Voting!

Don't forget to vote! I went down today and got that done! Make sure you also pray for the poll workers! Try to be nice to them too! :)

I know that I will probably never be a tough, old bag if I keep letting my heart melt over every animal I see going through heartache but for some reason I just can't help myself. The other day a Sandhill crane got hit by a car in front of the house and for the last 4 days the mate has come everyday and stayed near. That just tears me up! It reminds me of a song I used to ask my mom to sing and I am still not sure why I did that because I cried every time. It went something like this:
There's a lonely little robin on a branch by my door, there he waits for his mate to return evermore...remember I'm lonely too and as the lonely, little robin I am waiting for you!

what is that groaning????

I was dreaming~~~bright and early Friday morning that an ambulance was racing around on the road looking for someone that had called in. I went outside to tell them that if they would turn off their siren they would not seem so incompetent and I heard someone groaning. I was looking for them and found them about the same time I woke up....to groaning. HUH? It was my hubby. Of course I did what any good wife would do and tried to "wake" him up and he just groaned. Finally, I shook him. "honey, are you awake?" AAARRRGGGHHH! is what I heard! Yikes! He was awake. My next logical question was, "are you ok?" AAARRGGGGHHHH! Apparently not, so I finally figured out that he had stretched too much and pulled a muscle! He could not walk much at all. I finally did something right and borrowed a walker from a friend. He is some better thanks to a friends prayers. Of course, he is back at work today. Not anything too strenuos I hope. Laying out a kitchen and putting knobs and such on the cabinets he installed earlier. Please pray for him if you think of it! He has back trouble due to a long bike ride he took years ago, with Seth on the back. (that tells you it was years ago):)The funny part---if there is one is that Abigail was also dreaming someone was groaning!

excuse me???

I was trying to look up something on ASK.com and when I typed in "how to" the following items came up...
1. how much should I weigh
2. how to get pregnant
3. how old is Barack Obama
4. how to tie a tie
5. how can you learn to walk in stilettos
6. how to build
7. how do I download videos from youtube
8. how many feet in a mile

some of those were entirely not on my list of things to know. Some of them I know :) and some I just don't care about. I just found it interesting that some people do not know some of these things!

Surgery for my mom

Well, it looks like my mom will be heading off to Noblesville on November 11th to have her rotor(sp) cuff fixed. I hope all is well with her and for any of you that would want to go see her she has to spend 10 days in rehab so it will be a boring time for her I am sure. Pray for her if you think of it. She did not want to have this done but the Doctor said she really didn't have much choice!
