"Murphy was an optimist!"

Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeThis Morning
Want to slip into a panic attack but I keep talking myself out of it.
The father-in-law’s preacher told a story on Sunday and the father-in-law recounted it to me. I’ll try to convey it the best I can.
He worried Tuesday and nothing happened. He worried Wednesday and nothing happened. He worried Thursday and nothing happened. He learned that things happen when they are supposed to happen and all the worry in the world is not going to change that.
Ironically before his worry began he was preparing a surmon on "worry."
I have been worrying too much and the worrying has been impeding my productivity. Time to let things happen when they happen.

“naked 5th graders”?!!! 1) Who would search for that?! 2) Why would it find me?!! (that’s evident. 5th graders reference is Sarah’s field trip etc and naked is in many references to Amy and Tommy) I get an awful lot of finds on “tetrafluoroethane huffing”.

This Morning
The inlaws had Sarah, Noah and Amy for the night. Wahoo! We could sleep in except that my body won’t let me.
Had a pleasant phone call from my brother where I talked his ear off.
Called my father to wish him a Happy Father’s Day.

Cathy suggested these pictures should be done in order. They are too big to render in a line in most people’s browsers so I will describe them assuming you are reading left to right and top to bottom.
The first picture (shows a soccer goal) is to the leftmost of what we all call “the lower lot”. Beyond the burn pile is the area that has a grapevine and will become a garden. This picture was actually taken from the bottom of the driveway.
The 2nd picture. View from the dining room window. The stuff on the right is being trimmed back.
The third picture is the view directly behind the house. Notice how our private jungle encroaches upon us. Note: all these “hello” pictures can be clicked on for larger images.
The fourth picture. Here is the rest of our rain forest down the backside of the house. View still from dining room window and to the right of the initial dining room picture. 
This is in the lower lot directly behind the house… June 19, 2004 5:02 pm

This is in the lower lot directly behind the house and is being cut back dramatically to be landscaped after it is under control. The tree in the right hand corner is the dogwood that is seen with the bird feeders from the dining room window.
Amy the Innocent June 19, 2004 3:30 pm
Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeA couple of nights ago Sarah left her container of makeups unlatched (Amy can’t open it when its latched) and lying on her floor beside her bed. The kicker is that while Amy raided the makeup, Sarah was on her bed reading a book and taking no notice of Amy’s activities!
“Come on! I didn’t do anything…”
“OK! You busted me…”
“I just want to be like Sarah sooo badly!”
“Eeyuck! Look what I did!”
“I’m clean! It’s the tub’s turn!”
Once again, Goof Off comes to the rescue!
Tommy Hides June 19, 2004 11:53 am
Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeThis is how Tommy spends an unusually large portion of his days now. Yes, like Prego, he’s in there!
In all fairness, here is Tommy up and about. He is walking the grandparents dog in our cove (our house to his back).
Don’t talk to me until after my first cup June 19, 2004 11:51 am
Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeLooks like its “kill people’s bandwidth day”! I hope everyone has a broadband connection.
Noah before his first cup of coffee.
