RETIRED: Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

Kinda reminds me of that too. I got 1 bag of halls, and no shirt so far seems the easy ones I can't win but I have 52 bags of oatmeal coming my way

Hi all haven't been around middle daughters in law family have had bad things happen some have met here daughter slkane her husbands brothers daughter their 18 month old niece was diagnosed with cancer to weeks ago had tubes put in her brain but she passed last night. pray for this poor baby if you will.

Prayers abound. Such sorrow. Am sure heaven is better now though.

Actually, it's not awesome of me. I wouldn't do it if I didn't enjoy it. But the funniest part of his whole thing is how shocked new employees and clients are when they find out I'm not Jewish.

At least 50% of our clients are Holocaust survivors and the majority of our other clients are Jewish. I mean, the Center is in the largest Jewish area in Los Angeles, so that's to be expected. Most of the social workers in the building are also Jewish because they speak Yiddish and Russian and Polish, etc. Even after two years volunteering there, I'll still meet clients who ask if my parents were survivors or which temple I belong to, those sorts of questions. I just tell them up front that I'm not Jewish and they're shocked. They see me at the Center 5 days a week, 6 hours a day, and it makes no sense to them.

But they're funny about it and decide that if I want to be the craft lady and the popcorn lady (which I make for the days we show movies) and the computer lady (because I help out in the lab) and the flyer and calendar lady (I do the graphics for special events and the monthly calendar of events) and whatever else they know me for, then hey, that's fine with them. They just don't understand it.

I just do it because I enjoy it, I love the people I "work" with, and I get to do all sorts of different things. Plus, and this is important to my sister, it keeps me off the streets and out of trouble.

I still have 10 pages to catch up on - specially to read postings by Shesays - but just wanted to pop in for a minute to say my hubby's belt buckle arrived today! YAY! Hope everybody's havin a good evening. Am gonna take advantage of the evening SUNSHINE and rake the back yard. See ya'll later. to all.

Well, you wonderful (if strange) people, I have to leave you all now. I've been postponning my life for the last three days of this week, so will now go do some necessary work. It's been a pleasure, as usual, and I'll "talk" to you all later.

Oh God, Jules I'm soooo sorry to hear that. What a tragedy. She will be in my prayers tonight, but we allready know she is up in heaven. I'll pray for the family.

here.. use this one.. shhhh dont tell him it was me

A Mans Work Is Never Done!
