Just a reader, not a writer. I strive to be quiet and listen. I have opinions, but try hard to be respectful and not let an opinion of mine, expressed without care, cause upset. I live in a very rural area. A beautiful area, but have to drive a distance for a real choice in shopping. I don't have the time I'd like to have to be online reading and participating in the forums. Seems real life and it's demands get in the way of the complete life of leisure I desire. If only I had self cleaning everything - and four full time gardners. I love to garden, but the weather must be absolutely perfect. Just looking forward to spending more time here and reading and getting familiar.
Content in the warm sun.

I agree it is wonderful to have so much to read about in Inspirations. But running out of time to answer everyone, I want to make sure I wish Verity a Happy Birthday - a delightful new friend and magnificent writer... https://upload.storiesspace.com/601869710-06904323029b1fe22acff6b2d4a44902.jpg https://upload.storiesspace.com/2019957160-2b6e8a452b336e6c8ef4e278b63de78b.jpg https://upload.storiesspace.com/1368255187-84e24e1ec8b10ea4bbd04d6e337c22bd.jpg

Finally read up on what happened with the Nats-Padres game. Ugh. Surprised it hasn't made any of my usual news sources or Twitter follows. Only knew it happened because of Larry and Jeff talking about it.Love how you help out with the church kids, Sara. Bet they get as much from your stories as from the lessons. Well, as a native of the area, it didn't even make much news. Had 5 people shot and a 6-year old girl killed in a drive by by another car. That made the news. We have to have multiple bodies or a child killed or badly wounded to make the news.
Is this exciting or what! We will have lots of fun, especially if they assign us to work in the kitchen. Making cookies all day.

It is surprising how much changes in a lifetime. Cars, airplanes, refrigerators, telephones, electric stoves, big highways all over the country. All sorts. And people. Gosh, what changes. For instance, there was a little baby girl born in Tennessee and named Annie. Now, the parents of Annie’s daddy said they didn’t want that baby girl to go with her mother when she went to Washington, D.C....

High school is starting and I should be so excited. I am going to high school and my expectations are over the moon. Maybe just a little nervous ‘cause there will be so many students and teachers there I haven’t met. I don't know if any of my friends will be in my classes. Makes me nervous to have all new people. It still feels warm, but knowing the cooler autumn weather is just...

The world revolves my angel, and once more The time is coming when the days grow short, When happy thoughts of summer flee away, And all around is desolate and bare. Come fly with me to some exotic shore, Where bathed in golden light, we two can sport, Dancing gaily on the strand all the day, And through the night mount high into the air. O cruel lady, tell me what I've done, ...
