Fleeting Thoughts:
In life – the punishment that is dealt out should fit the crime.

Could I have possibly contracted Narcolepsy during this Minnesota winter?
I was amazed at the mileage a drop of honey, that originated on the kitchen floor, got as it traveled throughout the house. It must have been more than a drop — perhaps a dollop.
Healing with limited mobility allows for over load of emotions – more tiring and draining than a hard day of gardening.
No matter when I would visit my grandmother Laura in her home she would always be busy. I can still hear her say “What shall I do? I cannot waste a day that has been given to me.” All through her ninety plus years the words ‘shall’ and ‘shant’ were very prevalent in her vocabulary.
In cold weather the brain reverts to trivia. The definition of ‘active’ is to be involved and participating. The definition of ‘inactive’ obviously is un-involved and non-participating but also lifeless and out of use. For sure the latter is not a good thing to be.
Do not stand over a sink when flipping open the cap of a full bottle of prescription medication. When I woke yesterday morning there was a paper towel on the dining room table with what looked like popped popcorn that had given birth. It’s amazing how little moisture it took to allow each yellow time released capsule to explode and latch onto another capsule while it was exploding. Oh Dennis, life can be humbling and a good challenge keeps us on our toes. We just suck it up and make a phone call and find out what it takes to make it all better.
Definitions – Kindness: charitable, compassionate, agreeable – these attributes I exercise for my friends and acquaintances, less fortunate people in need, caring for animals, the people I meet in my everyday life as in the grocery store or bank or passers by on the street.
Loving: tender affection, enduring unconditional devotion – these attributes are my essence when it comes to family and those I consider family.
It puzzles me when a family member uses the first of the definitions towards me rather than the last. As I said fleeting thoughts.
On my hubby Dennis’ computer he has only three sites on his “Favorites”: The St. James Plaindealer Obituaries, The Mankato Free Press Obituaries and my blog. If Dennis logs on and he sees my daily post he knows I am o.k. That is really quite romantic when you think about it.
Today the 13th of December would have been my third child’s 40th birthday. Scott Howard would have made a great addition to the team of Carrie Brett and Kevin Michael Schafer. Sometimes I can’t help but wonder how his life would have impacted the family going forward. It was not in the Lord’s plan.
