JUST A THOUGHT. . . SOMETIMES I HAVE JUST TO GET SOME THINGS OFF MY CHEST. AFTER ALL IT'S NOT VERY BIG AND SOME THINGS GET REALLY HEAVY AFTER WHILE. SPEAKING OF CHESTS, I WAS SHOPPING IN WALMART THE OTHER MORNING. I WALKED BACK TO LOOK AT THE FLOWERS AND A BUG FLEW DOWN THE FRONT OF MY SHIRT AND BIT ME 3 TIMES. THEY ITCHED HALF OF THE DAY. IS THIS CAUSE TO SUE? IF THEY WOULD OF JUST SWOLLEN IT WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM BUT IT’S KINDA HARD TO SCRATCH WHEN YOU ARE WORKING IN AN OFFICE AROUND MEN. ONE GUY OFFERED TO HELP SCRATCH BUT I DECLINED HIS OFFER. I TOLD THE CHECK OUR LADY BUT SHE DIDN'T THINK IT WAS A BIG THING. HA HA! I WOULD LIKE TO THANK LILA KAYLOR AND CAROL SMITH FOR THEIR YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS OF TEACHING OUR KIDS. THEY TAUGHT ALL THREE OF MINE AND I WORKED WITH THEM FOR 5 YEARS. THEY ARE WONDERFUL PEOPLE AND TERRIFIC TEACHERS. CAROL AND LILA BOTH RETIRED IN MAY. BELIEVE ME THEY DESERVE TO RETIRE WITH HONORS. GOOD LUCK AND ENJOY RETIREMENT! WE WENT TO THE PRODUCTION ON "CATS" IN RUGBY. IT WAS REALLY GREAT. LATOYIA (TRANA) WILLIAMS AND HER SON KEITH WERE PART OF THE CAST. LATORIA IS THE DAUGHTER OF SANDY AND HARLEN TRANA AND THE GRANDDAUGHTER OF BETTY TRANA. THEY DID SUCH A GOOD JOB. THE CAST, MUSICIANS AND THE SET DIRECTORS ARE ALL FROM THE RUGBY AREA. MY SISTER,
