I apologize for missing a few days, but I am traveling this week; this morning I am in Demopolis, “the City of the People.” For your perusal, I have pulled from the files an old A&J from 1989. There was a lot of this sort of interaction in the early years of Arlo & Janis. Janis’ self-image was not very strong, to say the least. She matured considerably over the years and, as a result, began to be drawn better.

And finally a wish for all of us in the Village, forever young.

Permit me to add that, if you have something nice to say to a person, DO it! You never know when it’ll be too late. I am so thankful that my HS friend who died just before Halloween lived long enough to read that she was held in high esteem. Flirtatious? No; a simply statement of facts. By the time she was diagnosed with glioblastoma, she was already less able to comprehend & death ensued 13 weeks later. There was no other warning, and we had reconnected less than 2 years earlier after a gap of 57 years.
“simple” – sheeesh.
Debbe, something nice and peaceful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Hr8tZx_cXo&list=PL76VeoRSTi4cclTRX1nSQC6mhcfVtsFkE

You are so right. There is no way back and we may have no tomorrow’s, we have today to say and do what we can. I mean this in a positive way my friends. Just don’t keep putting it off. If ever you wanted to live, do it today and make today the best day of your life.
Tell someone you care, you are appreciative, you respect them. It doesn’t have to be huge. I do this every single day, try to connect with those I encounter randomly even. You can change lives but the one who benefits most is you, for your life will truly change.

And B’ugs back at you
Good morning Villagers…
Going to get up to almost 70 here in SIN today….then it’s all down hill tomorrow…….rats!!!
Have to prep Dad for doctor’s appt. today, and that’s not fun. He fusses while I sponge bathe him, and I just growl back at him. I try to soak his feet is warm sudsy water a few times a week all the time he growls. The foot doctor said it helps with circulation.
My friend Wilma is taking us. Maybe we’ll take a little road trip out by the lake afterwards. Dad like’s road tripping.
Oh, and he has this clock that on the hour the clanging of bells, train whistle, and the power of a locomotive goes off. It is light sensitive…Amen. Heard that clock go off one morning at five am and about hit the flipping ceiling….Dad was up.
Going to start back on my cross stitching again…have put it aside for several weeks now.
Love today’s real time…and there is a lot of truth to that…a purring cat on your lap does help with stress…little Miss Fluff and Puff is one of those here.
later……
GR 😉 always will be……

….and if you listen, one can tell the differences in their voices….two great singers.
Mark, thanks for the links….saved them under ‘stress relief’ 🙂
What I enjoy about the video of ‘While My……’ was the energy Prince put into that song. And also the fact that George’s son was playing guitar….he favors his father in more ways than one.

don’t ya know this had to hurt 🙂

Oh my cat….just had to share this with the whole village…..what a tribute to Naomi Judd

Debbe, one word for that cat video: Ouch! I was working yesterday and one of the kittens decided it would be fun to leap at the back of my mesh-backed chair while I was in it. I nearly jumped out of the chair when those claws hit my back.
Parent fussing w/ nest material around 2 eggs, but not far enough off for me to see if there’s a third. Didn’t one of you report 3? Peace,

Good morning all!!
Debbe, my mom did not hear alarm clocks, so Daddy got her one that went “woop woop” and got progressively louder. It would wake up everybody else in the house, but not Mom.
I haven’t been working on my cross stitching lately, either. I have several projects I need to do for friends, but I had to order the fabric to get it big enough. And I have several pieces started that I have put back for one reason or another. As the saying goes, if God lets me live long enough to finish the projects I have right now I might never die!
Jean, this clock would wake the dead, but as I’ve said it is light sensitive and does not go off at night unless the light is on.
Yeah, I’ve had this cross stitch project going for well over 30 years 🙂 Do I hear the word procrastinator???
Good morning Jackie 🙂
Dad’s bath is done, feet soaked and I’ve worn him out….napping now. Time to do a little cleaning in the kitchen.
Dad has a very little appetite…one time he left some food on his plate, and wanted a cookie….I looked at him and said if he had room for a cookie, he could finish cleaning his plate…yes, I feel like the parent here, but I would not have it any other way. On the wall hangs a little sign that reads “Be nice to your children…they pick your nursing home” 🙂
There are times I use that leverage to get him to eat and drink more liquids….works for me and more importantly for him.
Mark, hope you don’t get cat scratch fever (there’s a song there somewhere)
Think I’ll check on the Iditarod…..mush on.
later friends……
has that giraffe been born yet?
Good morning. Up early for me. It is a beautiful day in Oklahoma. Lay in bed not wanting to get up. Walked out on private patio and decided to be inspired to replant that area where many of herbs live with herbs and annuals today.
It is that kind of day. But first I must go buy bird seed, a 100# to refill feeders, cat and dog food, go to post office and hardware store.
There are a lot of friends who will want to hear about travels with Dickens.
TIP BlogSpot. It’s really Polyhymnia, a Muse. Peace,
