Then it was time for lunch. We had a special treat today. Phill prepared and served a Lebanese lunch. It was enjoyed by all.

ANNOUNCEMENTS 01-26-2023 OTHG
Please stop table talk and silence your phones.

Any new folks today?
(Why not? Y’all trying to keep this a secret?)
Have y’all signed in? It helps us with our documentation and, as you know, puts you on the drawing for a prize. 

PARTLY PERSONAL: this may well be the last time you see Ella and me for awhile. I begin radiation this time next week. The average length of treatments is 45 days. I don’t know what my treatment schedule will be. If we are able, we will still be here on Thursdays.

That, however, means we have stepped down as board members. The board, according to our bylaws, must consist of 6 members. Jannett has agreed to fill the presidency spot. That means we need a new vice president and a director to serve until the yearly electio bes
It is the board’s duty to fill these positions. So if asked, please say yes. Thank you 

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Your craft supplies and bingo prizes donations are appreciated. Please bring them and leave in the office area.

THANK YOU GARY SPIVEY for giving us a Look Back at Liberty Hill. We look forward to hearing more about the history of this chunk of God’s country.

JOKE:.  Perfect Marriage?
A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had kept no secrets from each other, except that the little old woman had a shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never to open or ask her about.

For all of these years, he had never thought about the box, but one day, the little old woman got very sick and the doctor said she would not recover.

In trying to sort out their affairs, the little old man took down the shoe box and took it to his wife’s bedside.

She agreed that it was time that he should know what was in the box. When he opened it, he found two crocheted dolls and a stack of money totaling $95,000.

He asked her about the contents. “When we were to be married,” she said, “my grandmother told me the secret of a happy marriage was to never argue. She told me that if I ever got angry with you, I should just keep quiet and crochet a doll.”

The little old man was so moved; he had to fight back tears. Only two precious dolls were in the box. She had only been angry with him two times in all those years of living and loving. He almost burst with happiness.

“Honey,” he said, “that explains the dolls, but what about all of this money? Where did it come from?”

“Oh,” she said. “That’s the money I made from selling the dolls.

Bless us, O God. Bless our food and our drink. Since you redeemed us so dearly and delivered us from evil, as you gave us a share in this food so may you give us a share in eternal life.

Sunday January 8th private birthday party

Turnout was about ¾ of our normal group for lunch, which was a shame because it was real good. (spiral-cut ham, black eyed peas, veggie medley, salad, fruit jello, rolls) Most of us stayed and helped with cleanup and then played games. Ella and I left at 3:00 and Five Crowns was just starting a new game.
