Car sticker of a guy friend..."Smile for the camera!" silver dot in the middle of black circle. Corvette never stolen.
Another friend, widowed mother going through chemo, apartment had been robbed 2 or 3 times. One summer her radiologist gave her oldest son (7 yrs old) Radioactive sticker during one of her treatments for behaving so well in the lobby & "helping" his mother. He put the sticker on the apartment front door storm glass, voila! no more burglars! Oh, she has been in remission for 10 years! She has said many times that the sticker changed the direction of her life in so many ways!
We have a dog bowl just outside the back door that we fill with water, "KILLER" is etched on it in BIG letters (bad guys don't see a dog in the yard & think the dog must be IN the house, so they go away. Our beagle in the house would only want to play. Not too many approach our place because our daughter wears a federal officer uniform and has a 1,000 yard stare that scares even me!

August Birthday squares sent
 
Hi All,
This is Renee, I am Jarenie's daughter. She has been in rehab for a while and I am tanking care of the board for her. She is doing well and I hope to have her home next month. She has been hand sewing, as they will not let me bring in her sewing machine. She is ready to come home and I am ready to have her home.
Have a great day all of you great quilters.

Squares for KathyM were mailed on Monday so she should have them today or tomorrow.

Glad to hear that jarenie is improving. Best wishes to her.

DJMat, excellent ideas for improving odds to prevent burglaries!

DH and I was on vacation and I have not yet mailed my Aug candies. My postage is at my office so for KathyM I must apologize that I will be late in getting your candies to you, but do not fear, they will be in the mail on Monday.
