Do other's actions affect our lives?

Yes, I believe they do. What do you think? When someone you spend a lot of time with is negative in their words, actions, and deeds, it brings down the other. It's possible to sink to the level of the other persons' actions. To be put down in public gives a general feelings of unworthiness. In order to get out from under this situation, one must either separate from the person, or become stronger to rise above, and let many things fall off and go behind. The second part is the more difficult. Now, if a third party were to notice this negativity, and mention it, it could bring about a whole different atmosphere. Here's hoping......

For Men Only

A thought just came to me for the men. If you are one of the men on this planet trying to figure out what makes women tick, you may as well give it up! Has anyone ever figured it out yet? :) If you're married, just say "yes, dear". If you are not yet married, you may want to give it a second thought, if you can't swallow and say "yes, dear".

Our Fine Men

If you know of anyone, are related to, married to, or Love anyone in our military in the past or in the present, please remember them each and every one of them, every day. Without them, we are not much. They are trained to give their lives for us, if necessary. I am appalled when I hear how some of OUR very own men are treated if they are not able to complete their service for good reason; or, they come back HOME to US with their bodies or minds damaged in some way. Our government needs to recognize these men and bow down to them by supporting them in every way possible, no matter what the cost. They have paid with their own lives for what they do for us every single day. Since my grandson chose to serve, I have paid more attention to all of this, and let me tell you, they deserve our love and respect every day of their lives. Let's hear it for OUR GUYS!!!! HURRAH! YEAH! WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!! WE ARE PROUD OF YOU!! and, THANK YOU ALL!

Rain all day

Today, I proctored an exam....it's actually work for pay. Not bad for a few hours hobnobbing with the educated, future Lawyers. Then lunch at the BonVie, French restaurant in the Selby/Dale area of St. Paul, MN. This area has changed drastically, for the better, over the years; and has several very nice restaurants lining the streets for many blocks. You can see the top of the St. Paul Cathedral from our vantage point. It would have been fun to walk down the street and find the "underground" bookstore owned by none other than Garrison Keillor. It was a rainy day, so we will put that off until another day.

For now; just remember a day is never "just another day"; it's a memory in the making. Make the most of every one you have.

This looks like a serious attempt at blogging. There's not much to say right now, except that it's a lovely day in MN.
