This book is a real page turner! Read it and you’ll have hope for tomorrow!
STORYBOOK II by Elena Dorothy Bowman
Within the pages of this book are stories that my mother once told me;
of certain incidences that she remembered. But mostly it is compiled of
the memories that were a part of our lives. Doors were never locked
friends and neighbors were welcomed anytime they happened to pass by.
And it was an era where whenever someone visited at dinner time, an
extra plate was always set out for the visitor to join in the family meal.

LOST SPIRIT: A Hannah Griswold Mystery, Vol. 2. by Robert Kanehl
In her second adventure, Hannah Griswold begins to experience ghostly visitations once more. The ones she had back in 8th Grade had nearly destroyed her. Now it’s happening again.
Worse, Nathan, her best friend’s boy friend, who had once teased Hannah unmercifully, is also experiencing the ghostly presence. Can Hannah solve the mystery of a missing Civil War Soldier who stands accused of desertion?
If she doesn’t, will her best friend ever forgive her for seeming to share more than a casual friendship with the her steady, Nathan?
Then Came Heaven is a source of inspiration and guidance; it serves as a loving example of what it means to live no matter where the truth may lead you or how difficult it may be. It is also a lesson on the patience of change. Each page is the embodiment of hope, trust, knowledge, and self-acceptance
to develop a sense of worth within ourselves.

ATTN: Joey Carr. PLEASE send us your cover. You are doing a fine job promoting your book, but we have no book at all for either of US to sell, because it has been edited six weeks ago and cannot be completed until we get a cover! If your artist can't be moved, I'd be happy to help Arline design one...How about one with a nice blue cat? Or even a calico one like my sister?
And Here at Home
Our Dave is not improving as quickly as we had hoped, and he sounded really down about it on the phone, today. (Yes, I do KNOW what he says, because Arline is so deaf the only way she can hear him at all is to put him on Speaker.) I sure understand why he's impatient, but this is going to take time. He had an awful lot of work done....
I am almost ashamed to have mentioned my own operation, which was only ONE day in the hospital. Dave was operated on, on Monday and this is Friday already, and I KNOW he is getting homesick. Especially since Shelley is here at home, because she had to go back to work. Healing takes time... so I'm keeping up my cat prayers. After all, every little bit helps.
The whole Chase family is grateful for all your prayers, thoughts and good wishes, too. It means a lot!
Our Sid is home, feeling a little better every day. I sure will be glad to see him when he is able to visit again. :D (He and his lady, Kathy, have a very free hand with the cat treats whenever they come!)
Please don't
forget to let me know
what you are all up to!
Just send me an e-mail
with
"News for Jack"
in the subject line, and
I'll make sure it shows up
right here.
Thanks!
Thanks!
