FRIDAY NIGHT MIXER
The Friday Mixer was the
beginning of our weekend party. Everyone
gathered at 3:00 to visit with their
school mates and companions, neighbors
and friends, enjoying some of the best
hors d'oeuvres and finger sandwiches
ever.
After the Mixer parties continued at the
Embassy Suites Bar area and in some of
the suites. It was indeed a ‘party
weekend’! SATURDAY NIGHT DINNER
When we entered the
banquet room at six o’clock, we easily
found our classmates at our assigned
table. Our friends were located all in
the same area with other years close to
ours. This year class years were posted
on the tables so we could see who was
sitting next to and could easily hobnob
with those upper classmen.
Remarkably, everything
ran very smoothly from picking up
welcoming bags to having class pictures
taken, although the committee sadly
admits and apologizes to Dan Wagoner '65
for printing his twin brothers picture
on his name
tag. Goodie bags were
gratefully received and explored. |

Natural Remedies |
||
Here are just a few Natural Remedies to get rid of pests around the house (no, not my husband) These won’t kill the pests, just make them go away. These are harmless to humans and with my grandbabies; I am not using harsh chemicals and poisons. 1. Use vegetable oil to remove burrs from your pets’ fur. Rub a little vegetable oil on a cloth, and moisten the burrs and they will slide right off and not hurt Fido.
1.
2.
Roaches - Hot sauce and water mixed and spray. Hope these help just a little. One more note: buy a leather collar for your pet: use rosemary, oregano and orange slices in warm water. Soak that collar for 24 hours. Let dry. This is a “natural” flea collar for pets and will work. After 3 weeks treat collar again. Don’t forget to use that lavender oil in pets bedding to get rid of the fleas that could be lurking there!!! |
