    3. Good morning everyone, it's a little overcast today, but that's good for working in the garden. I told you, I would have to be out in front helping cut up, and loading that tree that went down in the wind. Our granddaughter helped too, we were out early before it got to hot, and worked passed noon. I was so tired, after taking a hot bath, I laid down and took a two hour nap, and went to bed at ten and slept till 7:30 AM the next morning. Woke up with a back ache, and I still have one !!!! What is that saying ?? "no rest for the wicked" I am planning on not doing very much today, I bought a Turkey breast last week, I think I will roast it for dinner, not sure what else we'll have, maybe just fresh turkey sandwich's, one of my favorites. Ran around on Sunday with granddaughter, she needed a few things, she starts her new Job as a intern today. Hope this job is everything she wants it to be, it will mean a summer job, just what she's been looking for. Oh happy day's, I wanted it to get warm, but it's gone from cold to hot, was over 80 degrees yesterday, and was even hotter on Saturday, as I broke my back (cutting up tree limb). they say it will cool down some and we may see a few showers [I don't think so] in a few days !!! In our local paper they have a full page on Shirley Temple, my name sake. My sister wanted to name me Shirley Temple, that's how I got my name Shirley. Shirley Temple Black turns 85 tomorrow, she's won 2 academy awards, one miniature "juvenile" Oscar in 1934, and one full size Lifetime Achievement award in 1985. She was the Rose Parade grand marshal at age ten in 1939, At the age of ten, her weekly salary was $1,250. It also says she had 56 corkscrew curls on her head. Her first marriage to John Agar [the war hero] she was 17 and there were 500 guests at the wedding. At the ripe old age of 22, she announced her retirement from films. When the song "On The Good Ship Lollipop" debuted in 1934, they sold 500,000 copies of the music. Sales of Shirley Temple dolls, by 1941 went to 45 million dollars. I have a few of Shirley Temples movies, on VHS, and when my granddaughter was around 5, she loved them, I had told her I was named after her, she even liked them better.
