Anger because you’ve been done wrong can cause you to want to get even. This is wrong. Forgiveness and mentally working through it (AND PRAYER) and then moving on in life is the best way.
Yesterday when I was driving around in Tulsa I thought of a song that I hadn’t heard in years. It’s called the Eye In The Sky by the Alan Parson’s Project. I looked it up on YouTube.

I’ve been trying to read the Bible through since January. I listen to it in audio while I read along with the text on Heartlight’s website. I just started the old testament book of Daniel. I have much respect for Daniel because he was seriously dedicated to God all his life.

I gotta watch an elderly lady today. I’ll be there for about four hours. Sue who also takes care of the elderly lady would like for me to clean the house too. I’m glad I work for Sue. She’s firm and straight forward with me as my boss but then she’s kind to me as a friend and in paying me. She’s almost 77years old and still takes care of the 93 year old woman she has taken care of for 16 years. I want to be able to still do things like Sue does when I get that old. I admire and learn from her.

Hey, I’ve been settling into mommahood lately. Calming down and putting more effort into my offspring, not the “hype yourself up” attitude you get when you’re trying to get ahead in your job. I’m curious what would happen if we were blessed with a new baby.

Samuel, my son, is growing up real fast. Just three years to college. The rest are close behind. I hope I can figure out a way to earn money at home to focus on them more. This morning as I awoke, a song was running through my head.
Here are two clips of Harry Chapin’s unforgettable song, Cat’s In the Cradle:


In the future when they’re gone and living in the grown up world, I soooooo hope I can look back and say I did the best I could with my four most prized possessions.

18 Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel,
Who alone works wonders.
19 And blessed be His glorious name forever;
And may the whole earth be filled with His glory.
Amen, and Amen.

I found another good quote on the Mrs. Happy Housewife site. You should just go there and check her site out. She has several interesting aspects. I can go there and read the Bible online with an audio and then have access to the best devotional readings. And then in the upper lefthand corner she searches out interesting websites for each day during the week.
The quote encourages always remember to help others. Even when I get old I don’t want to just sit in an easy chair and waste my time on TV.

Here’s some history you probably haven’t heard. Cecil Dill is a manualist, someone who makes music with just his hands. He’s not alive now. He was popular in the 1930’s. Watch and enjoy these videos:

You gotta read this quote I found on the Mrs. Happy Housewife blog (my favorite) and then you need to go pick out a good book and read it to the very end.
“Once upon a time in the dead of winter in the Dakota territory, Theodore Roosevelt took off in a makeshift boat down the Little Missouri River in pursuit of a couple of thieves who had stolen his prized rowboat.

This blog entry is dedicated my sweet friend that I used to work with. He was from Kentucky and he liked this song. I just now found it on Youtube. I miss talking to him and several others that I would joke around with alot. I hope it brings a smile . . .No, actually I hope it makes him pretend like he’s the lead singer with an air guitar!
