Myra's cooking up in flames!


Hey y'all, it's Julie

Well folks, mom and dad have done it now; Saturday mom was cooking and caught the kitchen on fire!!! Dad, being the hero he is, sprung into action, grabbed the fire extinguisher and went at it!!! Vigorously! He destroyed that grease fire, and the house in his mission! Mom called and told me all about the mess a fire extinguisher makes...well duh, that's why u throw Baking Soda or Powder on it!! I went and checked it out Monday, after she had been cleaning it all day, and man, was it a wreck. The ceiling was scorched, every surface had a layer of white dust on it, and even the carpet upstairs was black! This was one of those times your thankful you pay for insurance. The insurance agent came out and now mom is getting the whole house painted, all the clothes are going to the dry cleaners, new blinds, new flooring, new fans, and every piece of furniture, and decoration is being cleaned!!!  Since all this is getting done, I think the grease fire was a blessing in disguise.

As an added bonus, all Mikie and my show clothes are being moved to my air-conditioned basement! They've been housed upstairs in my brothers closet...mom and dad don't run the ac up there, so putting our habits together in a hot closet always makes for some tension and hurrying to get the heck out of there!

The Lord works in mysterious ways, He makes a bad situation a blessing! His love knows no bounds!

Tune in next Tuesday, for our regularly scheduled program.
