Natural Highs

Several of my friends and children have been sending a list of natural highs.
Most are pretty neat but as my oldest says your own are special so here goes mine:
1. Sleep late
2.Having my dog snuggle up to me when it is cool
3.Leaving the window open when it is still cool so you can snuggle up in blankets
4.Having flowers given to me for no reason ( would love to feel that experience)
5.Dancing to "once, twice, three times a lady"
6.Watching the sun set on a spring nite
7.Having "Donuts" for breakfast
8. Sharing a cup of coffee with someone you love
9.Sitting across from one of my siblings and just being able to have a conversation
10. Sharing a private moment with a Grandchild
11. A phone call from a Grandchild
12. Cards on my b-day and Mothers day.
13. Going out to lunch with any of my children
14. Singing Christmas songs with my husband as we drive down the road
15.Having a hug from a friend when times are rough
16.Having my dog excited to see me every time
17.Enjoying a joke on e-mail
18.Being able to help someone
I could go on and on but these will do for now. Have a great day enjoy the weekend!!

Spring and Peace

Well, the flowers are blooming aand the garden is coming up, birds are singing every
morning and things are green all over.
The nasty divorce is still going on but we will not dwell on it and enjoy the beauty
and peace sounds of spring.
The neighbors are starting up garden tractors and lawn mowers and planting of
everything has begun.
The oldest grandson will graduate high school in a few weeks, he has made the
family proud as he has had very good grades resulting in some scholarships for
college. The whole family will have a party for him as we did his older sister to
celebrate his graduation.
The youngest granddaughter will have her first communion this sunday and as cute
as she is will look like a little angel. I am looking forward to seeing that. Altho I will
remember her mothers first communion when someones veil caught on fire as
some nitwit at the church decided to use real candles in the midst of several dozen
little girls with flowing veils. Get the picture??
So spring for our family will be one of celebration and happiness and we will all pray the
divorce will be over soon and our oldest daughter can have peace in her life all the
time and not just brief moments when she can get away.
In case I have not told you often enough I am very proud of you Kate and love
you more than mere words can express. Hold your beautiful head up high as this
too will pass.

Divorce

I have come to the conclusion that one of the nastiest words on this earth
is divorce. My own divorce some 20 + years ago was the most degrading,
hateful, hurtful experience. This week I sat in the courtroom of this Red-neck
town of ours and saw my oldest daughter go thru part of hers. I will be the first to
admit that none of my children are perfect but there is a limit of what one
must suffer thru in a divorce. Her soon to be ex (and not a moment too soon for me) and his lawyer were sitting very close together as they held hands under the table and
she constantly winked at him. Gee have I been out of the courts so long that
this is proper lawyer-client behavior???? God alone must have held me in my
seat as I had the strongest urge to slap the Sh-- out of two people.
I am so glad to get this so-called man out of the family, my daughter deserves
a lot better. I don't care if she finds someone who doesn't have much money
just as long as she is treated well and she is happy as they are two things
that money cann't buy.
Oh well so much for the rantings of a very mad mother, but Mike Schuller
in my book you and your whore gal-friends and your pathetic so called laywer
deserve all the bed things coming your way!!!!

SPRING IS HERE

Much to my youngest daughters dismay I do type some in non-caps!! Oh happy
day it seems that spring has finally arrived. My little Humming birds are back at the feeder
my husband says I have the mixture too strong and they get drunk, oh well
they are happy and constantly come over to me when I am outside to tell
me so.
We have had so much rain in our neck of the woods it looks like a rain forest here,
mainly because it is damp and wet all over and the plants have plenty of water and
plant food to get them started so they are growing like crazy.
Fluffie bless her lil goofy pomerian heart has brought upon herself to teach the new
pup Oscar to go hop in the mud puddles and into several of the large holes
left by the MR. when he last had a bull dozier to play with. Thanks Fluffie, now I
can buy the jumbo size of dog shampoo as I will have two dogs to constantly
wash!!!! Oscar is in the chewing mod now, I have put up most everything I can
find but the lil joker just decided to start chewing on the door facings instead!!
He is finding out what the outside pen is for!! It is sunny today and the fresh air will
do him good. He seems to weigh about twice what the pomerian does but he is not
up to the shepard yet. Wonder how large he will end up??
Well, happy spring to all, enjoy the beauty around you.
