I HOPE TO SHARE GOOD NEWS SOON

Finally George put his foot down. He is so easy to get along with and a joy to live with but when he says 'Okay that's it", he means it. He got tired of the blood pressure readings, my being tired, etc. He called the doctor for an immediate appointment instead of much later this month. She saw me immediately this morning at 9:45. George went with me and he did a lot of the talking, nicely but firmly. I am not one to complain to the doctor they have all the data can't they come to a rational... Sign in to see full entry.

SOMETIMES JUST A CHANGE IN ATTITUDE CHANGES A LOT

I have not felt well at all for six days now. I have given in to my feelings and spent a good portion in bed. I am doing all I am expected to do from my doctor still this week too often the bp has hovered around 200/100 and that is a danger zone. I have spent a lot of time praying and resting. Finally I decided not to worry. I am doing all that appears to be available for me to do about it. Those numbers do not last for days just hours in the day. If they went for days I would go to the...

THERE COMES A TIME WHEN IT IS ALL TOO LATE

There are times when you work with someone from a distance or in an avenue through someone else. George had given guitar lessons to a man who swapped work when George had it as pay. George more or less tried to Shepard the man a bit. He had such a good heart but there were times when he went totally overboard on some things and it all fell apart. A couple of years ago he rescued this woman who was living with someone near his home and she apparently had been steeling from the person to feed her... Sign in to see full entry.

THIS AND THAT

We had a late lunch today but it was so good. We are looking to make new living arrangements. I have cooked and done all sorts of food preparation for many years and loved it. It is amazing in the last year or few months less I have become unable to do meals in a reasonable manner. I take too long and it tires me so. We have a five bedroom house full of our furniture, ours, my mother's furniture and my grandmother's furniture. We have lots of friends and acquaintances who are artists and our...

SAY WHAT?

1. Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is. 2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong. 3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger. 4. There is great need for a sarcasm font. 5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet? 6. Was learning cursive really necessary? 7. Map Quest or Google Maps really need to start their directions on # 5. I'm pretty sure I... Sign in to see full entry.

WELL IT IS DIFFERENT

There is little need to come in each time on this blog and say I am sorry I have been away so long! I have been posting but they are things I do not have to think about. This is a nothing blog but it requires more thought some days than I have available in one time stretch. My mind is not asleep, nor is it shut down it is slower and very busy revisiting life in a lot of areas. You don't, you can't understand old age until you are personally in the throws of it. Your education will not prepare... Sign in to see full entry.

YES I DID! I MISSED ALL OF YOU!

Sorry to have been away all that long. Okay so I am pretending you were waiting with baited breath until I wrote another riveting post. Okay, okay pretense is what gave us the Yellow Brick Road and other things. Truth is I have been very busy and dealing with a few too many blood pressure spikes but I am doing well as of now! We have taken on or rather George has taken on one other project and I have been invited to do another one but I am not sure if I can do it. I may have told you that George...

THIS MAN HAS SUCH EXCELLENT TASTE

95.7 KJR Andy Rooney's thoughts on women over forty, Do you agree with him?: As I grow in age, I value women who are over forty most of all. Here are just a few reasons... why: A woman over forty will never wake you in the middle of the night to ask, “What are you thinking?” She doesn’t care what you think. If a woman over forty doesn’t want to watch the game, she doesn’t sit around whining about it. She does something she wants to do. And, it’s usually something more interesting. A woman over...

WELL IT IS JUST THAT WAY

Our town is a draw for the retired therefore we have a great population of senior citizens. It is a beautiful town, near cities and small enough to be friendly. Many efforts are made to make the seniors feel at home. We have a large facility that offers all sorts of things including a full meal, rather tasty for $1.25 daily. Games, dancing and crafting. George and I have taken on another project. A couple we know some time ago went down there to play and sing to them. A few months ago George... Sign in to see full entry.

L.D. WAS ALL HE HAD FOR A NAME AND HE CARRIED IT 101 YEARS

We lost another member of our Sunday congregation. Mr. L. D. was one of less than a half dozen men in the group. He never missed a Sunday. He and his wife came to the Home four hears ago. They shared a room and she passed away eleven months ago and he stayed on in the same room. He was a gentle man, quiet, well groomed always wearing blue jeans and a an Izod shirt. He was clean shaved and kept a good hair cut. L.D. was not given to words more than greetings which he gave and received freely with... Sign in to see full entry.

NEVER THOUGHT OF IT THAT WAY BEFORE

I looked at the post I have just replaced and thought oh my that is so old and boring. Immediately I felt almost like finding a place to rest and perhaps cry. I thought is boring an automatic appendage to old? You know I think in my case it may very well be. So many things I once enjoyed doing I now find a boring thought even, much less an attempt at doing. One was playing bridge. When I was a little girl I spent a lot of time with an aunt and uncle who had no children. They had a very active... Sign in to see full entry.

SOCIAL MEDIA...WHAT THE ??????

There was a time when one could check out the Society Page of the news paper to read the day's happenings of the Socialites. I confess I read all this at about fifteen even perhaps to eighteen. I found other interests. I cannot tell you how I detest the thought of putting out all my nothings on a place called face book. I could care less if you have a pink old fashion lawn mower. You see I think that is your choice, I think you should be able to exercise that choice and even tell others about it... Sign in to see full entry.

MAY GOD BLESS YOU, YOUR MOTHERS AND YOUR DAUGHTERS

Every living human being has a common factor that varies as much one from another as they are different one from another. No it is no Life, it is we all have been born of a mother who is a MOTHER! As I am a mother from a mother who had a mother and all the way back, I also am a mother of a mother; therefore I claim a tad of experience. First let me share with you a bit of my experience. Best we can do as a mother we will not be perfect. We are far better than the children see us. How do I know... Sign in to see full entry.

WHAT IS YOUR SOCIAL BENT

I was skimming through face book and saw a very biting post where someone said they were pledging never to write about politics again, they were pledging never to read about politics again on face book. Their reasoning was that this was a Social Media Outlet and not a rant space. I agree it should not be a rant space at least toward those on the space. It can be a rant against what you feel strongly about in my opinion. But not wanting to be offensive and wanting to see where I really fit into... Sign in to see full entry.

IT IS TIME TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THIS ONE FOR SURE

Today was one of those days like I remember visiting Grandpa and Grandma long long ago. Everything appeared farfetched but it was okay! I loved to go to their house and I had the privilege of that often. They had a big house up the road about what would be half a city block from us. The road was powder sand and I loved walking bare foot in it, feeling the cool where the trees shaded the road. It was just such a day. I went up to the porch where Grandpa was rocking. I was always polite to people,... Sign in to see full entry.

THINGS CHANGE AS THEY REMAIN THE SAME

The Garden is the name of the wing for the alzhaimer's patients where we visit. This is the place where the dear lady became totally confused a couple of weeks ago. Today she was completely fine and sang with George the whole time. I find their far-out moments precious not in a fun ha ha way, but in a way that allows me to know them better and love them more for having lost the precious memories good or bad. Everything in your life belongs to you whether it is good or bad. We want to only call... Sign in to see full entry.

MORE ON BLOOD MOON

The Blood Moon I wrote about in 1493 was the last one before the 20th century. They have always been signs to the Jews. At the time of those Red Moons King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella were throwing all Jews out of Spain. There was a Jew in the Queen's favor, Christopher Columbus he was given funds to find the treasures of the Orient but found the Americas instead. All the original leaders of the US knew the value of a relationship with both God and Israel. In the 20th century there were two... Sign in to see full entry.
