I painted the two boards this morning and painted the patchwork I did to the foundation. It came out pretty good. I also painted the doorknob protector plate that will go on the wall by the front door of the mobile home. It has a hole made by the doorknob lock. I patched it but the door must have hit it again and put a hole back in the patchwork. The plastic plate will take care of it. It was white and I painted it almond.

I went to the Red Hatter’s luncheon. It was nice to see the women again. Two of them are having health problems. Alease had had a stroke and has difficulty talking. Ruth has lung cancer and is going threw the treatments and problems that Ted had. I felt so sorry for both of them.

I had the corned beef and cabbage at the Red Hatter’s luncheon. Most people were decked out in their green including my black friends who wanted to honor their Irish friends. They are a terrific group of ladies. I was especially touched by how Mae took such loving care in helping Alease.

I talked to Alex and his neighbor on the other side, Louis. I’m not sure of the spelling as he is Spanish and it is pronounced Lou eese. Louis’s sister is interested in my house. I hope she calls Melissa so she can come in and look at it. I guess she wanted to see if it was in her price range.

Hi Karol,

We're having some very lovely weather right now, but heavy snow is predicted for this coming weekend. BAH!!! And, I don't believe any daffodils have dared to bloom yet. The snow that is predicted probably won't last too long this time of year (probably) being the key word in this sentence. We sure hope it doesn't last. My husband has been able to play golf for two days in a row and he is so loving that. He wasn't able to have his left hip replaced as he'd planned because of some other health issues. However, the left hip didn't seem to bother him too much playing golf. He will reschedule the hip surgery for the fall.

I'm praying your neighbor lady's friend will love your house enough to buy it. You've done so very much to spruce things up and replaced all kinds of things. You're phenomenal Karol Armstrong. I admire your perseverance. I just know you must get pretty tired because you never stop doing things. I'm just thankful you have the strength and energy to keep on keeping on. Love, Ruth
