Inauguration


I watched the inauguration and I'll give you my take on the great celebration. It has nothing to do with the Obamas because I believe they were gracious to George W. and his family.

My disappointment lies in the mass of "so-called great Americans" who were cold and abusive to our former President. I'm sorry but I do not believe that you can be a great American and also lack respect for the office of the President. I also believe that you are not a good Christian if you are abusive to other people.

George W. Bush sacrificed much while he was in office. George W. Bush sacrificed and served America. Are we forgetting that he implemented many programs and new laws to keep us safe? Are we forgetting that he and his family have investments just like us and are taking the losses just like us? We must remember also that he cries tears for the sacrifices of our troops just like us? I feel sure he has spent many sleepless nights worrying about the future of millions of people. I offer my prayers for George W. and his family as they make this transition. May God Bless Them!

I also offer my prayers for the "so-called good Americans" who boo, jeer and hate. I pray that God will give them the ability to feel compassion and understanding.

Personally, I have always liked George W. Bush and all of his family. I think they are good Christians; as well as, great Americans. Also, don't you think the Bushes would be fun to hang-out with?

Let us all offer prayers for President Obama as he leads our nation into a new era. As his term progresses, let us not be critical but pray that God will give him the wisdom to make the correct decisions for our nation.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

I'm Back!

Hi Readers,

I am sorry but I have been doing hobby things and haven't been inclined to blog. I hope your holidays were wonderful. I had a great time with the family but ended up with a "nice" cold a couple of days after Christmas. I think a lot of other people got a nice cold for Christmas because several people I talked to during the holidays sounded just like me - hoarse, nasal, coughing.

Well, I went on a new adventure yesterday - Facebook. I got an e-mail from Carolyn which basically wanted me to sign on to Facebook and become one of her "friends". Since she really is my friend, I couldn't turn down the request. After signing on and becoming one of her friends, I decided to join Facebook and start one of my own. Evidently, it would help to be a teenager so I could understand the jargon. I have not a clue what I am doing on Facebook. If I ever figure it out, I will give you my site or you can just check it out.

However, I believe blogging is more my cup of tea. I hope to be blogging regularly now. I'll see you back here in a couple of days.

Oh What Fun!



Moving is so much fun. I'm having a real blast going back and forth from the old house to the new house and from the new house to the old house - loading and unloading. Well, I have almost everything moved but now the fun part - unpacking boxes and putting stuff away. Don't get me wrong, moving is actually a good thing and once it is done - it's a happy time.

I'll be back soon with a new post on my action packed blog. See you then.

My Favorite Places To Shop


I can honestly say that my favorite places to shop and browse are home improvement stores. Evidently, these places have great people doing their merchandising because the minute I enter the store, I feel the need to start a project whether I had actually planned to or not. Of course, my project always includes something that won't fit into my car and then I have to figure out a way to get the supplies for my project home. The man in the picture seems to have the same problem I have. Does anyone else have this problem?

Costumes And Candy


I think Halloween is a neat holiday. Is it the lovely attire or is it the candy? My favorite part is the candy. Of course, I have to dress up to make it official - it's a rule. Each year, I rack my brain to think of something to wear so I can get free candy. Then the big night comes and I get to go to peoples' homes and knock on their doors. The candy-giver comes to door and go "Oh - how cute" and hands me a hand full of candy. Of course, the whole time I am thinking - please let it be a big candy bar.

No - I really don't go trick or treatin' now but it is a fond memory from my childhood. However, the thrill of getting big candy bars instead of penny candy is as true today as it was when I was a child and it probably always will be.

I remember my favorite Halloween costume from my childhood. It was - drum roll please. I'll tell you tomorrow. I know you'll hardly be able to sleep tonight waiting for my answer.
