Drugged as a kid
Jan 29, 2008 | 12:02PM

The moms who drugged us!

The other day, someone at a store in our town read
that a Methamphetamine lab had been found in an old
farmhouse in the adjoining county and he asked me a
rhetorical question.

Why didn't we have a drug problem when you and I were growing up?"

I replied, I did have a drug problem when I was young:
I was drug to church on Sunday morning. I was drug
to church for weddings and funerals.

I was drug to family reunions and community socials
no matter the weather.

I was drug by my ears when I was disrespectful to
adults.

I was drug to the kitchen sink to have my mouth
washed out with soap if I uttered a profanity I was
drug out to pull weeds in mom's garden and flower
beds and out of dad's fields.

I was drug to the homes of family, friends, and
neighbors to help out some poor soul who had no one
to mow the yard, repair the clothesline, or chop
some firewood; and, if my mother had ever known that
I took a single dime as a tip for this kindness, she
would have drug me to the woodshed.

Those drugs are still in my veins and they affect my behavior in everything I do, say, or think. They are stronger than cocaine, crack, or heroin; and, if today's children had this kind of drug problem, America would be a better place.

God bless the parents who drugged us.

HERE'S A JOKE 4 U

God Loves Blondes
A blonde finds herself in serious financial trouble. Her business has gone bust and she's in dire financial straits. She's desperate so she decides to ask God for help.

She begins to pray... 'God, please help me. I've lost my business and if I don't get some money, I'm going to lose my house as well. Please let me win the lottery.'

Lottery night comes, and somebody else wins.

She again prays... 'God, please let me win the lottery! I've lost my business, my house and I'm going to lose my car as well.'

Lottery night comes and she still has no luck.

Once again, she prays... 'My God, why have you forsaken me? I've lost my business, my house, and my car. My children are starving. I don't often ask You for help, and I've always been a good servant to You. PLEASE let me win the lottery just this one time so I can get my life back in order.'

Suddenly there is a blinding flash of light as the heavens open. The blonde is overwhelmed by the Voice of God, Himself....

'Sweetheart, work with Me on this.... Buy a ticket.'

Neverending pt.1
Jan 10, 2008 | 12:26AM

I came all the way out here thinking that nature could cleanse me of my thoughts. I sit here with the cool wind blowing off the water and the sound of grasshoppers chripping. It is so beautiful here today. The quiet and no one else around. I feel at home here. At least here I'm not waiting for the phone to ring or have the worries of entertaining unexpected guests. There's no memories to fight with. No ghosts to show themselves. I am alone. Wish I would've thought to bring a blanket. I could sleep here in the deep, darkness of my surroundings. I know I only have myself to blame for my stupidity and that scares me. I think i'll walk further now. As the darkness of my insecurities surrounds me even more I am frightened by them. I know what it is to love and be loved but still I worry. I am alone. There is no one here to hold me and tell that it will be okay. I have no shoulder to cry upon. No ear to hear my pleas. I AM ALONE. I feel confused and misguided. I've always known that I was second to something or someone. It's more peaceful here than the other spot. Just the sounds of nature now. No voices, no nothing. Wish I would've thought this out more. There's stuff I should've brought with me. BUT this is impulse and that means no planning ahead. If need be I will sleep in the car if the decision not to go back there arises. I want to break down and cry, for I feel my heart. It is breaking and my soul hurts like someone has stabbed me deeply. I don't know what to do. I am alone. No one is here to comfort me or tell me it's going to be okay. Smiley

Just me

Just sitting here watching the world go by. Have you ever just watched the people that are around you? I have a strange fascination with people. I like to watch them as they interact with one another. You can always tell which ones are in it for love and which ones aren't. There's always something there just below the surface. You look into their eyes and see what it is that they're thinking of the person that they are with. Sometimes you feel sorry for the other person for the simple fact that you know that they are just going to be disappointed at the end of the night. There won't be that phone call the next day or the weeks following. Only that shear, painful truth that they weren't the one. Don't get me wrong because I've been there too. It's not a nice feeling but it's something that you can learn from. On the other hand though. You have to look at this way. At least you got a free meal and a movie out of it...lol. I mean there is always an upside to it. That is if you go on a date with real gentleman and not some guy who mysteriously forgets his wallet or doesn't have enough money to pay for you to. But if he's the one who asks you out then wouldn't you think he would be prepared to pay for you to unless it was discussed up front that it was dutch. Because if was suppose to be dutch then it's not really a "date" to begin with so there's no reason to get all prettied up for him in the first place. I mean it's fair right? Because then it's just two friends hanging out and nothing more. At least that's the way I see it. There are tricks to getting around all of it. Of course sometimes this works to your advantage because the next time they want you to go out with them they will want it to be a "date" and offer to pay for everything because they realize what they really are missing out on. Just think about it...I mean really. But anyway I'm done rambling for now. Have a wonderful day...LATERZ Smiley
