HAPPY WEDNESDAY!

Over the Hump Day ! For the past 2 days I’ve had the office to myself. Today my boss should be in and it’s payroll day. Maybe I’ll actually get to work only an 8 hour day. I shouldn’t complain because the extra hours mean more in the paycheck.

They said my mom made it through the biopsy procedure just fine. She has been sleeping a lot the past few days and is very weak. I was out there after work and she wasn’t awake very long at all. We won’t find out the results for a day or two. I’m so very thankful for my sister caring for both my mom and dad – she’s so very appreciated.

Take good care all ! Have a great day !

Another wonderful one on the Way !

TODAY IS...ROLLER COASTER DAY

In 1884, LaMarcus A. Thompson built a ride at New York's Coney Island to bring people out of the local beer gardens. The tracks carried individual cars that climbed 15 feet in the air and zoomed along at 4 miles per hour. People swarmed to Coney Island to try this novelty for a nickel a ride. Today, the fastest roller coaster is the Alpengeist at Busch Gardens, Williamsburg, VA. It goes 67 mph - and it probably costs more than a nickel.
