All day long my mind has been flooded with fly quips and witty inventions (for the demise of the flies or a fly’s demise, which ever applies). As I was going around (yes, again!) with the wand… Read more
The Law Posted on October 1, 2006 By pamela I’ve been thinking about a bunch of things tonight. I mean, I was vacuuming flies and I had lots of time to think. Seriously, hundreds of flies. Actually, it felt more like dozens of hundreds of flies. So I was vacuuming them up with Wes’s shop-vac. I have never seen… Read more
lingering to rush Posted on September 28, 2006 By pamela I always feel like 1 Thessalonians is like lingering over a great cup of coffee and fresh hot bread with butter and jam and then glancing at the clock: and it’s like a race to get out the door to catch a plane.

This and That… Posted on September 27, 2006 By pamela Tidbits I’ve gathered today from previous posts: I’m partial to Susan Branch stuff—Cookbooks, Keepsake books, Calendars… stuff!

So, yesterday, we were… Read more
CLEAR speech Posted on September 19, 2006 By pamela During a newscast this morning, I’m standing talking to my radio (I know, I know… second mistake) and I’m saying: new-klee-er, new-klee-er, new-klee-er! I hear new-cue-lur. Again I say: new-klee-er! It’s: new-klee-er, new-klee-er! I listen on… blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, newcuelur blah, blah, blah, blah, nucuelur… blah, blah,… Read more
Truthy… Truing… True. Posted on September 18, 2006 By pamela It’s all stuff I think about. Pretty often. Whatsoever things are true… Truing past events and warding off Truthiness. The longer I live the more I see that people would rather be -truthy- than just about anything else. For, really, if we are truthful, people might not like us or… Read more
smiles Posted on September 17, 2006 By pamela I loved seeing a comment from Kathryn… I miss you guys…I’m tryin’ to act smart for your sake!
