  1. Freckles

    An elderly woman and her little grandson, whose face was sprinkled with bright freckles, spent the day at the zoo. Lots of children were waiting in line to get their cheeks painted by a local artist who was decorating them with tiger paws. "You've got so many freckles, there's no place to paint!" a girl in the line said to the little fella.

    Embarrassed, the little boy dropped his head. His grandmother knelt down next to him. "I love your freckles. When I was a little girl I always wanted freckles," she said, while tracing her finger across the child's cheek. "Freckles are beautiful."

    The boy looked up, "Really?"

    "Of course," said the grandmother. "Why, just name me one thing that's prettier than freckles."

    The little boy thought for a moment, peered intensely into his grandma's face, and softly whispered, "Wrinkles."

  2. Good day all,

    Grateful for friendship

    found in life.

    ---------------

    So long as we are loved

    by others I would almost

    say we are indispensable;

    and no man is useless

    while he has a friend.

    (Robert Louis Stevenson)

    Hugs to all

  3. ''Ask and it will be

    given to you; seek

    and you will find;

    Knock and the door

    will be opened to you.''

    (Matthew 7:7)

    I think those words

    are part of Kasey's life.

    I add many prayers for

    good results for all the

    tests that will be done.

    Hugs

    Kind words are jewels that

    live in the heart and soul

    and remain as blessed memories

    years after they have been spoken.

  5. Sorry your MIL passed away,

    sympathies to the family and

    Inez.

    Safer for you to stay home so soon

    after your surgery specially in the

    winter time, Toronto had very bad

    weather for New Year, but all will

    be fine for Inez trip.

    Take care

  6. Welcome Linda,

    sorry you have to join but you

    have reached the best place for

    information and support.

    Was a lurker also when my husband

    had lc, that was 2003 and I'm still

    here, so for me and so many the best

    place for everybody that are touched by lc.

    Congratulations for those eighteen

    months, wishing you years to go with

    them.

    You will be able to help people in

    Canada specially on the West coast

    with the health system, hospital care,

    and the tests so different than in

    the States.

    Will be nice to see more posts from you.

    Wishing you a good year 2008.

  7. Good Thrusday mornig all,

    Snow all taken care of, grateful

    I still can dig and showel snow

    at my age and if not in a hurry

    enjoy it.

    In thirty days 6 feet 8 inches of

    snow was the total we got.....

    Grateful the absentee owner was present

    yesterday morning (rent collecting)and

    had to help cleaning the parking lot,

    a neighbor was doing the talking about

    the misssing services that we pay for,

    and found out that only 10 units are

    rented out of 28....and the money they

    are losing each month prevent them giving

    us the services that are charged in the rent.

    Grateful that I'm free and once more able

    to move to a better place where I will get

    the services I'll be paying for.

    Could say the resolution I was thinking

    about for 2008 was to find a place where

    I could live the few years I may left and get

    all the services I would be paying for, not a beautiful lease with promises and nothing after.

    Have a good day.

    Jackie

  8. Did not ask for the snow storm

    we got, a real bad one.......too much

    snow and too fast.

    Grateful for the food I have and

    the book I can read after the

    digging I'll be doing.

    Snow removal services and janitorial

    services paid for the year, but absentee

    owner and janitor are not on my list

    of favorite people at the moment.

    Grateful I'm not the only one in this

    situation, so will see how the wind blows

    in the coming days.

    Have a good day.

  9. In answer to your Irish joke.

    --------------

    Mike and his pregnant wife live on a farm in the distant rural regions.

    No running water, no electricity, etc. One night, Mikes' wife is begins

    to deliver the baby. The local doctor is there in attendance. "What d'ya

    want me to do, Doctor?" "Hold the lantern, Mikey. Here it comes!" the

    doctor delivers the child and holds it up for the proud father to see.

    "Mike, you're the proud father of a fine strapping boy." "Saints be

    praised, I..." Before Mike can finish the Doctor interrupts, "Wait a

    minute. Hold the lantern, Mikey." Soon the doctor delivers the next

    child. "You've a full set now, Mikey. A beautiful baby daughter."

    "Thanks be to..." Again the Doctor cuts in, "Hold the lantern, Mikey,

    Hold the lantern!" Soon the Doctor delivers a third child. The doctor

    holds up the baby for Mike's inspection. "Doctor," asks Mike, "Do you

    think it's the light that's attracting them?"

  10. Just an Irish Wish

    for this New Year 2008.

    May you always have work for your hands to do.

    May your pockets hold always a coin or two.

    May the sun shine bright on your windowpane.

    May the rainbow be certain to follow each rain.

    May the hand of a friend always be near you.

    And may God fill your heart with gladness to cheer you.

    Jackie
