2015


I'll start the year off with a Snoopy post.
I've loved Snoopy and Charlie Brown since I can remember.
My dad used to say to me,
"You can do it Charlie Brown."
 


Snoopy seems to be silent,
but say so much.
 


Snoopy is always ready to just be cool,
to take a nap,
to eat cookies,
and if necessary,
fight with the neighbor cat.
 


Snoopy loves naps,
and he loves to smooch.
 


He can be bummed out,
but never as bummed out as Charlie Brown.
We're a lot like Snoopy, or he's a lot like us.....
we just don't have speech bubbles.
Probably a good thing.
 


Little things make Snoopy happy.
Like a letter in the mail.
Which reminds me,
I ought to look for some Snoopy stationery.
 


Snoopy helps you try to tell somebody just how you feel.
I used to have a miniature deck of Snoopy cards.
It was a picture of Snoopy, blue background,
white snowflakes.
I wish I still had them.
 

Snoopy has a temper,
but not like Lucy.
I also used to have a poster of Snoopy,
on a surfboard,
saying Cowabunga.
Wish I still had it.
Note to self,
don't get rid of anymore
Snoopy stuff.

Happy New Year! I bought some Snoopy glasses. there were 4 of them in a set...tall ones and each has a painted picture of Snoopy on his doghouse w/lights and one of Snoopy & Charlie Brown sledding and then one of all of the gang singing joy to the world and the last one of charlie brown & Snoopy decorating a tree with the words Seasons greetings on it.

Don't Be Idle

This is Zephyr. She is the most discontent, unhappy cat I've ever seen in my life. She is selfish plain and simple. All she can think about is HER belly. This is not done in silence. When I get up (early), she's been up for hours wasting away. She's died of starvation 8 times. Don't be like Zephyr. The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment by Jeremiah Burroughs   "Who are the men who are most discontented?  but idle persons-- for they lie around and find fault with everything."   (page 50-51) Zephyr is an unhappy cat. Not a happy camper.   How about you? IDLE lazy, slothful, work-shy (ha ha) shiftless, inactive, sluggish (like a bad drain) without purpose DISCONTENT dissatisfaction with circumstances displeasure Have you no weeds to pull? No list to make or finish? No bread to bake? Nothing to mend or fix? No corner to clean? Nothing to learn? No letter to write? No project to fin...

My Favorite Child

I wish I had all the pictures I wanted, to go with this blog post........because I know a *picture paints a thousand words*, but for a large part of our family's life, old fashion cameras and old fashion pictures were being used.  So, many of the pictures that would help paint this post are somewhere in boxes and books.  It would take a month of Sundays to find them all so  I will just have to count on your imagination and my memory! FAVORITE: most liked, preferred above all others Sara, you were my favorite.  You were our first baby and we were so excited for you.  Your hair was perfect for me to learn how to braid and you always were very still for me.  You were the first little girl I got to dress up and put lacy socks on.  You were such a fun little girl to read to.  You memorized the books we had and it was a big part of our day to read with each other.  *where is the bear when the wind blows cold?*.    You have alw...
