Oh Baby! It's 1970 again!

You know you're a child of the 70's if...

• You wore that rainbow shirt that was half-sleeves, and the rainbow went up one sleeve, across your chest, and down the other.

• You made baby chocolate cakes in your Easy Bake Oven. You washed them down with snow cones from your Snoopy Snow Cone Machine.

• You owned a bicycle with a banana seat and a basket. You even owned roller skates with metal wheels.

• You thought Gopher from Love Boat was cute.

• You had either a "bowl cut" or a "pixie", not to mention the "Dorothy Hamill" because your mom was sick of braiding your hair.

• You wore a poncho, gauchos, and knickers.

• You begged Santa for the electronic game, Simon.

• You had the Donnie and Marie dolls with those pink and purple shredded outfits.

• You had homemade ribbon barrettes in every imaginable color.

• You even had a pair of Doctor Scholl's sandals (the ones with hard sole & the buckle).

• You wanted to be Laura Ingalls Wilder really bad; you wore that Little House on the Prairie-inspired plaid, ruffle shirt with the high neck in at least one school picture; and you despised Nellie Olson!

• Your hairstyle was described as having "wings" and you kept it "pretty" with the comb you kept in your back pocket.

• You and Your girlfriends would fight over which of the Dukes of Hazzard was your boyfriend.

• Every now and then "It's A Hard Knock Life" from the movie, "Annie" will pop into Your brain and you can't stop singing it the whole day.

• You had Star Wars action figures and you made Shrinky-Dinks too!

• You even asked Your Magic-8 Ball the question: "Who will I marry...David Cassidy, Bobby Sherman, or Rick Springfield?"

• You completely wore out your Partridge Family, The Monkees, and Carole King albums.

• You used to tape record songs off the radio by holding your portable tape recorder up to the speaker.

• You thought Olivia Newton John's song, "Physical" was about aerobics.

• You wanted to be a Solid Gold dancer.

• You had subscriptions to Dynamite and TigerBeat.

February Service Project

Just a reminder - Don't forget to bring 2 dozen cookies for the Red Cross Thursday night. I made my famous (?) cream cheese spritzes with pink and green sugars. Spring is on it's way! Don't you just love this weather? Anyway, we'll be meeting at Elaine's home about 7:00 p.m.

I'll see all of you soon!

Time

Time can be an enemy, yet sometimes be a friend.

There is a time that we all grow, and then a time we mend.

Time that seems to make us late, can sometimes make us cry.

There is a time we call our life, and then the time we die.

Time is used to measure days, we spend here on this Earth.

It helps divide the times in life, and re-calls all from birth.

It is a constant from this world, and then it fades away.

Taking all within its grasp, and making a new day.

Time it seems can measure space, and all ones distant travels.

It rushes us throughout our lives, and then delays arrival.

There's always time for disappointment, and appointed time.

But time that's somehow wasted, seems such an awful crime.

Time can not be bottled, nor packaged in a bag.

But when it's managed wisely, time seems not to lag.

This timely realization, sometimes is not remembered.

Events that seem so timely, though cherished may be squandered.

And now you have, your space in time, for all that it is worth.

To you it seems, a grand old time, your life upon the Earth.

But you will see, that time flys by, and empties your lifes cup.

So make it count, this thing called time, before it's all used up.

"The New Queen"

I would like to present to you the new

Preceptor Mu Tau Queen "Carole Batterton".

Faye crowned our new queen just before our dinners came and as you can see Carole was quite surprised!!

The evening was a lot of fun with GOOD company and LOTS of laughs!!!

But our meals were a different story. It was VERY dissappointing. Almost everyone's dinners were barley warm, the bake poataoes weren't even hot enough to melt butter and weren't all the way done. Del, Russ and Kim all got Prime Rib steaks, the waitress gave Russ and Del the wrong steaks at first, then she ended up giving Kim & Russ the wrong steaks. She ordered the 8oz. and was given Russ's 12oz. and it wasn't noticed until it was too late.

We politely complained to the waitress, no management personnell came out to talk with us, nor was anything adjusted on our bill except for changing the charge on Kim's ticket to the larger steak. The waitress even asked Russ if he wanted her to get him the other 4oz's of meat that he didn't get. Can you believe that?

So for those who were not able to attend, you only missed out on the good company and lots of laughs and be thankful that you missed the meal. The coffee was good though!!Ha. Ha.

Until next time;

My New Look

Yhoo Sisters... What's up? Some of you may not know but I am VERY particular about my hair. I have talked a blue streak about getting a different hair style, but when ever I would get to the salon I would chicken out every time and come home with the same simple trim up. Well I finally did it. I finally got some guts and got a new hair CUT. Ha. I got about 3-4 inches cut off and put some layer in to help it have more body and fullness. I LOVE It!! I has been very easy to style in the AM when I am running late for work. Ha. (had to put that in there). The pictures aren't that greatest, but I took them myself with my phone camera. Just wanted to share my new look.

See you at the meeting.
