this is jamie board, she just graduated home school a couple weeks ago, she has been internationally guillded for music. ( i know i didnt spell that right). heather probably knows how to spell it. anyway to get that she had to go in front of a judge and play 15 yes i said 15 songs by heart. no sheet music. tonight she played for an hour including short breaks she played bach, schumann, beethoven grieg, gershwin, banam, rachmaninoff. i am not good with picking out music but i did understand the song praise ye the lord, the almighty. she got 2 standing ovations tonight and i cryed each time. sooooo proud of her, she has always been so special to me. she is terries oldest daughter, kim heather and barb met terri at dads reception after dad died. she has come a long way from the abc's i learned as a piano student. congratulations jamie. i will try to put the video up.

ok, ok, i did not finish on wed, but i did finish today. feels good and looks great. had my follow up with my dr. the pills did absolutely nothing to stop my problems, she still didnt say anything of surgery but want me on lupron shots for 9 months. and will put me on estrogen for hot flashes. she looked at me like she couldnt believe i didnt let her know of the last four months. well the second time i let her now the worst one i almost passed out at work, she said what do you want me to do about it. duh i gave up after that. so tuesday i begin with the shot. OUCH. have a great weekend. katie ps the shots are 700 dollars, i paid 20. guess i have great insurance. i would have said no probably if they didnt pay.

proof of the impact, i am getting sorer by the minute. no wonder my chin hurts, i didnt know i had a red streak there too. they are shutting schools down at 1230 or 0ne all over, the wind is still real high. down my neck and under my chin. i will not be running any more. ha ha

here are the pictures of damage thus far. by the time i got to noras after the fall i had no desire to take a picture hopefully she will post.

well, it was a beuetiful day on mothers day, guess i ruined the day after for mom, the only damage i have from the storm on noras web site is at 9am smokey wanted to go out and changed her mind so i went to do something and thought a tree came down so i looked out the back and there was my chairs tipped and table moved on the back. i called mom and she said she lost a tree so i gotta get a picture, got my picture and SHOULD have turned around. but no i had to RUN anybody care to guess where this is going. lost my balance and fell on the railing around the sidewalk hitting mythroat and neck directly on the corner of the railing. yes i know SLOW DOWN SLOW DOWN. they is a big branch in the middle of the road by the curve past my house so here i am sitting straight with an ice pack and i have to go to work. better leave early with all the debres on the road. jake went back to north carolina today dont know if he will make the bridge with these winds and flooding. told him to look up if he gets scared. i will attempt some pictures if the powere doesnt go out first. these are the mothersday presents we got for mom. she loved them all. the frame i think i put on before but it says all becuase 2 people fell in love with mom and dad at the top and their six children. mom has had this dove for 3 or 4 days keeps coming back and has a band around its leg. katie

LOOK MOM ITS A CROP DUSTER, LOOK MOM ITS A HELECOPTOR, we have had a noisy dinner tonight at pattys, cropdusters flying just over the trees when we are TRYING to talk on the porch for a long time . then 1/2 hour later we sit down to eat and we hear a helecoptor hoovering for a long long time, wade called his friend that lives on zoar road is the next street over and he said they have cops walking the field. yes he have a run away a driver was trying to hide something when he was pulled over and ran away. guess they got him cuase the helecoptor left and never came back. yes come to delaware for mothers day and join in on the excitement. didnt have my camara , wish i walked to my car sooner, there were real good opertunities for the cropdusting pictures. camara was in my car. so i had it the whole time.
