HERE WE GO AGAIN

Another week to get it all right. I got tired just reading all Amy did for Helen's funeral ,It must have been a very special going away. Made me think of my own and I don't think there is much to say about me. Anyway she did it her way. She would have had fun at her own party. 

Cold but sunny. The wind is blowing and just can't take sitting on Balcony. I wont tell you breakfast this morning. Not that is was not spectacular, as always, but the grapefruit from Jan's sister in law was the full of juice and taste just right. Loved it. I think it came to her from California. Anyway, it started the day right, so good. So with that bit of food news, I bid you a good day. Oh, I forgot to send a little happy. The first thing I do before I get up from my bed, I thank God for rest and usually a song comes in mind. 
With my rough wake up voice, I sing, Whatever comes to mind. This morning, why I don't know came---" Oh ware, oh ware.  has my little dog gone? With is tail cut short and his ears cut long. Oh ware oh ware can he be?"

SUNDAY, SUNDAY---JANUARY

Is this the first day of the week or do we consider Monday the first I ?  I don't think it matters. Sunday stands alone. A beautiful one . I don't know yet if I will brave Church today, although it is a nice day. I feel out of balance and can't get going yet. I know I am staying in too much, but I do what I like doing. Or what I have to.

O. K. Breakfast. No cooking. Frozen  Eggo Thick & Fluffy Wholewheat Waffle.      So good. I wanted the new syrup that was brought to me. Sugar-Free blueberry syrup. Could not get the bottle open as usual. Did not feel like standing in the hall with that disgusting old robe and wait for someone to pass by. Certainly  did not want to knock on a door. After all, I don't want that image to burn their brain. Must keep on the toes or I will be wheeling my cart of belongings  down the hall to Marion or worse.   I will look for a proper chance to get it open and enjoy some sugar-free Blueberry syrup from a friend.

BETTY(looking forward to that) BOOP)

p. s. it takes so little to make me happy.  

DID YOU SEE THE SUNRISE THIS MORNING ?

 In have never see the sky look that way. Every kind of cloud you could imagine and color too. I sat and looked for a while. Didnot change fast as usual. I had a strange feeling that one of my long time Broadmeadow friends had entered and things will not be the same. 

Expecting rain today. We need it. I will stay inside and watch it. A "perk" of being retired and sitting pretty. I took a neighbor, who came home from the hospital after surgery, some of my homemade veggie soup yesterday and was happy she is getting well and looks forward to no pain, thank the Lord for that. Hope the soup helps. Nothing more humble than soup. I eat some kind almost every day. SCV dinning  kitchen makes it from anything. I like it all. Soup is good for what every is wrong with you. Somehow I always talk about food in my Blog. SO BE IT.

BETTY (I DECLARE IT SOUP DAY) BOOP

p. s. have some today!!!!

  

WHY "TELL ME WHY" ??

Yesterday I wrote the words to "TELL ME WHY?". And maybe you wondered why? I looked it up as usual. It was written by John Lennon & Paul of course. All the good ones were. Anyway it was recorded once on an album. And was not performed I don't think much or maybe not at all. The Church of the Latter Day Saints have used it a lot, so they say. Mr. Google is smart, ask him to tell you the story. I first heard it sung by Garrison Keeler. Remember him?

BETTY (look it up) BOOP

p. s. you have so little to do. right?

JUST READ THIS

      TEII ME WHY ??

Tell me why the stars do shine?

Tell me why the Ivy twines?

Tell me why the sky's so blue.?

And then I'll tell you why "I Love You.

Because God made the stars to shine.

Because God made the Ivy twine.

Because God made the sky's so blue,

Because God made you, that's why I love you.

BETTY (love you all) BOOP

                            

IT IS OFFICIAL

 YES, WINTER HAS ARRIVED. I think. We have been fooled so many times, but I think 29 degrees says it all. Maybe I will get to wear my little red coat at last. I bought it two or three years ago, but have not even worn it. Covid set it back in my closet and there it hangs. And I don't get out much anymore. When we moved here, I was so excited to look out and see Walmart from the Bubble. Then Sam's came into view. The trees planted for the purpose of hiding their view, grew and I can't see it all now, but I know it is there, just can't see it or even get in my car and go there. Oh, yes, I did have a car at first. Got smart and stopped driving. So things do march on and change.

p, s, would you want it any other way?

2024 W0W !!!!!!!

HAPPY NEW . I START OFF WITH MAKING MISTAKES. SORRY. DON'T LEAVE ME BECAUSE I AM OLD AND ALMOST BLIND IN ONE EYE. I TRY TO LOOK OUT THE OTHER ONE, BUT THE OLD TIRED ONE GETS IN THE WAY. I AM TRYING TO BE POSTIVE AND BE FUNNY TOO. SAFE SUBJECT------BREAKFAST. MY LOVELY GRAPEFRUIT WAS SO FULL OF JUICE AND TASTED SO GOOD. THEY ARE WORTH THE TROUBLE TO PREPARE. IT WOULD HELP IF I HAD A SHARP LITTLE KNIFE, BUT I DON'T. JUICE FOR THE PILLS MUST HELP TO START. EGG OVER LIGHT, TOAST, PRUNES, AND COFFEE. ALL PERFECTLY, COOKED WITH LOVE BY THIS SHORT LITTLE OLD GIRL, WITH THE LONG FLANEL GOWN AND WOOLLY SOCKS AND A LONG OLD WINE COLORED ROBE, WITH THE HEMM HELD UP WITH A VERY LARGE SAFTEY PIN. WHAT A SIGHT, I WILL KEEP HER, EVEN THOUGH SHE CAN'T SPELL.
