Here is a great Christmas poem written by Yvette (Judi Rolley White's "little sister").  It is very well done and expresses so many good thoughts that I'm posting it even though I haven't talked to Judi/Yvette to get permission!!  I could never do something like this!!  Very well done, Yvette!!




     I found many items while shopping the mall,
        but what I most wanted was nowhere at all.
  
        I passed by the games & remote-controlled
        cars, cell phones & ipods, electric guitars.
  
        I searched for a creche, but I didn't find one.
        I asked for help and was told there are none.
  
        They've played Christmas music since last Halloween,
        while real live carolers aren't to be seen.
  
        The thing that I want can't be packaged & sold,
        it's the spirit of Christmas, the spirit of old.
  
        It's family & friends, and it's doing for others,
        it's treating ALL people like sisters & brothers.
  
        It's finding the beauty of new fallen snow,
        when sun strikes the surface & snow diamonds glow.
  
        It's looking at starlight that fills the night skies,
        it's momma cow calling her calf who replies.
  
        Inside my own self is the best place to start,
        my search for the spirit that lives in my heart.
  
        It's Christmas, it's Christmas out here on the range.
        May peace and love spread to the world and bring change.
  
 


        Merry Christmas!!

 

To all my friends and classmates - may you all have a very ...

Merry Christmas!!!

I am happy to report that Classmate Joyce Amon Michaels is out of the hospital and doing very well in her recovery therapy at home!!  Joyce reported that it all started with a sore throat, followed by a severe headache!  That's when she went to the hospital.  According to some research I did on line - Joyce did EXACTLY what is recommended for these symptoms.  There was also a warning not to delay things by trying to treat this yourself.  Things could get serious if you delay treatment.  We're happy that Joyce took the right path and is now on her way to a speedy recovery!!

Joyce was also thrilled with her get well cards!  I can personally attest to how caring our classmates are when you're ailing!!

Thanks Cousin Judi Rolley White for this update and Joyce Moody Fletcher for the initial notice!!
