Lost Family

We lost a member of our family, last month and he will be sorely missed.  My brother in law, Don passed away with cancer, and we have a hole in our family.  

RIP MERLE

April 6, 2016, Merle Haggard lost his fight with health problems.  Here is a wonderful tribute to a great singer.  May he rest in peace!

So It Is Christmas

Here we are in the middle of December, with only a few days till Christmas and people are running around getting things together for the big day.  I've lost interest in most of the season trimming's since the kids are gone and grown.  It's just almost another day, since they all have separate lives and live in different areas of the USA. 
I have one person who I make efforts for and he's my man, who I live with daily.  There are at least 3 of my kids and one of his that we send gift cards to.  Other than that, it's a day we spend together, being thankful for each other and the time we have together.
I'll cook if that's what we decide to do, but if we go for the other, then we will drive to a local restaurant and have our Christmas meal.  There is at least one or two that are open on Christmas day.  Lucky them!  We will give each other the gifts that we decided on and get ready for the coming day, when he will head back to work.  I suppose I'm lucky in a way, because there are many people who will not have anyone or anything to spend or do with this Christmas.  We have a home, plenty of food, cars and the bills are paid on time.  That's a good thing in itself, considering the times I wondered where the next paycheck would come from and if there would be enough for food.  Yes, we have a good life, and I am thankful for the blessings I have daily.
So, with this said, I want to send wishes for a Merry Christmas to you and yours, this year and remember the "Reason For The Season", JESUS CHRIST.

Soul Shaping

Down through the last few years, I've come to read many articles by Jeff Brown  who I learned of through a mutual friend and writer.  His books and articles give insight to the real meaning of love and inner happiness.  Take the time to join him on Facebook or invest in one of his great books.

The Soldier

 You call your girlfriend and set a date for tonight.
 He waits for the mail to see if there is a  letter from home.  
 
 You hug and kiss your girlfriend, like you do everyday.
 He holds his letter close and smells his love's perfume.
 
 You roll your eyes as a baby  cries.
 He gets a letter with pictures of his new child, and wonders if they'll ever  meet.

Not Again

It seems as though my life is always full of people who just don't stay around very long.  Meeting a person who you find full of the things that you want to be around and then them leaving you after you get accustomed to having them around is hard to deal with. 
Yesterday, we found out that my partner of 1 year, may have throat cancer.  His blood pressure is high and the doctor raised the level of his meds for that during the same visit.  COPD is also a factor of this health problem which he developed recently.  I have no choice but to stand with him during this awful time.  At the present he is feeling the effects of finding out and accepting what is.  I can't be anything but close by to support him, when he needs me.  Loosing someone so soon in the relationship is not going to be a good thing.  I hope he can beat this problem and be healthy so we can be together for a long time.

My Man

Sat for 3 hours in the ER last night with my man, to make sure he would be ok.  He had high BP and was sick to his stomach after they gave him some meds.  It took several minutes for his BP to come down, and during that time, he was throwing up all that was in his stomach.  They had to give him something for the nausea as well. 
Now, I wonder if the BP meds will cause him to have problems with our private times as a couple?  Right now we are just trying to get his body accustomed to the meds and his stomach settled.

What Did You Get?

Well, it was better than I expected.  At least he got the silk rose for me on his own without me having to say anything.  I wasn't expecting anything, since he has built the reputation of not thinking that days like that are special.  So, it was nice to find that his idea's were starting to change a bit.  That helped the Valentines's feeling for the evening, but that was all there was.  No romantic times were had.  Damn it!

1 Year

It's been one year today, since I met my man.  It was on a Sunday evening, so actually the day involved would have been yesterday.  But since today is the 10th it is the date we met last year.  I know that he will be tired when he gets home, and not feel like doing anything.  To top it all off he's had a bad cold the last few days.  That takes away from the fun as well.  I guess I should have taken my queue from his earlier actions regarding holiday's and their importance to him.  Today, will be like any other to him and I might as well accept it.  Sad though!

Awhile

Isn't it amazing the way you can go for days, weeks or even months, not hear from someone and yet, when you do, it's like the time was there at all?  I've actually seen time pass in front of my face, when I meet up with people I haven't seen in a few years.  It's sometimes hard to imagine that they would turn out to be like they are.  You know that time never stands still, and I guess that's why we all grow so damned old before we realize it.  It wouldn't hurt for it to slow down just a damn little bit.  Could help me find a few more things to do, people to meet and learn new things.

Why Me?

I'm not feeling real great this morning.  I let my feelings overflow last night when my boyfriend didn't answer my phone call.  I basically told him that it was hurting too bad to try and have a relationship with someone I can't even be around.  He's probably going to tell me that he has to work and that is something I need to understand.  Well, I do, but it only takes a couple of seconds to send a quick text on your cell phone.  That couple of seconds can mean the world to the person on the other end of the phone.  You can't leave the other person to read between the lines when you are starting a new relationship.  They need to know where you stand and how you are feeling about being in a relationship with them.  This guy is driving me crazy and I can't do a damn thing about it.

Can't Believe

In a mater of 3 short weeks, I've found a very special person.  Our lives have become a story book page.  I feel so blessed at meeting this wonderful person.  It's not often that one can find someone who just fits into your life so easily.  I'm amazed at the things we have in common and how close we've become in such a short period of time.  Everyone is teasing me, because of how I've been action.  My social buddies, are really having a game day with me.  I'm scared and excited at the same time.  I thought he was too, but am beginning to think he's not scared at all.  Wow, I'm overwhelmed.

Father

Tomorrow is Father's Day.......I want to give credit to my step-dad.  He is a nice sweet man, who has spent his last few year's with my Mom.  I give him credit for his rose colored glasses and the way he uses them.  He is so in love with my Mom, and is has to be that or pure loss of mind.  She pushes him to the very limits and he goes right along with love all in his eyes.  Is he seeing something I'm not? 
To his children:  I say you are sorry, lowdown and no good.  This doesn't give you much to be proud of does it?  After all the years' this man worked and gave you what you needed to grow up and survive, this is the way you say thank you?  I am ashamed of you and I know that your sins will not go unpunished.  Still I wish you could have loved your Father, because of those year's.  Not because you are mad at him for marrying my mother within six months of your mother's death.  He has been happy and that's something you should have wanted for him.  The only sadness he has is the loss of the love of his children.......Shame on you.

A Father?

Well, if I'd have had a father, it might have been different. So, Father's Day, is for the other people and the one's that are able to say they had or have one.
Being in life, without a dad, and wondering why, he didn't care enough to come see me or want me, was very hard. I never met him for several years, and when I finally did, he acted as if I was an alien. During his last years, I finally got his attention, and made it point to let him know, that I wanted nothing from him, financially, or otherwise. I just wanted to get to know him and visit, write and call. That's basically what happened, until he died. I went to the funeral, and showed no emotion, because there was only regret. His family actually acknowledged me and had me sit on the front row, with them at the graveside services. So all you can surmize from this is a lost cause

P

Whittling........

Do you remember back a few years ago, when the men would sit outside and take a piece of raw wood, then begin to whittle it?  I remember my grandpa, would sit out in the yard, where the shavings could drop without causing a problem, and he would wile the time away, just sitting there whittling on that piece of wood.  Sometimes, he would spend days on one piece or put it up and go back to it a day or so later.  Depended on the weather, sometimes and on his mood other times.  He would whittle it right down to a bare thin piece, only to cut it up into tiny pieces and start on another piece, if he had one handy.
People don't do things like this anymore, because their lives are full of things that the modern world has delivered up for them to do.

Loose Belly Fat......

How often have you heard someone mention, how they wish they could loose that belly fat? It's a common problem, especially for women, after childbirth. I've had this problem for years. It would be nice to be able to afford a tummy tuck. Since I can't, then I must check out other routes about how to lose belly fat and see if I can benefit from that. Looking through these website's you can find many different ways to accomplish this feat.
