me, myself and i

i love life, i love my family, i love my friends

sometimes folks get too overbearing in my life

trying to control my thoughts, my actions, my days and nights

i do wear my heart on my sleeve, but that’s ok, it fits well there

but don’t try to control me, my thoughts, my desires, my way of life

i enjoy an encouraging word, but not to be talked down to because i speak the truth

if you want to enjoy a life with me, come be with me, and we’ll enjoy life together as one

if not, then keep your opinions of my thoughts and my actions to yourself, where they belong

i have sprung forward, no wait! that was a clock!

time….it keeps marching on….i say slow down time, but no, not gonna happen…

i took off my watch when i turned 40…never to wear another one again…great decision!

i have one hanging on my wall, my clock sits still at 12:30, has not been plugged in for years…

it’s nice to be at a time in my life where i don’t have to run and jump for time anymore…

when i get hungry, i eat, when i get tired, i lay down…the sun comes up, the sun goes down…

i get to enjoy the night sky, the twinkling stars, planets, visiting with Grandmother moon…

what freedom that is!  in one respect and knees keep me from freedom in another respect…

60….going once, going twice……

i have a habit of telling folks the day before their birthday, this is the last day you’ll ever be ?? years old

well, today is that day for me…the last day in my whole life that i will ever be 60! smile

and today is a beautiful day in the smoky mountains of east TN…sunshine, blue skies, 65 degrees!

i was born in GA on my momma’s birthday, her name was Ollie. 03/07/27 and me at 03/07/55

my momma became an angel on 12/10/15…i miss her, but so happy she’s not suffering anymore.

“be happy, be happy, be happy”…she made sure we could understand those words our last visit…

all of her family had beat her to heaven, her daddy Ollie, her momma Eula, brothers Roy and Ralph and sister Modean

so now her childhood family is back complete…so many angels we know, so many angels we love…our hearts are full…

have a wonderful birthday, Momma! and know that i always love you madly! SMILE thanks for always sharing our day…
