HEALTH UPDATE and PRAYER REQUEST:

  From My Friend,  Judy Bundy Bowermaster (Litchfield HS, IL - '59) of IL - 10/06/09, 8:13 AM - "wrist":

Hi all,

Saw the therapist Monday and told her I wasn't coming back. I don't like her much anyway. She was more interested in what she did last weekend and what she was going to do next weekend than in what was going on with my hand! I have ALL the range of motion back and the wrist is healed. I don't have all the strength back yet but an hour 3 times a week isn't going to get it back any faster. Now it's all on me to do that. I can crochet again; in fact, a did a baby afghan for Savannah (Erin's baby) over the week end. 3 skeins of yarn. Yea for me. I can finally sweep the kitchen floor again and push the vacuum, so I think I'm doing well. Oh, and I made new curtains for the kitchen and hung the small window myself. Had to have help getting the big one up, but it's done. Next on the list is driving again. Since it rained today I think I'm NOT trying it today but look out when it dries up.

Thanks for all your prayers and support.

Judy

   COOL BEANS! You rock, Judy! Thanks for the update!

NEWBIES:

1.   The Queen of the Class of 1964, Judy Mawyer of NC - 10/05/09 - "mailing list":

Hey Carol:

I have been just fascinated by your website!

I am Judy Mawyer, Class of '64, and would like to be added to your mailing list.  Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend our class reunion and will miss seeing everyone.

I have just read the "In Memoriam" page (for the Class of 1964) and am so saddened by our losses.  I was raised in the Briarfield section of Newport News and can remember going home with  Becky May after school and playing.  She was such a sweet, sweet person.  And    Edna Johnson (Matthews),  Kathy Agee (Glenny), wonderful    Melba (Dees Wood Graveley). I remember crying on Gerald Wright's shoulder with boyfriend problems and dating  Darrell Boland. And so many more from our class.. it's all so sad and such a loss.

I live in the small community of Henrico on Lake Gaston in North Carolina (the Virginia line is just around the corner).

Keep up the good work.

Judy

   Welcome aboard, Judy! I've added your name to my mailing list, and to these pages for your class:

See who you'll see - http://www.nnhs65.00freehost.com/reunion2009-64-ATTENDING.html

    From Joe Madagan ('57) of FL - 10/05/08 - "Racing on I-64":

   I'm very sorry to hear this! I've frequently had difficulty convincing people to let me add them (or their relatives) to all of those Famous Military pages. I think it's because they are confusing "Famous" with "Noteworthy", and their innate humility restrains them. Perhaps if you share with him the intent of those pages, you may be able to convince him to change his mind yet. The very fact that he attended NNHS and wore the uniform more than qualifies him to be listed thereon:

This list is comprised of people whose main fame comes from their life OUTSIDE their military service,
and should not be confused with "Noteworthy Marines", although the two are not mutually exclusive.

   Thanks again, Joe!

  From My #2 Daughter-in-Law, Bethany Winona Harty (Siuslaw HS, OR - '94) of TX - 10/04/09 - "Good Things":

		... We turned on (the Saturday morning session of The 179th Semiannual General) Conference (of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) at 10am, and     Eme and I listened and designed her Baptism invitations at the same time. I think it turned out SO cute!        Brent (Harty - Hillsboro HS, IL - '90) of TX) wasn't crazy about the flower on her ear, but it's really the only thing she REALLY wanted. And, after all, it's her invitation, right? Still, I think it's adorable! I used Irene Alexeeva's Thumbelina kit for it. Fabulous!

   I think they're beautiful - and I really like the flower in her hair! You and Eme did a great job, Sweet Bethany! Thanks for sharing this! And I'm almost finished crochenitting the entire bodice for her white baptismal dress, too!  I should be able to finish it tonight!

  From Ivan Anker ('67) of VA - "God Created Virginia":

God was missing for six days. Eventually, Michael, the archangel, found him, resting on the seventh day..

He inquired, "Where have you been?"

God smiled deeply and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds, "Look, Michael. Look what I've made."

Archangel Michael looked puzzled, and said, "What is it?"

"It's a planet," replied God, and I've put life on it.. I'm going to call it Earth and it's going to be a place to test Balance."

"Balance?" inquired Michael, "I'm still confused."

God explained, pointing to different parts of Earth. "For example, northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth, while southern Europe is going to be poor. Over here I've placed a continent of white people, and over there is a continent of black people. Balance in all things."

God continued pointing to different countries. "This one will be extremely hot, while this one will be very cold and covered in ice."

The Archangel , impressed by God's work, then pointed to a land area and said, "What's that one?"

"That's the Commonwealth of Virginia , the most glorious place on earth. There are beautiful mountains, rivers and streams, lakes, forests, hills, and plains. The people from the Commonwealth of Virginia are going to be handsome, modest, intelligent, and humorous, and they are going to travel the world. They will be extremely sociable, hardworking, high achieving, carriers of peace, and producers of good things."

Michael gasped in wonder and admiration, but then asked, "But what about balance, God? You said there would be balance..."

God smiled, "Right next to Virginia is Washington DC. Wait till you see the idiots I put there."

   Thanks, Ivan!

"To be a Virginian, either by birth, marriage, adoption, or even on one's mother's side, is an introduction to any state in the Union, a passport to any foreign country, and a benediction from the Almighty God."

ABBREVIATED ALERTS:

2.        From Dave Spriggs ('64) of VA - 07/02/09 - "NNHS 64/45 REUNION PAGE UPDATES":

From ArcaMax Jokes - 10/05/09:

Good Treatment

Bob went over to his friend Joe's house and was amazed at how well Joe treated his wife. He often told her how attractive she was, complimented her on her cooking and showered her with hugs and kisses.

"Gee," Bob remarked later, "you really make a big fuss over your wife."

"I started to appreciate her more about six months ago," Joe said. "It has revived our marriage and we couldn't be happier."

Inspired, Bob hurried home, hugged his wife and told her how much he loved her and said he wanted to hear all about her day. But she burst into tears. "Honey," Bob said, "what's the matter?"

"This has been the worst day," she replied. "This morning Billy fell off his bike and broke his ankle, then the washing machine broke. Now to top it off, you come home drunk!"

*************

Pregnant

Seven months pregnant, my hand on my aching back, I stood in line at the post office for what seemed an eternity.

"Honey," said a woman behind me, "I had back pain during my pregnancy. I was bedridden for four months because my baby was sitting on a nerve."

Then the man in front of me piped up....

"You'd better get used to it now. Once those kids get on your nerves, they can stay there till they're 18."

I'll Still Be Loving You

(Restless Heart)
 

Changing my life with your love has been so easy for you.
And I'm amazed every day and I'll need you
Till all the mountains are valleys
And every ocean is dry, my love...

CHORUS:

I'll be yours until the sun doesn't shine
Till time stands still, until the winds don't blow.
When today is just a mem'ry to me, I know
I'll still be lovin', I'll still be lovin' you.

I'll still be lovin' you

Never before did I know how loving someone could be
Now I can see you and me for a lifetime
Until the last moon is rising
You'll see the love in my eyes, my love...

CHORUS

I'll still be lovin',
I'll still be lovin',
I'll still be lovin' you.
