Thanks for sharing your opinion. I pray we do...Jim,<br />Thanks for sharing your opinion. I pray we do not go to war over OIL, as well. We see where that got us since 2001.<br />I did get outside today and planted some flower seeds. Just morning glories and sweet peas for now. Have more to plant when I return from Dad's!<br />Oh,yes.. good things do happen! My son's and grandson's recent recoveries from life threatening events are the biggest in my recent memory! I am thankful to my God.<br />MarilynMarilyn Moragnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18427476589355349725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-684979241648085394.post-89726155140827467292011-02-28T21:11:09.169-06:002011-02-28T21:11:09.169-06:00Read your blog....my opinion....we should not be t...Read your blog....my opinion....we should not be the world police force. But, we have to protect ourselves.<br />The situation over in the mid east does not look good this day. We are so dependent on OIL, should we lose that commodity...... Too bad that we cannot produce a lot of our own natural resources. Now, those are my thoughts. I am completely and totally against going to war over oil, but it looks as though that is where we are headed..<br />SPRING TIME.... we have been waiting, and now it's finally coming. My peach trees, plum trees,and rose bushes are almost in bloom. At Ballinger I was taught that until the mesquites bud out, winter isn't over. Around here it's the Osage (horse apple) trees. No sign from them that spring is upon us, yet.<br />During the time that it has been too bad, weather wise, to work, I have been making ballpoint pens from imported and domestic wood, and donating the sales of them to a shelter for battered women and children. I had SEVERAL dozen made, when I realized that I had to have a way to dispose of them. They were stacking up and until I moved some, I was going to have to quit producing. I think the Lord led me there; as I passed by the shelter one day, I noticed a sign that was asking for donations. I thought, why not! To date around $800.00 has helped them a little.<br />Hope your visit with "Dad" was enjoyable, now get outside and get the spring flowers planted !!!!!!!<br />I'm reminded that" GOOD THINGS DO HAPPEN.<br />JimJim Cowlishawnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-684979241648085394.post-89547663846583054682011-02-28T13:35:19.434-06:002011-02-28T13:35:19.434-06:00June,
Thank you, as always, for your comments.
Y...June,<br /><br />Thank you, as always, for your comments.<br /><br />You have a way of reflecting back to me what I wish to portray on a subject matter. If you agree, and are positive, I know I'm getting it right! We grandmothers have to stick together!<br /><br />No one would believe how many hours I can spend watching the birds outside my window. (Maybe they would if they could see my dust particles indoors!) And thanking the Creator of such magnificent creatures!Marilyn Moragnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18427476589355349725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-684979241648085394.post-41021883269664935322011-02-28T13:25:30.741-06:002011-02-28T13:25:30.741-06:00Good comments on the striking public workers--I am...Good comments on the striking public workers--I am totally in their camp. I think there is a very real danger in their unions being crowded out as a political ploy against the Democratic Party as well as in their jobs.<br /><br />Loved Mr. Gates comment, which I heard on CNN. I have always admired him from the time Mr. Bush installed him in that office. He has performed with wisdom and restraint, and I hate to see him retire.<br /><br />I envy you your windowside view of the birds in your area. We don't have such a window. We did have a wonderful window view in our Tulsa townhouse, but this house is laid out totally different. Enjoy.<br /><br />Also try to enjoy being with and observing your dad and all his musings this week.<br /><br />With love, JuneMy Mind and Its Musingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03174224799672767162noreply@blogger.com
