Monday 7/7/14 Notary & Water Ice

Monday 7/7/14
Me & Janet from friend Jesse’s office.

I needed something for the car notarized so I went
to Jesse’s office (my financial advisor).

his co-worker Janet notarized my paperwork.
THEN Janet told me sister Pat taught her
in high school. AND she happened to
have her yearbook with her…..

sister Pat in 1984….

Miss Mathis!!

this is me……..

after getting the paperwork notarized,
friend Jesse & I went for a water ice
at nearby Annie’s.

We both got a GELATI:
that’s a water ice & soft serve ice cream.
Delicious on a HOT summer day.
