This past Saturday-Seven Zingers went to afternoon tea at Gracefully Yours Tea Room in Vine Grove Ky--I would reccomend this tea room to anyone in the area--You can try as many different teas as you want and the hostess serves a plentiful delicious tea--I was so full I skipped my supper-her husband --the host is charming and helpful and the tea room has lovely decorations and a nice shop where you can buy the various teas-plus many other lovely items. A good time was had by all.

I have started Debbie Macombers latest book-8 Sandpiper Way- and I am enjoying it--Going to Fla for a week tomorrow and have several new books to take along--Hope to get to the beach this trip!!

   Well we have worked out a schedule for a busy fall. Hope it works! This Saturday-we'll go to Afternoon Tea at Gracefully Yours Tea Room in Vine Grove. They do a lovely tea and the people who run it are very nice. They place a Bible Verse at each place setting which is very nice.

   In October we'll go to the St James Art Fair on 10/4-

 November has a play and another tea tentatively planned. Deb is going to have her annual Christmas Cookie and Red Hat Gift Exchange and we will also go to The Woman's Club and Heritage Council's Tea-all this in December.

  We are also trying to go to lunch at least one time a week-sometimes two. This is hard to keep  up with-but I try. Jan and I started this chapter together and since she moved to Virginia I have tried to keep it going. Deb and Diane have been alot of help-but I have alot going on. I think of myself as a ViceQueen or Queen's Assistant rather than a Queen. Chatting on the phone has never been my thing--Emailing is fine but frequently I am not sure if people even rec'd them. Well I'll try to post a picture of Jan and I here.

Well that was an exciting experience--first had to go down to my ex-dil's job to pick up their insurance card--just happy they have insurance again--she wasn't there-so I waited till she came over from the courthouse--she works for the state--then back to the school to pick up Adrian--then to the pediatricians and a long wait--Adrian being a typical 5 yo--kept saying "where's the doctor?" not that I stopped him-me being a typical little old lady--he had to have a fingerstick lab-give urine and 4 shots and flu mist--I think he was a real trooper--though I'm pretty sure is mother could hear him scream-3 miles away when he got the shots--afterwards we went to Mickey D's where he got a Happy Meal with Yoda and I got an iced Mocha-pretty good--By the time I got home=I made blt's for dh and myself and collapsed in front of the TV-

Well I'm trying to work on my profile style today--found this picture I had taken at a French Lick Convention a few years ago-thought 'd use it for awhile--been sraightening up my hats, crafts etc--just can't figure out how I got so many red hats-

Andy, my son called earlier-he wants me to take his son age 5 to pediatrician tomorrow for his immunizations--that should be a trip.

Still no rain here--very unusual--I guess I'll water after supper-take care-cc

Well I've spent much of today watching the weather channel-A side effect of Fay was a tornado in Barefoot Bay--home of many Red Hatters and my mil's home--now ours is adjacent to it--I have checked alot of sites and I don't think we rec'd alot of damage--I've tried to call several neighbors but no responce--South Brevard is being declared a disaster area by the Fla govenor--Luckily my son's birth father lives in Melbourne and said he will try to check on the house--I have been really looking forward to spending time there--keep us in your prayers--we are lucky we are safe here in Ky and I haven't heard of any major injuries and I hope it stays that way.
