Memorial day

Today we remember those who have

served this country both past and

present.  I don't know any service

members  that are currently

serving, but I would like to thank

my father, Robert, and my husband,

John, for their service.  My dad was in

during the Korean war.  He was in the

Army but was mainly stationed at the 

Air  Force base in Alaska.

John was in during the Viet Nam war.  He

was in the Air Force and served in many

different places including the same base

as my dad in Alaska.  Also, Las Vegas and

Korea.  I'm proud of both of them.

I am obviously into scoring and pearls lately.

This card was supposed to have the embellishment

in the left hand lower corner.  BUT.  I wasn't paying

attention to where the card opened.  Oh well.  It 

looks pretty nice this way, too.  Since this is

a square card I made it for someone I can hand

deliver it to so I don't have to pay for extra

postage.  Smart, huh?  I do have my moments.

 

We had some great thunder yesterday and 

heavy rain at times.  I don't think we'll get

anything today.  There's only a 30% chance.

 

I'm so happy that we are going to have a

5 week  summer signing class.  This one will

be on signs that are easily confused.  Such 

as "early" and "empty" which can also be used 

for naked.....Someone told me once

they told a deaf person they had eaten

earlier...but used the wrong sign.  He laughed

and she realized what she'd signed.  Funny stuff!

I have gotten a lot of signs confused.  When I 

first started I couldn't get "have" and "want"

straight for anything.  They aren't that close

but I had a lot of trouble remembering 

which was which.  So I'm looking forward

to the class.   I just love learning sign!

 

Happy Monday and Happy Memorial day!
