Food for thought – One thing you can’t recycle is wasted time!

Our monthly 42 game had 2 plus tables.  Those who played were Bob Adams, Earl Eblen, Sandy Goodner, Janis King, Jimmie Pettigrew, Margaret Phillips, Ella Mae Hall, Imogene Davis, Fred Melcher, and Nancy Harlan.

We are looking for people who would like to play balloon volley ball.  If you are interested let us know.  We will have a sign up sheet at the center.  Hopefully we can start balloon volley ball again.

Do you have your Halloween costume ready.  Thursday Oct. 31 is the day. We will be looking for the scariest, cute/funny and original.  Come join us for lunch and a lot of fun.

Bingo on Monday had 29 Bingo players.  The secret prize was won by Carolyn Walker.  The blackout amount of $51.32 was won by Sandy Goodner.

Upcoming events – Mark your calendars! Friday (Oct. 25) Flu shots! from 9-12 by Slaton Pharmacy. Monday (Oct. 28) Bingo from 1-2. Thursday (Oct. 31) Halloween-all day- wear your costume.

Just for laughs –  Tired of having to balance his wife Dot’s checkbook, Dave made a deal with her; he would only look at it after she had spent a few hours trying to get it into shape.  Only then would he lend his expertise.  The following night, after spending hours poring over the figures, Dot said, “There! I did it! I made it balance!”  Dave was impressed and came over to take a look.  “Let’s see…mortgage, seven hundred dollars, electricity, sixty-four dollars and 12 cents, telephone, thirty-eight dollars and 73 cents…” His brow wrinkled as he read the last entry.  “It says here ESP, six hundred and forty-four dollars. What is that?”  “Oh,” she said “that means ‘error some place.’”

Mow delivers for Oct. 14 – 18 were done by Bible Baptist Church. Those who served were Donovan Reader, Beverly Frazier, Pat McIntire, Dru Richardson, Jamil Wilson, Earl Barksdale, Anita King, Karen Branscum, and Mickie Fondy.

MOW deliveries for Oct. 28 – Nov. 1 is the responsibility of Slaton Care Center.
