Many of you have asked where in the world I've been.
All I know is that after 7 plus years of blogging and a different lappy, which I don’t like, I seem to have lost my blogging fervor.
Someday, when you least expect it, I will post again.
For those of you still waiting I say thank you.
Meanwhile, I am rather prolific on twitter. Find me: @KeethaB

To name my "Grand Old Dame."
But you, my bloggy partners
Gave her much more than a name,
You gave her a poignant story
And one sweet hour of fame.
Thank You

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

I can't for the life of me figure out what this post is about. haha
WOW...that was a hypotheticaLOT of money for a careless act!
oh man!!! that stinks! so hypothetically you could drown your sorrows in hot fudge sundaes while you were waiting for the tow service...
Hypothetically, I would have figured out a way to get your winder open for $25. ha.
xo, Cheryl
Sounds like my life. I hope those hotcakes were good ;-)
So sorry! I need to find out if the same is here in Utah...Your car insurance should cover for those kinds of things...
No way... what a shame! What happened to the officers being our knights in shinning armor when we do stupid things like lock our keys in the car? Its sad, really. Maybe so many wisconsin residents do it so often, they had no choice but to charge them!!! Wonder if they charge in Ohio... I am going to be careful not to find out the expensive way~
How dull and boring life would be without your great sense of humor. May the good Lord protect you at this camp and bring you home safely. You do a lot of good things.
Possibly the longest title ever for a post ... or a postless title? Either way we can sense the frustration!!!
lol @ Podso. Sorry you had to go through that, it's never fun to lock one's keys in the car.
The most AWESOME blog title. EVER.
Love you for making me laugh Keetha. Love when you make me cry (not sure that this has actually happened though??). Honey I just LOVE you!
I am probably the only one who knows what your really talking about! LOL!
Know what's worse Keetha? Get locked out of your home where the only locksmith in town murdered his wife and learned his trade in prison.
No lie, that is the truth here in BRF.
He was a teacher too who found his wife having an affair and went bonkers!
Now come say hi when you can!
Cindy
Hypothetically? Girl... you are too much! Have a blessed evening, HUGS!
Hypothetically, I just call my husband and ask him to hop in his electric wheelchair and bring me the spare key. Of course then Hypothetically he complains that I should just use my cell phone to call roadside assistance, that is why we pay to have it after all. Have a great week!
I've heard that an insurance company will reimburse you if you mail in the receipt. They'll only do it up to a certain dollar amount and just one key opening per year.
Plus...you should get AAA, they do it for free ...well with your membership.
That's a lot of BIG Macs!
Oh man! If I heard that---and thought it was for real---and not just hypothetical---I'd just burst into tears and then I'd have a tantrum. Unseemly, yet appropriate.
Ew. That stinks. Police around here aren't technically allowed to do it anymore because of the large amount of people claiming cars that aren't theirs. Haha. Thankfully we got a very nice policeman or we would've been stuck at Wally World.
Oh no, that wasn't fun at all!
