Back Up

You never know when a computer is going to crash.  You hope that some of the warning signs are false and you are just having a bad day.  Needless to say, I've been in the position of loosing all the data on my hard drive.  Not funny and neither is it when a company experiences the same.  There is the  cloud backup solutions  company which you can utilize for such situations.  Their services are certain to be valuable to any company.

Texas Heat

I'm having to keep an eye on my chest freezer.  The heat is playing it hard on the fridge and the freezer.  I'm not able to keep them very cool because I don't run the A/C anymore than I absolutely have to.  The electric bill will be high even with the way I use it at night.  I only turn it on during the day when I can't stand the heat because of the triple digit temperatures.  Looks like today will be another hot one, and I'm worried that this heat has killed the compressor on my freezer.  If so, then there goes my food and the expense of buying another freezer soon.  The life of an older person who is on a fixed income is not easy and always takes more money than we make.

Me


I still had a cloth diaper on, so I couldn't have been over a year to a year and a half old.  Yes, this is me, when I was a little baby girl.  Nita Kaye was born in December 1944 and this is a picture of me the next year up and walking like a big girl.  Note the curly hair, which is natural and still with me even today, many years later.

Drought

If not corn, then soybeans?  It may turn out to be that way because of the drought.  The corn crops have been hit hard with this year's drought.  Soybeans, may rally if we can get cooler weather and some rain.  This will give us some form of help, but we still have lost the corn.
In my garden, not only did lack of rain cause my corn to be bad, the grasshoppers devoured what there was to get.

Seat Belts

 I know you have heard about seat belts during car crashes.  Sometimes they get stuck and you can't get them to unlock during dire emergencies.  It's a good idea to invest in the  seat belt cutter at MartorUSA.com   for such situations.  I know that it would be an awful feeling if I were locked in a car that was on fire or going under water.

Rain

Everyone is getting rain but our town.  Man, that's not nice and we sure do need it.  If nothing else to cool down the hot temperatures that we've been having.  What a horrible time it's been just trying to stay cool.  Texas is just that way every year in the summer.

Somehow.........

I see no end to the constant battle with drugs and alcohol additions here in our country.  It's become a way of life around the world.  Many people have lost their lives to this stuff and the way it looks we are in for a long haul.  Every week you hear of someone coming up dead or maimed from over indulgence of some illegal substance or drink.  I'm sure there's an answer somewhere, but how will we get past the problems to the answer?

Repairs

My son live in Virginia Beach, VA and when that fast moving storm hit recently it tore plenty of homes apart.  Somehow, his family wasn't one of the victims where the storms hit.  I realize that loss of power is a huge problem during the summer months, and your health can suffer.  Repairing the disaster areas has been expensive with the need for replacement windows virginia beach   along with  other units to make properties usable once again.  More information can be found at the link above.

Children

It's been the same recently and I just can't understand how they can keep the pace?  They throw their fate to the wind and then try to fall back on family members to bail them out of the situations they are in.  I realize it's a part of life where the children learn what they should so that, when our day to pass on arrives, they will be ready to face life without us.  I don't see this happening for many children in today's world.  They are too dependent on their parents and extended families.  It's a shame what we have allowed our children to become because we fear the laws and government rule.

Church

How often have you found yourself sitting in one of many  church pews chairs  at a local church?  Today you find that some churches have installed soft cushions to keep your bones from going through the wood seats.  The wood pews have been around for years and are very uncomfortable to sit on at long periods of time.  Being involved in church activity brings about decisions of how the church can maintain and stay upgraded. 

Mom

This is one of the few times I will ever have of her eating, because she has stopped and we had to have a feeding tube installed.  She will drink water during the day and snack on things she really wants, but to intake a meal or even try is something she balks at.  She was in the hospital in this picture.  This was one of the many trips she made last year before we put her in the nursing home for special care.  It's just too bad that she chose to go this route, because she was so active before.

Welding

 There are special equipment needed for certain jobs, and getting  welding jackets at bakers gas  is just one of the many products that are a part of this.  I have noticed that this company specializes in many types of clothing as well as other equipment for heavy duty jobs.  For information about this type of clothing, click on the above link and look around.
