The boys and I went to Spring Creek (Murray's Nursing Home) to play Bingo with some of the residents.  I've got several favorites over there already...Mrs Hill. She has 2 boys, one that comes all the time, one that only comes about once a month.  She and her husband married when she was only 17. She's a bright, funny lady who loves to scrapbook and take pictures..and eat candy!  Mr Tucker. A corn farmer who lost an arm in a cornpicker accident several years ago.  He was only 15 when he married his 13 year old wife. His brother was 13 when he and his 13 year old wife married.  Mr Tucker and his brother lived close to Mrs Hill's parents as young boys and helped them around the farm.  Mrs Hill now "takes care" of Mr Tucker as a thank you for everything he did for her parents..when he dozed off, she continued to mark his bingo card! He usually wins when he falls asleep she said. She told the aide that next time, Mr Tucker needs a sleeping pill before they play bingo! Mrs Robertson had a stroke about 2 years ago and no longer has the use of her right arm and right leg..she jokes with me that she can move her wheelchair pretty good, but only in a circle. She moved in with her son in Louisville after the stroke, but really just wanted to come back to Murray to be with her friends.  Rebecca is a hippie..likes to talk about having a beer with her medication and asked the boys if they knew where she could get some weed.  She saw Elvis in Memphis when she was 10 and he kissed her hand.  She was an assistant to Crystal Gale in Nashville.  I laughed today at the characters in the room...Mrs Shoemaker, who struggles to make out the numbers on the card. Mrs Catherine who was a hairdresser and now has long painted fingernails and I'm sure a long interesting list of stories to tell.  A relatively young black man who's missing both legs and most of his teeth, but has an infectious grin and is constantly teasing the aide calling out "bingo". The woman with only a few strands of hair and a cranky disposition who told me in a loud, authoritative voice " YOUR HARR LOOKS LIKE A BOYS!"  I cracked up!  I had such a great time and so did the boys...Jerome has decided that he'll do his 5 hours a week community volunteering there once school begins.  It was a good day!  Love you all,  Jamie
