I nearly choked on my coffee when I read that Obama thinks Pelosi will go down as one of the finest speakers in the U.S. Whatever he's drinking I don't want any. It makes people delusional. Reid must drink the same. Why else would he think that "but for him" we'd be in a depression?
Reminders:
1) Vote
2) Roth IRA conversions end this year !!!
3) No Coke for Breakfast
4) Dems are dopes
Mom's funeral is on course for tomorrow despite assaults from every angle imaginable..Murphy AKA the devil has been busy. My brother arrives later today. My mother loved big parties, good food/music & to entertain. Her send off will be reflective of that spirit of joy
Was to help a few candidate friends over the weekend & up to & including election day but with all the out of town people & work involved(I am doing all), not possible. I will vote & pray hard for results to protect our republic.
Sandy, of course mega prayers.. I know you have worked hard & suffered, as most good candidates, at the hands of unscrupulous jerks
I know there are a lot of health, financial and other issues here and I do hope & pray you are all getting through the difficult times. My $$ situation has gone from difficult to unimaginably terrible.. but I KNOW that there is always that light at the end of the tunnel, even though right now it is not visible. Often one door MUST close before others can open. Lots of things to work out to be able to achieve some long range dreams & those new horizons. Just first will get though this weekend & go from there.
My friend Mark might be a part of the trip I had planned in mid Novemeber. Hope to see some of you & have lunch, coffee, drink & chat. I have my son & several good friends for sure to link up with in NC.
My tentative plans for this trip is south to NC, SC, Miss, Ala, La, Texas & ending in Ok for Thanksgiving. Will return the northern route via Tulsa etc. If you are in any of those paths & would like to meet up, please let me know. Getting together for a meal with a group is ideal (like the Onyx, Jemian, Jtill, Gulfcoast6 group) Mark is a libertarian but very supportive of all the causes We here support & not a wacko who has this "Pot for everyone" mentality. He just likes to keep the govt out of everyone's hair & business. I truly feel very close to so many of you even though we have NOT face to faced yet. Many of you I have met & have come to feel akin!
Here is a pix of my mom taken 2 years ago. Isn't she remarkably youthful looking (for 90)? Yes, some sagging(mine is worse) but lots of hair, minimal wrinkles. The best thing of all was that she kept her mind til the last days she communicated. It has been a long 18 year journey here caregiving. I truly thought I would go first, she was always so resilient.
Umm, #3. Too late. Already had my coke.
She was gorgeous. And you did a wonderful work taking care of her. I already said a prayer for you today. My thoughts are with you during this time.
One more reminder:
Today is Friday. I will be wearing red as a symbol of support for our troops. I will wear red on Fridays until our combat troops leave Afghanistan.
CONGRATS ON ALL YOUR RESILIENCE AND PROGRESS.
PRAYERS AND HUGS.
May God lead you every step.
Prayers for the Nation, Candidates . . .
Dolly, that is a remarkable photo. Thanks for posting. All will be well tomorrow, I'm sure
Raven, I wake up late, and what do I find, but your very droll post. A cyber hug to you for making me laugh...and notice, I'm not arguing with any of your "reminders"!
Dennis (Kucinich) Fatigue...Vote Corrigan!!! Just heard on the radio....
Lovely. Prayers for you and your family.
You are welcome.
Most Americans want O 'fired' in '12 Am. Thinker

I’ll be with you in prayer and thoughts tomorrow.
I so know what you are going through in so many ways. It is a struggle from time to time to even want to keep going. Not so much the loss but the impact the loss has on you after so many years of care-taking.
I am hoping your family issues wind up better than mine here have so far. Of the 6 of us, only one is being a butt head over the estate and other stuff too irritating for me to get into.
We(meaning us here in NY and others from other parts of the country) have not had the opportunity to finalize Mom’s wishes yet. hopefully come the spring we’ll be able to do that.
Anyway.....I know your Mom appreciated all you did for her.
Luv ya
Prayers for you, too, sweetie.
Thanks for the links, Molly.
Thank you dear. Much cooler temps today. WOW.
Yes, it’s a shock to the system, that’s for sure. I’m thankful that most of Oct was very, very pleasant...that just leaves Nov, Dec., Jan, Feb and March to shiver thru....
Your Mom was beautiful..May God be with you during this trying time.
The political is getting interesting, ole Charlie Crist just can't let it go, addicted to the political scene. Am hoping the pubs make a big splash and then we will hold them responsible, if they can't do it, out to pasture they go. Our nation is on a patch to nowhere as it is today...
TJ is loving school, he is doing so well, teachers favorite, still a little boy, mention girl to him and it's ‘YUK”!!! Caleb is going on full blast 24-7, suggested to D that she changes his diet, not responsible what goodies he gets when he comes to my ‘shack in the back’.
In the way south of Mississippi we got some short violet thunder storms yesterday, nary a cloud in the sky today and we need more rain, so dry here.
Got my day started now, will rare back and read some post. All have a good and safe day!
Toby
I hope you have some nice plans for the weekend?? How's G. doing??
Every time I come back to this picture I get hungry for pancakes.....
Toby
And that many months till the new Baseball season...LOL.
Want to try to put some household things in order this weekend. Zay will help no doubt. Then we have Trick or Treating on Sunday. I think the Pixies will be visiting on Sunday also.
Have a good one Molly
