Bob has been summoned for jury duty. Monday I will need to call the phone number to explain that he has worsening dementia and he will not be serving. I can hardly get him out of bed some days. Of course last night, all night,...

Heather Echola Thank you, Marie. Amber says perhaps he is too old to be eligible.

Heather Echola I had not heard that. Maybe it depends on the state. I will look that up.

Heather Echola I imagine I can do it without a note, we are such a small town, but if I have to, I certainly will.

When my mom was principal of my school, she always said the thing they got the best reaction from parents was the Kindergarten graduation. Parents would cry, take pictures, and everyone loved it. And this wasn’t graduating from...

Heather Echola @AmbiePam Around there they also put 5 year old little boys in tackle football. It all lets the parents bask in the kids glory, whether graduation or football or even rodeo and demolition derby around here.

Heather Echola @AmbiePam In the school where I worked, literacy exposure begins in pre school, which I did not have. I learned at home before kindergarten. That being said, even though teachers teach, not all students are ready to learn OR they are not supported and...

One of the nurses associated with the doctor that I have spoken to twice sent me a nasty message the other day. She didn't like my language. I am proud of my language. I am currently looking for a higher up type person to use my...

how do you dress? No, I do not mean one foot at a time or over the head or standing on your balcony. I really mean something like "What colors, and textures do you like in your clothing?" My daughter is very neutral. . . blue...

Heather Echola I really like turquoise. I notice I have lots of critter hair, but Bob has more. I thought of this discussion as I was working on "Unmodifying" a brilliant floral top that I got at the thrift shop. Someone had taken about an inch and a half out of the elastic...

Heather Echola That makes sense. I imagine you get lots of humidity and try to dress comfortable for that.

Heather Echola Black makes a great accent for your bright outfits. I think I have seen a picture of you in an orange dress.

Heather Echola Shoes and purses match. I remember when I did that. Now I just have this big black bag that holds all kinds of extra stuff. I find layers make me too hot. I would like the shrug much better than a hoodie.

Heather Echola I fully expected some type of risque answer from you. Yes, you do have to dress appropriate for your transportation.

Heather Echola Jeans are just not my go-to. I never had any until my first husband and I bought matching Levi's 501 jeans and I altered them with fabric inserts to be bell bottoms. (1969 or70) I liked the feel of Navy dungarees when he was in the Navy. They were a light...

Heather Echola I think we are sisters. I really liked those when you bought them. If the weather is cool I enjoy leggings, but I think they are going out of style.
