WORTH WATCHING!

Take a minute and make sure all the drivers in your home views this quick video.
It may just save your or a love ones life.

I think this is worth the 2.5 min. to watch. Good info to know.

PUMPING THE BRAKES DOES NOT WORK.
TURNING OFF THE KEY LOCKS YOUR STEERING WHEEL AND LOSS OF POWER STEERING. DON'T DO IT!

This is a Consumer Reports video about how to stop a car that is accelerating
out of control. It applies to all cars and is probably a good idea for everyone to watch. We never know when info like this could save lives.

The Haircut

One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot accept money from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was pleased and left the shop. When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you , I'm doing community service this week.' The cop was happy and left the shop. The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.Then a Congressman came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his bill, the barber again replied, 'I can not accept money from you. I'm next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen Congressmen lined up waiting for a free haircut.
.
And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of our country and the politicians who run it.

BOTH POLITICIANS AND DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON.

If you don't forward this you have no sense of humor. Nothing bad will happen, however, you must live with yourself.

I want to tell you that my mood is very happy this morning. I had an excellent nights sleep. A man said to me one day, " I slept like a baby last night I cried all night. " Not me I am waiting on daylight to arrive so I can get out and face this cold cruel world. The time now is 3:52 a.m.

TUESDAYS ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND NINETY FOUR

Dad produced this tomato pictured above in his tomato garden in 2008. I hope that I can do that good in 2011.
.
I imagine that you think that Old Dad has lost it, but I am o.k. the last line of the poem below is what caused me to be thinking about spring. You can ask Mary about me or check the 3 outsidw cams and you might get a glimse of me wandering around on my cart doing nothing.
.

"Blizzards may roar, and streams be choked With ice, but never mind Beguile the dreary days away,When winter comes, with work and play--Spring can't be far behind!"
.
By Mrs. R.L. Peifer

So where ever you live if the tomato season is there or not we must think Spring, Some where in this world I can just see you eating a tomato sandwich. Smile.

When Winter Comes

Now let the winds of winter howl;
The snow heap high in drifts,
The earth is white; the skies are gray
But sweet spring will come back some day
Bringing her priceless gifts.

We may be snowbound days and weeks,
Shut off from our friends,
Jack Frost may paint our windows white
But stars will still be big and bright--
And winter always ends!

Blizzards may roar, and streams be choked
With ice, but never mind
Beguile the dreary days away,
When winter comes, with work and play--
Spring can't be far behind!


By Mrs. R.L. Peifer
.
Now lets all thing spring. Dad.
.
I got all carried away with thoughts of spring and have neglected to very important thing, one is going to Sara's Dog Training blog and see is Sara, Misty and Oreo are o.k and then I must get that that Sumatra x bold coffee going, if I don't have it ready I will have complaints. Dad

I am beginning this new month with another HAPPY mood, and I hoping that it will last until this day is done.

I spent most of the day yesterday getting my Wildlife Habitat ready for the cold weather. Such things as bird baths, feeders and my three outside cams. we have the cams in holders that keep them cool in summer and warm in winter. Dad.

We all are proud of Oreo that very beautiful and talented sheltie who belongs to Sara, after I get this Sumatra x bold coffee in the pot we will go by Sara's Dog Training blog and see them. I think that Misty and Oreo will like the snow when it arrives.
