November 29, 2003 - Msg 17239: Mormin all,
I gotta tell ya'll about the dream I had last night.
I was visiting Mayberry of today. Like the show was real and the town really exists today. I stayed in the Mayberry Hotel (the shower was a mite small). I had left my bag somewhere so I went to look for Weavers Department Store for toothpaste and such. Along the way I saw the Drugstore and the Courthouse. There were actors portraying scenes from the show here and there.
I even went out to Tuckers Woods (someone had dumped some trash by the road, shameful).
Sure wish the alarm hadn't went off.
No kidding, I have these kinda dreams alot.
Have a great day,
Ky moonshiner

Those are just off the top of my head. I'll think on it and chime in later. (Of course I'd take Opie in the wink of an eye, as I have always been partial to red heads.)

Me and my little skin kid went to see a parade today! There was a real live tiger in it! It was a white one, with stripes and he just paced and paced and paced inside his cage. That was the highlight of the parade for me and mine! Parades always remind me of Mayberry because people smile at each other and are real friendly like, every one is happy and pleased to talk to their neighbors! Of course Santa came by at the end of the parade, but I hate to say it, he didn't hold a candle to that tiger!

Y'all have a great Mayberry Saturday!

He is far too cool to wear a coat or hat and gloves, and there he was, on my roof! putting up the lights in FREEZING cold weather. He must be getting a little older, cause he did finally ask if I had a hat and gloves he could borrow, and he put on an extra sweatshirt!

I think I will make the old stand-by...meatloaf and mashed taters for dinner. Got some leftover pumpkin and triple berry pie and of course we will round out the meal with veggies and rolls, any takers?

Went and picked up Johnny Cash's Christmas album.
Good stuff folks. I grew up listening to Johnny Cash. My dad was a big fan. Another good Christmas album is Kenny Rogers-The Gift.

Watched the TAGS where Aunt Bee comes to live with Andy and Opie last night. Makes me cry every time Aunt Bee talks about all the kids she has raised and how she just thanked heaven for somewhere to go and something to do.

On Wednesday the school where I used to work called and wanted me to sub in the lunchroom. As some of you recall, there was a big moulage and I left. LOL I did not realize how much I had missed it, although I did cry like a baby when I left. So, I would appreciate all your prayers about God opening a position for me, if that is what I am supposed to do. One little boy took off his coat and ran over and hugged me so tight. I had taken care of his in the "baby" room when I worked at a nearby daycare. Then I babysat during basketball season. (His sister was on the team.) Precious little guy. Lord how I love the children. I have often wondered why the Lord had not given me any talents. Well I believe He did and I have just let stubborn pride take me away from doing what I do best. (Loving the kiddos)

Boo, I got your email, and answered it. It'll be on your sister's computer. I'll send it to yours, too, and when yours is fixed, it should be there. I'll be in Fredbg on Thursday or Friday, and will stay until Sunday, so am definitely planning on us getting together. Should be a lot of fun!

It's good to hear how everyone had a nice time on Thanksgiving. It's one of the holidays that can be hard for some of us, but there's always a sweet side as well, and we have to just focus on that.

I think I'd like to have Opie's mashed penny - the one that was run over by a train, and was supposed to bring good luck. I always pick up "found" pennies, and have the little notion that my late husband drops them for me to find, to let me know he's watching out for me.

Since we had T-day at his cousins house, I was missing the leftovers something powerful. So Friday I cooked a small turkey, Saturday I cooked a duck and delivered an entire meal (sanz pickles) to them on the job site. Aunt Bea had nothing on me! Christmas tablecloth and napkins, cranberries, everything but the candles. I've really been wanting to use my picnic basket and this was the perfect opportunity.

I'm doing as much shopping as I can 'on-line' this year. I just don't want to get caught in the rush and crush. Thanks for the music link homemaker - I'll be listening!! Mary Wiggins - your poor #1 son - I remember being too cool to dress warmly. Funny how that changes isn't it? Asa dear, hope things are looking up for you and your family. Sorry to hear about the hard drive. Ya know, sometimes she'll tell you an 'X' when you've really got yourself an 'O'. Jerry, you should be able to play the banjo any time you want to here on the porch - but since you're on my end, I'll just close the winders. Don't be heaving no rocks, though.

Wow, we have been real busy around here. I have both trees up and decorated and the house just shines with lights and decorations. I also put up the outside lights myself this year (got tired of waiting for my husband to do it--he works such long hours). I actually got on the roof and used those shingle clips and this year I used all colored lights instead of the usual white ones. I have a very big front window (about 9x12) and I have a big tree in the window with lots of colored lights and it looks so pretty at night. The only problem I have had is keeping my 2 yr old from pulling the decorations off the tree and breaking them! I put a retro/vintage looking tree in the den with those old-timey bubble lights on it (neat!).

Well, enough of that. I am going to go and watch a Christmas movie. I am one of those Christmas freaks that you read about!

Later friends!

ps-I did receive your email, Ro and will let you know for sure where we can meet. The kids would like McDonalds but if my husband is with me he could help handle them at the tea room. I am leaning towards the herb farm. I'll be in touch...

I had a friend who got a toddler bed for her little one who climbed out of her crib. I think she child-proofed the room and put up a gate in the doorway to keep the little one from getting out and wondering around the house. I think a baby monitor is a good idea, too, so you can hear the child if he gets out of bed. Good luck.

December 03, 2003 - Msg 17352: You know, that penny in the fuse box reminded me of something that happened to a friend of mine who worked with me at the hospital (years ago). We worked night shift and one night the autoclave broke down (the thing that looks like a big oven that is used to sterilize surgical instruments and towels, etc.). Well, not having an autoclave in a busy labor and delivery is a real problem so my friend decided to try and fix it herself. She used a peice of aluminum foil from a stick of gum and put it between two wires that had broken. Well, the autoclave worked but the next day someone from the FBI or something was there questioning people about why someone might try to sabbotage the autoclave and possibly cause an explosion in the labor unit! They never knew who did it and the secret will go to the grave with my friend. We got a laugh out of it, for sure. The moral of the story is.......you guessed it, "CALL THE MAN!". HeeHee.

I'm not going to use "X-mas" on anything anymore ever since I heard that some people might use that as a way to cross out Christ from Christmas. I had never heard that before, but I must admit, it makes sense. I always thought it was just a way to condense the word but now I'm thinking differently. Oh well, I never did understand how the "X" made up for the "Christ" anyway.

Sterling, your post was interesting about X-mas versus Christmas. I had to laugh the other day because they had a local news story around here where a library in Detroit put up a "Friendship" Tree. It was very odd because it looked just like a CHRISTMAS tree, and it had CHRISTMAS ornaments on it! I really don't understand why the schools don't call it CHRISTMAS Vacation any more either. Now it is Winter Break. And Easter Vacation is now spring break...well give me a break! We all know what these things really are! Christmas and Easter!

Tonight: Tacos and for dessert...pie! And then I am going to watch 7 or 8 two year olds for a couple hours at church, and then I hope to get back home in time to see the end of the Pistons basketball game!

Mayberry wishes to one and all!
