Hello All
About those pesky apostrophes, I really am concerned.  I see them misused or 
not used a lot.  I spent a lot of time in school learning about these things.  
And, I have studied this problem for awhile now.  I think most of the problem 
is that it is overlooked in lessons now or a typo.  Sometimes even auto 
corrector messes it up.  And, sometimes it is just a mistake.  As a college 
instructor grading final projects, if there is a formal paper, I think this 
needs to be attended to and done right.  
As for a wake up call, I get up about 430 every morning.  Sometimes, I take a 
mid morning nap before my early afternoon nap, but I use The Andy Griffith Show 
Theme as the alarm.  While it wake you up, wide awake, I just feel good knowing 
I will have a Mayberry Day.  
The Bed Jacket episode is such a sweet episode.  It really showed how Andy felt 
about Aunt Bee. Nowadays we don't worry about gloves, hats, purses, nor bed 
jackets. But, there was a time when they were considered.  When I went to the 
hospital to have wisdom teeth removed in 1976, Mama insisted I have a bed 
jacket to wear in the hospital bed to greet visitors.  This was not to be 
confused with the robe I was to wear when I went to the restroom.  Even as far 
back as then, Mama had trouble finding one.  But, she found it.  I greeted my 
visitors appropriately dressed.  While my mama was in her last days, I made 
sure, as visitors came to call she had her bed jacket on.  I know it meant 
something to her.  That's what counted.  I miss wearing white gloves or pearled 
gloves to church on Sunday.  I have carpal tunnel and sometimes my hands are 
just cold.  I wear fingerless gloves for that and knitted gloves to match my 
coat when I can.  I guess I am just old fashioned that way.  
And seeing Aunt Bee bounce on that piano stool and rip the piano apart white 
"Toot toot tootsie" is always a way to make my day.  There's Marshall Dillion, 
where's Chester?
