I'm a sceptic and believe everyone knows it's a scam.

;o) Thank you!
Your pink flower brightens up this day..Thank you for it
and the lovely scripture, Kitty.
Have a wonderful Lord's Day.

[MEG33]

Thank you so much, (((jaycee))))..I enjoy doing the openings....Need to find more graphics...I am almost out.
;o)
That puddle splasher made me laugh.

[MEG33]

Good creation, Lady!
;o)
I don’t think Gorebots know..They blindly follow..and get hysterical.
I am all for clean air to breathe..but their ideas are off the charts of reality.

I was going to post the cutest puddle spasher and when I got it on post, the picture was huge in pixels (big) but the bytes said the same as what I thought I was posting. I just erased it as I thought it was too big. Do not know what happened.

My computer, I’m ashamed to say is terrible today. If I don’t get it cleared up soon, I will have to quit for a while. It is taking me forever to get from place to place, etc. (not fun at all). I am going to reboot and fix lunch and I have a few things to do also. May see you later!
Sorry I can’t be on. And if I may say so, this computer depresses me at the moment.

I have loved having a newer computer..I tried to work from the desktop while cleaning the guest room and it is so very slow and unpredictable..
I am glad I sprung for the laptop..It freezes on me at times..but I can usually get out of it quickly though impatiently.
You can have your son download all your files onto a thumb drive ..and plug it into a new computer..nothing lost.

[Lady Jag]

Was it Popeye who said, “I say what I mean and I mean what I say?” It’s me, too.

[Lady Jag]

Yes, and those charts go all the through to people who should know better. That’s how you can tell that big bucks are involved when “experts” sound stupid.

[MEG33]

Listening to "Somebody's Praying"..wonderful song
Thank you for the music and blessings.
Happy Lord's Day, LUV.

[luvie]

You're welcome, Megs!
Hope you and your kitties
have had a good weekend!
God Bless You!

[MEG33]

Lovely, LUV! We are all snug and relaxing.

THE SNOW BIRD SONG-POEM

The ground was all covered with snow one day,
And two little sisters were busy at play,
When a snow-bird was sitting close by on a tree,
And merrily singing his chick-a-dee-dee,
Chick-a-dee-dee, chick-a-dee-dee,
And merrily singing his chick-a-dee-dee.

He had not been singing that tune very long,
Ere Emily heard him, so loud was his song;
“Oh, sister, look out of the window,” said she,
“Here’s a dear little bird singing chick-a-dee-dee.
Chick-a-dee-dee, chick-a-dee-dee,
Here’s a dear little bird singing chick-a-dee-dee.

“Oh, mother, do get him some stockings and shoes,
And a nice little frock, and a hat if you choose;
I wish he’d come into the parlor, and see
How warm we would make him, poor chick-a-dee-dee!
Chick-a-dee-dee, chick-a-dee-dee,
How warm we would make him, poor chick-a-dee-dee!”

“There is One, my dear child, though I cannot tell who,
Has clothed me already, and warm enough too.
Good morning! Oh, who are so happy as we?”
And away he went singing his chick-a-dee-dee.
Chick-a-dee-dee, chick-a-dee-dee,
And away he went singing his chick-a-dee-dee.

F.C. Woodworth.

Finding Peace Within

It was on a chilly Sunday Icy snow was on the ground I trudged along in misery Till I heard an organ sound I had some heavy burdens A family member ill And other things bothering me In this early morning chill I felt a little lost that day As worries cluttered my mind I felt so very isolated Peacefulness I couldn’t find Amazing Grace was playing In this beautiful brick-built church I decided to just stop a moment After all it wouldn’t hurt I slipped inside the heavy doors And into the very back pew The minister was saying Many things I knew were true He said that God is always with us He has such loving power I found myself some hope again In that very special hour!
