Getting spammed to pieces?

***A friend reported that it is very quiet in the park right now. October will be coming soon. I personally miss it already I'm sure others are too.



I had surgery on my right wrist and typing is somewhat difficult for me right now. In another week I should be able to type better.



***For some reason my Juno is not sending Bits & Pieces out to people with email addresses with Hotmail, Live, MSN, and outlook. You can read Bits & Pieces on Barb Brooker's blog. If you know anyone with those addresses in their email please let them know they are not getting it and I am working on trying to fix it. Gmail goes through just fine.

Sorry about the trouble and hope to get it fixed soon.

Take care!!

Bits & Pieces

 ***Ann led the park meeting today.  She said that there are 98 people in the park on 56 sites with 24 pets.

***She asked people to slow down!!  Doesn't that sound familiar.  Someone also added that some of the golf carts could slow down too.  I'll add that the golf carts need to stop at the stop signs.  

***We need the prayer wheel to spin for Willard Utech.  He is going to have surgery for a heart valve repaired tomorrow morning.  Keep Barb included in the prayer wheel spinning.  

***While you are spinning the Prayer wheel do it for Karen and Ron Bitterman too.  Their daughter passed away.  I'm not sure if this address is correct for the Bitterman's.  It is the last one I could find.  562 Deegan St., Hill City, SD 57745.  If someone has a newer address please let me know. 

 

Take Care  !!

***From Barb Pearson:  My surgery scheduled for Wed, May 3 has been postponed due to my recent CT scan showing possible small multiple pulmonary nodules increasing in size and number in my lung.   I'm being referred to a cardiothoracic surgeon to get a sample of a nodule to confirm if it is cancerous or benign.  If the cancer is spreading, they will not do surgery.  If it is not spreading, then we will proceed with surgery.  I feel good.  My blood work came back good, my tumor shows signs of shrinking, and my tumor marker is down significantly.  My oncologist said I responded very well to treatment so he doesn't totally agree with the radiologist's findings.  He has scheduled me for another CT scan on May 25 in addition to the tissue sample.  I know God is in control.  His timing is not our timing.  So now we wait.  I have faith and believe that God will see me through this.  Thanks for your continued prayers.

***1986 Park Model Lot #401 Very Nice. 1 Bedroom/1 Bathroom, Ceiling Fans, Furnished 2 Televisions, Laundry w/Washer & Dryer, Large Stained Deck, Storage Shed, Metal Roof, Carport, Good Location. Asking $14,900.   Call Lynn at 540-533-6240. 

 

***Hello everyone in the US and Canada

I am applying to sponsor a young family from Ukraine.  Mom and 8-month baby fled to Poland and dad is still in Ukraine.  They are applying both to the US and Canada.  She does not have a sponsor in Canada and would have to have one.  I can have a group sponsor to help with expenses and the commitment is for 2 years  I would really appreciate help if anyone is willing.  They will need help with air flights, money, or miles.  They will need pretty much everything for themselves and the baby.  I have a finished basement that I will fix up for them. They will get jobs and eventually a place of their own.  

If anyone in Canada would like to apply as their sponsors that would be good too.  I think this is an awesome opportunity to help Ukraine. Please prayerfully consider helping and let me know if you are willing to be a part of this.  

You can get more information online at Welcome. Ukraine. And US for Ukraine

Please let me know if you have any questions and Thanks for considering the opportunity.

Love and blessings to you all

Suzie Kritta

 

Get the Prayer Wheel spinning for Barb as she goes through these tests and cancer treatments.

***I want to thank Sylvia Leach for videoing the first half of the park meeting today. We got an opportunity to meet Trophy Gardens' new managers—Scott & Ann Streber. Ann said a few words and let us know how she appreciated the friendliness of our park.

***Ann gave us the numbers for the week—there are 119 people in the park on 69 sites with 29 pets.

***If you want to see the video go to Facebook, the Trophy Gardens Residents page and scroll down until you see the video.

 

***The weather here in Iowa is cold and wet. The wet is much needed tho. The trees are just budding and the grass is very green. I guess it is time to do some woodcarving since I can't do yard work.

 

***Harold & Logie Vandehaar would like to rent a park model or mobile for January and February next year.  Call 573-216-9238.

 

Take Care!!
