Can I wait until the trees start changing and go to Tennessee and look for a house?

(Remember you have to be able to get there by car)

Bonus Question:

Ok so what was the last thing that had you saying

Ewww what's that smell ?
A head injury (explains a lot doesn't it) killed a lot of my sense of smell 20 yrs ago so it's been a while. I do remember a very dead, it stinketh, mouse in the keyboard of the piano at church. It would get particularly bad when playing high notes.


Extra Credit Question:


Did you or will you be having a special celebration for your "Your age matches your Birthyear" Birthday ?
We, who were born near Christmas, never have a special celebration. "Let's get together and celebrate his birthday and Christmas" I suppose if you have to share a celebration with anybody Jesus would be the best. My birthday is Dec 21 and it's never been special.

Just For Fun:

Last time someone said to you

No, it's just your imagination ?
When I was hallucinating, from the pain meds, in the hospital, after heart surgery. I was having a great day until then.

Which Destination will you be driving to ?

(Remember you have to be able to get there by car) The kind of road trip I would love is where you get up in the morning, pick a direction, and start driving. At the end of the day, you get a room, then get up the next morning and decide which direction to go from there. Eventually you'll end up at home!

Bonus Question:

Ok so what was the last thing that had you saying

Ewww what's that smell ? Same as my one hit wonder from the other day, dead skunk in the middle of the road! lol


Extra Credit Question:


Did you or will you be having a special celebration for your "Your age matches your Birthyear" Birthday ? I got 3 more years and it will probably be just like any other birthday.

Just For Fun:

Last time someone said to you

No, it's just your imagination ? My wife swears I told her something the other day.

OK make me jealous Anyone seeing any signs of Autumn yet ?Too early to see any yet! Except for the humming birds emptying my feeder like crazy getting ready to migrate.

We do have a few trees that are showing some leaf changes and we've seen a few leaves down already, but nothing close to the way it will look a month from now.

National Neighborhood Day

Didn't we just have one of these?

Sympathy to the Kennedy family, I laughed until I cried at the memorial service on tv last night. Some great stories. My mortality is staring at me this summer with all the deaths of icons I grew up with.
Happy to see that folks seem to be spared the brunt of a big storm on the coast.
Thankful for friends on C-D. You have all helped me make this transition to my new life in Montana.

We, who were born near Christmas, never have a special celebration. "Let's get together and celebrate his birthday and Christmas" I suppose if you have to share a celebration with anybody Jesus would be the best. My birthday is Dec 21 and it's never been special.
My birthday is the 17th so I know just what you are talking about! December birthdays are really no fun, at least not here in the midwest when the weather is usually cold, windy and as a bonus - possibly snowy or icy as well! DH always wants to take me out but I would just rather stay at home when it's like that!
