Miserable 4th


I hope your 4th turned out to be fun. Mine turned out less than great. I ended up getting the flu and could not leave the house. Talk about miserable. I am still not well today. I am not throwing up anymore but I am still under the weather. I had to stay home from the temple today and may have to do so tomorrow. So you can be glad that you didn't come up. You were safer there in the heat.

May I have Bree's cell phone number? Dad has tried to call David's number three times now. He has left messages to be called back but I guess that David has been too busy to call. We would just like to talk to them.

Love, M

Truth????? Or my fiction???????‏

I can add to the made up part. What do you all think of the following? Notice they all have something to do with disappearing. That is because--guess?

"Shawn and Kimberly went on a trek and they are still dusty. In fact, they were last seen in a cloud of dust disappearing from view."

"Melanie and Howard have opened Hotel Bolton. The pair disappeared after learning, with joy, that the enterprise was so successful."

"Todd is still out riding his bike and Amy G. is herding kids about Utah and is flying from spot to spot so quickly that she has disappeared from view."

"Eric and Amy are trapped behind drywall in their basement. Though they cannot be seen, their feeble cries can be heard from behind the walls."

"AnnMarie and Brandon have started a cafe in their kitchen. They were caught up in a whirlwind of success and disappeared from view."

"Julie and Jim have gone with the bees (not the wind) and were last seen near a vat of honey."

"Kirsten has three feet. She grew the last one while touring in Boston visiting Melanie. She is so concerned that she has taken her family and disappeared."

"David and Bree moved out of state and, once they got to Missouri, they ended up being so busy and rushing about so much that they have melted in the humidity and disappeared."

You know, truth with a twist.

I'll bet I could come up with some good stuff--even better than this. (I do not lie--I just rewrite history.) Want to prevent all this baloney?
WRITE!!!!!

Love, M

Do you have Bree's cell phone number? Will she care if you give it to me? Dad has tried to call David's number three times now. He has left messages to be called back but David has not called. We did not plan on losing contact with them.

Love, M

I have a very quiet 4th. I worked, but just long enough to get done what had to be done. Then I went home. It is nice to have a home that is mine again. I had forgotten how nice that is. 

Love you, B

It is once again that time--NEWSLETTER!


You are all about your activities. Do you mind sharing them with the rest of us or should I just make something up?

Like: "Kirsten has three feet. She grew the last one in Boston visiting Melanie." Or, "Todd is still out riding his bike and Amy G. is hearding kids about Utah and is flying from spot to spot." Or, "David and Bree moved out of state and they got to Missouri but they ended up being so busy that they have melted in the humidity and disappeared." "Shawn and Kimberly went on a treak and they are still dusty." "AnnMarie and Brandon have started a cafe in their kitchen." "Eric and Amy are trapped behind drywall in their basement." "Julie and Jim have gone with the bees (not the wind)." "Melanie and Howard have opened Hotel Bolton." You know, truth with a twist. 

I'll bet I could come up with some good stuff. (I do not lie--I just rewrite history.)
