This is a quick start to help Chairman, whose internet is down.
After we sang today at a nursing home, we went around and chatted with some of the residents, our audience...some old guy said to me, "Hey! You know what? You're kinda cute!" LOL!
Well I'll take my compliments wherever I find them.
How're you, Bit? Have you been naughty or nice this year? My guess: the latter, so you can expect Santa's visit:-)
I took my sister for her post-surgery check-up to the doctor's office, then we went for lunch.
I had to pick up my glasses today (yay...I can see) and have finished the Christmas cards. They are ready to go.
I also took advantage of the nice weather to sweep the walks and driveway.
Off to check the news...
Back to the here and now .... Bit .... I moved to a place where .... right up my street ... you can buy bait ... get a tattoo ... a taco and cowboy hat ... get your eyes examined and your tags renewed while buying a purple prom dress ... go to church, get some yogurt ... and fried rice ... before lunch ... Har!
I love it so ...
It's so temptting to wish times away and be happy they are gone ... but like it or not ... those very times are the bridges which let us cross over ... begin anew ... start over .... try again ...try harder ... believe more ... put our damned head down and bull our way through ... again ... and maybe again ... again ... never expecting anything different until you allow yourself to see the six year old standing in his brother's size 12 shoes scooching the snow off the stoop because it's more fun than a shovel .... life .... human hopeful life ...
Oh illstillbe - you are a hard act to follow. with your glorious heartlifting words.
Have finally caught up with
atrw.
(((Peach))) Always prayers and keep us up-to-date.
lysie - incredible tales of MIL and cousins. Many thoughts come to mind but sometimes think you just do too much and aren't nasty enough.
Hope to post tomorrow/
I really am happy I have finished baking!!!! I make chocolate chip cookies and a special cookie recipe that our family loves. I soak dates in brandy and make oatmeal/date cookies using real butter, not margerine. They probably aren't "heart healthy" but I get few complaints.
Perhaps you could start cooking at the Heart Attack Cafe. I saw them interviewed sometime this overnight on FNC. 2# Hamburgers, Beer and Cigar place.
It sounds like those cookies would fit right in.
Thought I would share.... It's not even 2 am and I'm getting ready to relax for the evening/morning. And the best part is that I don't have to be in until 10:30 or so....
Christmas party tonight. Lots of yawning folks.... we're working our @$$es off....
I had a beautiful and accomplished friend attend the party with me. We looked nice, and had a great time. (She was awesome). I even wore my teeth ;>).

I'm back in the Carolinas again Jan 8 for a week
Can't remember the name of the town-but it's the same place I was last time
Good morning, Raven!
Good Morning.
Good morning. Discussion on Fox is about Senator Johnson's possible resignation and a flip in the Senate.
Good morning.
A nice cool 48 down here this morning.
Personally, I think the discussion of a possible resignation/replacement is premature, purely speculative and in bad taste.
They have the fellow disabled, and they know nothing about the purpose of the surgery he had late yesterday, or of the outcome.
I agree. However, it is interesting to see the media wringing their hands, indicating how much of a personal investment they have in democrats holding the Senate.
It is also interesting to note that Senator Reid rushed to the hospital last night.
