considering it….I think the group was called somethng like 1-2-3 ??

I haven’t looked into my family tree and when my mother was still alive, she could never go back more than 2 generations before the names started blurring or being unknown. But there is site where for about 130.00 or so, they are supported to be able to accept a blood sample and see who all else has been tested that is related to you. I have…[Read more]

funny how some things just pop up, get really popular and nobody really remembers the original author.

Thanks, James. I am glad we finally got your comment up here so I can respond. Very glad you like. Actually a Christian song “Amazing Grace” is I think my very favorite song for bagpipes, but this one is wonderful too.

We never truly lose our roots, I don’t think, any of us.

yes, and before that there were some that seemed to “need” to pick on persons in real life (there still are now). I don’t know why that is, but it exists.

I know you have heard about some of the stuff going on in the United States. Looking at what has happened here, and hearing this episode of “nastiness online”,I am not at all sure that some of these people wouldn’t do the same thing in a face to face setting, which makes me even more delighted that I don’t know them and likely will never see…[Read more]

Beautiful tree, and good poem. I did some poetry at one time for a site that had competitions, sort of, in writing poems or stories based on a word or picture (both kinds) and know how hard it is sometimes to come up with one that works.
Good work, Jules.

Yeah, now THAT would be super cool. 🙂

Thanks.

Yeah, I think I would be pretty “horrorified” if the floors kept giving way. I wouldn’t be really happy for even one to give way.

Yeah, I would love living in an remodeled house, perhaps, after all the work was done…LOL

That is a cop-out if I have ever heard one…but what can you expect from the members of a party so far up trump’s rear end that they haven’t seen sunlight in four years. I actually wrote a blog today on another site actually applauding one of my republican senators (I have two, heaven help me) for voting to continue the trial….admitting, if…[Read more]

see my response to Jules, and assume it applies to you as well. 🙂

After reading your response, I have to say my first reaction is “why didn’t I take it any deeper”. I seem to tend to be so literal about things like this. A group of people eating and falling through several floors, is just people eating while the floor falls out from under them…and I miss any “allegory” that might be there.

Suspect you…[Read more]

Ok, I am going to respond without reading what you said so that you can get the closest thing to a “fresh” viewpoint as possible.

First, I was wondering what the heck was going on. These intense people were really dedicated to eating whatever that was. Then the food stuff bothered me. It looked like they were eating baby chickens or…[Read more]

My response is that if trump keeps his name and mantle on the Republican Party, that is even more reason for us to come together to make sure in every way we can that the Republicans lose as much impact as possible. Personally, for me, that means I will vote for almost any democrat over trump minions, for others it is other persons.

But I will…[Read more]

Someone remodeled the big house (Chateau) which is not my thing at all. I prefer getting an apartment as is, and not having to worry about it. Oh maybe pick out a picture or two. LOL This somehow brings to mind an interview I saw part of earlier today of Fran Lebowitz who emphasised that she is lazy. She got one bad job after another when she…[Read more]

I think surely within a month or so, I will be up for the vaccine here at “home”.
