Take Advantage Of Your Time
One week ago we had a little birthday party for my Great-Great Uncle Dick. There was a special voice of God directing Mom and possibly Great Aunt Helen about last Wednesday. They were determined to spend time with him for his birthday. Thank God we did! This morning Aunt Helen couldn’t get a hold of…

Friday Night
The temperature has risen around here. It has been in the 90’s range. Anywhere from 94 to 96 I believe are the numbers I have seen on the car monitor during the past few days. Going back and forth like we did was stressful enough on all of us in this heat, but that evening…

Watching some of the Jewish interviews on Fox…

Flowers
Until this week I didn’t realize how much Sunflowers were tied to love and weddings. I would never have thought this particular flower should be one to truly think about in my own bouquet or at least in the 3rd wedding Anniversary which may be something I may have to nudge in his direction if…

The RMS Titanic
There are so many facets to my education of the Titanic in different fashions during my thirty some years. One of the early manifestations of learning about this ship wreck was a movie we watched up at the Alsman house. I specifically remember watching my Uncle Tony make one of my brilliant birthday cakes while…

Gutting Our Closest Ally
Last year Congress passed a bill that would use money from the IRS Agents that no American really wants to add to the agency. A sliver of that money would have already paid for the money that is essential for our close ally, Israel in their time of need. However… a year later Schumer won’t…
