Safe

I sat here at the computer and watched as the storm unfolded across the eastern coastline of America.  In it's path was my oldest son, his family, coworkers and friends.  I kept in touch with them via cell phones and this internet.  I am thankful to say that they made it through the trying time and are safe from harm.  Their home didn't suffer any damage and my grand daughter was back at work the next day.  Since the tunnels and roads to Norfolk were closed, he wasn't able to make it to work.  In all I am happy the way things turned out for them, and wish others had been as lucky.  My prayers are with the many people who are in the devastation cause by this storm.

Darn Cat


Warm Coffee

Waters Rise

I have family in Virginia who are in the middle of this huge storm now attacking the east coast.  I fear they will have tremendous problems with their property as this storm passes through their area.  I am watching the new closely and trying to keep in touch with them as the weather reeks it's havoc on the coastal areas in the east.  Prayers are requested, please.

MP3

You know that back when I was a teenager, there wasn't anything like this.  Today, electronics has come a long way and developed mp3's to enhance enjoyment.  You can get  mp3 free books  by clicking on the link in this post and doing some research.  There's plenty to look through and I'm sure you can find something your interested in.

You Too?

I seem to have problem children.  They enjoy getting into trouble and then sitting back whining about how it's someone else's fault and they were just trying to help.  Then you have children who go head on into trouble and shrug their shoulders.  I'm in the midst of a trying time with my youngest and it's taking it's toll on me.  No matter what I do she finds a way to come back with a negative.  I'm so very tired of all the bullshit and constant worry.  When will this 33 year old grow up?

3 Blind Women

It's come down to the fact that the 3 of us are getting a bit older and our eyes are starting to give us fits.  Last week my sister's sister in law had cataract surgery, I've been needing to get this done for some time now.  Then this week my sister had to have surgery for a "detached retina" and she's in real sad shape.  In a few weeks I head to the eye doctor to get my eyes checked and then it's on to the trauma ahead which I will be facing.  I am not ready for this and keep asking myself, how did I get this old?  So, I call us the "3 blind women"......yuck!

Goat Cheese

I've seen people who enjoy doing things that would not be to the normal with others.  The making of your own "goat cheese" at home seems to be one of those things.  I found a website that gives you the recipe and the "how to" of making homemade "goat cheese".  I thought I would pass the link on to you and give you the chance to experience the fun involved in making it yourself.

Drama

This is a very bad subject to embark upon.  I hate drama and all that goes with it.  Finding peaceful surroundings after all these years, is what I relish.  To have someone destroy the peace, with their never ending dramas, is a pain in my ass.  You have children in hopes that they will grow up and use their learning years to make a good life.  There's never a true way to make sure this happens.  The young people of today's world seem to think that if they aren't doing something to get attention, then they are being seen in the public eye.  Getting notice, is full of subjects and some of the subjects are not pleasant.  I have some children who think that constant drama is the only way of life.  Needles to say, I try and put as much distance between me and these people as possible for as long as possible.

Vacations

As summer winds down, you think about the approaching months ahead.  Preparing for the coming holiday's can get expensive.  During these months you will find that things can be rated at a discount.  Peak season has gone and now you can obtain vacation information from BeachHouse.com for beachfront rentals  for the holiday's.  Consider having your family make the holiday's great and having a vacation as well.

Missing

The headlines are in the news almost daily.  Someone is missing and the possibilities are not pleasant.  It's either a child, or someone who may be well known in public circles.  It may also be a woman who has been stalked by a sexual predator.  The victim's often are found dead and this is very devastating to family, friends and coworkers.  The terrible thoughts which run through your head about how things came to happen are heart wrenching.  Help stop this violence by being more aware of people and your surroundings.

Women Stand Up


Pro-Life?


  •  I found this on an email that I received and thought it would be a good thing to give them a promotion.  I remember volunteering one "Thanksgiving" a few years back at the one here in Dallas, TX.  I and a few coworkers helped prepare a meal for the family that was staying there that week.
