This song is gonna be a big hit!! Can we all go to Nashville for this? Huh? After all, Nashville's just down the road a piece from Bama, my 2nd home (except it's cold in the winter). :)-->

Sounds like one of my uncouth children. Can't take her anywhere. If you take her to a nice restaurant, she'll still eat with her fingers. Guess there must be some hillbilly on the other side of the family. -->

Not if you cut it with a fork and knife.

Big difference. Coffee klatch is much more cassual. Don't forget the hats and gloves. Got to have those.

I love that picture. But, then again being a southern lady, I would. BTW, the next high tea is scheduled for Oct 1, you coming?

Not only removal but healing of the bruising. :)-->

Good thing I was in NC LAST week. You would have thought that I brought Ophelia with me from FL.

Where is he from?

According to the rules, he has to be a Greasespotter, unless there is something about Michael Brown that I don't know.

I'm so sorry too for all the fighting. Knowing Michael and his heart, I know all the pain that he has gone through.

This is the memorial section, so please don't flame this. I was there. I saw with my eyes all that happened. There were no bad guys, only a bad situation, but like any bad situation, it's something we can learn from. If Terri would have had a living will or a DNR, everything else would have been a moot point. Like anybody else that is going through bad times, all we can do for Michael Schiavo, the Shindlers, and Judge Greer is pray for them.

As for me and my fellow-hospice workers, it's just business as usual doing our best to take care of our patients so that they can be cared for with the most care and dignity that they deserve in their last days. Every morning, before I start my day at work, I pray for all my patients and my fellow-laborers in the pallitive care field. All of us at The Hospice of the FL Suncoast were recognized by the National Council of Hospice & Pallitive Professional with the 2005 Heart of hospice Award, which is the highest honor given to any hospice. Our award was for courage and caring, our reward is our patients and their families.

Been there Eagle. You have my prayers.

Could that be Tennesee Tuxedo and Friends?

How are Christine and Greg doing?

No, it doesn't. I like it. Besides, like Ted says, it's supposed to be fun. (Even for us creatively challenged ones. There has to be some sort of support group for that, isn't there?)

Ted are you president of the club? Can I join? Are there any membership dues? When/Where does it meet? I need details before it's too late. -->

I LOVE your sign off quote. It has been a favorite of mine

That poem by Robert Frost has always been my favorite.

MJ

You had stated "I thinksurvivers are indifferent. we survive."

On my part, I'd like to differ. As a survivor of many things that no person should have to go through, I don't consider myself as indifferent. I consider myself a victor and proud to be a survivor. I believe going through some of the things that I have has instead given me more compassion towards the hurting and broken-hearted, because I've been there.

Kathy

As with everything, there are pros and cons. Now, with being single, like you said you don't enjoy the protection that you have when you're in a marriage relationship. But, you also don't have to answer to anybody else. If you have a passion for something, all you have to answer to is God. You don't have to answer to another.

Being a single mother is harder at times, but if you have a support system, not impossible. My children are all grown and each are successful in their own ways, so I guess I've done my job.

I've been both married and single. I can't say that one is better than the other; just different.

Sudo,

But the big monkey thing...now I'm wondering ... what was that all about?

Mighty Joe Young. I think Disney did a remake of it a few years back, but of course you really can't remake a classic.

Thanks Sudo. They don't make them like that anymore.

The church I go to also has awesome praise and worship and it's not all scripted. During some of the services, I work the LDS (laser display system) and you never know what's going to happen next. You just have to trust that God won't let you down (and He doesn't).

As far as raising holy hands, it is in the Bible in Ps 28:2 and I Tim 2:8. A few weeks ago, I saw something in church that reminded me of our relationship with our Heavenly Father. There was a dad holding his little child's hand to take him to kids' church. That child had to reach up in order to hold onto the hand. That's when I saw the connection: we raise our hands to God, as He reaches down to guide, direct, and/or comfort us because He is our Dad. It confirms that connection that we have with God.
