Ya think?

Ours first came up with what looked like oyster shells but none of them matched each other. I had to do some research and found this area was 'under' water many, many, years ago.

I know I am behind on my pings, but can’t seem to find anything about SilentGypsy’s daughter.

Whatever is the problem, be it physical illness, personal problems or a family situation......whatever it is, Dear Heavenly Father, we ask you to intercede with your Divine Mercy, and Grace! Amen

[oldteen]

You're welcome, Amy...twice! :)

It is quite cool up here but, Mr. Sun is brightly shining.

For All The Cat~People of Amy's Place


Milk Barn Cats





Being a Milk Barn Cat is a life of long hours and splendor
Up before the Sun starts to rise, it is our pleasure to render
Whatever aid we can to get the big Milk Cows lined up by the Milk Barn Door
Helping to calm them as they move across the thick, smooth wooden floor
And into their Stalls as the fun just starts to begin

For we wise old Milk Barn cats, the situation is Win~Win
As we move about huge dirty hooves and shiny metal buckets are quietly slid in
Just before the Hind Legs while the Big Human adjusts himself upon a rough hewn stool
We watch the Big Human's hand wrap and squeeze as Milk squirts to make us drool
Soon, a rhythm begins with the Big Human's hands and the bucket begins to sing

The Music and Magic makes us slowly disregard the safety of our Ring
Side Seats as the Big Human smiles and gives each one of us a treat
Courtesy of a well timed and arched squeeze from one of the first Milk Cow's teats
Just payment for the work accomplished as the Sun begins to glow
We Barn Cats will still have room for Breakfast with three more Milk Cows to go!

When I am work-work-working...it doesn’t really matter if it rains. LOL...I don’t taker the bike be cause I am schlepping equipment.

[PGalt]

Amen. Thanks for the link/song, oldteen. I haven’t heard that in some time. OUTSTANDING!

I just got home from work, not so long ago. I’ve only been “here for a little while”. It looks like everyone’s had a good Tuesday.

Thanks for post #757, The Mayor. I was thinking those EXACT thoughts while at work today. WOW. “Old Days” BUMP!

[oldteen]

LOL....another great one, Jack!

Brings back memories of years ago. Had an uncle with a dairy farm...LOTS of cows. Not only did the cats get the fresh stuff but the dogs as well. Thanks for a real chuckle!

[oldteen]

You're most welcome! Country fan here! :)

The 'Old Days' are something I miss as well. It really hasn't been that long ago when you think about it. Very sad.

M/L...how many times have you been told to stop burning out in the living room???

Now....move the bike outside & roll the rug back down OK?

We received a call from my Dr last night at 8:30pm. He was reporting on the results of my pathology following surgery last wednesday evening.

It seems the cancer is quite aggresive within the bladder. He has referred me to a local oncologist who will administer two Chemo therapies(always wondered what I’d look like bald?!?).

Once those procedures are completed and healing period takes place, I will undergo a procedure to have my bladder removed. This will likely carry into next year.

I’m not really bummed by all of this latest news. As you can read on my tag line, I can face tomorrow, because my Savior Lives. I take GREAT comfort in knowing that my Savior is right beside me and I will follow Him, wherever life’s journey takes me.

My family is surrounding me with love and prayers. Mrsdd has stated that we have been together all these years (46 married) and nothing will erase our love for one another.

I want to thank each and everyone of you for you prayers and well wishes and prayers.

This message will be repeated on the Prayer Thread.

Thank you to each and everyone who have lifted me and my family up in prayer. I will in a day or two, offer up prayers of Thanksgiving for all your prayers of healing on the prayer thread.

I’ve likely missed some screen names in this post. It is out of my ability to remember so many names. Howerver, I will copy alll names on my next post at the Prayer Thread.

May our LORD offer answered prayers toov one and all. May HE also provide spiritual healing to those in need of that Blessing. HE is able to sort it all out and provide blessings to one and all on this thread.
