I really wish I could hear from you today.   Lots of days,... but this one in particular would have been really helpful.   I'm going to be a grandmother before the middle of tomorrow !   So there are many thoughts and feelings to roll around in the unknown many hours between now and the next 24 hours.   I would have loved to hear your warm voice ( Read more... )

My Life's Verse

Some people have a favorite Bible verse that touches their heart, or is very dear to them.  Others have what is sometimes called a Life Verse.  This is the one verse they are claiming as their modus operandi, or sums up their goal in life, or whatnot.

Today I have just found my Life's Verse.   It's not a Bible verse per se, but I'm ( Read more... )

 Condiment Calling

Seriously, my innate stupidity knows no bounds.  I'm also a complete moron with any form of technology (one of the few things I share with my gender).

I've lived a pretty backwards life because of control, and then poverty, so it's not that surprising to me that I'm not up on the greatest and newest.   But when you can't even “ ( Read more... )

Far more than 6/10 of an hour later....  In fact, both sets of 6/10 (which is twelve tenths) took 3.5 hours out of my day ( Read more... )

 A day in the life of a poverty-stricken MORON !

My day just turned to doo-doo. Lost the internet at my house - AGAIN, so I headed out to the library. Had had nothing to eat today, since there's zero food in the house, as usual. (Those cupboards just don't magically fill themselves!) So I drove thru BK. Forgot I have to park and use two hands to ( Read more... )

 Driving thoughts for today -

Question 1:   Where exactly IS Sesame Street?  You know they never told us.   Day in and day out that stupid song PLEADED for an answer.   “Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?”   (Or maybe they were just the annoying type who answered that question with “Yes, I can.”)

Question 2:   Is the Count ( Read more... )

I lost my virginity today.
 I have now joined the 21st century ranks of those who send text messages.  Whoo hoo !   About time, eh ?   I only had texting ability on my cell phone plan for less than a month, and I wanted my first time to be special.   Doesn't every girl want her first time to be special and meaningful ?

I wanted to send the first ( Read more... )

 Why being a Balloon Artist might get you the job - at another career.

I was reading a Yahoo Finance article today, about how some companies ask really hard questions during their job interviews. The article actually rated many large corporations based on their reputations for stumping the job applicants.   financiallyfit.yahoo.com/finance/article- ( Read more... )

 Those of my FB friends who are NOT balloon artists, check out this news article with pics of life-sized dinosaur skeletons, all made from balloons!  (This is a friend of ours - James and me)

Good Morning, Lord!
Sounds a little silly, but today I am thankful to have located a hot water bottle and that the quilt shop has gotten my pattern in.
Bring on the good deed making!   And please help me master my procrastination.  Thanks.

(Whodathunk that the lowly hot water bottle would become so hard to find?  I am SO a throwback to a ( Read more... )
