DEAR DARLING.....

To my darling husband,
Before you return from your business trip I just want to let you know about the
small accident I had with the pick up truck when I turned into the driveway.

Fortunately it is not too bad and I really didn't get hurt, so please don't worry
too much about me.

I was coming home from Wal-Mart, and when I turned into the driveway I
accidentally pushed down on the accelerator instead of the brake.

The garage door is slightly bent but the pick up fortunately came to a halt when
it bumped into your car.

I am really sorry, but I know with your kind-hearted personality you will
forgive me.
You know how much I love you and care for you my sweetheart.

I am enclosing a picture for you.

I cannot wait to hold you in my arms again.

Your loving wife
P.S. OH.......AND, YOUR GIRLFRIEND CALLED!

LOUIS ARMSTRONG AND JOHNNY CASH....

ANOTHER NOTE: Cindy Cash (Johnny's daughter) was my roomate in re-hab.
GOD, I love 'em both!

LOYALTY IN MARRIAGE....


A woman's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months, yet she had stayed by his bedside every single day.
One day he motioned for her to come nearer.
As she sat by him, he whispered, eyes full of tears, "You know what?
You have been with me all through the bad times.
When I got fired, you were there to support me.
When my business failed, you were there.
When I got shot, you were by my side.
When we lost the house, you stayed right here.
When my health started failing, you were still by my side.
You know what?"
"What dear?" she gently asked, smiling as her heart began to fill with warmth.
"I think you're bad luck.
Get the hell away from me."
Thank you KATHY for this one!

MISSISSIPPI REVIVAL....

Thank you Cliff for this song of revival!

TOUGH LOVE vs. SPANKING....

It seems that these days most Americans think it is improper to spank children, so over the years I tried other methods to control my children when they had one of "those moments."
One that I found effective is for me to just take the child for a car ride and talk.
They usually calm down and stop misbehaving after our car ride together.
I've included a photo below of one of my sessions with one of my boys, just in case you would like to use the technique.

AROUND THE CORNER....



















I have obviously been distracted from blogging for the past week and this is due to opening a "Gift Shop" in downtown Meridian, Mississippi. It is something that I am having a "blast" putting together and we hope to open in mid October with our Grand Opening on November 3, 2007. So, Quasar, thank you for prompting me to post SOMETHING explaining the last photo. {{{laughing}}}
"Across the street....from Around The Corner."
I miss you each and will be back to the norm, whatever that is, soon!
Much love to you all!

Well, unless there is photo graphical evidence that I have become such!

13 THINGS.....

As I was cleaning the kitchen last night, I shuddered at the thought of cleaning the doors and handles of my refrigerator. It is COVERD with children's crafts, artwork, photos and fun stuff that people in my life have gifted or sent in the mail.
But then I got to thinking......
What would I like to see on my refrigerator that is not already there?
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
So, this is my list of 13.
1. The smiles on the faces of my children.
2. The feeling of cool air on my skin.
3. My love of God.
4. The smell of a fire burning.
5. The sound of Leigh M. McCluskey's laughter.
6. The memory of a loved one.
7. Mr. Liquid's shadow with laundry detergent in his hands.
8. An everlasting rainbow.
9. A hand written note to me from Angelina Jole'.
9. A reminder card for an appointment with Dr. Gordon.
10. My car keys.
11. A chunk of the Berlin Wall.
12. A piece of fried chicken from Rittman, Ohio.
and
13. A utility bill that I need to walk over and deliver to Amias.
If you'd like to share your 13....
post a comment, rather spill a drink, leaving a link to your blog
so we can all take a look at
what's on your 'fridge!

A SONG FOR MOMS.....
