and All/ Penny Power

[Guest guest]

and All,

Basically you got it. However, there may be months that a team member would

rather just report his collection and send a check every couple of months

but monthly would make bookkeeping and staying on track of goal a lot

easier. I have already had some folks say I'd rather just send a check and

not collect. That's ok. We'll take it however we can get it but collecting

pennies is probbably a lot more fun. Or some might just want to pledge a

certain amount each month. I have a feeling some teams will get there

$1000.00 early on but we will keep on going in order to help the smaller

teams or the teams I failed to get. I have no doubt we will get our

$10,000.00 by next Fling. When has these two groups ever let us down?

NEVER! So the only question now is, how much over $10,000.00 can we go?

That's up to the lists.

We will post the teams and team members after everyone has had a chance to

recruit as many members as possible. Don't forget that team members can

also recruit for their team.

And Susieq. You may give me 50 licks with a wet noodle. I was posting from

the old lists I had made up and I apologize for missing you. Sorry. Sorry.

Sorry.

See if this will help to get me back in everyone's good graces. My dad, who

will be 83 the 11th of June, was taken to the ER on Monday. He fell on

Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Home health nurse came on Monday. His BP was

low and we tried to get the family doctor. Finally gave up and called

ambulance for ER. Blood work said pneumonia and maybe a blood clot. Took

him to Winchester (40 miles). They determined he has a blood clot in his

leg, blood clots on his lungs and double pneumonia. Guess who has been

going back and forth with their mother to the hospital almost every day this

week? And guess who really isn't in any shape to be doing this?

He is looking a little better and breathing a little easier but is very

weak. I don't think he will be coming home for awhile. He just can't walk

(Parkinsons) and Mother nor I can take care of him. He may be able to go to

a rehab facility next week.

I hope this will make up for any slip ups I've made this week. I've been a

bit off my game. Sorry.

Ronnie
