Porch BABY....

Image
Walked out on porch this morning, enroute to my car. Noticed a bird, perched on the top of the screen door. Upon further inspection-----it was a BABY! It's lil feet firmly attached to the screen and backed up into the corner as tightly as possible! I tried thumping the screen to "shoo" him on...didn't work. Then, open & closed door...didn't work. It would just squeel sorta! and remain in place! I went on outside (w/camera, ofcourse)...no movement frm that attached stance. It's lil feet were firmly attached. I tried prodding gently w/broom handle....nothing! I knew it was a baby, it's lil eyes were only slightly open. Went back on porch and put on my softest gloves. Went out and gently removed it frm it's perch grip....boy did it fuss at me loudly! I know it was scared. Took the fella out and tried to place it on a bush limb. When I let go....it flew....not well, but it did fly off. It came back toward higher branch & lit there. Aft...

I'M a SURVIVOR ....

Image
Got to get this out..... This past week has been an emotional roller coaster, physically exhausting and painful to my bod! It's been a very long time, since I've experienced a week like this one! SNOW, Ice, Freezing weather keeps me INside the house ~Strike 1. Lamar Fell in the snow, twisted his knee, and has been pretty much "down". He's getting better ~Strike 2. {when Lamar's "down", EVERYthing falls on me.} Lamar is so very much help, and does so much around here. I'm constantly thanking him for his part, it does take 2.!! ARIEL, began having Seizures. It breaks my heart....she's been so sick ~not eat, drink, potty. I've 'bout lost my mind!  Strike 3 I keep reminding myself -- I  Know that is Truth. I have prayed, called His name, and it is beginning to "let up" ~~quite a lot.  THANK you, Jesus.  I could NOT have made it thru this week --without His grace and mercy. The other amazing part of this impending rec...

MEMORIES.....of Evonne

Image
Isn't she beautiful? Such an ol' soul w/a very sweet spirit about her. This is a difficult blog to write....LIFEtime/Sista friend, and "Auntie" Evonne. It is one I must write for me. Tears already falling....it's still very raw. We spent so much quality time together thru our years. Friends, school chums, and then....she married my Uncle Herman. Wow! Now she was "legally" a member of our family. How wonderful! Our lives were so intertwined....and will always be that way. There  simply is no way to express all we shared in this blog! Evonne SHARED so very much w/me. At the top....her dear Mother....Miss Louise. Miss Louise was a friend, mentor and 2nd mother. She treated me as her own daughter. I MISS her so very much, and now, I MISS Evonne, too. As Donnie said....it SUCKS!! Evonne also SHARED her beautiful daughter--Bonnie, and her 2 grandkids. I am unable to clearly express the love and fun those 2 kids have brought to my life. All 3 of them w...
