Meals From Here

Hey Everbody! Here’s a pic of my X-mas eve dinner: Van Camp’s beans (w/extra ham pcs., cheese, grn. peppers and onion added), Bisquick apple shortcake, and chocolate coffee (that was modest enough, huh?)…oh, and also 2 aspirin and one Tramadol for crashing into that parking sign on my bike today (sure glad I wore that helmet!). Merry Christmas to everyone and may God Bless!

Notes From There

“There is often less danger in the things we fear than in the things we desire.”  John Carlton Collins

I remember when I was a young boy walking to school I was constantly on guard for some large bullying dog way-laying me.  And so I was prudent to hide sticks and stones at strategic points along the way just for protection.  But, once at school, there loomed yet an even greater menace: there would always be that same pretty face creeping into my mind trying to waylay me from my studies, too.  To this day I’m not sure which was worse: the danger of getting bit by a big dog or being bit by love and hurt forever after by that doggone LeAnn Gifford!
