so slumbering september
I am really amazing to have days slip thru without even realizing that they hardly come and gone. Just like this year. I been rather an unusual time the entire year. It almost like climbing a mountain and not sure whether you get there or not , not knowing the outcome of each step, nothing seem to have a reason for a meaning, it just is whatever it is. most of my days really dont seem to mean much of anything.I think it has to do with the fact that I am at a lost for perhaps who I am , I use to know, My purpose was there. I had no reason to question it. People need a purpose. I need one and so do you. without one one just chases their own tail, it is meaningless......... that is enough said now.perhaps later more said.

when "professional" hurts Photography
I seriously see how satan is everywhere in all different forms.......And i sorry Mr Jonathan manager I do not appreciate you and your photo dept not allowing me to pay for my photos of my GRANDBABY just because you think they look like a photographer took them, well I told him Yes my daughter is a photographer and Yes I am too I have been taking pictures since I was 8 years old and the photos i printed were from my daughter camera it one you can buy and does that mean i cant have prints made off that camera .... well forget your rules and regulations i not a very happy customer right now and I just order from SNAPFISH or check Walgreens prices and POLICIES fior photos from a very nice camera . I am really beginining to not like WALMART there is actually another word that begans with H and ends in E . So now one needs a degree in picture taking --- or "PROFESSIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY " well by george i get it or get my name on all my photos ...so I told them well I can call anyone because my phone just died , nor can i check my email wheremy daughter sent the pictures and even if i call her at this moment it would disrrupt her worship service. so I watch as they took my precious baby photo that were intend for grandkparents and great-grandparents........well they TRASHED THEM!!! So perhaps i can turn that anger and as David said turn it to something good, well perhaps it time to lobby against something ............I have a right to my photos

Dad You're the Best ----part one
Father day was not the usual, not the day for going to worship,eating out with dad(Mike)getting a special present and family together. It was a day where I saw again how dad's all are different. And that all Dad's have the title as stated above.
Dad's may not have all the same traits in all things but it is true that
All "Dads are the Best" in at least something.
One really needs to find the good in everyone and magnify that and any good thing of a person.
I spent Father's day at Vanderbilt going to see my sister in the burn unit.She has improved so much and still has much to accomplish and with the love of God, will. WE just need that feeding tube out SO she can eat FOOD and can work on speech. TWO pipes in a very sore throat!!!! I want to say put one in your nose and throat and you try it. Poor Carol she trying so hard . I would have pulled it out by now if it was in my nose, she cant reach it. Well that all a different subject.
While in the waiting room I observed a young man probably late 30 to early 40's that i thought was the same guy in the ICU a couple weeks ago. His girl friend had been burnt more severe,and was not expected to have lived. She is doing better. He emotionally ,physically and spiritually is sick. He could not eat,had not for 3 days and when he had tried he vomited bile and blood. He had a history of cancer in his intestine. He said "I feel alone" Even though he has the support from his ex wife who calls at the extend housing at Vandy and prays with him at night and his girlfriend love and know that God is there, he is alone. I pray that I was able to help in spiritually,emotional and physically. I did take him to the ER and hopefully he remains under their care until they can resolve his physical needs.
This man has 3 children, has a handicap son around age 13 and two older sons. He is broken,cast down upon and so needs the love of God in his life. Which he knows that ultimate he answers to God. I am willing to share his name if someone wants to help this couple,they lost everything in a rented trailer in Dyersberg .
I look at photos of fun loving kids in beautiful clothing and think of all the children that really belong to God,the beautiful kids, those in rags,and he older ones too. I told Scott someone once told me "God has no Grandchildren,only children. Thu his hurt he weeps and prayerful though God's love he will be drawn nearer to God's bosom and stay there.

Since May 16th, 2010
So much has gone on in the last 2 week it be hard to know where to start.
May 16th my sister was in a house fire. She is in ICU in the Burn Unit at Vanderbilt Hospital Her house considered totaled by the ins.company.
She has 23% burns to her face neck and arms. She had been on a vent up until last night that is 12 days I believe. Today she was breathing on her own ( she has a tracheotomy) to be a temporary support.It is just taking a while for her to mend. So continue or add her to you prayer list.
Next my status change forever.
I am a Grandmother , that seems a little strange. So now am i that old enough, look like one or even act like one LOL yeah your right all of the possible mentioned. So what is one to look, act,age enough to be the such. It doesn't even matter , What matter is that I am and it is an amazing thing for you little one to have a little one. :) so let's see if I can get a new look at the new me.

May 14th 2010
Yea today is the start of my 2 week vacation. I had plans to visit the beach of Pensacola for 3 full days and to visit my first grandchild on her "birthday" . Well when you live with other people your life is not your own. My S/O use ALL of his vacation and sick time up on sick days and "other" vacation days thru the past several months ---- so it DEFINITELY affects me. SO Now I must cancel the blue skies and sand ,sun and relaxation of residing on the beach for 3 full days of doing nothing but reading,gazing and playing in the warm gulf water I hope I get my money back! If my actions would not affeCt anyone, I do what I wanted and just go on down, but as you know generally there are consequences that one lives with.
As usual I try the most to make the best of what is there. WE will be traveling to the gulf of Mexico visit and assist as needed with our daughter's need ,Her husband can not take off the usual 6 weeks and in the mist of it all she has to have SURGERY to get the baby out. Surgery is a simple word but is a stressful subject on the body. She is young and should do well. It does mean that all futures pregnancy will end up this way, LORD PLEASE TURN THAT BABY AROUND . With any surgery you have the risk of adhesions and that generally causes problems later on. I don't know why he Dr does not try to turn it around to avoid surgery. Almost 60 years ago babies were turn around at delivery time. Course Dr's probably were more like vets. They use what they had and rolled with it and generally did work well. My brother was turned at delivery he was breech. That was almost 60 yrs ago and no that not what wrong with him.
Oh on to greet this sunless day beginning, I sooooooooo need the sun!

Oh Happy Mothers Day!
I am hurt,shall I tell you why. My daughter and her hubs do not want me to visit when she goes to the hospital to have her first child ,which is our first grandchild. I find that very strange. Anyone would be thrill to have anyone come to say " oh she so cute," and esp you think you would want your family that could to come and visit.
Least that is what most people want. I sometimes wonder if this is my daughter, the excuse "well there is no sense in driving here for 8 hours for a 30 minute visit"
I not going to lie up in your bed an eat potato chips.
I went with a friend to visit a ex co worker at Summit Hospital. She was thrill that we came for a visit.She even let us both sit on her bed and even offer us chips. There are places to stay so not to intrude upon the privacy of a young family with a new baby.
All I can say is just wait and perhaps you will understand once you are a mother.I certianly hope you will, just a characteristic of being a mom. No wonder some mothers ignore their kids.
Happy Mother's Day for any of you mothers.

Watching , well not really , Field of Dreams.It is on, the volume is off and I need to review BLS but falling asleep is what was happening while trying to do that. I really want some ice cream chocolate with raspberry sauce . I shall probably get some before going to bed. I am still working on the baby quilt for my first grand baby. We are planning a dinner/shower for Anna and John Friday the 2nd of April. They are coming here and will be staying with us. Short trip for them I wish it was longer. I am posting this picture just because I am trying to learn how to do so : but it is a sweet picture of my great niece with her uncle which is my nephew.

Addiction
I have become an addict to shopping at "Once Upon a Child"
I must say that is the most clever of most names for a child clothing store.
It is clothes that was once upon a child. :)
I should have created that.. ARGH
now it has Franchises probably in CHINA even!!!!
So my Granddaughter whatever her little name is is just going to be too cute even if she isn't cute. Ha!
I should be more creative,yeah I'll work on that.
For now, it's bedtime; I just needed to confess my addiction before I fall asleep ;>

Feb 8th,2010
I just notice that had written a post a year ago, the same day.
Today we had lunch at mom and dad's. Dannie our first cousin ask Geneva McKnight ( first cousin) to get it together; so she call mom and ask to see if we would come to dinner at mom and dad. Elizabeth and Eddie along with Carol,Nyla,Rita,Darlene and I went. Within the small kitchen area we all enjoyed a meal and just conversation. It was nice.
Later I was cooking and looked out the window and could not believe the ground was covered with SNOW! I wonder how much we will get. Since Abby dug in the dirt she is in not allow on the sofa as Belle and Teddy are enjoying Princess Diary 2. I hate to make her stay in the room where it is cold,dark and lonesome. She just needs a bath. It is not an easy task mostly because there are 3 dogs to wash.
for now, I need to see that snowfall. night!

A Month Gone By
It is really not long before a month goes by.
Just tomorrow will be a month since I last made an entry.
Blogging so much like keeping a diary.
Just wonder if anyone much does that anymore?
My Dad does daily write on a large calendar of the day's
event. He has done it for years probably 50 yrs.
I remember when being young he would do it.
He feels it is important to do so. Yes he still reviews
past calendars to see what happened and when.
I really like to be more faithful in keeping a journal,
a blog or something.
What i really like to do is to teach a small sewing class
for kids. Kids that actually want to learn how to sew.
I Hope to do this,I have wanted to for a long time.
Something to think about something to work on doing.
It been a cloudy day, some rain, darkness is coming quickly
and it time to let the doggies out they have been napping
but I now hear Belle scratching and whining at the side door
( the garage room).
I need to do something , I need to sew, that is where feel
I am being productive.
I have plenty of projects,curtains that need making.
I like to make some elves;I just need some motivation
in doing this.
I also an a procrastinator I NEED and WANT to clean up that
GARAGE ROOM , where the doggies spend their nights and rainy
days. It need to be a room of productivity not a room to hoard
things and or JUNK in. A Christmas tree would be nice there...
I need days off and Sunshine and a will to get rid of stuff .
