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

And This is What I Call - - -

"Shovel Head." (Not to be confused with bed head.)

And goodness - - - it looks like I should wipe down the bathroom mirror BEFORE I use it for a bloggy self-portrait. But, I'm gonna go ahead and post this 'cause I'm totally shameless.

And all you girls who keep your bathroom mirrors wiped down DAILY - - - well, you can just go ahead and judge me! Hehehehehe

And the shovel head only gets MORE interesting when I shake out the snow and remove the red doomaflotchy.

See those healthy-red-glow cheeks??? That's 'cause I shoveled both duplex sidewalks AND the double driveway.

And of course, it's still snowing so I'll get to do it all again - - - - unless I wait for Fisherhubby, who is busy working in the ER today and probably taking care of snow related "stuff", to use the snow blower on the driveway tomorrow. Then I'll only be shoveling the sidewalks next time.

More snow please!!!
