Even in this cold,
I know the Dove's need water in their birdbaths...so they got some.

Then they came sat on the edge of the fence and watched me.

Hearing Mrs. Daywalker from the darkest part
of the bedroom as I tell her it's time to get up
'Juss 15 more minutes Daddi...'

So I made cawfee and turned on the heater for her.

I like this, Daywalker!

For me, right now? Being able to jump in the car and run to the grocery store just down the street. It's so much quicker than having to wait for the bus! I got there and even though I had my car so I could get as much as I needed, I wandered around the aisles looking at everything and nothing all at once. I think the idea of being able to both afford and buy what I needed was a little overwhelming. I walked out of the store with tortilla chips, Reese's Peanut butter cups and toilet paper. LOL! (I am borrowing a car from my parents for the week and had a little money leftover from my paycheck. Yahoo!).

Gay Marriage Killed the Dinosaurs


This list is for people who understand the grave risks of gay marriage. Some suggest gay marriage will merely undermine one of our most fundamental societal institutions, causing countless straight couples to get divorced because exclusion of gays was the only thing holding their marriage together.

But we know better. Gay marriage killed the dinosaurs. If we let liberal activist judges in Massachusetts and California set the course, the blood will run in rivers. Mixed with molten lava.


Top 17 Reasons Why Gay Marriage is Wrong

17. Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.

16. Gay culture is a new fad created by the liberal media to undermine long-standing traditions. We know this is true because gay sex did not exist in ancient Greece and Rome.

15. There are plenty of straight families looking to adopt, and every unwanted child already has a loving family. This is why foster care does not exist.

14. Conservatives know best how to create strong families. That is why it is not true that Texas and Mississippi have the highest teen birthrates, and Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire have the lowest. This is a myth spread by the liberal media.

13. Marriage is a religious institution, defined by churches. This is why atheists do not marry. Christians also never get a divorce.

12. Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why our society has no single parents.

11. Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

10. Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

9. Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

8. Gay marriage should be decided by the people and their elected representatives, not the courts. The framers checked the courts, which represent mainstream public opinion, with legislatures created to protect the rights of minorities from the tyranny of the majority. Interference by courts in this matter is inappropriate, just as it has been every time the courts have tried to hold back legislatures pushing for civil rights.

7. Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

6. Civil unions, providing most of the same benefits as marriage with a different name are better, because "separate but equal" institutions are a good way to satisfy the demands of uppity minority groups.

5. Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

4. Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

3. Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

2. Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

"What do you mean; what does it sound like?"

"It makes a sound like this..." *whines low in throat*

"OHHH you mean like "NOOOOOO I don't wanna work todayyyyy!!!'.... oh wait. That was me."

Then we got into it about my Harvest Gold stove that keeps overheating... "those colors from the seventies!" he said, all aghast, "...you mean it WASN'T just the drugs?!"

Knowing that the annoying barking dog is NOT mine.

Big galumphin' galoot needing a den, but not wanting to be in his crate--and curling up on a blanket he dragged under the cat's feeding table.

The ferocity of a teensy twelve-pound doglet with a bone when the big galumphin' galoot breathes her same air... and the way she suddenly stops growling to look up and implore me ever-so-politely with those big soulful brown eyes, "Mom? Please don't take my bone... please, Mom?"

waking very early to the sound of birdies chittering and tweeting softly... stretching very delightfully to come awake (one of those stretches that is sooooo satisfying) and getting a big smile from the warm little furbaby body curled up tight next to me, day dreaming about future delightful mornings after I get my move done.

Feeling secure and safe.

Thinking about how good it will feel to give up this very large, high maintenance, high priced place (that has many "luxuries") for a very sweet, peaceful, gentle, beautiful, less stressful place that has less house and more open land away from the city where I can once again enjoy the little things and more peaceful moments....

But I'll miss one little thing that means a lot to me... spending quality time with my very dear friends here in PA... and just savoring a cup of coffee while I listen to them vent about their day and delight in their smiles, laughter and warm hugs.

While packing, finding the very first birthday card my dad sent me...and the bitter-sweet moment when I placed it with the very last one he sent just a few months before his passing. Discarding clutter to put things behind me, but packing things that I will cherish.

Being invited to my first Hershey Bears Hockey game by my best friend and REALLY enjoying ourselves!! We had a BLAST and the Bears won!! They're on their way to the Calder Cup. ... Tonight was important to me because I may not get to see her again before moving.

(I hate crowds but she's such a great friend that she keeps me grounded.)

She's so much FUN to do things with!! I ADORE YOU, LADY!! She could'a invited anyone.... but she picked me, the little wall flower.

She even asked (correction, made) the guy next to me to give me the hockey puck that ALMOST hit us, since it was my first game... a memento of good times with a great friend!!

Take every opportunity to spend time with your friends doing "the little things"... THEY ARE REALLY WORTH IT!!! even if you do hate crowds.

Being held and kissed by her....
Finishing a good book....
Enjoying a night drive with her...
A good computer game....

A long hot steamy shower on a cold winter day!! And heat!!!!! Heat!!!! Being warm in my house, when I know it's icy and bitterly cold outside. We are so lucky and spoiled in the USA!!! I know our country is not perfect, but it's better than any other place, this earth has to offer.

I have been craving chocolate chip cookies for 2 weeks now. Why? I rarely even eat cookies. I actually hadn't thought about the craving in a few days, but now.... thanks wimsicle !!! If I'm forced to break down and buy some it's on your conscience. Just sayin

Who me?? :eyebat: <<innocent look. Warm Chocolate Chip Cookies fix all problems...making sad moments better, mad moments less stressful and happy moments happier ....so craving them is inevitable....They draw you in...
Be strong (if you must) to resist their allure but if you can't...I am sure the calories will be worth every yummylicous (yep my own word) bite! They may make you feel :happyjump:... you never know until you try :)

When i get overwelmed about all that i need to get accomplished.

Hearing the words.....

"It's going to be ok baby, I promise. I will help you"

Sometimes, just a few words...even a very short sentance makes the world shine again.

Long, deep talks and working through the difficult
Laughter

the air cleansing wind

daffodils in the front yard in bloom
getting most of my chores done
the sweet, special places of the soul

the little things

My cat climbing all over my shoulders while I am trying to be productive in the kitchen. Its amazing to me how much a pet can come to trust someone.

Felt on top of the world to finally have a grasp on my accounting chapter that had me so lost just a few days ago

While I was doing my walking outside. the hood of my jacket kept blowing off my head, because of the wind, so I pulled my hair out and enjoyed the feeling of my hair dancing in the winter air.

I actually got my laundry done on Wens as oppose to Thursday, when I am tight for time. A great feeling!

I love that Beasley can never remember that TSP=teaspoon and TBSP=tablespoon, and so whenever she's following a recipe I'll hear her mutter the actual letters: "One TBSP."

Whenever there's a thunderstorm, she leads me into the bedroom and asks me to lie down with her and just listen.

Seeing bus drivers wave at each other.

Perfectly seperating an Oreo.

Smiling in a middle of a kiss.

Licking the yogurt lid.

Scratch and sniff stickers.

Peeing when I hold it for a really long time[/SIZE][/SIZE]
