Saturday Cold

The wind came through about 1 AM this morning 40 mph sustained and 50 mph gusts. Down to 26 and it felt cold.

Didn't get blog in yesterday. Had to go watch the kids play basketball for Regional title. They lost but not without a fight.

I had bought some leads back when MPM gave us one for every two we bought. I have been working some of them the last week or so. Still not much luck but have met some interesting people. E mailed some of them today and called two on a follow up. I will take some more next week and work them.

Hug your children often and tell them you loveum.

Thursday O. K.

About the lady in the nursing home. She was using her room mates phone. She doesn't have a phone of her own nor a computer of her own. She is really not capable of doing the things necessary to have even a personal mall. Where is she to get her down line? No I think I made the right choice, I can sleep at night knowing I didn't put an elderly person at risk.

Took on some more leads today and called the ones from the other day. Sent out e mails to those I didn't get to talk to.

Every body have a great night and hug your family.

Wednesday Training

We had to go to Odessa today for 8 hours of Ombudsman training. Long day but we learned a lot.

Didn't get as much done today as I wanted but it will work out. Got some contacts at the meeting. They were people interested in the care of residents in Nursing Homes.

Did some e mails when I got home.

Might not look like a productive day but to me it was O K.

Read a story for me Big Z

Love your family like there is no tomorrow.

Tuesday Doctors

Sorry I didn't make my blog yesterday. Wasn't able to get to a computer.

Had to carry Minnie to the eye doc today. She is fine. Just a check up.

Called some leads I had purchased and talked with them. Had one lady that wanted to sign up. I was all hopped up until I talked to her more. She is in a rest home and only has $60.00 per month the state allows her to keep from her Social Security. The main thing she needed was someone to talk to. I talked her out of signing up and promised her I would call her once in awhile. We were on the phone well over an hour. Missed a mall but made a friend and I fell good about it.

Did a few of the old leads and contacts. Still some good sounding answering machines.

Tess tell Big Z hello for me.

Hug your family. Tomorrow my be to late.

We had to go to Brownwood today and help Minnies brother. He has demicha and is nearly wheel chair bound. Stoped in Ballinger and Millersview and cleaned cementary lots. Not bad but sure windy.

Picked up some leads in Brownwood at the Tractor Supply.

Ya'll have a good night and have happy dreams. Hug them younguns first though. Then plant a bug hug on your spouse.

Thursday Funeral

Went to a funeral today. Took up most of the time. One of those you can walk away from and say well done.

Did some follow ups with answering machines. You know I think I am actually making friends with some of them.

Not much to report today. Sorry.

Tina hope you can get into the blogs.

What is the most important part of the day? When you hug your children and tell them you loveum.

Wednesday O K

Well I was going to put some cowboy poetry on but kept saying I had html in it.

Good day not the most productive but it was O. K. Not to much happening. Got some contacts and did the answering machine call. Got some e mails sent out.

Hug your family and count your blessings.

Got it Enjoy

The Rain-Bow

An old man told me a story, one time

He must have been ninety years old

About there’s no turning back on life

And the end of the rain-bow, no pot of gold

He claimed he’d chased his rain-bow

For purt-nigh sixty years

And life was up-hill all the way

With sorrows, regrets, and fears

He had no family to speak of

His life had been rough and lean

But once in a while, he thought of a friend

That he had never seen

Then one day he talked to the friend

He hadn’t talked to in years

The name of the friend is Jesus Christ

Now, no more sorrows, regrets, or fears
