Tuesday Poem

Wake Up Call

I stubbed my toe late last night
while shuffling off to bed,
The pain shot from my toe
right to the top of my head.

I yelled, and screamed – jumped up and down.
I massaged my toes – rubbed them all around.
They felt much better so I resumed my trek
On down the hallway – my foot a wreck.

Next I encountered the dog’s old bone
Which he planned on chewing when all alone.
It was hard and unpleasant, soggy and wet
One of those chew things you get from the vet.

Once again I was doing my dance
As all around the house I did prance.
The next items my poor feet did encounter
My shoes lying behind the kitchen counter.
Then the dog dish and the cat’s water
I did spill – my little toesies have had their fill.

I’m wide-awake now – there’ll be no sleep tonight.
And next time - - I’ll turn on the light.

Just a "fun" poem from a true incident one night.

Todd on Monday

 Todd looks like he had done something bad...But he always looks like that.


He always has a lot of love but he still looks like he is sad.  I do know that he still misses Molly.

But first there are the flowers.  Bruce came and brought us our bouquet.

 

Then Todd had some outside time.


But he needs to have a friend to play with.

Then it was back to get some time to sit with me and talk to me.  He likes to have his head and back scratched.

And I took some pictures of our neighbor's trees,  They were pretty.

Thank you for stopping by to see us.  jcs

Apiarians

"Were I to be the founder of a new sect,

I would call them Apiarians, and, after the example of the bee,

advise them to extract the honey of every sect."  

- Thomas Jefferson

"A garment that is double dyed, dipped again and again,

will retain the color a great while;

so a truth which is the subject of meditation."

~Matthew Henry

When we were children, we used to think that

when we were grown-up we would no longer be vulnerable.  

But to grow up is to accept vulnerability. .

. . To be alive is to be vulnerable.

~Madeleine L'Engle

Better is an handful with quietness, than both the

hands full with travail and vexation of spirit.

 Ecclesiastes 4:6

The past is to be respected and acknowledged,

but not to be worshipped.

It is our future in which we will find our greatness.

-Pierre Trudeau, 15th Prime Minister of Canada

"Louis Armstrong said you have to live a life.

And that's right. If you don't live a life,

you don't got nothin' to come out your horn."

~Sally Field (b. 1946)

In the mountains of truth you will never climb in vain:

either you will get up higher today

or you will exercise your strength

so as to be able to get up higher tomorrow.

-Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

"The notion of a Christian commonwealth should be exploded forever..

.Government should protect every man in thinking

and speaking freely, and see that one does not abuse another.

The liberty I contend for is more than toleration.

The very idea of toleration is despicable;

it supposes that some have a pre-eminence above the rest

to grant indulgence, whereas all should be equally free,

Jews, Turks, Pagans and Christians."

John Leland   (May 14, 1754 – January 14, 1841)

Found For Friday

John opened a small boutique restaurant called “Taste!” downtown, but it folded almost immediately because neither he nor anyone else, including professional CPAs he hired, could make his financial numbers work.

It turns out, there’s no accounting for taste.
