Hi Girls,

Many of you know that the Granddolls have been here this week.  Soooo much fun!  However, they are safely back at home now after we met in TX today to make the "swap".  Long drive but so worth it!


Had a wonderful 4th of July in Tulsa with all of our "4 chicks" present.  My Mom chose not to come out into the heat but I saw her on Saturday and she is doing great, as is my Sister.


One of my two best friends here in LA had emergency surgery this week but is recouperating now.  Also, we have had the death of 3 area teenagers in the last 10 days.  Two of the deaths were a "Romeo/Juliet" murder/suicide and the other was from complications of an appendectomy.  Princess has been quite upset by all of this.


I plan to do "nothing" this evening then will get Princess ready to go leave for church camp on Monday.  Praying this will be a postive experience for her.  This is the first time she is going to camp w/o her best friend.  She is sort of a "loner", but praying this will go well.


I'm off to put my feet up now.
I think I have caught up with the goings on I have missed during this past week.  ((HUGS)) all!

Deb I know you have just been in heaven having those grandolls with you. I'm sure they were so sad to see the time just fly by. Glad they are safely home.

I know you had a wonderful time with the granddolls...too bad it's now back to reality.

What a shock about the 3 teens. Did Princess know them well? It's always so hard on a community when something like that happens...especially the kids.

Hope your friend is up and out of the hospital quickly.

Good luck to Princess going off to church camp. Will she be traveling far or staying locally?

Enjoy your alone time with DH.

So sad about the teens. Things like that usually hit a community hard, especially the kids. :(


Hope Princess has a great time at camp, and hope you enjoy some downtime!

Deb, I'm so glad you had such a good time with your granddolls. I knew you would. It's wonderful that your mom and sister are doing well. How very sad about the three teenagers.


I hope you had a relaxing weekend and
