Peewee and Tia
the cat belongs to Abi and Hannah...
and Peewee is Melissa's dog..
when these two get together it is a race
around the house .
There is no barking or sissing
just lots of running and playing.
I think the picture explains everything ....all
had fun with their ice cream cones....
of course they were the best
Dairy Queen cones.

On my sister- in - laws site Mrs.Miles she add a free site that helps with english:

This was what she had to say about it : You come across a word you don't recognize - or you need a quick synonym for a word. You don't have to get up and get your dictionary, nor have to open up a word program or go online either. The secret? There's a nifty little program I've been using for a few days now, and its proving itself VERY helpful. It's called WordWeb and its a free download. It comes with it's own library of words and can even do audio of speech-to-text, standalone, if you have that feature enabled from your existing word program. If you're like me you will be wondering how you did without it!
By the way, it FREE

WEB WORD

Patty check it out ..be something you would want !!!!
I hope you will read this thru ...so many times we miss what is important:
We tried so hard to make things better for our kids that we made them worse.
For my grandchildren, I'd like better.
I'd really like for them to know about hand me down clothes and homemade
ice cream and leftover meat loaf sandwiches. I really would.
I hope you learn humility by being humiliated, and that you learn honesty by
being cheated.
I hope you learn to make your own bed and mow the lawn and wash the car.
And I really hope nobody gives you a brand new car when you are sixteen.
It will be good if at least one time you can see puppies born and your old dog
put to sleep.
I hope you get a black eye fighting for something you believe in.
I hope you have to share a bedroom with your younger brother/sister. And it's
all right if you have to draw a line down the middle of the room, but when he
wants to crawl under the covers with you because he's scared, I hope you let
him.
When you want to see a movie and your little brother/sister wants to tag along
I hope you'll let him/her.
I hope you have to walk uphill to school with your friends and that you live in
a town where you can do it safely.
On rainy days when you have to catch a ride, I hope you don't ask your driver to
drop you two blocks away so you won't be seen riding with someone as uncool as
your Mom.
If you want a slingshot, I hope your Dad teaches you how to make one instead of
buying one.
I hope you learn to dig in the dirt and read books.
When you learn to use computers, I hope you also learn to add and subtract in
your head.
I hope you get teased by your friends when you have your first crush on a
boy\girl,and when you talk back to your mother that you learn what ivory soap
tastes like.
May you skin your knee climbing a mountain, burn your hand on a stove and stick
your tongue on a frozen flagpole.
I don't care if you try a beer once, but I hope you don't like it.
And if a friend offers you dope or a joint, I hope you realize he is not your friend.
I sure hope you make time to sit on a porch with your Grandma/Grandpa .
And go fishing with your Uncle.
May you feel sorrow at a funeral and joy during the holidays.
I hope your mother punishes you when you throw a baseball through your neighbor's window
and that she hugs you and kisses you at Hannukah/Christmas time when you give her a plaster mold of your hand.
These things I wish for you - tough times and disappointment, hard work and happiness.
To me, it's the only way to appreciate life.

Written with a pen.
Sealed with a kiss.
I'm here for you.
And if I die before you do, I'll go to heaven and wait for you.

We secure our friends, not by accepting favors, but by doing them.

I thought about how much kids of today have missed out and how many of them are hurting for old fashion LOVE......

It was Bruce's birthday March 3rd....
Happy Birthday ...hope you enjoyed the meal.

Well the words in the picture should say it all...yes ...I started to put GAS into our new truck which is a DIESEL
Yesterday was the day I learned how pray and helping hands are there for us.
I want to Thank a fellow who with out his help ..I would still be there crying...
for the time he gave me and the phone numbers to get my truck back. If ever you put gas into a diesel truck ...
DON'T START THAT TRUCK(the cost to fix is WOW)
this fellow told me not to and to get the truck towed and have some one qualified to do it .
And I followed his advice...by the pictures you can see my baby being carried away.
The company who did the job got the truck in right away for me ..it is funny today it was to have it's oil and tran fluids done .. so they started the job at the same time so this morning I had a truck clean and gas free....and My HUSBAND ..show nothing but love and understanding ..thanks Barry XOXOXO
