Ok, Ron...where you guys at.... to give me some strength this time...as I'm so full of emotion tonight waching the finals of American Idol..as if "Dancing with the Stars" wasn't spectacular...this show tonight...and to think that I'd picked the "winner" of this months ago from hearing his second song he sang. I would of never beleived it back then. But I was crying with such "love" for this kid...as they handed him his guitar...and by Golly...the world and it's music has been built on many an simple guitar through the ages...that's what I liked about him from the very beginning, the simple "roots"...and so it was he sang the last song as best he could..and started also crying...and then put it down, walked over to the audience and went over to his mom and dad and hugged them... and his entire family...and now I beleive there's  hope in the world for our kids again. The girl Jessica...and him sang an duet of "Where the Eagles Fly" that was so good and Neil Diaimond was there, one of my favorites and Steve Taylor really rocked it with hsi group airosmith...and I think someone must of been following me around in my life...by the time they got to "When you walk alone"..as that was an song my choir teacher taught me as an small child....she told us she wanted us to remember it...as time goes on...we would indeed many an time feel like we were alone. The group as an whole did an excellent job. I told my son to reember it also. When my son was in high school and Jason and old what's his name in Damascus were all friends...Dustin....I went over there one day when they were jamming on thier guitars...and I said...Ok guys..play me an tune...and they winked their eyes at me and started in...I knew it would be an goody...they played..."She's building an stairway to heaven"...which was an popular song back then..Dustin liked the "Eagles"...and my so called "totem pole" animal is an Eagle. Which means my life is simliar to an Eagle also....an endangered species these days. This kid's name was Phillip also...and if there's one thing that Phillip Lawson...William Porter (Lawson) and my hubby's side all have in common is an real need to find our "family"...yes, not just our legacy..as we know an bit about it...especailly today's generation...but we need to know our "roots" also. That missing period around 1750 to 1800....I shouldn't say missing...just vague in records...prior as to the parents in ways. They reopened up the records recently, the guys are back to it again...they must of found new information. Both have been very nice to me through the years.

Dee Dee called, wants to go out to breakfast tomarrow to celebrate her going through her radiation therapy recently. She's been left with an speech problem you know, from removing the brain tumor...she's afraid it's going to affect her wanting to go back for her higher nursing degree...but she's willing to take the chance as she said, she liked nursing..helping others. Maybe she can over come this also..I have meant many people that had problems they have over come...including myself as an kid. I had what was called an "lazy tongue"...what was that Greek or Roman orator tha tput rocks in his mouth and made speeches until they were perfectly heard by all...I can't think of his name right now..btu maybe that's what we needed..they sure worked me over for an coupel of years in school. several ways...one iwth my speech and the other with my speed reading "naturally". As Lynn Andrews sai dlast night...you know an "true" Shaman when you run across them...they spend ususally an early life with soe kind of physical ailment or problem. For my son it was an high fever when he got sick..he eventually out grew it. I was told by another psychic that he could run circles around me for his abilties. Like myself...he's more apt to run then want to discuss this in the family. Tomarrow is my son's birthday. I use to watch my son communicating with his daughter in her mother's stomach, when she was pregnant...she came out with an very special love for rher dad from that through the years. An bond, an love.. that is like an circle going and coming back to itself...one that's unspoken, but so very poweful...unbreakable. I am calming down now. so I guess that means that I'd better head for bed.  Ron, I hope that Anna's dad and all your problems go away...but tif they don't..know we are all thinking of you and wish the burdens in your life be easier for you to bare.  I felt saw my mother today...she passed over some 35 years ago....I thought maybe she re-incarnated after dad passed on as I haven't seen her much lately...she was at an cash register...she took my $8.99 in nine one dollar bills...gave me back an penny...so now I get to figure out what the message was she was trying to convey to me. Biblically nine in the bible represents Jesus...and of course the Lincoln penny with "Abe" on it represents "freedom".... Penny from heaven?.... Jesus gives me "freedom"?..... I'll think on it an bit. I started with an basket full of clothes, put them all back...so maybe she was saying it was better to cut down and get what I trully need...not what I think I need...as that is an blessing in it's own also...in today's economy. .Perhaps she knew I'd get all emotional tonight also...and can't get all emotional these days to much either.  It is Memorial Day weekend you  know. At any rate...I better get going for now. Next up..Simon and the X-factor will be coming back...to TV-land.

Ron: I do hope Sarah is recovering well and the news of your father in law is better.  Thinking of you all.

Shirley - I think you might be pressing the refresh button and that is why you get two posts (or as many as you push "refresh").  Rather click the "Latest Posts" if you want to look at the comments. 

Hi everyone in POEland - hope you have had a great day today - tomorrow is practically the weekend so I hope you have some great plans Smile

Hi dear POEsters. Nothing more to report just now, have to hope the veins hold out for Anna's Dad!

That said, Sarah's not very well at the moment, needing antibiotics to help her through her recent surgery and Anna and I just.....carry on where we can.

And yes CathyML you are right in explaining to Shirley about the duplicate posts. Remember to click on 'Latest Posts' Shirley.
