New Years Humor

NEW YEAR

The New Year lies before you

Like a spotless tract of snow

Be careful how you tread on it

For every mark will show.

Here's to the bright New Year, and a fond farewell to the old; here's to the things that are yet to come, and to the memories that we hold."

Youth is when you're allowed to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Middle age is when you're forced to.

Saturday Ramble

Christmas Eve, we had dinner with my side of the family and this time I did make lots of pictures but my camera is still down at my husband's shop where it has been since the get together. I hope to post some of the pictures tomorrow if I can remember to get my camera. We had a good time. Skylar wanted to be posed with his legs crossed and his hand on his knee and Lee, my son, did it. It was hard to see him that way knowing how much he wishes he could move his arms and legs but everyone went along with it. I laughed with him and told him to make sure none of the photos were put on YouTube because people will see him posed and think he can move now. You would not believe the people who come up to us and ask about Skylar and tell us they heard he was able to move different parts of his body . . . all because of him being posed for pictures. He thinks it is funny. While I am speaking of Skylar, please remember him in your prayers, he has not felt well in the past few days and is having difficulty breathing and getting his secretions up. Remember he was on a ventilator after his accident. He was able to wean off it but his lungs are weak. He cannot cough or blow his nose and has to be assisted to cough and get secretions up. We have been told that a mucus plug in his lungs can kill him and that is only one of the many things we have to worry about during the winter. I am afraid that he has pneumonia and he is refusing to go to the doctor because he is afraid they will want to put him in the hospital.  I pray he is feeling better very soon. Yesterday, Christmas Day, my husband and I did not get up until after 9:00. Once up, I fried some bacon and fixed pancakes for breakfast. All day we lay around watching Christmas shows. Last night, we, along with our daughter, Jacqueline, Skylar, his girlfriend, Chelsea, Pam, his mom, who is my sister, and his little sister, Lauren, and friends Michael and Beth all met at Surins for dinner. It is a Thai restaurant. Afterward, we went to Walgreens . . . it was the only thing open. I bought a few things and we left and came home. Hubby went to bed and I changed the backgound and header on my blog. Today, we slept late once again but I didn't cook breakfast.  Hubby went to meet up with some friends and I went to Target and Ross in Decatur to pick up some storage bins and containers. I came back home and started taking down Christmas decorations. About half way through, some of our friends came by and stayed close to an hour and that was it. I never did anything else. My husband and I started watching a show and fell asleep . . . both of us. The ringing of the phone woke us up. He got up, took a shower and went to bed. I decided to write a post . . . this post. I can't wait until eveything is back to normal around here. I have been sick and exhausted and . . . I've gained 4 pounds. Monday I will start walking . . . No tomorrow I will. . . I'm not waiting on New Years Day. No way. Also, tomorrow, I will be going to the grocery store and stocking up on healthy foods. . .I must do better. . .I must do better. I have so much too to do and it's not getting done . . . I must do better. Please remember Skylar in your prayers. Thanks for stopping by.

A Prayer For Christmas

A Prayer For Christmas

~Josephine Robertson~

Dear Father, I think Thee for the many joys of Christmas, and I pray that I may find ways to make the day happy for others. I think Thee for the sweet-scented pines aglow with lights, and for the manger scene of lovely mystery. I thank Thee for the wonder in children's eyes as they see their Christmas tree and find their full stockings; for their rapture in taking the parts of Mary, Joseph, a shepherd, an angel--even a snowflake--in a Christmas pageant; for their solemn, shining faces as they sing "Away in a Manger" and "Silent Night." I thank Thee that we have this day to show our love for family and friends and others far away, whom we may never see or know. May all our festivities be in the memory of the great gift and all our gifts given in the thought of the Christ Child. Amen

Family Get Together

We had my husband's side of the family over last night and had a great time. Maya had fun playing with the kids. She was give out after everyone left. The photo above is rather dark but it is the only one I have of my husband, his sister, brother-in-law, dad, etc. We were so busy visiting with each other that I forgot to take many pictures.

Lee (son) and Morgan, his wife.

My husband's little great niece, Carmen. She was so cute in the little hat and coat.

Here she is again.
Maya, she is tired and ready for a nap.
These two played well together.
Jacqueline (daughter) and Maya
I was trying to get a picture of Maya and Alana jumped up on the sofa beside Jacqueline and Maya and said "cheeeeeese. " It was so sweet that I had to make a few more photos and she said cheese each time.


I love the poem below and have wanted to do the very thing mentoned in the poem......signing the family tablecloth. We have lost many over the past few years and now I wish we had started it the first year we were married.



The Family Tablecloth
By Geneva C. Rodgers


Come in, come in out of the cold,
We greet thee, Christmas Day.
So glad you came our way to eat,
To visit, and to play.

Now one strange thing we ask of all
Is signing of your name
Upon our family tablecloth,
And we'll embroider same.

Your name will mingle with the rest
Of friends and family past
Who've shared our table, been our joy,
No matter first or last.

Let's bow our heads and give our thanks
Today and every day
For blessings, friends, and family --
Our tablecloth display.

Thanks for stopping by. Wishing everyone the joy that is found in the true meaning of Christmas.

Logical Jim - Poem

I hope to be back to posting on a more regular basis after the holidays but until then I would like to share some of the many poems that I have collected over the years.



Logical Jim
Mary B. Huber

"Is it right to give one’s own presents away?
Asked little boy Jim, of his father one day,
As Christmas was drawing near.
“If I gave away what was given to me,
I would be unkind to the giver, you see,”
Declared Father, and Mother said too,
“It would not be a nice thing to do”.
So on Christmas Day, when Father woke up,
He found by his side a little live pup,
With a card that said, “Daddy from Jim”
And Jim gave his mother a nice present, too,
A little dog collar, all shiny and new.
“I know,” said wee Jim, “that you’ll let the pup
stay,
For you said it was rude to give presents away.”

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Christmas Once More

Christmas Once More

Naomi I. Parks

Again, as in the years gone by,

It's Christmastime once more;

With trees and lights and holly,

And wreaths upon the doors;

With packages all gaily wrapped,

And secrets whisperings,

The sound of happy laughter

The joy that Christmas brings.

The air is spiced with fragrance

Of puddings, pies, and cake;

The children dream of Santa Claus

And try to keep awake

That they might see old Santa,

His reindeer and his sleigh,

To hear his "Merry Christmas"

As he quickly drives away.

The carols of the Yuletide,

Stories told by firelight;

The twinkling stars above us

Like myriad candlelight;

The whiteness of the snowflakes

Softly drifting through the air;

The warmth of friends and loved ones

Round about us everywhere.

The ringing of the church bells,

The folks who kneel and pray,

Remembering the Christ Child

Born on this Christmas Day;

The star the wise men followed,

Their presents to bestow,

The message of the angels

To shepherds there below.

Again, as in the years gone by,

It's Christmastime once more.

Come, let us go and worship

The Christ Child we adore,

That his peace and love may ever

Within our glad hearts ring

That we may share with others

The joys that Christmas brings.

Wednesday Ramble

We will be hosting the first of our 2 family Christmas get togethers on Saturday. My husband's family will be coming and I am looking forward to it. We will be having mostly finger foods but I thought I would fix a pot each of chili, chicken noodle soup, and chicken stew. I will also fix a large pan of Mexican cornbread to go with the chili. I have spent the past few afternoons baking cookies. Tuesday evening I cooked dinner for my son and Morgan, his wife, and Skylar and Chelsea, his girlfriend. I have to give credit to my husband for standing out in the cold and grilling. We had grilled chicken, grilled venison tenderloin wrapped in bacon, kabobs, corn on the cob. baked potatoes, stewed potatoes, french cut green beans, peas, macaroni & cheese, and biscuits. I cook to please and different family members prefer different beans and their potatoes cooked differently. I never did get around to putting up more Christmas decorations and I don't intend to . . . They have been put away. I may feel differently next year but this year I did not enjoy what decorating that I did. As for now, I feel the need to simplify things and I don't need a lot of decorations to celebrate Christmas. I plan to work a little harder over the next few weeks continuing to declutter my home. I love a clean and uncluttered home but I have been finding it hard to keep up with my cleaning lately . . . too much STUFF or maybe something else???? I have a difficult time getting even the simplest jobs done. . . my attention span is not good and I am bad about jumping to another job before I have completed the one before it. A few weeks ago while on the internet I found a poem or joke titled A.A.A.D.D. (Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder)and it had to have been written about me . . . or someone like me.....and sounds very much like each day of my life. In fact, I often say to my husband when he comes home to a mess that it is hard to believe that I have been busy all day. I thought I would share the poem with you. Do you ever have one of these days???

A A A D D - Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder

This might happen to you all… it's already happened to me!
Recently, I was diagnosed with A A A D D - Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder. This is how it manifests:

I decide to water my garden. As I turn on the hose in the driveway, I look over at my car I forgot to put in the garage last night, and decide the car really needs washing. As I pull the hose around the house to the driveway, I notice that there is mail on the porch table that I brought up from the mail box earlier.

I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car. I lay my car keys down on the table, put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table, and notice that the can is full. So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the garbage first.

But then I think, since I'm going to be near the mailbox when I take out the garbage anyway, I may as well pay the bills first. I take my check book off the table, and see that there is only 1 check left. My extra checks are in my desk in the study, so I go to my desk where I find the coke that I had been drinking.

I'm going to look for my checks, but first I need to push the bottle of coke aside so that I don't accidentally knock it over. I realize I left my computer running, answering emails on gardening, when I take a sip of the coke, it's hot, so I decide I should put it in the refrigerator to get cold.

As I head toward the kitchen with the coke, a vase of flowers on the counter catches my eye--they need to be watered. I set the bottle of coke down on the counter, and I discover my reading glasses laying on the counter, I've been searching for them all morning.

I decide I better put them back on my desk, but first I'm going to water the flowers. I set the glasses back down on the counter, fill a container with water and suddenly I spot the TV remote. Someone left it on the kitchen table.

I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV, I will be looking for the remote, but I won't remember that it's on the kitchen table, so I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs, but first I'll add some fresh water to the vase of flowers.

I pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit of it spills on the floor. So, I set the remote back down on the table, get some towels and wipe up the spill. Then, I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do.

At the end of the day:
----the garden didn't get any water,
----the car isn't washed,
----the bills aren't paid,
----the garden emails havn't been answered,
----there is a bottle of hot coke sitting on the counter,
----the flowers in the vase still don't have enough water,
----there is only 1 check left in my check book,
----I can't find the remote,
----now I can't find my glasses again,
----and I don't remember what I did with the car keys.

Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all day long, and I'm really tired. I realize this is a serious problem, and I'll try to get some help for it, but first I'll check my e-mails. Do me a favor, will you? Send a link to this page… to everyone you know, because I don't remember to whom it has been sent. Don't laugh -- if this isn't you yet, your day is coming!!

GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY.
GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL.
LAUGHING AT YOURSELF IS THERAPEUTIC.

P.S. Oh No . . . I just remembered, I LEFT THE WATER RUNNING IN THE DRIVEWAY!!!!!!!!!

The Christmas Guest-Poem

THE CHRISTMAS GUEST
by Helen Steiner Rice

It happened one day at the year’s white end,
Two neighbors called on an old-time friend
And they found his shop so meager and mean,
Made gay with a thousand boughs of green,
And Conrad was sitting with face a-shine
When he suddenly stopped as he stitched a twine
And said, “Old friends, at dawn today,
When the cock was crowing the night away,
The Lord appeared in a dream to me
And said, ‘I am coming your guest to be’.
So I’ve been busy with feet astir,
Strewing my shop with branches of fir,
The table is spread and the kettle is shined
And over the rafters the holly is twined,
And now I will wait for my Lord to appear
And listen closely so I will hear
His step as He nears my humble place,
And I open the door and look in His face. . .”
So his friends went home and left Conrad alone,
For this was the happiest day he had known,
For, long since, his family had passed away
And Conrad has spent a sad Christmas Day.
But he knew with the Lord as his Christmas guest
This Christmas would be the dearest and best,
And he listened with only joy in his heart.
And with every sound he would rise with a start
And look for the Lord to be standing there
In answer to his earnest prayer;
So he ran to the window after hearing a sound,
But all that he saw on the snow-covered ground
Was a shabby beggar whose shoes were torn
And all of his clothes were ragged and worn.
So Conrad was touched and went to the door
And he said, “Your feet must be frozen and sore,
And I have some shoes in my shop for you
And a coat that will keep you warmer, too”.
So with grateful heart the man went away,
But as Conrad noticed the time of day,
He wondered what made the dear Lord so late
And how much longer he’d have to wait,
When he heard a knock and ran to the door,
But it was only a stranger once more,
A bent, old crone with a shawl of black,
A bundle of faggots piled on her back.
She asked for only a place to rest,
But that was reserved for Conrad’s Great Guest.
But her voice seemed to plead, “Don’t send me away
Let me rest awhile on Christmas Day”.
So Conrad brewed her a steaming cup
And told her to sit at the table and sup.
But after she left he was filled with dismay
For he saw that the hours were passing away
And the Lord had not come as He said He would,
And Conrad felt sure he had misunderstood.
When out of the stillness he heard a cry,
“Please help me and tell me where am I.
So again he opened his friendly door
And stood disappointed as twice before,
It was only a child who had wandered away
And was lost from her family on Christmas Day…
Again Conrad’s heart was heavy and sad,
But he knew he should make this little child glad,
So he called her in and wiped her tears
And quieted her childish fears.
Then he led her back to her home once more
But as he entered his own darkened door,
He knew that the Lord was not coming today
For the hours of Christmas had passed away;
So he went to his room and knelt down to pray
And he said, “Dear Lord, why did you delay,
What kept You from coming to call on me,
For I wanted so much Your face to see. . .
When soft in the silence a voice he heard,
“Lift up your head for I kept My word–
Three times My shadow crossed your floor–
Three times I came to your lonely door–
For I was the beggar with bruised, cold feet,
I was the woman you gave to eat,
And I was the child on the homeless street.”

My Christmas Home

I have most of my Christmas decorations up and hope to be completely finished by the end of the weekend. Since I have most of my decorating done I thought I would join Rhoda's (Southern Hospitality) Home for the Holidays tour, Funky Junk Interiors, Hooked on Holiday House Tours by Hooked on Houses, My House Tour: I’ll Be Home for Christmas by Melissa at The Inspired Room and My Romantic Home for Show & Tell Friday. Be sure and stop by these places to see all the lovely decorating and home tours. I hope to have more that I will add soon.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I will be puppy sitting Maya (daughter's Yorkie).
