I never thought i was scared of dying until i reached my age and starting seeing doctors. doctors are very scary because i can tell when they are impatient and wish i would just pay up and go away. they seem to always have their minds on the watch on their wrists. i like it better when they don't bother to even pretend. they should have a professional communicator talk for them. they just know pills and platitudes. sorry, but if they were applying for a job, they would not pass muster when i was in charge. they tend to have severe attitude and communication problems. this old condition is not good unless you have loving family. few are blessed with that. when you realize that it is likely too late.

Ya'll look like you're having so much fun over here that I thought I would like to join in. I'm a 60' something retired bead store owner from the Ozarks who can't stand to sit still. I am an artist, make jewelry, do wirewrapping, paint, garden, and my husband and I are rock hounders, and we cut and polish our own stones for jewelry. Looking for an Airstream trailer to travel in maybe next year. What about you?

Absolutely! Last week I posted a request that people pray for my best friend and she got more than 40 responses. She has looked and read them over and over and finds comfort in them.

Thank you so much for your prayers. She thanks you too.

Feel free to share how the power of prayer has helped you so we can all continue to gain strength in it's power.

Like does a depressed or manic state require medication....for life?
Or do you think they're over-the-top money making scammers....

They're like the all knowing priests of yesterday. Everybody tends to take their word as true.....

of the mentality of that time?
Like I think there's a biiig generational gap between the baby boomers and people born in the 70's...
And I don't really understand what people back then had to deal with.
Will old movies help me understand?

With bad acting I think you can see through people more.....

Jock was digging peat at his croft when a passing American tourist asks,

"How much land do you have here?"

"About two acres" Jock replies.

"You know back home it takes me a day to drive around my ranch !" the American boasts.

"Aye", says Jock " I once had a car like that."

I was just studying about some Tibetan tribes that practice "fraternal polyandry" that is where two, three or four brothers share one wife. What do you guys think about this?
Remember not all cultures are as sex obsessed as most Western Cultures.

Nothing is as easy as it looks.
To succeed in politics, it is often necessary to rise above your principles.
Nature always sides with the hidden flaw.
Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view.
Two wrongs are only the beginning.
If you perceive that there are four possible ways in which a procedure can go wrong, and circumvent these, then a fifth way, unprepared for, will promptly develop.
Nothing is as easy as it looks.
Every solution breeds new problems..
If there is a worse time for something to go wrong, it will happen then..
If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

Exceptions prove the rule ... and wreck the budget.
Whenever you set out to do something, something else must be done first.
It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious.
If there is a possibility of several things going wrong, the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong.
Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse.
Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
Trust everybody ... then cut the cards.
Whenever you set out to do something, something else must be done first.
Everything takes longer than you think..
Two wrongs are only the beginning.

very nice thing to do?It is good luck to kiss under the mistletoe. It is bad luck to deliberately to avoid doing this.


Take three leaves of holly and on them prick the initials of three of your admirers. On Christmas Eve place the leaves under your pillow, and it is said that the one whom you will marry will appear to you in a dream.


Sew nine holly-leaves on to your nighttime clothing, borrow a wedding ring and place it on the third finger of your left hand, and then go to bed. During the night, your future husband will appear to you in a vision.


Make a chain of holly, mistletoe and juniper, and tie an acorn between each link. You need to have 2 other girls to assist you. At midnight on Christmas Eve the 3 of you must go into a room where a fire is lit, lock the door, hang the key over the mantelpiece and open the window wide. Then wrap the chain, which you have made around a log and sprinkle it with oil, a few pinches of salt and some earth. The log and chain must be placed on the fire and all lights turned out. Each girl sits around the fire with a prayer-book upon her knees, opened at the marriage service. As soon as the chain has been burnt, it is said that each girl will see the vision of her future husband crossing the room. If such a vision does not appear to a girl, she will never marry; or if she sees a phantom, such as a skeleton, which causes fear, it is also taken to be a sign that she will remain a spinster.


Tie a sprig of holly to each leg of your bedstead, and before you go to bed eat a roasted apple. Your future partner in marriage will come and speak to you in your dreams.


The yule log should be lit by a piece of the log used on the previous Christmas. Once that is done, no evil spirit can then enter into the house. The remains of the Yule log were also considered lucky, and would be a protection against lightning or fire.

O'Ryan staggered home very late after another evening
with his drinking buddy, Paddy. He took off his shoes to avoid waking his wife,
Mary. He tiptoed as quietly as he could toward the stairs leading
to their up stairs bedroom, but misjudged the bottom step. As he caught
himself by grabbing the banister, his body swung around and he landed
heavily on his rump. A whiskey bottle in each back pocket broke and
made the landing especially painful. Managing not to yell, Flynn
sprung up, pulled down his pants, and looked in the hall mirror to see
that his butt cheeks were cut and bleeding. He managed to quietly
find a full box of Band-Aids and began putting a Band-Aid as best he could
on each place he saw blood. He then hid the now almost empty Band-Aid box
and shuffled and stumbled his way to bed. In the morning, Flynn woke up
with searing pain in both his head and butt and Mary staring at him from
across the room. She said, "You were drunk again last night weren't
you?"
22 hours ago - 3 days left to answer.
Additional Details
22 hours ago

" Flynn said, "Why do you say such a mean thing? " Well, "
Mary said, "it could be the open front door, it could be the broken glass at the
bottom of the stairs, it could be the drops of blood trailing through
the house, it could be your bloodshot eyes, but mostly.....it's
all those Band-Aids stuck on the hall mirror!".
