Thanks fo rdoing that cathyml...we needed to change over to another day to post. I got an call from Marylin tonight...she tried to call me and she never does unless there's something wrong...we worked to- gether many years ago.  When those greedy people running our nursing home refused me any time off when my mother died...she was in high school and she on her own...left school...to cover for me. I didn't know about this until later on...but it caused her to not graduate from school. She married an guy that was an computer guru..and he taught her the business... and they both went into setting up company computers for large corporate businesses. She called to tell me that she was rear-end the other day, her hubby had just bought her an new car not to long ago...she has shoulder cartiledge problems. So she's in bed recouperating. I told her about Ron's web site help, but she sounded like she wasn't into working right now. I'll have to go an see her if I get the chance...she lives clear the way over from me...St. Helens, Oregon. She was quite teh help to me with my son's ADHD because the school's never gave much help or positive vibes to us. I ended up taking him out also. He got his graduation certificate...when he went into trucking school though..and she tells me to not lose faith in the kids at times. Sometimes the college students these days are having an harder time then the lay worker...it's WHAT you know. The entire time that Geroge Bush wasin office was just an time of pure hell for us around here....I can imagine what Obama has had to put up with in ways. I found our recently that even his historian to his family have seen to it that they come first in my mother's lineage names....I don' tknow because of this Masonic Lodge affilation in our family .. or what...but he's seen to it he comes first.... It's not right though historically. I know there's is something about "Kentucky"...the family lines being there and this thing of the Catholic Pope picking out the same area for spreading the church "inland" out of Maryland...but I don't know quite what it is ..kind of like an Mystery Murder. I'm sure it involves "money" though and politic's and the Templars from Europe...as well as the Royal lineages....which  supposedly stem from "God". Maybe someday I will know..it's been an 30 year mystery. Marylin's "twin" sister "Caroline" worked for us also....in nursing...she was planning to be one...she also married after school and they were getting ready to turn into an Safeway Grocery store on 122nd street...when two road rage cars..in battle...hit their car and killed her. So young to die. She called me back then also. The family is originally from Virginia. Had it not been for her helping with my  mother, I probably would of lost my supervisor's job back then. These other goonies eventaully saw the place to bankruptcy...that's what you get when your heart is not into the right place...healing others...esp when that's what your business is suppose to be all about. I guess I better go..it has been an long day...even for me. some good news and some bad news and time to head in. How many of you know that Italy had an earthquake day ago or so?...earthquake report.com is asking for more information on it. It hit in an very populated area. We are all sad over here watching "Borders" the book store close..for me here it was the only one we had in town. Many of my cultural studies I buy books that I keep...and as good as Amazon is...I don't buy over the net. I will truly miss this store. Again, it goes with the "dumbing down" of our citizens...esp as prices esculate. You know Nazi Germany it was the first thing they did...control what you read back then. First thing Hitler did was "burn the books" so no one could see any other's thoughts in the world but Hitler's regeim. Way before he became and dictator...the college students and him were rioting for "free press".I go for tonight....tired...did some more winter storage shopping...and I'm noticing something...less food our there for sale on the shelves...esp the staples...flour in particualar. They keep bolstering the shelves with other non-food items to buy...but you know people got to eat. We are aware of the wild weather ruining this year's harvest....and you ask anyone here....we have not had an summer as of yet. here's hoping tomarrow is an better day...I might not post so much so I can get into those post cards to others in POE. See how things go.

Good morning ...James...can I lose 5 pounds for you... and you keep your star?...I could use to do that...plus many more. Wind and rain...hum...sounds familiar. Wet streets out there this morning here also

 I got an call from one of the moderators of Fantasicform2.com as she came into the web site they recently closed down that was an spin off of Art Bell's in Nevada. Her name is Shirley...I left her an message to give Elk and Leslie my email addy if she knew what their's were.. as the site manager didn't give any warning they were closing it down.. so we didn't get the time to contact each other and do it ourselves...so goes on the net. Maybe an good thing we have this post card thingy going here in POE. Which I better get working on also...talk later.

I have lto sof weird stuff going on today...for instance, it's not raining so been outside on teh patio table lookin gof some of my books I have. I feed the cats outside...one didn't eat all it's food...so I put the dish just inside the door. About half an later came in an looked down and it's covered in little tiny black ants...so I took the dish and washed them all down the drain...and looked up and here's an whole line of them going up my wall to my cabinets...one I have no food in also. So I hit them with "Raid"....all the way down to the waste basket...and I looked inside the waste basket and see my cat's left over food from yesterday on an paper plate full of ants....so I dumped out the trash...trash bag and all. the mystery is...where did all these ants come form int the first place?...I went outside and looked along the foundation of the house...nothing there...I looked up near the window of the kitchen...nothing there....I took an electrical panel off the kitchen wall...nothing there. What is this an dimensional "bleed through" of some kind? I looked outside with the cat's dish our there...no ants in the vincinty. Just has me puzzled. My neice (Diana) had them when her and her first husband were living at Lake Chelan, but I figured that was probably because they were ON the Lake shore...you walked out an onto an small landing and it was over the Lake water...ants like moisture....but that is NOT where I live here. She could of solved her problem by having ducks...they eat this sort of stuff and slugs .Hum...just had an knick-nack in here fly off the shelf without being touched.  Totally weird day around here. I left the dead ants plastered on the wall  with "raid" until hubby comes home..he has his state pesticide liscense you know. It is not raining here. Usually ants come up out of the ground if it's raining you know.I go for now....where did everyone go anyway?...our other posters.
