I LOVE THE SOUTH
These are flowers from our yard. The large pink-red are Camellias they are the State flower for Alabama and always bloom early when we really need something pretty.

I'LL TAKE TWO!
Okay so I wrote just last night, and today I am writing again because I am sure I shall not have the time this week to write much or at least almost sure. Today was such a blessing I have to share it. I am allowed to give the regular residents a single chocolate but not those in Alzheimer’s unite as they are more closely supervised. We can leave things for them just not administer to them. Well today was such a joy. Valentine’s Day will come before we are back with them so George and I made them...

AGE IS DUE SOME ACLAIM
All things require understanding but most things are not understood. Is wisdom always wise in the eyes of the beholder? With age comes wisdom! I really have been contemplating such a declaration as the relationship between the two, age and wisdom! My hair has lost all color; it is like a fresh snow bank on the crest of a faraway mountain. The snow is significant because it gives identity to that otherwise drab mound way out in the distance as a solid rock and not a dark cloud about to blow away....

WHAT NOW?
Sometimes there are more jobs than there are hours. It seems it has been that way at my house recently. I can’t seem to get on Blogit. I did want to bring more clarity somewhat to my last post. I am not and have never been one for inequality between men and women. I do think since it is the natural process for women to give birth it should be their right to stay home with their children if they choose. Men should not be expected to provide all for the family that the two of them could. Things...

DANG I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT
Boy did I think I was smart. I always made exceptionally good grades both school and college. Little did I know I did not know squat about life and the real living of it until the last fifteen years. I learned more from my children than they learned from me. Actually, neither is of a great deal of value. It is a societal breakdown. Somebody would have taught them good manners or they would have managed without them as such a great percentage of people are doing. As for learning to walk, talk,...

House Cleaning Day, Duh!
The weather is the most unusual here I ever remember. We had 70° weather last week and the first part of this one with tremendous rain now it is 30° with the sun shining brightly. Never thought such weather could be. I am really into house cleaning today and I am sure both my husband and the house will love that. These last few weeks have been very busy and each job left exhausted. I have slept a lot these two weeks but I am ready to go today. It has rained so much lately I have the windows open...

OH MY GOODNESS WHAT NOW
I called my daughter to ask for prayer for an issue and she discussed the events of her day with me! She is the mother of my only grandson who is very small, but tall for his age. He is a student of Karate, having won many championships. He is good in a variety of sports, an even-tempered little boy, known for being able to mix well with other children. He is very cautious about his Karate. At the age of 12, he was tri-state champion of his age group. He went into a long drawn out discussion...

I JUST FOUND A HOLE IN THE WALL
When I write about the things we do in ministry I am doing that because the causes are worthy and I want to share what is happening out here. I do not write to draw praise of any sort about being good or any of that. I am not. I am old, I cannot work all day and I can't develop a new business which is what I have always done when things of that sort are called for. We have just found a hole in the wall of need. I must say I am very glad to live in a town where the Christian community works...

THIS HAS BEEN A BUSY WEEK
Wow, what happened to this world while I was busy getting old? Is there still such a thing as being personally responsible about all the things in your life. If you owe someone you pay it. If you know something and that information is needed you give it. Is it old fashioned to just buck up and do what is right, honest and responsible? Let me begin at the top and slide down to the bottom not that it is the gutter that may be at the top these days. Our country is in such debt it is a disgrace and...

WHERE DID HE GO?
I am on a major hunt at this very moment. I am going to find George W. Bush, oh excuse me, I mean former President Bush. He has some answering to do. The following things I would like to know. Mr. Bush when you were president I could fill my little gas tank for less than $30 since you went AWOL I have paid close to $70. Are you to blame for such extravagant junk as that? If so we really need to talk. When you were president I cold buy regular groceries for a weak at around $35 or less. If I...

WHAT? NOT EVEN THAT?
Nothing colossal happened here today, yesterday or lately. Oh my gas bill doubled and surely that had something to do with our having a couple of weeks around 70 degrees, ya think? There was not any exciting news, a little snow it came drifting down like tiny white feathers but no snow on the ground, none! Nobody came to repair the dryer yet. My house looks somewhat like a Chinese laundry with all the dryers down. No lines outside and it is too cold to do that one. I am really blond at this...

This is still Blogit
I came here some eight or nine years ago and I guess I shall continue here as long as I am able to type my little blogs. It was very different in many aspects and yet has remained the same in the most valuable form. To me the most valuable form is that people from any and all levels of education, culture, wealth or any other measure of supposed value can come on here and write what they want to speak about, usually without fear. Of course, all we write will not be liked by all writers. All...

OUT OF THE ORDINARY
All sorts of weather records have been set in our area this year. Of course when we look around the last ten or so years have been incredibly different all over the world than in the past. We can all speculate and there is no evidence that Science has a better bead on the reasons than many of an ordinary bent. I know I have spoken about our little town being almost an Island or is a peninsula with only one highway going out that is not going over water. That one highway would mean an incredible...

I HAD COMPANY TODAY
Today was a special day. We had visitors. That is a cold or formal way of saying we had a wonderful surprise. My daughter and grandson came to visit. They have never just popped in on me. My children always called to see if there was anything in the world more important than a visit from them so why change now? I loved it. We sat and talked for such a long time, had tea and homemade bread with country butter and a bit of strawberry/fig jam. Just us girls, Grandson and Papa George did not partake...

OH WELL THIS IS REALLY WHAT I MEANT, OR WAS IT? WHAT?
I want to take another stab at getting this all clarified. It went from wow to scooby scooby do this time! BC-A did refer to this being like the instinctive mating of dogs. Wow, no dear one not in any sort of way! This is not about sexual freedoms and permissive overrides on any scale. It is about the totality of fulfilment of life. Part of it is programmed and part of it is choice and all of it is free will. Granted there are animals and humans who can not reproduce due to some physical reason....

IT IS THE FAULT OF NAUTIKOS AND KABU! YEP.
It appears I pulled the concrete in on top of me when I went through that sinkhole yesterday or the day before. Some thought I still had some raging hormones, others thought a wild array of things. Some knew where I was coming from you will see who they were. What the post was about is our natural mate choice programing and how I have come to that conclusion. I have seen some research over the years on this, sorry guys can't remember who you were, where I found you and why I didn't save all of...

DID YOU EVER THINK OF THAT?
Why is it that your brain and emotions have so little communication until we are too old to care much about what either may want from any situation? It seems to me that it is very possible that your brain sleeps when emotions are in gear. Oh, they carry on with those efforts that are remote like not falling into a manhole while looking at the muscles on that man on the construction platform. Your mind knows you two would never have anything to talk about. Your hormones those emotional ones are...

MAYBE TODAY
Have you ever stopped to think about all those dreams of yours that never really made it into fruition? You know maybe they don't fit into your dream life now, maybe they never did. I go back in my mind sometimes and think of those dreams I had about this or that and how things might have been very different had they panned out. I can imagine that some even much of my life would have been better but that is total imagination. I am right at the very place I want to be at this point in my life....
