These are the best memories. That must be fun to watch your grandson and seeing his Mom in him!

Three cheers for JustAmy!!!!

Hip, hip, hooray!!!

I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said, dita. Where would we go, if we didn't have Amy's Place?

Those Daisies are Cute, Jaycee! Thank you! : )

I Forgot to Mention that my Internet Satellite Connection has a Mandatory "Threshold" of How Many Videos you are Allowed to Download; we Went over that Threshold within the First Few Months of Installation and Received an Email from them Threatening to Turn us Down to Dial-Up Speed. After that, I Upgraded the Package, and have Learned through Trial and Error How Many Vids I can Watch without Going Over the Threshold.

The Satellite doesn't Work when it's Raining, and One Time when the Modem Went Out, it Took 3 Tries to Get them to Come Here and Replace it; the Satellite didn't Work for about a Month and a Half, but we were Charged for Usage Anyway.

The Satellite's Price is Expensive and the Service Mediocre. :( I Read a List of Complaints once on the Internet, and one Guy said they Turned him Down to Half of Dial-Up Speed after he Went over the Threshold, and then they never would Change it Back. After that, I have Always Watched my P's and Q's Carefully, Monitoring my Usage Religiously to Avoid a Similar Fate. :(

Amen to your Beautiful post, Geologist!

Best Answering Machine Message Ever

Welcome to the Psychiatric Hotline. If you are obsessive-compulsive, please press 1 repeatedly. If you are co-dependent, please ask someone to press 2. If you have multiple personalities, please press 3, 4, 5 and 6. If you are paranoid, we know who you are and what you want. Please stay on the line until we can trace the call. If you are schizophrenic, listen carefully and a little voice will tell you which number to press. If you are delusional, press 7 and we will connect you to the mother ship. If you are manic-depressive, it doesn’t matter which number you press. No one will answer.

Have fun waiting for me to answer the phone!

Katie J.

P.S. By the way, if you call seven times and I don’t answer, I’m probably screening my calls and don’t want to talk to you. DO NOT CALL ME AGAIN.

[Kitty Mittens]

I'm So Sorry, (((((Polly)))))! Words Fail, but my Heart and Prayers are with you and your Sister.

[jaycee]

Oh Polly, I am so sorry! We will pray and pray! I know 3 women who had breast cancer and had mastectomies (some chemo) and all 3 have lived quite a long time and are still living.


And of course, praying for your sister

[jaycee]

Kitty, I have never heard of such 'restrictive rules'...my goodness, prisoners get better than that and don't even have to pay. Its unbelievable that anyone can have so much control over people when 'the people' are paying for their service. Terrible! Hope you can get something better soon.

My heartfelt prayers

[yorkie]

Thank you Gee Bee!

[The Mayor]

A Prayer for me please. I am going to the hospital to get looked at. I don’t feel well and I don’t want anything to happen.

[luvie]

Oh, Rus! I surely will pray. Please have Mrs. Mayor keep us posted on how you are! We don’t want anything to be wrong with you, either!

[Mama_Bear]

Oh, no....Cuz. I certainly will say a prayer for you! I am glad you are going to the hospital to get tested. So many things caught early are no problem at all now. I know it is easier said than done, but try not to worry until you find out if there is actually something to worry about.

Cuzzin hugs from me to you!!

[pollywog]

Prayers that all will be okay!!

Polly
