    Searching for God Knows What

    seriously, if you can read this book I mentioned I am reading 2 posts ago - I encourage anyone who can to do so - really interesting...  I got it from the library and need to return it this week so you can request it and get it when I turn it in.  It is a book that discusses this mans searching process and discoveries in a lightly written manor.  The writer has some insights to human beings and how we think and relate that make you laugh and then some make you cry and others make you say " Ican't believe he wrote that!"

    anyway, I also found a place to make my own web page...the page can have my choice ofcontent etc. like a mail page but also some fun stuff. there is also things like an online word processing service called writely.com and it is where you can keep documents, change them, share them and edit them with others & much more.  it's really cool. it alsohas a place to make a TO Do list and you then cross off as you accomplish stuff and it really helps me with organizing my day - and goals! 

    well, I have to actually go now... I need to get to my list...top priority today: take a lovely walk! ( after my tea of course :o)

    aaahhhhhh......Sunday Afternoon

    Good Sunday Afternoon !

    Aren't Sundays great, lounging around, posting on Xanga, chillin with your family...

    oh wait, no my girls just left again - off to some church dinner for their youth.

    I am just amazed at how often it is my husband and I with the house to ourselves. I do love  those weekly overnight stays with my granddaughter now.  She is so sweet.  I gues it is here -I am an older woman. 

    seriously, do you ever walk into the bathroom and stand in front of the sink, look into the mirror- and get startled when the 17 year old you isn't there anymore?

    well, maybe it is just me, Istill write the date as years like 1978 when I write checks sometimes...time has just vaporized before me- like a wiff of smoke. 

    I can remember listening to the BeeGees over & over again and thinking disco was the coolest...or evene arlier watching Tony Orlando & Dawn on TV while I sat on our red flowered colonial looking sofa in our trailor with my brothers making too much noise with their Tonka trucks on the floor in the next room and I'm trying to sing with the television ...Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree... ahhh, like it was yesterday.

    oh well, though is has flown by, it has really been a pretty good life.

    It's not like my life is over soon mind you - just feeling a little nostalgic today

    well, enjoy your lazy sunday....sing a song, take a walk, hug a child - or your husband if he's closeby.

About Me

  • I Love to read, write, and live! I have traveled some, not near enough - I want to see the world! I am excited to see what lies up ahead for me... Life is good! There has to be an incredible creator of this universe, only a misguided or bitter or empty person would doubt. I want to try to talk to those people as I find them, tell them to Find True Life!!!! So, here we go!
