Once In A Lifetime

Some people have stronger smelling receptors than others... I have a friend that can smell the faintest of odors! Perhaps you have a stronger "thmeller."

Lovely post! We all have such a lot to be thankful for! Hope it was good for you!

Well, gosh, I have a gun (never fired). When I was young, one of my forevers had a 357 and we took it out to the desert and I did fire that one. I almost hit the target. I believe in the Constitution!

Icon, I am SO glad you’re back. I do think you belong here. If someone like me is here (unstable in the least), someone like you, who is a wanderer, definitely belongs here. You can come and go at your will. This site will always be here waiting for you... It is true. I think I know what you're talking about (maybe) & that's not true.

Angie, my dear, where are you? I'm getting worried!

How is Kev, Cath? Hope all is fine!

It is sometimes hard, but we all try to "Keep-a-going" Larry! You have some wonderful posts!

Yes! This is one that does need our help this year. This economy is playing havoc all around, but hitting the children! Oh, that will never do!

Well, clearly Peter Schiff was right. Wonder how the others are feeling now. But, that doesn't really worry me. What I'm wondering is why you haven't posted for 3 days? Usually you have a post daily... sometimes more... Oh, yes! Thanksgiving...

Chris, it does hurt... a LOT... right now. You will do the best you can and eventually things will turn around. Life is hard. We all experience these things. Take care.

Wise advice, Wayman! Will come to visit you on Blogster...

What a terrible time for mankind... How do these people develop? A baby is not born with hate in his/her heart. There is a lot of blame to go around... pretty much the society in which they grow up. What a tragedy!

Jasmine, you're not giving up your blogging, one short of your goal, are you???

Hi Doc,
I know this is a busy time of year, but I know you'll be celebrating the little one's birthday today!! Love to you all...

Ah, Jim. What a mixture of feelings in this post. Your brother... I'm glad you decided not to take your father's spot in his life and bail him out. He'll probably find someone else to do that for him. He's too far along in life to change his ways... What a mess he's in. I know you've spoken of him before... the apple of your father's eye. But, you were always the steady one.
The theater... your true avocation! I know you regard these people as part of your family... all of them. And, they love you as well. The two plays -- Succulents & Blessed Event -- such wonderful plays, full of the feelings of life... They will be greatly successful. How wonderful it is that you've found a happy niche in life! And... most of all... MARY!!! What a joy you are together. You have a great life, with a few bumps along the way as we all have. Your life is basically like a happy fantasy!
