"You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

HAPPY SPRING EVERYONE!!!

Happy Birthday Justyce!!!

 

 

 

Happy birthday Justyce!!!! love your High School musical Dress you look adorable!!!

time to start my AREMIDEX again

Hard to believe that it has been one month that Ive been off my AREMIDEX !!! But now its time to get started back.. I'm gonna try taking the Aremidex again,, it has the best chance for preventing a re-occurrence.. All the pain and problems that I was having went away within days of not taking it. I'm gonna give it one more shot!!! I'm willing to keep fighting this thing,, I have to much to live for to settle for something less effective!!! Don't you think???

I asked everyone to say a prayer for me and y'all must have done a good job because I start day shift next week!!! Darrell will be the next RN to come to days, I just hope that it wont be too long... We are always together and this will be hard on us to be working different shifts..

I really believe that Ill be able to handle the side effects better while working day shift. Thanks to everyone for all you support during this time!!

my little brother and the vending machine

tonight at work I bought a drink out of the machine, when the change fell in the change bin I had a flash back of about 30 years!!!!

My baby brother who is now 6'2 used to check all the vinding machines and the telephone machines for coins that someone might left...back then he was a little "runt" and he would not pass a michine that he didnt check.... as I remembered this i just laughed and thaught if there was a little boy out there checking the machines that he would have a lucky day!! I dont think Ill ever be able to get my change out of a machine again!!!!

thanks for the memories Kirk!! I love you!!

remembering our trip to California, Sana Cruz, and Capitola Beach

i was looking thur pic and came across these from California!!! It was really wonderful to see the ocean, I was fascinated with the red wood trees and all the sail boats..cant wait to go on another adventure soon!! Right now I'm content just getting things ready for this summer, we will have a good time on the lake this year because the water level is just right!!! Last year the lake was flooded and it was so hard to get to the houseboat,
