A DAY OR SO IN MY LIFE! WHO CARES?

Today is a lovely day, the temperature has dropped and all green things appear to be breathing without a heat smother. I have had such a wonderful day. I have taken advantage of the day. I gave me permission to do what I wanted rather than one of the many things that go wanting because I am behind with all my house work. Such a lovely thing to do for yourself sometimes or actually often. My mind has been on the goings on all over the world and the desperate happenings to come. I do know that...

It is time we visited Wiley and Kabu. They have the guest room all done over and mostly it is cool and fall like up there. We are still having 90 degree weather it is too hot to sit outside and have a bite to eat or just chit chat. I love the South but this year has been a real dozy high temps, short light rains and back to dry and wilting green all around. Oh stop your complaining Justi, you are feeling well and the cat is happy George is on good shifts and all is peaceful in paradise. The Lord... Sign in to see full entry.

Hey Guys I will be right back with you soon as I get these gummy bears the size of Granny Smith apples out of my hair. If there is an alien like me on Mars or somewhere it would not be a surprise. I had a wire stuck to almost every part of my body. All of them are hooked up to some hi-tech something allowing people to see me every minute, cute as I was. Even my index finger was taped and red light shined through the tape. I will be on here again soon. I am going to see if I can really sleep in a... Sign in to see full entry.

I don't think I have been to a sleep over in 65 or 70 years. I am going tonight. You guys are invited just come along and crash the party see if I care. I have this little card and it reads sleep study appointment scheduled for etc., so I am getting in touch with all those I know so I will have friends there. You can come in your pajamas. The invitation does say we must have clean dry hair. Sure hope I don't get an unexpected hot-flash and electrocute myself. Do you suppose that is why they... Sign in to see full entry.

As I get older I keep feeling like I want to go into the front room but I am caught in the back door. This week I am making an effort to go through four generations of photographs and get rid of a lot of them. I have one child. She only wants a single or two photos of my grand parents she hasn't a clue who they were. She wants to be responsible only for a few of my parents to show them to her child. She has enough photographs of me and of her father. I have no brothers and sisters so it is toss... Sign in to see full entry.

Most of my life was spent enjoying what I could do with this or that. If I saw this how could I twist it or completely begin anew and make something either new or simply more useful. I noticed I was passing things by that I would normally repair, toss or replace with some sort of new or revamped shape. Today I took down the curtains in my bedroom and washed them. George rehung them for me and I thought these need to be changed they look so dated. I did some changing and felt good about it. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Now that I have completed the course on commercials and sex I shall get to more important things. I am about to begin the story time with the sweet old people. Grant you I am not old, just those little sugar plums I visit weekly, or so. This week-end or next they get the little booklets I have for them to write their stories down for themselves. I want them to make notes in their own hand those who can still write. Those who cannot we have made other arrangements. I will take all the little... Sign in to see full entry.

You know when I have a problem I always go to George for an answer. When I showed him my post about the bath tub he looked at me as if he was surprised that I did not understand it. He told it to me this way: It is a matter of what you are looking for. For instance if you were looking to see Big Foot you would likely use aids such as camouflage clothing, heavy boots, a camera on and on the things you would need to stay safe and get photo copy proof you had seen Big Foot. The way I look at this... Sign in to see full entry.

I just finished reading JimmyA's post where he went off on the stupidity of commercial advertising in magazines, newspapers or whatever. TAPS and KABU both acknowledged they had stopped watching T.V. commercials. George gets panicky if he hears one come on. If close enough he always mutes them. I remember in the beginning of T.V. yes way, way back there we watched for interesting or cute ones, there were some then. There is one I have seen that I never listen to but am intrigued by because it is... Sign in to see full entry.

It was delightful to see that people had read me and come back for more. Trusted Servant came by, she said looking for a new blog and found the same old thing, loll. That sorta sums up some of my life these days. It is not as moving and shaking as I would like. I am slower, less interested in a lot life has to offer and my life taste buds are smooth and refined. I am not able for one reason or another to write a blog daily. I do, however, appreciate your stopping by as often as is possible to... Sign in to see full entry.

Tomorrow I go back to see my special people. They have all sorts of activities but these are activities chosen for them, not necessarily to their own liking. I have been working for a few months now on how to get little books made it is coming together now, maybe. When I say little book I only mean in thickness. I am trying to allow each and every one who can and wants to tell me their story and we will will do our best to write if for them to have their book. This will take some time and...

I have been fortunate to have had several miracles in my life that could have been nothing else. George and I never take anything for granted. We trust God to keep His word and He does. God promises to meet our needs, He does. He knows better than we what they are. I may have written that our oven baking element simply broke into pieces last week. George had three days off work this week. That was great with all the chores he needed to attend to and replace the oven to working order was one. He... Sign in to see full entry.

Back in the day it was a real struggle to make a living on a farm. Most couples married young and began right away to have babies the more hands in the field the more profit. Of course you had to wait for them to grow a bit before they could be an economic advantage. This was especially true back in the day for share croppers before any such thing as welfare or food stamps. A farmer began the year with a contract of sorts. He was loaned an amount of money to produce a crop, feed and clothe a... Sign in to see full entry.

Our cat, Buddy, is totally a daddy's boy. I could not believe what he did tonight. Our oven element is burned out and George gets a new one prepares to insert it and it is not the right one. So he being the sweet husband he is he decides to take off the door and clean my (non self cleaning) oven. I am happy all is well but the door will not reconnect, not easily anyway. George is doing all his work with the TV at full bore watching his guitar idol Tommy Emmanuel. My dear kitty kat sits in the... Sign in to see full entry.

When I began this post I could not think of any caption because I had no idea what I was going to write about. You see I have nothing to say, yet I want to talk to you so you will not forget I am here. That is about as brilliant as my high-beams are going now. This has been another one of those weeks where I am up a couple of hours and back to bed for several. It is so disgusting most of the time I am not hurting just can't stay awake day or night and I am very weak. This too will go away. I am... Sign in to see full entry.

Yes we had a good visit with our children even if it was a short one. It is so nice to meet your children all over again every visit even when their are shorter time spaces between the visits than this one. The children are so different even the grown up mature ones. Our adult children and grandchildren see the world through different glasses than we and they don't mind looking at you as if you had lost your vision when you say something that does not fit into the trends of the day. Oh well! I... Sign in to see full entry.

I will be back to see you soon. I want to print some recipes and the results of some of them when I return. Adnohr I will be back with your oil recipe and others. We have two of George's children and one grandchild arriving about midnight. We have not seen them in three years. They will only be here for two days and off again into the wild blue yonder. Love all of you will see you soon. Sign in to see full entry.

Kabu I am sure I am much older than you but it really hurt to read of your falling over the wheel barrow, stumbling over rocks and lifting them all about in order to make your personal landscape more beautiful for you, Wiley and the whole back-stage crew of animals. I can feel your joy, your passion for doing the work you love which is a variety of things you do so well. At the age of 65 I had been in the hospital three times and each time I brought out a beautiful bundle of joy. I had worked at... Sign in to see full entry.

It is time to come back. It is time to say something, however, what I am not sure. I have missed all of you. I feel I know you very well and yet I hardly know you at all. When I feel like talking at will I feel as if I have been going to the same Pub nightly for 10 years sitting at the table with the same crowd, some there and some not on any given day. We have talked about so much of our lives but so much of our lives each one stuffs and goes home again with it until tomorrow. I have had tests... Sign in to see full entry.
