WHAT POLITICAL PARTY IS AGAINST WOMEN? SAY WHAT?

I am not sure which party is being declared the worst in the war on women. One day it is one of them then the next day it is the other. One young woman raised a fair ruckus over the Catholic Church saying they would not accept Obama Care paying for condoms since they do not believe in either sex outside marriage or avoiding pregnancy. All of the above is only ya-ya anyway. The obvious truth of the matter is that women are suffering and it is they who are bringing it. Oh read the rest before you... Sign in to see full entry.

MAY THIS BE A BLESSED WEEK

We are enjoying some much cooler weather and that in itself is a great blessing. This has been such a hot summer. It has been one where doing anything outside was almost unthinkable. We also had a warm winter, so we will see what comes next. Our Saturday dinner and visit with friends went very well. We have become so wrapped up in being busy that we have slowed down in entertaining even this small effort was a treasure since I had not done it in such a long time. I read a lot of you that I did... Sign in to see full entry.

TODAY IS SATURDAY

I have cleaned the front porch, watered the herbs and done the laundry. Now I only have a few things to tidy up before I begin getting ready for dinner guest tonight. I am looking forward to it so much. I am doing good old easy: Ground Sirloin, with chopped bell peppers, onion, smoked paprika, garlic, salt and pepper blended into the meat. Each person gets two steaks in one... One is flat and sides pulled up a bit, fill it with grated white cheddar and mozzarella another stake is place on top... Sign in to see full entry.

Are You Putting These Dementia Causing Chemicals in Your Body?

I see too much Dementia and Alzheimer's not to bring out this infromation. Justi Dana Larsen | August 14, 2012 More Knowledge is power. But in some instances, one can’t help but wonder whether ignorance is bliss. According to a recent study from the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, a common ingredient used to produce the buttery flavor and smell in microwave popcorn, margarine, candy and baked goods is now being linked to Alzheimer’s.

SOMETIMES YOU STAND SOMETIMES YOU FALL

Thank you all for being so patient with me. I have been a bit on the slow side for a few days. I have been good about answering my comments until a few days ago it seems like all stops were pulled and I had to run full throttle and still could not catch up with all the things I have promised to finish. I wonder sometimes if others get all booked up when they do not even have jobs. I am retired and hardly have an empty minute. I love to read Kabu and see the two of them are out scooting around...

IT HAPPENED EVEN BEFORE I WAS BORN

I am going to try another old poem, hope you will allow me to be lazy I haven't much choice today. Once upon a time We all know that was Longer than anyone can Remember or likely count Stuff went on then, lots of it God created the Heavens and the Earth Lucifer led an uprising took a third of The Angels and marched against God God threw the lot of them out Down to earth he tossed them They were still ugly and corrupt They made all they touched evil God is powerful He switched the poles Turning...

WILL IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

You know I have not been doing much politicking lately. I have seen such ugliness that I have been totally disgusted. I do like Romney's choice for VP, Paul Ryan I am totally sick of what is happening to this country. I will do every thing in my power to bring it back. This post is not about genealogy; however, if you are more American than I then your name must be something like Chief Long Feather.

TODAY ONE DUI CAN HAUNT YOU FOR YEARS UNLESS YOU COME TO GRIPS WITH IT NOW

I have not worked in the capacity of a visiting jail minister on a weekly basis for some time. But back when I did my heart ached for all the inmates who could be or have been out if they had known and followed a few rules. A basic ignorance hovers over them and this keeps them there longer. I wrote this poem a long time ago it seems. I don't remember sharing it, if I have please forgive me for bringing it back.

I AM INVITING YOU TO PARTICIPATE WHEREVER YOU LIVE

I have a prayer request. There's a lady I've known all my life. She's very sick. On top of that, she's being abused by those to whom she has given everything. Lies about her abound, and seem to come from all sides. Just breaks my heart. Seems there's nothing I can do alone but maybe, if we join in and lift her up together, we can heal her. She's well over 230 years old, but way too young to die. Her name is 'America' and I love her and have always been proud of her. Take time to say a prayer for... Sign in to see full entry.

WHO DID YOU SAY YOU ARE?

Yesterday was such a wonderful day. First we did our services for the Nursing Home. That proved to be a blessing beyond what I could have expected. I think I have written about Barbara, she had physical disabilities and great difficulty in talking, but she was sharp as a tack. Some of you may not know what I am talking about but if you are a born again Christian you will. Barbara was the second of the women out there to come to Jesus Christ through the Salvation prayer. I don't know how old she... Sign in to see full entry.

THERE IS A LOT TO THIS LOVE BUSINESS

I talk to a lot of people who know nothing of the Bible and I talk with a lot who have read and read and still know little and then there are those who know they will never know it all and just enjoy reading and growing in the Lord. Some things slide out of my mind like warm butter and others stick with me like a bug in the glue pot. I have never been able to understand why people doubt God and have a hard time believing all the work of Jesus. First if you look around at the Universe or... Sign in to see full entry.

THIS WAS AN UPDATE ON THE 10 COMMANDMENTS FOR ME HOW ABOUT YOU?

1] Prayer is not a "spare wheel" that you pull out when in trouble, but it is a "steering wheel" that directs the right path throughout the journey. 2] So why is a Car's WINDSHIELD so large & the Rear View Mirror so small? Because our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE. So, Look Ahead and Move on. 3] Friendship is like a BOOK. It takes a few minutes to burn, but it takes years to write. 4] All things in life are temporary. If going well, enjoy it, they will not last forever. If going wrong,... Sign in to see full entry.

WHY DO I LIKE THIS PLACE?

It appears every time I come on here to read we have someone else missing. Why? Is our financial state a part of this? Is it because not enough people are reading? Is it boredom or discontentment? Why are so many people leaving so often now? One of the things that has changed with the exception of a few is the lack of response to the comments. I loved that. Once there were so many people on here you could take more time than you could afford just reading and looking at the back and forth... Sign in to see full entry.

STOP DRINKING THE STUFF USE IT TO GOOD PURPOSES

Who Knew?????? 1. To remove a bandage painlessly, saturate the bandage with vodka The stuff dissolves adhesive. 2. To clean the caulking around bathtubs and showers, fill a trigger-spray bottle with vodka, spray the caulking, let set five minutes and wash clean. The alcohol in the vodka kills mold and mildew. 3. To clean your eyeglasses, simply wipe the lenses with a soft, clean cloth dampened with vodka. The alcohol in the vodka cleans the glass and kills germs. 4. Prolong the life of razors by...

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

For years I have heard people talking about how Christians do this and do that and don't do this and don't do that. That they are fake. That they are only in it for the money. They are ignorant. Oh well that matters to few when they are hungry, need clothes, need help with children, need whatever it is they can't afford. There are millions of Christian groups who are giving out all the different sorts of help others need with no request for payment, no need to be a Christian to receive no...

SORRY I HAVE BEEN AWAY SO LONG

I am still having a bit of trouble with aging and/or illness. It will all be better soon, hopefully. 300% increase in dosage of Potassium and measurement one week later shows almost no difference. Some tell me the low levels of Potassium are associated with fibromyalgia which I have had for 17-18 years. I have had far less down time with it in the last few years from symptoms we know to be those of fibro, but these I have now don't stop. We are beginning a new batch of tests tomorrow. We will...

CALM DOWN LITTLE VAMP THE QUEEN IS HOME

This is our precious Miss Mercy. She is a beautiful ordinary cat. She is being a great example of a Kitty Mom to an adopted Kitty Baby. This is my first experience with connecting Mercy with another cat because we got her as a pair together with a little sister and the secretary in the church behind us simply stole her and took her out to her farm. We did not know that was what had really happened. Her name was Grace and she loved to go over to the church office, they fed her and petted her... Sign in to see full entry.

THE GIRL HAS A NAME

She is growing, getting into all things not nailed down; she swings on those. We have named her Vamp and we truly love her. She has become the new charge of our older cat Mercy. She is training this little one and sometimes it looks as if it may get wild but hasn't thus far. This one is totally a house cat, but Mercy is inside-outside. She stands by the door when she wants to go out, we let her. Vamp thought this is the way it is done. Mercy placed herself beside the door and waited, here came... Sign in to see full entry.

YESTERDAY WAS SUCH A DAY

This day was not about us but it was a lot about this beautiful young woman standing beside me. Yesterday George and I helped her bring her only child a son into the world of Teenagers! It was his thirteenth birthday. I was so blessed to be able to share this day with my daughter. It brought back so many memories. This bash was held at a local Pizzeria that has been an excellent one for 40 years. The day brought back so many memories for George and me. Here were her childhood, teenage and...

SHE DID IT ALL BY HERSELF

Thank all of you for your very caring comments. I am much better. But it was a bummer for five days. Of course you all know that I am very upset with the statement of an idiot that has absolutely no concept of what the real America is, has been for two hundred years. I have a little background on a lady, no not just a woman but a lady that did it alone. For Obama to say that nobody made a business on their own but needed the government to help is just ignorance on steroids. I knew a woman who... Sign in to see full entry.
