We're ok. No hurricane this week for us, but maybe Jeanne will hit close to home this weekend. We lost our electricity for a couple of days with Frances and lost our only tree, but we lived through it.

How is Texas?

I'll get Tim to scan them in so you can see them as I work.

Hi SpookBrat! This lady is doing fine, thanks. Had some dreaded dental work done this morning and feel on top of the world now....because it is over!!! Yippee!!

Please ping me to the images of your elephants when you post them, I would love to see them.

Glad to hear that you have been relatively unscathed by the hurricanes.

DH said he would scan them in tonight. We'll see. I'm so excited about it. I have been looking on the internet for Republican fabric but haven't found any yet, so I'm sticking with patriotic type colors. If you guys see any let me know.

Lori, hope you're feeling better. Nice to know you're taking care of your pretty smile. LOL (You reminded me to call for my daughter tomorrow). Did you know the barber used to do all the local dental work? I just learned that.

Hi everybody. Good to see ya, Spooky! Long time no see.

I'm working on an elephant applique quilt.

That's an excellent idea. It must be a lot work, but a lot fun as well. Hope seeing you around a bit more. I miss the fun we used to have in the old days, hehe. :-)

Gosh, now that I think about it, I think I remember seeing it too. But I can't tell if my mind is playing tricks on me because you initiated the memory. Know what I mean?

Never looked at it this way before . . . .

A guy took his blonde girlfriend to her first football game. They had great seats right behind their team’s bench.

After the game, he asked her how she liked the experience. “Oh, I really liked it,” she replied. “Especially the tight pants and all the big muscles, but I just couldn’t understand why they were killing each other for 25 cents.”

Dumbfounded, her date asked, “What do you mean?”

“Well, I saw them flip a coin and one team got it and then for the rest of the game, all they kept screaming was: ‘Get the quarterback! Get the quarterback!’ Hel-LLLO . . . it’s only 25 cents! I hate to think what they’d do if it was a whole DOLLAR?”

The Last Rose Of Summer
by Thomas Moore (Arr. Frank Gallagher)

Tis the last rose of summer,
Left blooming alone,
All her lovely companions
Are faded and gone.
No flow'r of her kindred
No rosebud is nigh
To reflect back her blushes,
Or give sigh for sigh.

I'll not leave thee, thou lone one,
To pine on the stern,
Since the lovely are sleeping,
Go, sleep thou with them

Thus kindly I'll scatter
Thy leaves o'er the bed,
Where thy mates of the garden
Lie scentless and dead.

So soon may I follow
When friendships decay;
And from love's shining circle
The gems drop away
When true hearts lie wither'd
And fond ones are flow'n
Oh! Who would inhabit
This bleak world alone?



lyrics and midi submitted by MamaBear.
