Howdy from Sevierville, Tennessee!
This is your friend, Copper Penny Morgan, writing; hope this finds y'all well and happy!
Sorry if I haven't written in here in so long; things have been kinda crazy. Daddy lost his job, but he has since found a new one, and mama was in a bad car wreck and broke her back. She can walk, but she has some leftover pain, and sometimes she gets stiff, especially on bad-weather days.
And then my youngest brother, Cassidy-Jack (C.J. for short) broke his arm when my stupid older brother, Calvin, pushed him off the swing out of pure-t meanness. He had to have pins put in and everything so the bones could be straightened out. He still has the cast on his arm; might be another month or two before he gets it off.
As you can imagine, Calvin, got in a whole world of trouble. No computer, no television, no havin' friends over until he realizes the harm he could have done, and until he apologizes to little C.J. He says it was his brother's fault when we saw him push him off the swing. Liar!! He lies like a rug: he lies all the time! He's gonna have to do some serious praying and repenting or else he's gonna end up being burned up in Hell!
I still want to be a country singer, like my favorite, Loretta Lynn. (HA! Thought for a minute that I was gonna say Dolly Parton, huh?? Nope! I like Dolly, don't get me wrong, but Loretta Lynn is my favorite female country singer!) I still want to see her in concert so bad I can't stand it!!
I want to go to Dollywood at the end of next month: Loretta Lynn is due to perform there. Maybe I can convince mama and daddy that I can be a good girl and do what is expected! I am trying really hard to be good, but sometimes my brothers make it so danged hard!!
I wish I could send them to Australia, where the Aboriginies could boil and eat 'em up for lunch!!
Well, I hate to run, but Peanut, my eight year old brother, is bellerin' like a stuck pig. I have to see what is going on. I will write in here again soon; until later, this is Copper Morgan saying so long!
