Angelina Jolie

Was going to go to Bosnia to see Angie get her award but decided to visit my daughter in North Carolia instead. Are you going to Bosnia?

Pennies

Not much you can do with pennies except maybe collect them in a jar. I keep mine in a sort of jug. I saw a lady try to put pennies in a soda vending machine. She could only put in one penny because it kept rejecting it and would fall in the coin return. After a few tries she gave up. I felt kind of bad for her and pointed out a free coffee machine. She seemed happier. What do you do with your pennies?

Well Hello!

I was driving my yellow VW Beetle with my windows down when I came to a stop sign. A female type person was standing there and gave me a familiar hello! I asked her if she needed a ride downtown where I was heading. She was delighted and got in my car. On the way she was getting a puzzled look in her eyes. Then she asked are you John So and so? I embarrassingly replied no. Then asked her if her name was Kim? She said no. After a few more moments of silence I apologized and explained I thought was Kim and she did the same saying she thought I was John. Well. I gave her a ride downtown which was not really that far and she thanked me and hurried away. Have you ever had this experience?

Children keep us smiling.

My sister sent me this email:

A fun statment made by my 4 year old grandson, Logan, as he Mary and Duncan stopped for Mary's coffee. "Mommy, why do we always have to go to Dunkin Donuts? Can't we go to Logan's Donuts?"
Have a Fun Day!!!!
Mare
Which Donute place do you go to?

Walmart Shopper

Needed a garbage can for my house so I saw one while shopping at Walmart. I picked it up and put it in my cart. It had a lid on it which made me happy because I saw a few without a lid. As I wheeled away a Walmart person stopped me and informed me that the garbage can I put in my basket was for garbage. I questionably smiled and laughingly related that I was buying it to put garbage in it. He smiled back took the lid off the can, that was in my cart, and educated me by showing me there was already garbage in it. Which made sense because it did feel a little heavy when I put it in my cart. He then gently and professionally escorted me to the section where I could buy a brand new empty on. Are you a Walmart shopper?

In Laws no joke.

I just found out my former father-in-law just turned 90. He is an amazing, very intelligent and interesting person. Unfortunately his wife is also still alive. God bless. How are your in-laws doing?

Just a fine day.

The weather is nice. I am enjoying Mob Wives. Ate some Coconut M&M's. They were good but not very coco-nutty. Foot slipped off my break and hit the gas while driving. A little exciting but recovered and was safe. Still volunteering at the Hospital. The children that visit like our toys so much they take them home. So we get to buy more. What is fun is I get to say hello to you. Are you enjoying Fathers Day? I hope you are.

Jesus has a sister.

I went to church the other day and found out Jesus has a sister and she attends the same church I do. In church there is a hugh statue of Jesus and his sister that comes to church looks just like him. The statue is tall; she is tall. In fact they both have the same eyes, nose, hair and facial expression. I was in awe and was staring at her when she happened to look my way. I turned my head real quick so I would not get smited or something.
She is pretty in her own statuesque way so I have to be careful none of those deadly sins creep into my thoughts. I did wonder what it would be like to date her. What do you think it would be like to be on a date with her?

Babies Galore.

My niece just had her second baby boy at the hospital I volunteer at. I think that was pretty special. I seem to be writing a lot about babies. Any new babies in your life?

And One Angel

I had a dream my Grandfather and I went fishing. He had passed away a long time ago and I have never dreamed of him. This night we fished and caught some big fish. Then he had to introduce a young girl to me. I was confused about this; still I met her. Then as I started to have a conversation with her, my Grandfather walked away and was gone. The next day my Granddaughter called to announce her mother, my daughter, was going to have a baby the end of December. That would make 5 and one little angel in heaven in her family. Was my grandfather trying to tell me this? Did you ever have a similar dream? If you do tell my Grandfather Hello and ask him what is he doing in your dream. He does get around.

Hacked, sacked and whatever.

My email was compromised and all my email contacts were lucky enough to get advertisements for sex stuff. This is discouraging because most of my contacts are family and they think I am drinking boxed wine or doing drugs when I send them. Why does it have to be porn? Why can't it be something nice or helpful? (Sigh) Has this ever happened to you and what do you do?

Twins

I have heard that everyone has a twin or at least someone that resembles another person. I was in church sitting next to a person that resembled someone. I could not place him until he turned to see why I was staring at him. Then it dawned on me and I blurted out, "Hey! You look like Bernie Madoff!" He looked a little shocked and I got this feeling he did not know what to do but hitting me might have been one option. He said his name was, let us say, Harold and no relation to Bernie. He also said that to a few other people who must have heard me when I got the connection and began looking at us. I do not think I made a friend. Did you ever meet somebody who resembled another person or do you resemble one yourself? If you do be careful sometimes it is better to keep it to yourself.

Forgot anyone lately.

I was visiting my friends home and we were talking about how sometimes someone passes away and we wish we could have done more for them when they were alive. Sometimes visiting a grave is fine but it would have been better to have done something for them when they were alive. Life being so fragile sometimes we mean to and want to but then the unexpected happens and we lose them forever. So I came home and did do something for people that I wanted to remember while they were still alive. It was fun and made them and yes it made me feel better too! Do you know someone that is still alive and is someone you would like to thank?

Pass words.

I have a problem with passwords. These words I pass around to save on my computer to log in to certain sites. I know they are important to protect me from Internet harm, but I have so many I cannot keep track of them. I try to save them with my Internet saving password type tools, but every now and then I have to change them and they save my old password not the new one and I usually forget the new one. Then I try to retrieve these passwords and they ask me secret questions which I forgot the answer to. Do you have any solutions to this password delimna?

Easter Replay

On one arm was her 6 month old baby. The other arm held Easter packages, purse and car keys. Also with her was an argumentative 8 year old not getting into the back seat of the car. After a bit the child gets in the car under protest. She is ready to close the car door when she notices a woman cowering in the front seat. Yep another case of wrong car in store parking lot. Realizing her mistake she apoligizes to horrified stricken lady, then takes herself and her children and finds the correct vehicle. Do you identify with the driver or shopping mom?

Happy Everything!

Happy Easter, Spring, or whatever Holiday you are celebrating. I went to my ATM to get some extra holiday money. I was happy and in the holiday mood. My money was ejected from the machine and as I counted it and was checking my receipt, I ambled over to my car. Still reading the receipt I did not look up as I tried to open my car door. For some reason it did not open and I looked in my car and was shocked and horrified that there was someone sitting in my drivers seat. A split second later I realized something else. It was not my car. The person looked very afraid and I quickly shouted out I was sorry, wished him a happy Holiday and found my car, which was in back of me. Realizing I had a little yellow VW Beetle and he was in a big white chevy I yelled back to him, "Wow I wasn't even close." He kind of slumped down in his car and he looked like he was trying to hide. Did you ever have this happen to you during the Holiday?

Wind

The wind is at it again. It seems the wind is all over these days. It is making Tornado's in North Carolina, strong winds in Pennsylvania and a bunch of other states. To save parking spaces in the City of Scranton Pa. people put out garbage cans and cheap lawn chairs on the street; in front of their houses. I was weaving all over the road trying to avoid them today. I had to stop a few times and let them pass in front of my VW Bug as the wind blew them across the street. Plus it is The Bay of Pigs Anniversary and well that is another story. Are you taking precautions to be safe from the wind today?

Yes Veronica there is a Sun.

I came to work and was happy to report to the person I was to relieve. I was also happy to tell her that it was going to be 80 degrees tomorrow. She looked at me and hopefully asked, "Do you think it is true?" It was then I realized how hard the Winter was on everyone. I reassured her and she looked happily relieved. How was your Winter?

Think about it.

Why do we think about what we think about when we think about it?

Lost in a driveway.

I was in my car the other day opened the door and dropped my keys. I thought they fell and bounced under the car. I looked at the ground area by my car door and found nothing. Then I got out of the car and crawled around looking underneath the car. Still no keys. Then I noticed a stairway leading down to a basement near my car. I went up and down the steps and scowered the area. Having again finding nothing I started to panic a little because that was the only set of keys I had with me. I crawled under the car again and then stood by my opened car door. To my relieved suprise I found that my keys had somehow had fallen between the seat and door toward the back of the seat. I felt a little foolish but happy. Have you ever dropped your keys in a Church Parking lot as it was filling up with people going to church? If you did then you know about the stares people give you and the horns that beep at you when you are looking for them.
