Are you one who visits and never comments? Is this your first visit to the blog. I would love to hear from you!! Newbies or not, Please don't just lurk, comment. De-Lurk!
Sorry for lurking! I love your blog and read it daily. We (you and I) have been "in class" together several times over the past few years including this year. I am mom to one of the most outgoing 7 year olds on the planet. Anyway... about American Idol, the above referenced 7 y/o cries through the entire episode last night because she was afraid all of these people had their feelings hurt. It all started with yellow suit guy!
I with you...my friends read the blog and then send me an email!!! They don't realize that comments give you the push to keep on writing .... feedback, it's a great thing, right?
Military Mama-Thanks so much for dropping by. I hope you are doing well. I can imagine how it must feel to send you hubby back off, but know how we as Americans take such pride in our military but also your family for the sacrifise that you all make. It's nothing short of heroic and admirable. I applaud you. I stand and applaud. My sincere thanks. For the Love-you so make me laugh. Glad you "lurk". Charnita-Welcome to Helena! It seems we have much in common. I hope we can get together sometime. I want to introduce you to my friends. It is always nice, especially when you are new to the area-to have some friends. Welcome! Thanks for your kind words in your email you sent. Anon-I am almost certina that I know who you are. I adore you and your 2 children. Your daughter is a joy! And quite possibly the next American Idol. For real! To be honest, Sledge would kill me for admitting, but she felt the same way. She wanted to know why Simon can't say no without being rude. Oh, I saw you on MOn at about 10:00 at the intermediate school pulling in, tried to wave but you didn't see me. I am SOOOo glad you commented! Sweet family! Abbey Rd-you know how I love you rblog. A very talented writer you are! And new friend!I whole heartidly agree with your comment. Comments are like getting "good stuff" in the mail rather than bills. Melanie-thanks for commenting. You have a nice blog. I plan to be dropping by yours too! Thanks to all for takin gthe time to comment. DELURK! DELURK!

"Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of s*&t."

Words of Wisdom
"Older and wiser voices can always help you find the right path, if you are only willing to listen."-Jimmy Buffett
Sea Joy When I go down by the sandy shore,I can think of nothing I want moreThan to live by the booming blue seaAs the seagulls flutter round about me. I can run around when the tide is outWith the wind and the sand and the sea all about,And the seagulls are swirling and diving for fish.Oh, to live by the sea is my only wish. - Jacqueline Bouvier
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream." --- Mark Twain
The cure for anything is salt water---sweat, tears, or the sea. ~Isak Dinesen
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.Philippians 4:12,13 NIV
Live a good life and in the end it's not the years in the life, it's the life in the years.~ Abe Lincoln
Let your boat of life be light Packed with only what you need --A homely home and simple pleasures,One or two friends, worth the name,Someone to love and someone to love you,A cat, a dog, and a pipe or two,Enough to eat and enough to wear,And a little more than enough to drink...For thirst is a dangerous thing. -- Jerome K Jeromefrom "Three Men in a Boat"
The love of God is like the ocean, you can see its beginnings but not its end.
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." ~Eleanor Roosevelt
"We can make our plans,But the LORD determinesour steps" Proverbs 16:9
"Let us not forget what is best remembered or may we not remember what is best forgotten."
"Fish and overnight guest stink after three days." ~plaque at Fish Camp Restaurant, Orange Beach, Alabama
"We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human being experience."
"A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future and accepts you today just the way you are." Proverbs 27:17
The happiest people don't have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything they have. The richest person is not the one who has the most, but the one who needs the least.
Live simply. Love generously. Care Deeply. Speak Kindly. Leave the Rest to God.
Worry is a robber of time and energy. Take comfort within that God's power is what we truly need. Heknows our needs before we can even ask for them.
If you worry, you didn't pray. If you prayed, don't worry. Faith is the ability to not panic.
Don't "find" a religion. "Find" your relationship with God. ~Bill Burgess
"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great ones make you feel that you, too, can become great."-Mark Twain
