I hope all of you had a wonderful week. As I get older and have experienced serious illness I am so glad and thankful to see another day. Each Monday is a good one, and I hope you too make the most out of every day. We don't know when our time will come, so try to be prepared and right with the Lord and don't forget to thank God for your health and other blessings. .Sincere love and sympathy to all who lost loved ones recently. Our prayers and thoughts are with you. .Jim and Karan Newsome of Rayle visited Jenelle Newsome Saturday. Jim drops by real often to work on the farm. We are sorry to hear that Rick Newsome broke his arm. Surely hope it will heal quickly without problems. .Guests of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Tuttle on Thanksgiving were Mr. and Mrs. Henry O'Pry of Athens and Mr. and Mrs. Hill O'Neal.

We fed her twice a day and tried to findher owner but to no avail. So I suppose after a few weeks, she's ours now. If anyone wants a puppy for Christmas, give me a call.

I promise. .Our visitors have been Sarah Huff, Burt Newsome, Shannon Thomasson, Taylor McAvoy, and the Gaines family of Winterville. .I dropped by to see Warren and Lois Nunn a while Saturday.
