Tomato Haters, Beware

( Garden/Food and Grandkids and Stuff I actually think )

There’s a new kid in town!   HA!
I kept noticing these nice, large and juicy-looking tomatoes that seemed to have started ripening, but then never quite kept going.   But never-you-mind, I was getting plenty from the other plants, anyway.   Finally, though  I had to find out “what gives??”
Guess what?   I forgot I [...]

Sarah, Palin and Tall

( Stuff I actually think )

Yes, that is my own.   Original with me, as far as I know….
NOTE 9.3.08:   This is what I get for thinking I am clever.   I ggoled this and there are about 50,000 entries with this title before mine.   Ha!

What’s Good for the Goose

( Stuff I actually think )

 
McCain’s Vice-Presidential running mate Sarah, Palin and Tall,  has been called by some Democratic pundits “blatantly inexperienced.”   Isn’t that like the pot calling the kettle “inexperienced?”
Naturally the Republicans are  declaring it a “bold move,” and that is true in some respects, as we have not previously had a female vice-presidential candidate whose hair [...]

Five Little Monkeys

( Garden/Food and Grandkids and Home and Mi familia and My most unforgettable people and Photos of the Fam and Stuff I actually think )

   
Gavin (5)  is in Kindergarten now.   He seems rather appalled at the lack of snacks and refreshments offered by his new teacher, as when he pre-schooled with me, each completed assignment signified it was time for a break and snack!   He also knows here, even if I put “special toys” away [...]

A Sign

( Garden/Food and Home and Stuff I actually think )

I am receiving this as a sign: this one floppy sunflower is fixed my direction.   The others continue heliotroping  vigorously  or fixing themselves toward my neighbor’s deck (the east), but this one, scraggly and wind-tossed, looks me straight in the eye, and makes itself shine upon me.
The world has  gone mad, but the sun [...]

How Could this Happen?

( God's Word and Marriage and Stuff I actually think )

My initial reactions are rage and disappointment.   My first responses are  deep grief and sadness, even anger. What are you thinking?   What have you done?   What happened?
Yet,  I tread carefully.   I  start to judge you, lash out and condemn you in my mind, but I must not.   Judge not that [...]

Good Morning, Dahlia

( Garden/Food and Home and Stuff I actually think )

Just as the sun was bursting over the profile of the house across the backyard at a little past 7, I glanced through the backdoor and a happy Dahlia said to me, “Good Morning, Jeanie.”   I smiled happily.   “Good morning, Dahlia.   You’re looking well.”
What a lovely, lovely way to start the day.

St Mary’s Glacier and the Debrief

( My most unforgettable people and Photos of the Fam and Stuff I actually think and Worship )

 
A few hundred yards up a “hill” from one of the lakes that lies at the feet of St. Mary’s Glacier is a beautiful little mountain “cabin” that just happens to be 3 stories of  gorgeous and posh accomodations.   The kind and generous owners allowed us use of it for our Heaven Fest [...]

1723 York Street

( Home and Memories and Mi familia and Photos of the Fam and Sacred Romance and Stuff I actually think )

About once a year  I dream of my childhood home - at least one of them.   We moved quite a bit, so there were many “homes.”   But there is “the one.”   It is the one I lived in from the summer of 1965 through  early September  1970.   It was my parent’s [...]

Every Possible Bad Word

( God's Word and Stuff I actually think )

When you blog, there are “robots” out there crawling around on their slimy underbellies looking for places to deposit sick and disgusting “comments” with links to their perverted websites.   These “comments”  are  generally 3872+ words long and they are all bad words, combinations, however,  of the same  limited, vile vocabulary  used  repeatedly ad naseum [...]
