so we had another cake. Life is so hard. ha ha

Tomorrow a group of us are going to Scottsdale to see Cathism 3. It is hilarious. I know I have the spelling wrong. Its a play of how the nuns used to be many years ago.

The doctor moved my stress test up and I went yesterday for it. Will be another week til I get the results. Trying to find out why I get so out of breathe so easy. First they take a picture of heart when I first get there and inject something into the IV. Then they take nuclear pictures of the heart at rest Then the stress test. This is the rough part. I don't know if I could have gone much longer onthatthing. I was so out of breather and my arms and legs so very tired. Now back to that nuclear test again with the heart being stressed. The last 3 days I have felt pretty good. I have atrial fibrillation.

Oh my gosh I got this far by myself. Now what do I do. I might write a big thing and than you never see it cause I have done something stupid and it all went away. But here goes anyway.

Its been a week of doctors, dentist, chiropracter, check x-ray for the doctor on Monday. (Pulmondosit). i have some heart tests coming up end of month. I stil don;'t feel all that great. When my pulse goes up high enough, I usually feel really rotten and lightheaded. My heart keeps skipping beats. Oh well that's life.

Yes Scott is special and thinks of the neatest things to do. But then all my kids are special in there own ways. That whole bus know my son was out there waving and holding a sign (Love You). I still hear about it from some of the people on the bus. They all thought it was pretty neat too.

I have my armed forces quilt done at last. Thought it would never get done with me being in the hop ital and all but i had some help. Now I have another one laid out and looks like it might be sold and I'm no where near done. But the special project I was going to work on using photographs isn't going so well. I put water on the picture and it faded away. So Barbara at the center has to do some research this weekend. This was all her idea anyway.

Now that i have bored you enough I'll close here and go to bed.

Laughlin

Had a great trip to Laughlin last Sunday. Scott and Jennifer were on the side of the road by I-40 holding up a sign saying Love you. The bus driver honked his horn. They met us at AVi a short time later and we had dinner together before Scott left to go back to Kingman. On Monday I won $50- at bingo. Day after, Tuesday I went to the horse races at Turf Paradise and won $20 on a horse and Wednesday I went to see a Diamondback game. We won 10=-0 {Played the cubs.
