As long as you avoid PetMeds or whatever the name of the one that advertises on TV is because they keep meds past their due dates and don't store them properly. They've gotten in trouble with the FDA at least 5 times in the past 3 years for the same sort of thing.

We skipped a month of heartworm meds(heavy coated dogs - I defy a blood sucking insect to even FIND their skin!) and I was holding my breath while they were tested today.

Thanks for telling me that-I really didn't have a place in mind to order from-there seem to be quite a few of them. There is even one that advertises in the Texas Electrical Co-op magazine that comes in the mail every month-they mainly advertise stuff for livestock, but have cat and dog meds, too...

Jennifer Willbanks looks like she has ingested too much Lithium-shouldn't someone check her blood levels to make sure she is not toxic? And why am I not surprised that a space cadet like her would buy a set of fake boobs to enhance her ego? And no, fake ones do not move naturally-I have a friend who let her first husband bought her a pair of trophy tits (then left her for a woman half his age), and her second husband hates them-says all they do wis point up at the ceiling when they're enjoying their marital pleasures, and they are as hard as the rubber ball you give your dog to play with...

Try the 3 Hour Diet book that's out now. I just finished it, it looks promising. And he says you still need desert!

Accustomed to the veneer of noise, to the shibboleths of promotion, public relations, and market research, society is suspicious of those who value silence.

I've turned off my answering machine and have created a "form letter" to inform my sister's correspondents of her death. My pastor assures me that this is called the "crucible" phase of grief and it normally lasts about six weeks-- which is when my vacation starts.

I think when a grown woman starts dodging calls from her own mother she's reached a new low in human relations...but on the upside, I am having a calypso/latin dance party with my grandbaby as often a I can get my hands on her and Sam Adam's Summer Ale is available again...

Oh, also a little weirded out by my daily devotion... see red notes:

When they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and some scribes arguing with them. When the whole crowd saw him, they were immediately overcome with awe, and they ran forward to greet him. He asked them, "What are you arguing about with them?" Someone from the crowd answered him, "Teacher, I brought you my son; he has a spirit that makes him unable to speak; and whenever it seizes him, it dashes him down; and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid; and I asked your disciples to cast it out, but they could not do so." He answered them, "You faithless generation, how much longer must I be among you? How much longer must I put up with you? Bring him to me." And they brought the boy to him. When the spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth. Jesus asked the father, "How long has this been happening to him?" And he said, "From childhood. It has often cast him into the fire and into the water, to destroy him; but if you are able to do anything, have pity on us and help us." Jesus said to him, "If you are able!--All things can be done for the one who believes." Immediately the father of the child cried out, "I believe; help my unbelief!" When Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "You spirit that keeps this boy from speaking and hearing, I command you, come out of him, and never enter him again!" After crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse, so that most of them said, "He is dead." But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he was able to stand. When he had entered the house, his disciples asked him privately, "Why could we not cast it out?" He said to them, "This kind can come out only through prayer."

Which includes this... God stays near, even in the silence of our pain. Families coping with suicide

Beautiful......."God did not offer quick answers or press me to speak. We simply walked together in silence. It was prayer."

The night Alice killed herself, I asked her where the thoughts she expressed to me were coming from...(power to kill with thoughts, etc.) She had lived with this for 20 years--she answered me "From Hell." She came to live with me when she set herself on fire--(I will never forget the smell of burning hair and skin) and she died in water, and she craved my prayers - she asked for prayer daily. I repeat - I am a little weirded out! Especially since my last words to her were from Solomon 8: 6

Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm; for love is strong as death, passion fierce as the grave. Its flashes are flashes of fire, a raging flame.

7 Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If one offered for love all the wealth of one's house, it would be utterly scorned.

It has become an issue with me that whenever I read a scripture that begins: "Gird your loins..." I am on red alert, because God is about to move in my life...I am not afraid, but I am rolling up my sleeves and looking sharp about me...I know that the power of His Goodness is greater than anything I have imagination to anticipate, but He never said I would enjoy the process of being shaped by Him...only that I need to put on my armor and pay attention to pleasing my enlisting officer...

The latest "shibboleth" in a long stream of "shibboleths" or in other words labeling seems to be the "Religious Right Wing" and "those who would make this a Theocracy".

I don't want a Theocracy, do you? After all, all you have to do is look to the middle east to see what happens when you become one.

Got to get my days and nights in order! Days have light outside and nights have lights inside! I wonder if I turned off the computer, if that would help?
