Game Time

Saturday, June 18th, 2011

Welcome back!

It is getting to be game time on t he television. Everywhere you look there are sports games that are showing. Anything from golf to baseball might be on.

If you are not a sports fan, you are in trouble unless you have a lot of videos, or have Nintendo ds games that you can watch.

As for me, I have videos that I cannot even remember what movies I do have. I have a favorite few (but still want more of them), and a lot that my husband likes also. I guess that game time to us means MOVIES>

I hear wedding bells

Saturday, June 18th, 2011

There are some people in our church who are getting married.

There had been a hold up for a while, but now the ball is rolling. I have no idea what they would like for wedding gifts, but I have a feeling that bridal lingerie would go over great.

David and Tosha do love each other a lot and the people at church are happy for them. Congratulations Guy and Gal!

Thank God

Friday, June 3rd, 2011

I thank God that my husband and I do NOT have to worry about planning a funeral for his mom.

With all that she went through in the past month, it has been totally amazing. The type of arrangement that she had wanted did not leave any room for custom floral arrangements for a funeral or even for her grave site. I am thoroughly happy that it has become not necessary.

The only custom floral arrangements that my husband and I could think of were for her to be alive and to enjoy the flowers. She dearly loves flowers and would like to have flowers planted outside of her front window. If I could, I would do just that. However, I do not have a ‘green thumb’. While she was in the hospice, I brought in something unusual that she ended up loving. I had gotten a 3 foot long rose that the flower head was almost a foot across. I sprayed some rose linen spray on it, brought it into her hospice room and her face lit up.

I would love to give her a bunch of living and flourishing plants with a lot of bows on them. She would enjoy that. Me too. :)

Pet peeves

Friday, April 22nd, 2011

Do you have any pet peeves?

Aw come on, every one does. With me one of the peeves that gets to me the most is to be interrupted by someone who wants to comment on what I am saying when I have not even finished talking, yet.

If they have something to say about what I am talking about, they have not even been listening to begin with. Unfortunately for them, I do have a loud voice and will do my best to get them to listen. Does that make me stubborn…. I’d say yes.

I bet that is some else’s pet peeve. :P

At least

Saturday, April 9th, 2011

At least, no one at church noticed the wierd way that I was wearing my clothes.

Of course, if I had been going to school…well, lets just say that the teacher would have thought that I had left my mind at home that day. If I was taking courses for online business degrees, no one would have seen me so dis-arrayed. (Is that a word?)

Anyway, I hope that I check myself out better next time, I usually do not fit in the ‘in’ group after all. Just think with online business degrees, you do not have to be fashionable.:)

Inside-out

Monday, April 4th, 2011

Guess what I did?

I went to church ‘in style’. It was totally by accident that it happened that way. Went to church, had a great time, made it home and discovered that I had been wearing my clothes inside-out.

I WAS IN STYLE. What do you think about that? :D

Dandelion

Monday, March 28th, 2011

Dandelion, dandelion, glowing so bright, with your little heads nodding in the sunlight.
Why it is that you don’t glow when the light is gone, mom did not like you much when you were in her lawn.
Get some running water, pluck those yellow flowers, pat them dry with paper towels, then dredge with seasoned flour.
Fry them in some cooking oil ’til they are golden brown. Eat them up ’til they are gone, your tummy will not frown.

Okay, I know - bad poetry. I am serious about the dandelion flower heads, though. When they are fixed as mentioned in the ‘poem’ they have a great taste. If you like fried mushrooms, you might like some fried sunshine.

My sis and I did that a while ago. It took about 2 years for that neighborhood to get some dandelions back. Talk about weed control. Too bad we did not know how to fix the greens or the root. I’ve heard that they are edible, too.

When I was still in grade school, we were told to talk about what we had done during the summer. Mom and I had spent our time working on her garden and lawn. She did not appreciate the dandelion very much. There were so many of those yellow flowers showing in her lawn that she created a new name for each one she dug up. I had the chance to tell the teacher that we both spent our time digging up ‘damdelions’. The teacher explained that that was not the right name for the flower/weed. I explained that mom called them that as she dug them up.

I understand, now, why she grinned. :)

Camping?

Wednesday, March 9th, 2011

Summer is around the corner.

If you are thinking about going camping and you have an RV, you also need to think about getting rv insurance.

Not only do you need to think about insurance, but you should also think about the last time that you used your RV.

Did you clean it out? Did you leave some things in it and forget they were there. Now is the time to think about these things before the days comes and you find the old veggies that have now been turned into penicillin cultures just waiting to be found. :)

Babies

Friday, February 25th, 2011

When I was younger, I used to dream about having babies. I would think of all the baby keepsakes, clothes (some of them are real cute), pictures.

Of course since then I have grown up and realize that sometimes things do not happen the way that we would think they should.

I do have a loving husband. We have a place to sleep, food to eat, pets that love us, transportation. We are doing okay so far.

Now we/I talk diets

Saturday, February 19th, 2011

When I grew up, there was only one way to diet. Change you food intake.

These days, people can also go to lipozene reviews, exercise, injections, liposuction…the list goes on.

Of course, if you cannot exercise, it limits your choices. If you are diabetic, it also limits your choices. The diabetic diet is just balanced food. Your body, after the onset of diabetes, does not process food the same way that it used to do.

My main problem is that the word diet has the word die in it. Diet is also a four letter word. There are good four letter words - love, food, cars, etc.
