Oh, Gail, that reminds me . . . I need to get a copy of the "what judges look for" booklet . . . I am going to take the judging school at the state show in November . . .
Bingo Calls 3
Gail,when your done reading your new book,please put me on the list to read.Thanks.LOL.Your car won't start falling apart till it gets as old as mine,15 years old with 175,000 miles.LOL.LOL
Good for you Nichole! Learning to be a judge is awesome.Maybe you can tell me how to make a AV grow symmetrical(sp)?
opps,really got of the bingo topic,sorry ^_^
I am hoping that I will learn how to grow things symmetrical!
I am going to take that course at the state convention, too......Nichole
Also want to hear Danny speak about growing avs.
I can't make an african violet look good and grow symmetrically hard as i try!
Jan, are you sure it is a good idea to keep putting money in a 15 year old car........I worry about you!! You are going to get stuck on the side of the road again!!
First cup of coffee..have to wake up....
My car is only 10 years old so I feel left out:)
Pat
on list at top: #52 is not marked as called
#52 Kohleria Amanda's Penny - called on August 25th.
I thought I had mis-marked it on my list.
You are messing with my head. LOL
My car will be 15 in January--has < 100,000 mi on it. It has given me very little trouble. It has this one quirk--every once in awhile, usually at the post office for some reason, it just won't start. The engine turns over, but won't catch. After 5-30 minutes, and several tries, it starts normally, and runs fine till the next time....which could be in weeks or months. Once I had it towed, and almost had a $500+ repair done, only to have it start right up, so the mechanic did not know what to repair! It's been looked at by several mechanics--no one can figure it out, so I live with it! LOL
I will wait until Nichole comes around and reads the posts about Amanda Penny.........thanks for catching it, Imadigger.
I intend to keep my car another 6 years if she will go that far with me........
Ha! None of the three calls were marked off for that day! I was testing you! (yeah, that's it, I was testing you . . . )

I may not win this BINGO game but I just got word my eldest daughter is having a baby!!!! WOO HOO it will be her third...and is a big surprise! Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers...she has had two miscarriages. She has two beautiful children, Caron, a little boy 9 years old and Madison a precious little girl 8 years old...she wasn't planning to have more because she has so much trouble carrying them....of course God has plans we don't know about! Thanks for sharing in my JOY!!!!!!!!!
OH, Janet..................woo hoo is right! God always has better plans than we do!!! Keep us posted............I am dmailing you.
JanetS . . . you're in the running the same as everyone else!
Next Bingo call:

LOL I didn't have that one either!
Good calls! I only need 4 more.
LOL Gail,Don't worry about me. I love my car!
I like to think, me and my car are aging, gracefully together ^_^
And just think,I only have another 10 years to go with "Tilly" and I'll be able to register her as a classic car..LOL
Janet,
Congratulations!! I will certainly keep your daughter in my thoughts and prayers.
Ok,everybody,I'm not playing this time,but somebody needs to put some antennas on their bingo hats.....LOL.
I love it that your car has a name, Jan.................."Tilly" is a great name and..........wouldn't it be fun if you really could keep her going another 10 years and sell her as a classic. (smiling)
Thank you I forgot to tell you her name is Stephanie, and all prayers and good thoughts are appreciated!
I think your daughter's baby tops the bingo for sure! Congratulations!
Pat
Thanks...

Congratulations, JanetS. Will certainly keep Stephanie in my prayers for a good pregnancy, and healthy babe.
I'm now down to waiting for 5 #s.
Second Bingo call for today:
72 Strep: Remembering John
Remembering John is one of my very favorite streps. Trivia: David Thompson lost his brother to cancer and named this strep in his brother's memory.
From my own pictures.......
****edited to say I just counted and I only need 2 more.........along with at least 8 people I am sure!!!

I'm down to needing 3 more.it's going to be a fast paced ending to this great game.
What a nice thing david thompson did to name a strep after his brother and a beautiful one too.
Isn' t that nice.......and I think Remembering John is one of his very best streps!!
If I didn't miscount, I was one of the two that needed 6 more earlier. As Nichole said, it is anyone's game right now. I missed several on my list after that and now I have 2 left to go.
That is very interesting about the name and a very thoughtful thing to do. I ended up ordering one because it is also my husband's name. Don't know what I am doing but I have one now :)
Good luck everyone on the final calls!
Connie
My nerves are shot!! LOL!!
It always comes right down to the wire no matter how few or how many play!!!!
Well, I am tired, been up since3:30, so I am going down for the night. Nobody gets to yell bingo til tomorrow. LOL!!!
By the way...I just have to do this;
HAPPY BIRTHDAY GAIL!!!!
I think it is time for a final Bingo call for today:
75 Strep: Watermelon Wine
Waiting for it . . . waiting for it . . . waiting . . . waiting . . . ^_^
