Beseeching Mother Nature

Now listen here, Mother Nature! You and I have to come to some kind of understanding! In FIVE days, it will OFFICIALLY be Autumn! I don't want anymore 97 degree temps like today! I want the clear, azure sky and crisp air that comes with Autumn!

I want to get in my shed and find my Autumn decor, but I cannot do that when it is 97 degrees outside because it is even hotter in my shed! If you choose not to cooperate, I will just end up having to make some, but I can do that too!

However, I beseech you to PLEASE bring in Autumn when it is supposed to come in. I love it outside! I have been able to go out very little during the summer because the heat makes me deathly sick, and the red bugs and mosquitoes love me, but I sure don't love them! Can I help it I am so sweet? Also, the flower beds are overgrown and need weeding.

Last year, it seems your senility was catching up with you. I mean, I know you are very old, but you didn't allow it to cool down here in the Heart of Dixie until late October! Can't we reach some kind of understanding? I'd be much obliged!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, MY LOVE!~

Thirty years ago today, October 7, 1978, I was in a white dress and veil walking down the isle to say I do to the love of my life, Donnie. Just months before, I had broken off an engagement with another guy that I had dated for probably 1.5 years. Donnie had also just been through a prior fairly long relationship where there had been talk of marriage. It is at this time of my reminiscing that I am glad that those prayers I prayed to God to be with the one prior to Donnie went unanswered. Donnie, too, had prayed and prayed about being with his prior girlfriend. They had planned to grow old and gray together and he was quite devastated when she broke things off with him, but you see, God had another plan… It started one night when my sister wanted me to go with her to her boyfriend, Melvin’s church to meet a friend of his. She was telling me how goodlooking she thought this guy was and how she felt we would be perfect for each other. I still wasn’t over my boyfriend, but I went along wit...

Pray For Me and/or Hold Good Thoughts For Me!~

I'm the mouse here. I have had a most emotionally draining day and could so use prayers and/or good thoughts. I thank you in advance. Susan

CHRISTmas Miracles Do Happen!~

Our family, tonight, was the recipient of a CHRISTmas Miracle. We were watching TV, the story of Mark David Chapman, the man who shot John Lennon, when we received a knock on our door. It was two of my nephews and a great nephew with two HUGE boxes. I asked them what they were doing, they said, "Delivering your CHRISTmas." It was so unexpected, I didn't know what to say. Nobody really knows the extent of how bad things have been for us lately. We have lived off of boxed mac and cheese mixed with tuna or Rice-A-Roni mixed with a small can of chicken. Some nights, we might have pasta, but without the meat. We have had egg sandwiches and grilled cheese sandwiches. I have actually lost about 8 pounds, which I needed to lose, but I do not recommend doing it this way. I hugged my nephews and told them thank you. They told us Merry CHRISTmas and left. It was just that quick. When I opened the boxes, there were wrapped gifts. I did not have one gift under our tree for either of ...
