A big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to
gorengal, one of the sweetest and most generous people on LJ (and probably in the world!).
I worked for two days taking cured tobacco off the stick. I think I was about 10 at the time. My grandmother said it cost more to wash me afterward than I was earning!
To the ever fantastic Culturevulture, my former college roommate!!!!!
Gallifrey, of course!
| What Greek Goddess are you? |
![]() You are Athena! Born from the head of Zeus himself, this goddess is the most respected and capable of all the goddesses. Like this goddess of defensive warfare, crafts and wisdom, you are courageous as a warrior, cunning as a fox, and wise beyond your years. You do not try to be a leader, but you are one merely because you have the raw material that renders admiration and followers. Though you may not know it...you have the world at your feet. But since you are wise, you will not allow this newfound knowledge to go to your head. |

From my French professor in Junior College---"That child has the most analytical mind I've ever seen."
Seriously, it is now thundering and snowing at the same time. Wow!
My grandmother passed away last night about 6:45. My mother and I were with her in the hospital. She developed pnemonia after a bout with a stomach virus last weekend, and had not been responsive since Sunday. I got in on Thursday but she never regained consciousness or seemed to have any awareness. It was awful to witness and a mercy for her now, I know.
The visistation is tomorrow (Sunday) from 6-8 and her funeral is Monday at 11am, at Beggs Funeral Home in Madison.
I probably won't be back on LJ for the rest of the week. There's a lot to be done, etc. Thanks for all you prayers and good wishes over the many years. I'll talk with you again when I can.

To all my f-list! Hope this year will be the one to bring you everything that your heart desires!
I'll be out of touch until Monday. Maybe this trip won't be as bad as I have been dreading. And the best part is that when I come home, this time, I actually have someone I'm looking forward to coming home to.

Made it in safely...but it took forever because every single small town in Georgia had a Christmas parade this morning! I saw Santa pulled in a buggy by a mule.

gorengal, one of the sweetest and best LJ friends ever! (Not to mention a terrific mom, writer, and fangirl!!!) Hope it's a good one.

Ohhhh...pretty.....
I was joking around with my class today before we started the lecture; I asked them what I should go as for our faculty Halloween party. (I figured they would all yell WITCH). And several of the girls insisted I should go as Hermoine from the Harry Potter books.
And I must be the only person in the world who hasn't read them!

And already I've shot my voice. I can barely squeak.
I'm sure that for students this is a good thing.
