Good morning all.   Happy Fathers Day to all you fellow fathers.

Got my standard 4 hours of sleep.  Hope to take a nap later.

Called my father to wish him  happy birthday ( today is his 86th birthday) and happy fathers day.

Gotta go to Sunday School and Church, will be back tonight.



GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!

Good Morning OH Family!

Happy Father's Day to those Dad's out there! Chad and Kirk have to work today so we decided to have a late afternoon cookout when they get off work. Took Rick and his dad to get a pedicure yesterday for Father's Day. FIL loved it! Took a picture will have to download it on Summer's computer cause none of my USB ports work on mine. (any suggestions from our computer people?) The insomnia thing ha**** me, keep waking up around 5am and make myself lay there until at least 7am. Not sure if it is the menopause thing or what? Prayers for those that are ill and for those that have lost their Father's and missing them on Father's Day and also if you need to mend some fences with your Dad now is the time to do it. I'm glad that I've been able to do that with my Dad, it took almost loosing Mom to make it happen. Make sure you stay cool today and drink lots of water.

Your loved!

Morning everyone.

I have to admit, I slept way too well last night.  I was apparently talked to Peter online and he was buzzing me and I was off in lala land.. when I woke up an hour later, he had said, "tha****er and sun got the best of you and you are crashed.  Talk to you tomorrow!".. well he was right.

called my Daddy first thing this morning to avoid the busy lines later today.  So blessed to still have him and in such a good mental and physical state.  I thanked him for going 'shopping' 46 years ago and picking the little blonde baby!  LOL

Back on the sleeping theme, asking prayers for my Mom.  She has some new meds for her blood pressure and all that and has been on it about a month.  One of the side effects is the lack of a good breath kind of thing.  Well she got that for sure.  She finally went back to the doctor Friday and he said it might be the meds, but it could be stress too.  And she is stressed about my brother.  Anyway, he gave her something to sleep.  They don't know the name, but she is having trouble getting used to it.  Daddy said she took 1/2 of one the first night and the next morning he had to wake her up at 10:30 in the morning.  She was very drowsy all day.  She did sleep well last night and woke up at 7am, but she was 'napping' again when I called just now before church.  I know it takes tweaking to get it straight, but at least she is getting rest.

My baby got safely to Amarillo about 7pm last night. I had a voicemail and she sounded tired.  They are back on the road headed thru New Mexico and up to Ft. Collins.  She is going to have such an awesome time.

Still reading???

I am sunburned but really only bad on the ankles and knees and upper thigh.  I will aloe vera and lotion up.  Today is going to just be staying home and trying to straighten up. Laundry needs much attention.

Asking for some prayers for me for answers and direction for my eating.  Weight officially creeped up this morning into my UNACCCEPTABLE place.  So I will try to figure out how to rework my food choices. Some days I have deserved some weight gain, but others I am behaving, so i'm not sure what exactly is the issue. 

Okay if anyone hasn't dozed off.. sending prayers to all, Liz, Que and all those in need.  Blessings to the rest.

Good Morning, TMB!!  and Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there!!

I'm missing mine this week; we used to have family day out by the pool and do the cooking for Dad so he could just hang out.  Fun times!!

Headed home in a bit; had a great time with peeps and some new peeps!!!  Got a little pink but not too bad.  Got me some protein and water for the road; got my vits ready to go so, I'm all good.

Here is a little something for the Dad's today!!  Some Luther Vandross!  Oh, how I'd love to dance with my Daddy one more time.......


Back when I was a child, before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high and dance with my mother and me and then
Spin me around 'til I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved
If I could get another chance, another walk, another dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
How I'd love, love, love
To dance with my father again
When I and my mother would disagree
To get my way, I would run from her to him
He'd make me laugh just to comfort me
Then finally make me do just what my mama said
Later that night when I was asleep
He left a dollar under my sheet
Never dreamed that he would be gone from me
If I could steal one final glance, one final step, one final dance with him
I'd play a song that would never, ever end
'Cause I'd love, love, love
To dance with my father again
Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear how my mother cried for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me
I know I'm praying for much too much
But could you send back the only man she loved
I know you don't do it usually
But dear Lord she's dying
To dance with my father again
Every night I fall asleep and this is all I ever dream

We were slugs and did not go to church this morning.
Happy Father's Day. I am so grateful for the my Dad and still
miss him after almost 30 years. He was 63 and
a 'John Wayne' kind of man. He worked from
sun-up until sun-down as a rancher/wheat farmer
in Kansas.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday. I vote
for a 5-day weekend and a 2 day work week(same pay of
course).
