I do hope to be able to spend more time here with you all. As you know I'm not a poet but may illustrate a few songs here and there. Seem to understand lyrics better than prose.

Hopefully JH2 will start back writing satire, he's so good at it!

God is Love.

As Summer into Autumn Slips
by Emily Dickinson

As Summer into Autumn slips
And yet we sooner say
"The Summer" than "the Autumn," lest
We turn the sun away,

And almost count it an Affront
The presence to concede
Of one however lovely, not
The one that we have loved --

So we evade the charge of Years
On one attempting shy
The Circumvention of the Shaft
Of Life's Declivity.

~~Good Morning Friends of Amy's~~

[jaycee]

Just gorgeous, Billie, and good morning!

We must have posted at the same time...LOL!

I found something so cute I have to post for you later (re:thank you’s the other day.....it is unbelievable.)

Alfred Bernhard Nobel's Birthday



1833 ~ 1896

Alfred Bernhard Nobel was born October 21, 1833 in Stockholm Sweden.
Nobel, who invented dynamite, endowed a $9 million fund in his will. The
interest on this endowment was to be used as awards for people whose
work most benefited humanity. He wanted the profit from his invention to
be used to reward human ingenuity. First awarded in 1901, the Nobel Prize
is still the most honored in the world.

Electric Light Day







Can Can Day







Last But Certainly Not Least!

Beautiful fall graphics, galz! However, the leaves are still
mostly green here. I guess fall comes much later in West Texas! LOL!

[Billie]

What a pretty Fall Wreath, jaycee. Good morning! I'm trying to do too many things at one time and not doing a very good job of it. :(

For some reason, I got hungry for my mom's recipe for "Johnny Knows It" yesterday; bought the ingredients at the grocery store yesterday, and this morning I started putting it together - to reheat for easy dinner tonight. Well, good grief! It's making enough to feed an army, so I'll make TWO or THREE casseroles out of it - cook one tonight and put the other two in the freezer. I'll be back when I get it all put away.

[luvie]

Happy Anniversary to youuuuuuuuuuuuu!
