United 93 on Sept 11th

I watched the "Flight 93" movie again. I have only seen it once before. They had a TV program about it years ago and how the movie was made from piecing together actions from the many phone calls made from the plane. It still makes me cry. In going through stuff I found that I have two different movies of the same event. I'll watch the other one at some point and see what their take on this is. Knowing how Sept 11th changed our lives forever it just renews my stand behind our military and increases my prayers for their success. Since there is nothing else I can do I have to take comfort in that. I am so blessed to live in this country even with all our crime we are so blessed. I try to be careful and be very grateful. Blessings to us all.

Agatha Christie Play

I went with Mom and Dad to the Jewel Box Theatre last night and saw the Agatha Christie play "And then there were none". I was surprised since having seen the movie of it I thought I knew the ending. Wow, and then there were none. How bout that. I didn't have to work today so I slept in until 9:30, very late for me. Mom and Dad brought lunch over. It was delicious Taco Bell. Dad has always supplied dessert, his favorite candy bars. It is colder here but at least the rain has gone away for now. I am working on Christmas stockings for the Grandkids classes.

October 11th

Wow this would have been my anniversary. It is cold and cloudy but I am snug inside with a fire going. This weekend my cousin Jean passed away. For several reasons the hospital will have her cremated. My Mom her Aunt has a problem with cremation. I am praying for Mother to be able to handle this. My youngest Grandson had a respiratory emergency last night so I spent a lot of time in prayer for him. I am getting through my meds to be over the flu and my sinus infection. Hopefully the start of the week will be a return to "normal". I am going through stuff and getting it ready to go to the kids and grandkids. I have become excited by emply cabinets, never had them before.

How exciting for my eldest Granddaughter

Autumn's art work has been selected to represent the 2nd grade in the annual art show at the Botanical Gardens. I am so happy for her and so pleased for the family.

Happy Birthday to Me. I am having a good day. I went to the Chapel Service at church this morning. Mom and Dad called me at 10:09 AM to mark my birth. I have gone through lots of stuff this weekend and boxes stuff for the children and thrown away a lot of stuff that no longer seems important. We all go through stages when "stuff" is keepable then it loses it's critical need to keep. I had the goal of paying all my bill when I turned 50. Well of course I haven't paid everything off but with that goal in mind it has given me the mind set I needed to get a good start on it. Life keeps getting in the way but the goal is now "pay stuff try not to add to your collections". HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME I am going to have a great rest of my day learning how to be 51.
