now back to our regularly scheduled program
Dear Loyal Visitors of the Hawley Focus,
I’m truly sorry for the confusion this website may have caused this weekend/part of today. It was entirely my fault as I let the bills go unpaid until it was too late. I kept meaning to pay them, but I’d always find something else to do. However, when I saw some strange chick splashed across the page and links for Hawley Real Estate, Hawley, PA, David Hawley(?), and other Hawley related websites, then I knew there was trouble. The bills are now paid, and the site has been re-instated.
Again, sorry for the mishap. I did get some emails and phone calls regarding the lack of focus on the hawleys this weekend. No, Mike and I are not in trouble. No, we did not change our last name to Gambolputty. And, no, we are not fleeing the country to hide from the FBI, CIA, NSA, SEC, IRS, FTC, NASA, DEA, HUD, FCC, EPA, FDIC, USDA, OSHA, SSA, DOT, FDA, ATF or the USPS. Thank you for your concern though.
Sincerely,
Dedicated Owners of Hawley Focus
In other news, on Wednesday I had the pleasure of co-oping at Mimi’s school not realizing that the field trip for that day wasn’t until 12 noon. So I got to be with Mimi at school from 8:30 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. We did have fun though and got to see an adorable play at the local Catholic high school called, “Surf’s Up Santa”. Mimi was in awe from start to finish. The basic premise of the story was that the local surf shop was going to be demolished in order to build condos. So the surf shop groupies/workers asked Santa for his help. I’m sure you can guess the rest.




Just a little video of the girls skating, so you can see their progress. They really are coming along nicely. Aren’t they cute?

I forgot to post these sooner. While in MN Mike took the girls to his mom’s neighborhood pond to walk on the ice. I think it was their first time. Lucy’s an expert though and did her figure skating routine.


And one last thing. Mike made a huge pot of pheasant soup with alphabet noodles and canned most of it resulting in about 8 jars. When it got time to pressure cook the jars Mike noticed his pressure cooker was missing a crucial piece which aided in the pressurizing. He was able to rig it up with tongs, some metal clip thingy, and a bullet casing. Mike was quite pleased with himself.
