At just 5ft. everyone is very tall next to me, also!:) I don't mind. I feel well protected with all my tall girls and boys around me.<br /><br />That purple flower is very pretty and one I do not know!<br /><br />Take care Merle,<br /><br />Love,<br />JuneJunieRose2005https://www.blogger.com/profile/10550860961892546101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898025342845778058.post-49697541439232707192011-02-04T02:57:05.303+11:002011-02-04T02:57:05.303+11:00Hi Merle....I love the photo of all you girls.

There's a proverb that "a (wo)man is known by his{her} friends" and her friends were the very best bunch of people I have ever met at any time anywhere. <br /><br />I so wish she could be here. It makes me sad just to think of her. We didn't even get on when we first met, all stiff, formal, missing each other's jokes ~ like a scene in a film. <br /><br />Then I got to know her and this amazing person burst out of the bloom of a lotus (so to speak). I used to be into Eastern religion. Now I'm Christian.<br /><br />I hope all is good with you. Thanks v much for your messages they're v much appreciated. <br /><br />I know I went cuckoo and I understand it isn't always easy to know what to say so I'm v grateful that you said it then, when I was still woofing (not barking mad full on, just a few yaps and semi-deranged snarls!)<br /><br />:-)Gledwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09308172310486574510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898025342845778058.post-36592736639513237672011-01-31T14:10:07.372+11:002011-01-31T14:10:07.372+11:00You have a nice family, Merle.

I'm sorry...Dear Merle, another very good post. I'm sorry it seems I don't make my rounds like I use to. I think I'm getting slower, and taking care of things, plus running granddaughter to and from school, errands for Abe and me, doctors and etc, plus housework, it seems I just can't stay caught up. I am getting a treat for dinner this evening. Our one daughter (the one that just retired this past July) and she's only 48, is going to fix it. The daughter that has been living with us, tries to fix something different over the week-end. But she's taking an all day nurse's aid class right now, so that leaves Sundays, which is also when she has her laundry for herself and her daughter, plus her school work and etc. So for this Sunday I bought a ham and we will have that. No work involved, it's one of those spiral cut hams, fully cooked and we like it cold. Anyway I should be doing laundry, but thought I could do it tomorrow when daughter is in class so I have spent my day at the computer trying to catch up. If you have kidney stones, unless they are stuck, why wouldn't they let them stay where they are? I wouldn't see any reason to have to operate to remove them, unless they are stuck and blocking an opening. My brother's aneurysm is about the same, apparently it is growing slowly. He's thankful for that. Glad you ahd a nice visit with your daughter and granddaughters. Speaking of granddaughter;s it's almost time to run over and fetch mine from school. I try to get there about 30 mins early to find a good spot to park, and while I wait I read one of the Chicken Soup For The Soul books. Take care and thanks for your visits. I truly enjoy your friendship.
