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

Much Ado About Nada

I wish I had something rock-em-sock-em exciting about which to blog today.

I don't.

I wish I had something to post today that was sooooooo funny it would make you spit and snort.

I don't.

I could post about all the hum drum mundane things we are doing - - - shoveling the walks and drive, moving boxes from storage in the garage to storage in the basement, and watching NFL playoff games.

I won't.

That leaves me with nada but this little picture of our smiling faces, and even THAT I stole from Cindy's blog.

At least you know we are still alive and kickin'.

Cindy (Applestone Cottage) said...: Hi Keetha,
Don't I take cute pics of you two?
I had a rather exciting day! My last day in Phoenix, and I spent part of it visiting with Linda (Reminice This n That) formerly from Wisconsin.
It was in the mid seventies, sunny and we thrifted and garage sales and i got to see her lovely home!
Tomorrow morning I head back to cold and blustery Wisconsin.
