Rather dramatic WEATHER! Or haven’t you heard…? It was the Force of Nature’s 13th birthday, and she was NOT happy! A rather inauspicious beginning, but we’ve tried to make up for it.
Anyway, we sustained no damage and no injuries but some extended power outages, so we de-camped to my parents’ place in southwestern Virginia; even the doggies came with us! They were so good riding in the van for soooo long – the children weren’t NEARLY so good….
Anyway, we’re back, school is open again, the power is on and we are grateful. Now, here are some links for you:
- O.D.D. – we always knew our children were odd, but we didn’t know it was an actual disorder… so we are learning to deal with all kinds of things in better, more relevant, parental ways: The Total Transformation Program and reading groovy blogs like this one: Walk with your Teen
- There are loads of ways to help those who were so hurt by the recent tornadoes: Volunteer, give blood, send $, go out, donate items, send more $, listen to music, and more $ , and more $, and even more – it’s all good.
- A friend of mine wrote this book and you should buy it and read it ‘cos it’s GOOD: Last Bus Out

Now this Sunday is MOTHER’S Day. Be nice to her if she’s living; say prayer for her if she’s not.
It’s not easy being a mom….heck say a prayer for her if she’s alive, and then, if yer inclined, say one for me!
Happy Mother’s Day a few days early.
