"How silently they tumble downAnd come to rest upon the ground
To lay a carpet, rich and rare,
Beneath the trees without a care,
Content to sleep, their work well done,
Colors gleaming in the sun.
At other times, they wildly fly
At other times, they wildly fly
Until they nearly reach the sky.
Twisting, turning through the air
Till all the trees stand stark and bare.
Exhausted, drop to earth below
To wait, like children, for the snow." -

This evening we were in a much different
setting with this cold rain coming down..
BRRRR
We went to a "play off game" for Nathan's team
tonight.. Close game! 6-8
Yes, the lost.. but games that close are
NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF!
YOU GO BOYS!!! WE ARE STILL PROUD OF YOU!

Mom had a really bad morning again.. they say now
that the cancer is spreading even more.. today, extreme pain
in her right wrist (*_*) and for the past two days it has
been in her back really bad! GOD BLESS AND COMFORT PLEASE.
And thank You for her decent evening today.
She was up and talking some.. even though it too can be
a problem for her.. She thought she had lived in her home for
at least 20 years (it's been 41) And she held my hand and ask
that I would spend more time at her house.. I told her that I
am there every day! She looked puzzled and said, I need you here.
Then "oh" she said... "honey, I need you to come clean these carpets,
I don't want to leave with them in such a mess" go figure...
She hasn't been anywhere in quite some time..
Today she went into the kitchen, turned the water on and went
in the living room and sat down.. same for the stove later..
leaving both on! GOD BLESS AND HELP HER PLEASE..

Today was a full day at work for us.. (and we were one person short, to
make it even harder) But we made it through the day. And already
tomorrow will be a repeat of the same (as per a call on my answer machine)
But, I am thankful for the extra time.. (usually we only work 3 hours per day)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
THANKS FRANCES FOR STAYING WITH MOM FOR
A LITTLE WHILE WITH MOM TOMORROW..
AND FOR HELPING HER WITH HER SQUIRRELS!
SHE LOVES YOU TOO, YOU KNOW

Norman worked on the rabbit pen today, for Abigail's and Nathan's rabbits
that live at Grandma and Granddad's house..
The rabbits seemed so content (*.*)
(they are dwarf rabbits, and she just loves them!)
