Note Re - Poinsettia Class

For Monday, December 13th, for those people who are doing the twisted poinsettia to bring a pencil, ruler, and eraser and Dorris will bring the tracing paper .

and, we are planning on coming back to the hall after lunch, will probably just sit around and visit for a while so bring any hand work that you might want to work on.

Willy T.  sent this commemoration piece on the event and appearance of Julie Andrews on her 85th Birthdays. 

*Julie Andrews Turning 85*   

To commemorate her birthday, actress/vocalist, Julie Andrews made a special appearance at Manhattan's Radio City Music Hall for the benefit of the AARP.  
One of the musical numbers she performed was 'My Favorite Things' from the legendary movie 'Sound Of Music'.  Here are the lyrics she used: 

*Botox and nose drops and needles for knitting,* 
*Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings,* 
*Bundles of magazines tied up in string,* 
*_These are a few of my favorite things_* 

*Cadillacs and cataracts,*  *hearing aids and glasses,* 
*Polydent and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses,* 
*Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings,* 
 *_These are a few of my favorite things._* 

*When the pipes leak, When the bones creak,* 
*When the knees go bad,* 
*I simply remember my* *favorite things,* 
   *And then I don't feel so bad.* 

*Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for bunions,* 
*No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions,* 
*Bathrobes and heating* *pads and hot meals they bring,* 
   *_These are a few of my favorite things._* 

*Back pain, confused brains and no need for sinnin',* 
*Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinning',*   
*And we won't mention our short shrunken frames,* 
 *_When we remember our favorite things._* 

*When the joints ache, When the hips break,* 
   *When the eyes grow dim,* 
*Then I remember the great life I've had,* 
     *And then I don't feel so bad.* 

_Ms. Andrews received a standing ovation from the crowd_ 
_that lasted over four minutes and repeated encores. Please_ 
_share Ms. Andrews' clever wit and humor with others who_ 
_would appreciate it.

Lovely Christmas Table runner

The Flying Geese that almost got away

The Buzzard, the Bat, the Bumble Bee and People   

THE BUZZARD   If you put a buzzard in a pen that is 6 feet by 8 feet and is entirely open at the top, The bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be an absolute prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of 10 to 12 feet. Without space to run, as is its habit, it will not even attempt to fly, But will remain a prisoner for life -------------------------------- THE BAT     The ordinary bat that flies around at night, a remarkable nimble creature in the air, Cannot take off from a level place. If it is placed on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is shuffle about helplessly and, No doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight elevation from which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like a flash. -------------------------------- THE BUMBLEBEE   A bumblebee, if dropped into an open tumbler, will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but persists in trying to find some way out Through the sides near the bottom. It will seek a way where none exists, until it completely destroys itself. -------------------------------- PEOPLE In many ways, people are like the buzzard, the bat, and the bumblebee. We struggle with all our problems and frustrations, never realizing that all we have to do is look up! That's the answer, the escape route and the solution to any problem... Just look up! Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, But faith looks up! Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly,   Share this with a friend... I just did.
