Subject: RE: BS: Open Mike has lost her home and contents
well, i do want to sent giant hugs and thanks to all my mudcatter friends. i got a great check today from Rapaire and plan to use this
to replace a big thing.....my sound system, amp. for gigs,,,and mike stands...also there will be another gift coming from big Mick and that will help to replace my sound syst3em....c.d player, speakers, etc.
it seems only fitting that my music friends should provide musical
help!! as for the little things--the community here has been SO, SO
generous-there is a huge free store where donations have come pouring in.

i do happen to think occasionally of my cook books, and music books, and i had some funny drinking glasses that looked like cowboy boots and some shot glasses that looked like mini- frosty mugs....

the hardest to replace will be the 200 year old danish sour dough starter and the amish friendship bread/cake starter...although there may be some of each floating around somewhere..

perhaps when it comes to be secret santa time i will put out a plea for tree ornaments, but i willnot have room to put a tree in teh motor home anyway....alas, all life has changed, for now. I often end sentences with "for now" these days....i am bouncing between my 2
daughters' homes, most of the clothes i wear ar unfamiliar to me, and
even the cell phone i have is a recent acquisition, as i slammed mine in the car door because i was not used to the new law requiring hands free devidce and ear phones and i got out of the car and it dragged
along....strange bed, strange room, a stranger in a strange land...

one thing that remains constant is that i do my radio show each month and also will drive the bookmobile for the library...and that this mudcat family is here each time i log on! thanks for all support and
caring hearts!!
