proaching marriage of their

Memorial Day is gone and
summer is here What hap-
pened to spring? Time flies here
at Community Care listening to
Evy talk about the unusual
things she has encountered in
her 101 years of traveling and
that was back when traveling
was some chore or trying to get
Wilburn out of his room "that's
where he hides away and does
his painting" when Evelyn is on
the war path!
It's always fun to watch
Mary fluff up her easy chair
and pillows Kind of reminds
you of a chicken getting ready
to lay her eggs It has to be just
so-so And it's always fun to see
who will get to sit in the one
favorite chair by the phone
Lydia or Carl I think that
chair has gotten Carl's name
changed more than once!
Then it is always fun harass-
ing the cooks You know Brenda
always cooks biscuits when we
want pancakes or when we
want pie she always has a
cake And when Mary in the
laundry starches our undies it
sure makes for a scratchy day
When we really get bored
we drag out the dominoes but
not on bingo day Heaven help
us if we ever miss bingo Why
the whole week would be shot!
We want to thank Betty
Holland for coming and pre-
senting the video of old gospel
hits to our residents We all
enjoyed it and we're looking
forward to her coming back real
