Reports:
  The credit union’s 40th anniversary celebration was enjoyed by all.  One hundred forty members attended.  The food, the open bar and the disc jockey were all outstanding.  A big thank you to all those who made the night so memorable.

We thank all you ladies for your support.  You have been with us for these sixteen years.  From New York to Las Vegas, you’ve made these trips enjoyable.

We will be planning our trips and outings for 2008 at our January meeting. If there are any trips you think we would be interested in taking, please let us know.

To the ladies in the funds office and the ladies in the union office, I send all of you a great big thank you.  With your help you made it all worthwhile and so easy getting the newsletter out each month.

As we approach the Yuletide season, I wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a happy and safe New Year.

Goldy's Joke of the Month:
The wise old Mother Superior was dying.  The nuns were gathered around her bed.  She asked for a little warm milk to sip, so a nun went to the kitchen to get some.  Remembering a bottle of whiskey received as a gift the previous Christmas, she opened it and put a generous amount into the warm milk.

Mother drank a little, then a little more, then before they knew it,
 she had consumed the whole glass down to the last drop.

“Mother, Mother” the nuns cried, “Give us some wisdom before you die!”

She raised herself up in bed with a pious look on her face and pointing out the window she said, “Don’t sell that cow!!!”  

I hope to see you at our next meeting on December 18th..
