Two headed calves?--not really--just two calves from two seperate mothers lying side by side and end to end across the street from our house--as curious about what I was doing in taking their picture as I was about them!

Bowled awful yesterday but guess I'm getting some sort of award for my 189 game a few weeks ago. Team lost all 4 games but only two of us made it in to bowl. Don't know where Frances was but know Mary was attending a funeral.

A reprieve! I was able to divert Millie and company to a festival in New Braunsfels before they make their way here and encouraged them to check out the area including San Antonio. That puts their visit back until next Wednesday. which means they shouldn't be here much more than a week. What a relief! This will be much more tolerable and I think I can handle it better.

Still have some remnants of the cold and so does dad but we're both doing better. Linda won't be able to walk today but we'll do a shortened version with the dogs--they love it so. Will try to get in another round of "ping pong puppy" today with Chloe. Dad let them lose in the neighborhood yesterday--knowing I wasn't around to disapprove--and they came back happy and dirty! Chloe wouldn't go outside this morning until she said hello to Dad. She really is sweet if not overly energetic.

Went to Charles and Sue's--the beauty school--and got a perm. The main problem is that it does take longer because the student has to check with the instructor as she completes each process. But I am pleased with the results and especially the bill--$22.50 as oposed to $70! The $5 tip I handed the girl was well worth it! I will go back!

Plan to work on clearing/cleaning the guest room. One thing nice about having company is that the house gets cleaned up! Dad's still putting hardware on doors and two doors still need to be hung. One will get hung tomorrow and the other may have to wait awhile.

Wondering how Jordan's house guest is liking America and especially Halloween?!

Peace!
Carol
