We had a good time last night with family. Adrienne once
again will be a docent at the Science Museum. I asked her
why she didn't do the zoo instead. She replied, "Are You
Kidding, Grandma. Those kids have to work hard."

Ted has a giant wooden airplane lying on the guest bed. I
am not happy about this.

I went shopping this morning and was going to purchase a
few little things when I saw a fabulous full length mirror
on a wrought iron stand. Our old one was shedding gold
leaf so I bought the new one and will donate the old one
to Habitat for Humanity. That is all I bought except for
a white quilted jacket.

Our air went out last night but it is not too bad because
we have two units. The repair person said he would be
at our house Wed. morning.

We talked last night about a storm shelter. Both Bobby and
I want one and I am wondering if under the garage floor
might be the best option, the public shelters get so full.
It would be nice to have a place for important papers and
a change of clothing in case of an emergency. I will
wait until the furor dies down to think more about it.

A couple in Piedmont lost three of their children and they
have one in the hospital. One of the children was sucked
from his mother's arms. They found him nearly two miles
from home. He didn't survive. Joplin was hit so hard, even
worse than our May 3d storm.

Mother Nature is on the war path.

Did you see Sara Palin on the back of that motorcycle? How
Presidential!! I thought President Obama was warm and
comforting with the people of Joplin when he toured the
damage.
