Glenn Beck - The 912 Project

Ok, if you didn't see Glenn Beck's special yesterday "We Surround Them" you really missed it. It will be run again today on Fox News Channel. Please watch. Go to www.The912Project.com when you can get on it. So many people are going to this new site that it keeps shutting down! Connect with your family, friends, etc. and be part of taking our country back.
Also, please pray for the mental, spiritual and physical well being of Glenn Beck as he is having much success, much praise, fabulous ratings, people counting on him to be a leader, etc. and I know the government and those in power are feeling threatened by him. We need to lift him up to God who is good and is a power greater even that the almighty US Govt!!!
Thanks.

Oh, so cute!

What a cutie! Take a look at this pretty happy, baby!

Our Lake Frozen

Our lake was really frozen this morning - no ducks standing in part ice/part water today. Didn't see any ducks! It rarely freezes over the whole surface so it's interesting ot see. Long day at work, home for dinner & to meet with friend to do step work (finally finished - Step 12) and waiting for Adam to come in some time tonight.

It's cold here!

It's blue blazing cold here. I'm attaching photos of ice on the lake - the ducks are standing in the lake! Also, here are some photos of the view from my office window yesterday morning. Life sometimes comes full circle. From my office I can see the Wonder Bread Bakery where my Daddy worked most of his life and where we went to see him as kids. Across the street from the bakery is A S Martin & Sons body shop which was Philip's grandfather's business and is still there today. Wow! Also, from my office I can see the first law office I worked in (at the far right of the photo) and the next law office (at the far left of the photo) where I worked before going to work out in east Memphis where I stayed for 22 years before going back downtown. You never know what life will bring. It's good to have a design for living that really works, to be able to face life on life's terms, to remember that to live fully means to experience some of everything!

Family Drama

Well, if you haven't heard yet, nephew John Dalton's mobile home burned down and he and the little girls got out safely and are looking for new digs! Hopefully, they'll find a new place soon and we can start getting together all the stuff you'd need to start from scratch! It's really mind - boggling when you think of all the stuff you have and actually use daily to keep a home going! Wow. Bless all their hearts and pray for calm, faith, courage and perserverance for all.

Hope everyone has a great day.

By the way if you haven't seen them yet, here are the latest funny pictures of Genesis staring at her toy monkey! What a personality this kid is going to have!

Phil's Lodge Installation

Well, Philip was installed as Jr. Warden for 2009 last night at his Masonic Lodge in Horn Lake. We dressed up and went for a BBQ rib dinner and the ceremony. It was interesting. He is learning a lot with this group of men who are all believers and seeking spiritual growth and to help others. Today is the last day of a nice long Christmas holiday weekend and we have enjoyed every minute of it. It was 77 degrees here yesterday until last night when a terrific storm came and it is now about 40 outside! You never know what's coming in this area. It's been a wildly swinging weather season recently.

I'll try to remember to blog more often and add photos (for Cristi!!)

Love to all.

Merry Christmas and best wishes for a happy new year. We are having a pretty mellow weekend - have enjoyed visiting with family, friends, going to meetings, out to eat afterwards and a day of post-Christmas shopping as well as receiving photos from the kids of the grandchildren. Tonight we have a dress up affair as Philip is installed as an officer at the Lodge. It's been a pleasant holiday and we are looking forward to the new year - we are especially going to have to look at how to curb our appetites as we are both eating too much!
I will post some photos later as I'm not home right now with access to our pics. Hope everyone is having a good Saturday.
