Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Maybe I Should Stop Blogging - - -

And come back from my BooMama Christmas tour of homes long enough to decorate my own tree because really, I don't think my ribbons are doing a THING for it like this.

And even though the ladder is MOST attractive right in front of the tree, it will probably block the warmth of the fireplace if I don't move it,

Don'tcha think?

You have a Wonderful and Blessed Christmas.; December 15, 2008 at 8:53 PM
I can't find my blog said...: Ha! At least you're honest-I took close-ups of most things, remember?; December 16, 2008 at 12:34 AM
Keetha Broyles said...: Hehehehehe!! I HAD to put my ribbons like that to keep them away from the C - A - T - S until I had time to decorate.

It's all done now.; December 16, 2008 at 2:20 AM

Bonita said...: I came back by to see the stars and I absolutely love them! I might just have to find me some.

The tree is lovely- lots of lights. At least as your touring other blogs you're getting inspiration (at least that sounds like a good enough excuse LOL!).; December 16, 2008 at 7:48 AM
Anonymous said...: You are so funny about your tree! I always put everything in the same spot each year so maybe I should just save my photos and use them next year! It looks like you're all set to have a wonderful Christmas! We were in Indiana over the summer and it was very beautiful! Thanks for stopping by my site! Merry Christmas!

Lone Butterfly said...: I love the ladder! Just wrap the long legs in red ribbon - and make candy canes! Then it's like it's another decoration.

I know all about those pesky "C-A-T-S" and the havoc they can wreck on a tree...; December 16, 2008 at 8:57 AM
