This is more for Foxy than everyone else, but I thought some of the new peeple
here, and possibly some of the old ones, don't know how to pronounce my NDN name.
I guess it would be easier if I used my Yonegi name here, but I don't hear it spoken enough anymore to hardly answer to it as most folks I know call me Yvsa.
Besides that I don't like to be called "***" To me it's almost as bad as "Two Dogs F******".
Soooo that leads me to another special visit to my b-i-law's place and to post this
...............
Barb answered our phone this morning about 9:15 our time, Central Daylight Savings Time, and told the person they had the wrong number without thinking first.
As soon as she hung up she told me, "I think I just fouled up a phone call for you." and told me why. Barb said the person was asking for Eesah or something of the like and then happened to think that someone may have been trying to ask for Yvsa.
So if anyone from the forums tried to call me this morning(Foxy?) you had the correct number, just the wrong pronounceation of Yvsa.
Gang, it's pronounced Yuh(n)suh, in Cherokee the letter "v" is pronounced "uh" and almost, probably, everyone in the North American Continent knows one Cherokee word, Uh-Uh for yes and that's the way it's said in Cherokee except it's spelled "vv" in my language.
Actually Yvsa is Cherokee Slang for Ya(n)asa
(English meaning "Buffalo") with the letter "n" being more a nasal twang and only slightly heard. The closest almost all people can get that doesn't know Cherokee is Yuhs Suh and I will answer to that and more importantly my Dear Mate Barbie will recognize it. 
So if you called this morning try back tomorrow, if we're not there in the morning leave your name and number and I will call you back as Friday is generally a workout day and I've missed way to many workouts the last couple of weeks.
As to my health...... Gang it's really much better than it was even if I've had a few bad days lately. But thanks for the good wishes, They are Appreciated!!!!
I've dropped a total of 60 pounds since I started first on the Atkin's diet and then switched to my present diet program!!!!
Got 75 pounds to go.
When our kid and grandkid's came in from Pennsylvania on a
SURPRISE VISIT!!!!
two weeks ago I was able to walk most of the public animal trail's out at our Tulsa Zoo. And although I did get a bit too hot at the end and Barb had to get me a ride to the front gate I did real good and was fine the next day.
We all really enjoyed the new African Penquin Exhibit!!!! It's so new that none of us had seen it before.
Then the weekend before that we spent from Friday about 2:00 p.m. until late Saturday afternoon with our son and his wife Deb down at Tahlequah, the Headquarter's of The Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma.
We saw the Trail of Tears Drama at the Cherokee Ground's Friday night and then went on a tour of the Living TsaLaGi Village Saturday. Had some mighty fine eatin' and of course some Excellent BBQ and the kids got us a really nice suite at the Holiday Inn there.
So, I've been getting my share of exercise in other ways, but still need the regimine and discipline of the health club.
Edit:
Well while I was posting this Foxy sent up smoke signals via satelite (Cell phone) and was asking about the Foxy's Follie. I'm gonna do the same mods to it I would've had it of really been mine and then send it on to him.
That means that I will get the first one of the next batch.
I'm really pleased that Foxy wanted this first example as he is entilted to it.
I'm happy to have received the very first examples of the YCS and The Cherokee Rose and it's only right that the designer get the first example!!!!
Bill, please make note of the above in bold. Now that I've got to handle the very First One I can hardly wait!!!!
But if there's a few that comes in at once I would like the lightest one of the bunch.
