Merrydeath

ahem..... sits down with a glass of hot dark cider... what IS your BEST stuff?? and just what STUFF are ya talking about???

many many more to ya... and all with rum n gold

thank you, Jenny.. I could have died many ways that morning... its still astounds me. It also amazes me that a life can be as little as an inch in a news report.. all those dreams and wishes, prayers and smiles could be reduced to so little. Sadly, such is life...

I'm afraid that Lady B forgot to mention that I wont be going either.. since she couldn't go, I couldnt either, and then my grandson got sick and is in the hosptial with RSV and possible pneumonia. Then there is the car accident I had Monday..... ghastly but drove away from it. I'lll miss you all, and regret not going, I'm sure, since I also had a small surpise planned. However, Lady B is too ill to go, and alas, I'll have to wait til next year, or see you all at BRistol or MNRF....

Yeah we're all cute when we sleep... sorta like puppies that way. Only 5 or 6?? Several dozen work better. Long, slow warm ones that last three days.... the kind that curl your toes.... hmmmmm?? sorry, thinking about an hour of '5-6 kisses'... if you do it right, you only have to kiss once but make it last an hour. I'm thinking MOST impure thoughts now. and enjoying them all.

what happened to you to change your life, or made you sit up and wonder what if.......... this is mine IN A BLINK... Last Monday, Feb 4, will be in my memory for a long time. I was going home from Omaha and my friend, Andy's house, (Marrs meeting, yeah!!) and feeling a bit melancholy. Going east on I-80 and not really seeing much in the morning fog, I remember thinking, 'if a deer goes in front of me, I wont see it'. Just as I went over a small hill, I saw a patch of black ice in front of me. There was salt on it but not enough. My car spun 180, 360 degrees, going around and around in the dark and fog. I yelled and tried to pump my brakes but it was no use. I ended up backend first in a ditch, facing traffic. I checked: no blood, nothing broken, and my car was still running. I drove a bit forward over the grass in the ditch and tried to drive out all the way. I got one tire on the road but couldnt get over the lip. I pushed the gas a bit, still no going onto the road. Slowly I reversed the car and went back down the bank. Just as I got down a bit, I saw a white and red wall run in front of me. A semi had gone in the ditch and just run over the tire marks I had made.on the road. I sat for a moment, then drove in reverse into the ditch. I was worried that the semi was going to slide back into me, since it was a bit muddy, and the semi was slammed into the hillside. I watched it a moment, then decided I had better get out of my car. The driver of the semi got out and askd if I was ok. I shook my head yes, and then just shook a bit with all the tension. Another man came over, saying he had seen the whole thing and just how terrible it was. I agreed but wondered why he was so upset over the cars in the ditch. and then it occured ot me to look over my shoulder at the westward lane of traffic. In the Median sat a green car that looked like mine, only the top was gone. I breathed deep, and realized that a car that had been behind me had spun out of control. It had gone into the other lane of traffic and slammed into the semi, which then traveled across to my lane of traffic, almost crushing my car. This wreck was all that was left of her car. I stood and shook for a moment, and saw another semi almost hit a truck by the side of the road. Going into my car, I got my big lantern and tried to warn the cars and semi's to slow down... it helped a bit and no one else had an accident, thank goodness. An ambulance came on the scene, with paramedics checking everyone out. They let me sit in the ambulance to keep warm and make sure I was not in shock. After all was said and done, my car was ok and drivable, and didnt need a tow to get out of the ditch. The woman who died in that wreck was young, and her life cut short too soon. Why did it happen like that? I might never know... I have to think that it just wasnt my time and it was hers, or I'll wonder why there is a god that would allow something like this... I prefer to think that it was just fate. A cosmic instance. Of course, my sympathy goes out to her family, with a wish for strength and hope .. Meanwhile, I'm looking at life more closely, what I really want and what I can do.. I'm hoping that my future has someone special in it, who likes ren faires and movies and tv and hugs and apples and me! I can hope... My grandson has some health issues, but so far its ok. He has RSV and on oxygen for now, but he's in a good hospital with caring parents. Your prayers would be appreciated for him. He'll be a year old on my birthday next month. What a delight.. I guess my final words are: don't live for the future, live for now. Next year might not be. That doesn't mean you do what you want to whoever, but don't wait for after dinner to have dessert, dont wait for next year to go on vacation.. carpe diem.

how wonderful!! One of my best friends has a girl from China, and its been just about a year... she posts almost every week with something special about her darling. children are our stars on earth, making all bright and beautiful.

morals?? ooo I love them cooked in butter!! oh blast, you mean morals and NOT morels.. sorry. I've got too many of those to poach... but I do like the catch and release version of it. A bit of flirt, a smatter of friendship, a tad of flatttery and everyone feels a bit more like a hero.

my grandson Xazier has that too, but he's in the hospital with pneumonia too. .they are doing blood gas tests to see if he is getting enough oxygen.. William, a blessing to you and your son... good luck an health.

I did wish you a Merrydeath Christmas after all. :)

cookies!! bah.. you fight unfairly, sir!! and darn good you never tried that with me and rum. ahem. and on to other parts of the pub. Welcome, miss, and grand to have you aboard the docks of tthe pub and all that gather to wet the wind. cheers!!

Mrs Wolfe.. that is not a wubbly I see before me!! I'm sure that the story I heard was that the Dear Captain had bought a pair of earrings for you, as bright as your eyes, and just as pretty. Chance made them fall out of his hand and they slid down into the folds of yon maid's bodice. The poor lad was just trying to get them for you!! If nothing, he should get a commendation for practially getting suffocated for his prize. How brave to run the risk of suffocation just for you!! (soft round of applause goes around the pub)

Iowa.. far away, I am afraid. Closer to Pete and Mad Jack then just about anyone.. and of course Lady B is a rum bottle toss from me.

by the by.. missed ya all, including sleepy you. :) I have to be up at 5:15 to get my shower in.
