Yes... Indeed.
Still... kinda down for the count, in Fluville, but... much, much... better, with every passing hour.
: )
Haven't heard a peep from Son, Justin... ; ) That's... Good News.
<3
{Sure Hopin' He's Resting!! : ) <3
I'm certain, Christy... is taking Good Care of Justin. Grateful. <3}
Didn't get much sleep, again... last night.
When I can't sleep, have to have gray noise while trying... to sleep.
; )
NOTHING Keeps me Awake, more... on Sleepless Nights,
than
'SILENCE'!!
GADS!!
Hahahahaha!!!
: )
Must have... the TV on, or... my phone... playing YouTube... whatever.
'Noise'.
; )
Fell asleep, to YouTube, woke up... at 3ish, to it...as well.
but, It wasn't 'Noise'.
{That's the danger of listening to 'Gray Noise', when trying to get to sleep.
; )
Should Ya Wake Up... at 3 a.m., and that 'Gray Noise'....
sounds Incredibly Interesting,
Intriguing...
and...
Meaningful...
uh oh.
; )
'Sleep', takes a Back Seat...
after, all... as Dear Carolyn, from Fern Hill, in South Amana, Iowa...
has always said,
"Sleep is Overrated!! Who Needs It???
After all... People 'Die' in Bed!!"
Hahahahahaha!!!
<3
{Love That Girl!! : ) <3 }
What pulled me from 'sleep', this early morning...
was a Jon Meacham interview, from 3 years ago.
I'm ashamed to say... but I will, I've heard his name over the years, but... never 'knew' who he was/is.
About 3 a.m., I began learning a whole bunch...
about Mr. Meachum, and our Country's History.
Wow.
Just...
Wow.
I'm going to post that old... interview, above.
if...
Ya have a Moment, or a couple of hours, Trust Me, It's Worth Watchin'.
{in my opinion.}
Dear Pal, 'Friend'...
Chicago Ray, gave me a call...
this morning.
: )
We visited for nearly... an hour.
: )
We talked about Life, 'Antiques'...
the 'Journey'.
: )
We talked about John, too.
: )
Few of my 'Friends'... ever met John.
: )
Those, who were lucky to 'meet' him...
well, they'll share their own memories.
: )
John... was a Very Cool Cat.
He... preferred to stay behind the lines.
I remember, long ago... during a 'sale' here, Polly... from Polly Ann's in Mt Vernon, told me she'd bumped into John.
: )
When John told her, who... he was, Polly said...
"He Does Exist!!"
<3 <3 <3
Yes...
Indeed.
; )
Love to Ya...
Prayers for All.

First Snow...
The First Snow... of 2025.
<3
Really... the 'First'... real Snow, of The Season.
It's Beautiful.
<3
<3
Haven't ventured from the house, in days.
but...
poked my head outside the door, this afternoon, to capture an image.
<3
Fever broke... this morning.
Feeling better, and better...
throughout the day.
: )
Grateful.
Son, Justin... is Still Struggling with this Flu.
: (
It's settled in his lungs.
{was so afraid of that. : ( }
Justin, is a Worker Bee, and... wouldn't 'Rest'.
: (
Justin had to go to the ER, yesterday.
: (
{Let me tell Ya, our 'Family'... doesn't go to the 'ER'... unless, we're dying, or...
other's 'think' we're dying...
while laying unconscious, from an 'accident'.
; )
{Car, Truck, Snowmobile, Horse, Stairs, Wrecker Winches, Dragline Pulley Cables... and, More. }
The 'Flu'.
a
'Virus'.
in my opinion,
We'd better pay Close attention to.
Love to Ya...
Prayers for All.

New Year.
Was actually awake, at midnight... to welcome in
2025.
I'd watched Perry Mason, then... The Twilight Zone,
{Which... I never watch. It scares me. Always has.
Even the opening music scares me. : (
Too many parallel's to 'life'... it seems.}
Last night's episode was about The Civil War.
Piqued my interest.
It... was very good.
then, watched Alfred Hitchcock.
Again, something I rarely watch.
'Spooky'.
: (
but, it...wasn't too bad, either.
Couldn't sleep. This 'bug'... is most definitely steppin' on my groove.
: (
Feelin' a bit better, tonight.
Posted on FB, about 3 a.m. wishing Everyone a Happy New Year, but...
didn't post here, because... I'd wanted to write something.
Didn't feel like writing, at 3 a.m.
Not sure I could've put sentences together.
My head is still so Clogged.
gads...
Dozed off, sometime... after 3, then...
woke up, 7ish... to hear the horrible...
Heartbreaking...
news, of
New Orleans.
No Words.
Looked through some blog posts this afternoon, from June, 2010, when Allyson invited me to join her, on a Trip...
to New Orleans.
: )
<3
It had always been a Dream of mine, since I was a little girl, to see
'New Orleans'.
So.... Loved visiting there.
It was Incredible.
Soulful.
Old.
Old.
<3
My Heart is Broken, for Those...
who were in New Orleans, this... New Year's morning.
: (
<3
Prayers for All.

{The top image, is a New Orleans Artist, Becky Allen, piece.... I was told...
that found the perfect place, in my bedroom.
: )
Found it in a wonderful... Shop, in The French Quarter, "Greg's Antiques", when Allyson and I... were scoping everything out.
Such Fond Memories... of New Orleans, as All... Memories, of New Orleans, should be.
Was listening to Ray Charles, this afternoon.
'Georgia on My Mind', over and over.
Somehow... it seems fittin'.
So Much, and... So Many, are on my mind.
<3
: (
that's why I don't watch...
'The Twilight Zone'}
