An Award??
Nov 30th
Wow, somebody gave me an award!! I have known about it for awhile, but since it came at a time when I was not in a writing way, I have left it for now.
I am deeply honored that someone thinks enough of my blog to give me an award.
Here is my award:
I also have to follow the rules:
1) Add the logo of the award to your blog.
2) Provide a link to the person’s blog who gave you the award. Pammie’s Place
3) Nominate at least four other blogs.
4) Add Links to the blogs on your blog
5) Leave a message for your nominees on their blog.
My nominees are already listed on my sidebar:
Better and Better
The Lawdog Files
Momma’s Corner
Mrs. DOF
Pammie’s Place
SEB
I read all of their blogs and while their writing styles and topics vary greatly and their opinions don’t always mirror my own, they are very entertaining.
So thank you very much Pammie!! You keep up the good work too!!
Meet Our Newest Family Member
Nov 30th
Just wanted to do a quick one and let you see a picture of our newest family member.
Our oldest one just got a kitten. One of our friends had a cat that had kittens and since she has been wanting one, they brought it down when they came to spend Thanksgiving with us. She had picked her out right before Halloween; we had to wait for her to be old enough to leave her momma.
Here is a picture of Zonia (Zoe-nyah) or just Zo for short.
Seems the little furball likes to play with straws and bits of paper. Her favorite place to sleep, so far, is on the top of my boobs with her head tucked under my chin. She likes to ride on my shoulder while I walk around the house. Can’t get too attached though, when the oldest gets her own place the cat goes with her. Oh well……
Giving……….
Nov 25th
I know, I know, I haven’t written in like forever or something.
Sorry.
Been sick, hubby was sick/still sickish, lots of stuff going on…. yadah, yadah, yadah………
Found this while out surfing around today and since Christmas is only a whole, whopping month away I thought that it was time to at least post something about the coming season. Yes, I missed posting on hubby’s birthday (11/22) but we were enjoying it as a family and he did have a happy one!! Thanks to all who sent him cards; he enjoyed being remembered.
Anyway, back to the subject on hand. Watch the video and if it doesn’t inspire you than you must have a stone cold heart.
We participated in delivering food to people on Sunday. One of our many doctors heads up a food drive and planned to give to 400 families in our area that were in need. Last week we hadn’t yet met the food goal for 350 so I don’t know on Sunday how many there were to deliver to, I only know that we showed up to do our part.
The last time I passed out food to the truly homeless was back when my oldest (who is 22+) was a baby of 3 & 1/2+. We had gone down to Atlanta to visit family for the holidays and I was assigned the task of taking my nephew to join his church youth group to pass out food to the homeless and poor. I was amazed when there that just a block or two away from the beautiful downtown area were some of the poorest areas of that city. We passed out gloves and sandwiches to the homeless under the freeway overpasses. We passed out groceries and gloves to the ones that answered their doors.
Then I went home very humbled by those people who were surviving on so little when we had been blessed with so much.
Pardon Me While I Laugh Till I Puke…….
Nov 1st
One of my friends sent me this and I just had one of the best laughs I have had lately. The subject matter isn’t a laughing matter for some – my point is why don’t you just answer the question???
Was the question that hard???????
And if that doesn’t give you enough food for thought fodder than watch this one and listen to how often the speech changes to fit the climate of the voters.
And if you can handle reading a 236 page book with an additional 54 pages of info and documentation BEFORE the election than I would suggest you read “The Case Against Barack Obama” by David Freddoso. If you still want to vote for this clown after reading that, than may God save us all.
I really wish that Ron Paul was still on the ballot!!
