Prayer

at 11/01/08 1:01PM

There is so much to pray for. Right now our country seems to be crying out for prayer. The economy and the election remind us that times are hard. We need to pray. But the need has always been there. I received an e-mail this morning from a good friend, Beverly Atkins. Her husband, Tim, has just been diagnosed with kidney cancer. Tim and Bev moved from Arkansas to Hawaii a few years ago. As beautiful as their surroundings are, life still goes on and bad things still happen. They need prayer. I've always contended, though, that we mustn't forget those who are lost when we pray. Their situation is so much more tenuous. Their need is immediate. Pray daily for them. And, of course, we must pray for our own strength to help ourselves and all those in need. Help us, Lord.
Paula

You are so right.

I remember Beverly & Tim, but did not know they had moved to Hawaii. We will keep them in our prayers.

Thanks for this.

Good thoughts. I don't remember them, but the name sounds familiar.

that's terrible about Tim.
I echo your call for prayer. Always in need, but especially now.

Well, in defense of the Ft. Smith School System, they did not create the above cover. The magazine was responsible for the mistake. It did cause a stir, however.

Political Season

at 10/04/08 10:39AM

It's a cool and rainy Saturday morning, so what better way to spend your time than to take a political quiz. OK lots of better ways, but my husband sent me a link to a quiz and in a few minutes I found out I'm for McCain. It's kind of fun. I've placed it under my links (it's all that's there, because I just figured that out.) Try it. It's fun. By the way, I'm ALL THE WAY for McCain. I answered every question in his favor.

The VP debate was interesting. I thought Sarah did very well.

I've said about all I know about politics. Glad I was able to help.
PD

I'm not voting for McCain, I'm voting against Obama and for Palin. Lame excuse, I know.

by sharon at 10/04/08 11:06AM
Hummm.... I think when you vote for Palin, you will vote for McCain.

by peekadoo at 10/04/08 11:37AM
palin did well...will take the quiz you linked. Thanks! Our choices are limited for leadership. Thankfully God is really in charge of it all!

by my3sons at 10/04/08 12:05PM
Politics has really bored me this time.

by basil60 at 10/06/08 8:22AM
It's possible to divorce yourself, intellectually from McCain, and vote for Palin.. Yes it is..

by herbberkley at 10/07/08 4:42PM
I took that quiz and it said I was voting for Palin.. You betcha..

by herbberkley at 10/07/08 6:29PM
We have a new baby in the family. Go here to see.

We have an old turkey!

Tooth update

at 09/20/08 2:04PM

I will be crowned. That equals a Christmas present (at least) in value. Oh well. Eating is important. Actually, my tooth hurts less now than it did before. The dentist said that it was probably cracked, and the movement around the crack was what I've been feeling lately.

In other news...I have no other news. May paint laundry room. Weather is nice. Lost a couple of pounds. Are you yawning yet?
PD

how can a post about a tooth make me yawn? I would say it is worth more than "a" christmas present!!!

by sharon at 09/20/08 2:40PM
I know of few women who deserve the crown as much as you! We may have sold our house today! We will know for sure next week.

by wberk at 09/20/08 2:48PM
Your picture blurb is bragadocious................j/k Thank you for doing such a good job! It was beautiful!

by basil60 at 09/20/08 5:10PM
Your correct spelling of bragadocious is bragadocious.

by peekadoo at 09/20/08 7:47PM
(W e have an inside bragadocious joke.)

Fun Trips

at 09/16/08 7:29PM

I've had a couple of fun trips lately. I went to Searcy to see my nephew get married, then two weeks later went to Kansas to a reception held for him and his bride. Go to her blog to see pictures of the Kansas event. Family times are always fun. My only downfall is the food. I tend to excuse myself on these occasions to eat as I please. Now I must pay. Oh well.

Today I broke a tooth. I'm not eating much until Thursday when I go to the dentist!!
PD

I have an spare set you can borrow. Want me to overnight them to ya?

New Technology

at 08/15/08 10:33PM

I haven't been on Pleo much lately, because I've been preoccupied. I have a new hand-me-down Iphone. When my husband upgrades, I get the leftovers! And I'm having a great time. In fact,this entry is via the phone! The principal at one of my schools was so impressed, she ran out and bought one,too. Ahh, the life of a nerd.
PD

Everyone that I know that has an iPhone loves it!

Did you see the picture that looks like Owen is "ho hum"ing at your iPhone?

by sharon at 09/06/08 5:02PM
They are in the mail. I have no idea how the Kansas package got there before the Greenwood package. Do you know anyone in the postal service you can talk to about this???

Actually, if you can click on it you'll see it a little better.
