So, whats the diff in this and facebook?
When I wake up in the morning I have wet ears. Our Church organist had wet ears and it was good to know I wasn't alone. Anyway I forget and put my hearing aid in and it gurgles. First mistake, not a good way to start the day. Must remember to put QTips by my bed. Tornado in Greece last nite. While listening to my talk show the radio went dead. Oh, no another cord. I might qualify for a job in a delivery room. This interesting author was talking about ghosts this is the season for it. Turned out I had no control over cords going across the Atlantic. Anyway, he doesn't believe in Ghosts. Tell the children, 'cause he has to know. Because I have short term memory I don't retain a lot. Sunday nite I listened to an author who has written about the downfall of Countries since the beginning of time. In one of the worldwide falls Italy came out on top and the man in charge was Mussolini, of all people, simply because he was upbeat. Jenny will be glad to know that. He did say "our energy, in the future, will come from above". So, of course, I thought now we will put God back in our schools. No, turns out it will be my daughter. It will be satellite's placed in the air and like computers and cell phones energy will be transmitted to earth. Guess the Government will own that too, like the Banks, unless my grandchildren put on their thinking caps. He also told of how one sharp country was selling tulip bulbs, one bulb for a great amount of money and this small store owner bought one and a sailor came in his store, the sailor was hungry, took bread out of his sack and cut up the tulip bulb, thinking it was an onion. Some nites the programs are boring and I fall asleep, but for the past two nites I have been awake until 4 AM. My neighbor just came to the door and I was relieved her hair didn't look any better than mine. 10/14/09 Andrea and Brian's one year anniversary. I loved those apples.

Beginning something new

So, this is a blog. I looked the word up in the dictionary and it's not there. Whoever thought of "blog". Since my children turned ten they have taught me everything I know, what a learning experience it has been. After coffee the first thing I do is turn on this computer and then I am stuck for the rest of the day. Actually, I think this is going to be better than playing games. I am addicted. Not sure if one uses paragraphs on this but my daughter, the teacher, will correct me.
My son, who has been known since his youth as a bush cutter, had cut my bushes but because they had grown a little, as bushes do, I decided to trim them. I lugged my trusty electric cutter from the garage, with the cord, plugged it in and, bravo, it worked and I started cutting away. Suddenly, it stopped. I came in the house, checked the cord at both ends. Back outside to try again, happened to look down and saw I had cut the cord. Got a knife and other tools and prepared to splice the cord. Flash, another cord in the garage. After chatting with my neighbor at her window I completed the task. I was shaking so when I got in the house and was thinking I had had my exercise for the day, no need to walk around the block, as we are told to do. I thought, my children think I can do anything and they let me. All because my grandson told his Mother "let her do it, it keeps her young". He is so wise. All my days are not so exciting.10/13/08
