    SLOTH alert!! I'm off to take a class in line-dancing aerobics. Honestly. Meet me at the cabana afterwards and we'll have a good laugh.

    good morning beachies!

    Faith, could you send me just a "little" of your energy!Wink

    Congratulations on the magazine article. Let us know which one. I'd love to

    have a copy. I already have a copy of the famous "checkum's" book :)  I will be able

    to say that I know lots of "important" people :) Would like a signed copy, pleeeeze!

    Sharon, you sure do get up early, huh? How's the weather today?

    OK: Coonie, sending you a just a "little" bit of energy.

    and prayers for Checkum.

    The linedance aerobics was awesome. I was pretty comical, but managed to kinda, sorta keep up mostly, a little bit...... the instructor was very gracious to intro each new step etc.

    I never fell down nor did I run into anyone -- so I'm counting it a success.

    Thank heavens the Mon class is only 50 minutes. Tomorrow is the full hour: ye gads. And they don't stop for breaks between dances either. Take no prisoners this group.

    Oh and I stayed for a stretching & flexibility class! Well half an hour of that........

    Now I must go to "work."

    I love line dancing, could do it all night with the band playing.  Haven't been on in a couple of days and have missed so much.  Am so sad about Angela, another bright shining star.  We are losing too many sisters way too fast, my heart can't catch up.

    Such beautiful pictures and happy valentines day on the beach.  Mine in the real world was pretty wonderful.  My DH got me chocolates and card.  My family came to visit and my daughter fixed me a beautiful vase of white, pink, and red roses with babys breath and a box of sugar free chocolates.

    Made it to church yesterday and we have a new music leader so the songs were different but I think he is going to work out fine.  He was a cop until he fell off of a building and evidently brokes a lot of bones in different places.

    Sahalie hope you had a wonderful valentines day, keep your shell polished incase you want to roam the beaches with me.

    Checkum, don't for get to put stuff low so you can get it without reaching up high and also instead of buying big things like a gallon of milk buy the little one so you can life it.  Listen to momma Sherry, I want things going smoothly for you.  The library still hasn't been able to get your book, don't know what the problem is.

    Jaz, I have got the knitting fever.  Another lesson tomorrow on how to close them off, I have 3 done but they are still on the needle because I don't know how to finish them. LOL

    HI and Hugs to all and have missed everyone.

    OMGooooooooooooooodnessssssssssssssssssssssssss!!

    I've just spent the last two hours working with a computer-tutor. We met last week @ the dance.

    She told me that she could help me with my power-point presentation organization/directories.

    She came to my house.

    She sat here in a calm & clear manner, understanding what I need..........

    And then she proceeded to show me how to do it over the next 100 minutes.

    I must go right this minute and see if I can do it on my own.

    Keep your fingers crossed.

    Dream: Coonie can give you all the specs on Checkum's book, if Checkum doesn't get right in to share the details. I still need to order a copy, myself.

    Checkum: it's time to put up the Amazon link again.

    Hey Dream....I hope this link works. If not, the title is "Out of the Fog" by Cindy Lou Young. A very inspiring story! I really enjoyed it. I hope checkum doesn't mind me posting this link, but I think it was posted once before on these boards. :)

    So.... tell me that God is not sending me a message .... I drove by this church today 2 times and the sign out front said Psalm 23 Verse 4.

     This is Psalm 23 V4:

    "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me."

    LUV!! So great to have you check in..... you'll be given another chance. Please post some of the amazing pics that you've found in the past. We'll luv 'em all over again! Hope that you're feeling 'better' and making progress -- in the expansion-world. Miss you. I'm in FL right now!! Till we fly back to OH this weekend.

    Checkum. Glad to hear that your numbers are where they need to be -- in order for things to proceed as per the plan. Praying that everything goes completely uneventfully and that the mending can commence immediately.

    OOOOOOOOOOOOOH. And I finally read the Amazon 'reviews' of your book. How did I have the idea that your book was about your BC journey????? Duh. More swiss cheese for brains.

    Julz & Spar. So glad to see you both beach-side. We miss you when 'real life' interferes with having sufficient beach time.

    Thank goodness we have Sharon & Coonie to keep things organized, moving and filled with fun.

    Footie. Sending you a big hug, some lemonade and someone hunky to pour it for you.

    Mary Lou. Get thyself back here and relax with us.  

    Sending hugs to all our other Beachies: JazzieOne, Lisa, Dream, and all A to Z.
