    well Just a quick update for all my friends. They are calling for snow in Dallas on Thursday, So 4 thousand people in Texas ran off in a ditch this  morning Just to practice. It's been about 10 years since the metroplex saw snow. I can't remember the last time in snowed this early in the year anywhere in Texas. Now Snow in the Dodge area I can't say anything about exsept that this is the earlyest snow for the season since I have lived here, but any way you look at it I realy don't like snow so I would be just fine if it doesn't snow.Then the kids would hate me since they want a snow day. can't win for lossing sometimes but at least I am warm even if it feels like it's 1 degrees out.

    Okay so aside from the weather everyone in my world is good. Hope everyone elses world is well!

    Bright blessings

     

     

  • Not my words but I can agree. Have a wonderfuly blessed day!
     
    *Will Rogers, who died in a plane crash with Wylie Post in 1935, was
    probably the greatest political sage this country has ever known.  Enjoy the
    following: *
     
    *1.  Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco. *
     
    *2.  Never kick a cow chip on a hot day. *
     
    *3.  There are 2 theories to arguing with a woman...neither works. *
     
    *4.  Never miss a good chance to shut up. *
     
    *5.  Always drink upstream from the herd. *
     
    *6.  If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. *
     
    *7.  The quickest way to double your money is to fold it and put it back in
    your pocket. *
     
    *8.  There are three kinds of men: The ones that learn by reading.  The few
    who learn by observation.  The rest of them have to pee on the electric
    fence and find out for themselves. *
     
    *9.  Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad
    judgment. *
     
    *10.  If you're riding' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and
    then to make sure it's still there. *
     
    *11.  Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier'n puttin' it back.
    *
     
    *12.  After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started
    roaring.  He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.  The moral:
    **
    When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut. *
     
    *
    ABOUT GROWING OLDER... *
     
    *First ~ Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your
    age and start bragging about it. *
     
    *Second ~ The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.
    *
     
    *Third ~ Some people try to turn back their odometers.  Not me, I want
    people to know "why" I look this way.  I've traveled a long way and some of
    the roads weren't paved. *
     
    *Fourth ~ When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth,
    think of Algebra. *
     
    *Fifth ~ You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or
    leaks. *
     
    *Sixth ~ I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top. *
     
    *Seventh ~ One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is
    such a nice change from being young. *
     
    *Eighth ~ One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.
    *
     
    *Ninth ~ Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable. *
     
    *Tenth ~ Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was
    called witchcraft.  Today it's called golf. *
     
    *And finally ~ If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have
    anything to laugh at when you are old.*
     
     
    It is also true that geting old happens but that doesn't mean you've grown up.

  • I have recently found a new Scott Cunningham book. He is partnered this time with David Harrington. It is a wonderful translation of how “the magical nature of our homes hasn’t changed significantly throughout our evolution from cave dwellers to apartment renters.” I highly recommend it to any magical household.

    Okay so I managed to break my foot. Of course I have no clue how I did it and I’ve been walking on it for at least two weeks. It just doesn’t hurt like it’s broken, but it could be up to a year old. Go figure I wouldn’t know if I broke anything. I recently found out I broke my tailbone some time ago and it’s healed already, however I think I know how and when that happened. I just kept going like any good jarhead.

    Well School is winding down for the holiday season. Allen’s had one quiz bowl competition and the next isn’t till January. They won two of five competitions at the Greensburg games. He has had 3 basketball games. He doesn’t play the game he helps manage the team (glorified water boy). He is also planning to go out for track. I have to say I am proud of him. He is also competing in the spelling bee again this year to keep his title of Ford county spelling bee champion. After seeing the movie Akelia and the Bee he said “ It will be hard work but I can do it, if I put my mind to it.” He started the year out on the B honor roll again. The boy is focused. Dare I say maybe even a bit obsessed, But I think that is a good thing. He has a carrier plan to be a scientist working at NASA by the time he is 30. At this rate I think he will pull it off. He is a member of the Educational talent search, which means he has already started touring collages, working on application essays, and Appling for scholarships. He wants to get into Harvard that is his school of choice. Too bad I’m not rich. If I could get him in I would.

    Harley isn’t doing as well with his school work. Seems it can’t make it from his desk to the turn in pile. But he is in the regular class room most of the time. He only goes to the developmental class room for tests, reading, and spelling. Everything thing else has finally caught up to his 4th grade level. Except his maturity, but his teacher say he has matured a lot already and that the rest will come with time. Other than that he is 100% Harley, you got to kick start him in the morning and chain him down at night. It’s always hard to be a Harley in the winter because of his health, he can’t go play in the cold like other kids. So he gets restless and who can blame him. I think this year will be better since he has mastered several games and he has the computer online all the time.

    So that’s about it from willows world. Enjoy the pics! Bright Blessings to ALL.

     Okay here are pics from KCRF and TRF.
