THURSDAYS ENTRY # TWO THOUAND TWO HUNDRED FOURTEEN

" Give of your best to the Master"

Good Morning.

Are you feeling as good as I am this Thursday morning ? I would like ham and eggs, two slices of bacon and two or three slices of those fresh home grown tomatoes, and a cup of that Sumatra x bold coffee, then I will be ready to face what ever comes my way today. But always remember this, before we do all this we must " Begin the day with God."

I had a real good day yesterday, I received more email, comments and cell phone calls than usual, and they all were from my long time readers, I know them on a first name basis, know most of their families, and they all know me as just DAD, and there are several young people as young as 8 years old that I hear from. One of them is Micah, who lives in Birmingham, Ala. His aunt Vicki also writes me regularly. Now that is the kind of a blog that I want to write. A lot of just hits mean nothing to me, I only count comments and the good times we can exchange experiences, pictures and any other thing that we have at the time we are talking. Now will some of you my friends tell me what you think. white6416r@aol.com . Just Old Dad.

WEDNESDAYS ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED THIRTEEN

" Time is so precious-do not waste it"

Good Morning.

I hope that you are feeling good on this Wednesday morning. I am still doing good, still in a happy mood. Nothing does me more good than to be able to sit down here and do what I love to do best, that is tell you how to produce a good tomato, I have added two more things to that now, roses and smiles. I do not want any honor from any one as the best or largest blog in the world because I am not. I am just an old man trying to do what is right and enjoy life and help you do the same.

I received this comment last night and I want to thank Scott for it. Dad

Scott Kronabetter has left a new comment on your post "THUESDAYS ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED TWELVE": Enjoy your time with your great-grandson. As always, your posts pick me up and remind me always to be grateful for God's blessings in my life! Thanks so much!

(Scott's Blog is good, click on the red above to read it. DAD.)

The Value of a Smile

The thing that goes the farthest towards making life worthwhile, That costs the least and does the most is just a pleasant smile. The smile that bubbles from a heart that loves its fellow man, Will drive away the cloud of gloom and coax the sun again. It's full of worth and goodness, too, with manly kindness blent---It's worth a million dollars and it doesn't cost a cent.

"Others"

Lord help me live from day to day in such a self-forgetful way That even when I kneel to pray, My prayer shall be for others. Others, Lord yes others, Let this my motto be, Help me to live for others, That I may live like Thee,

By Charles D. Meigs

I do not know the author of these two poems above, they are from a book Verses I like. and it dose not give the authors name. DAD .

This Video below is rather long and if you need to leave any time you will be required to click on the back up button, I am not sure if that is the right name for the button.

SATURDAYS ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED TEN

Good Sunday Morning. 1/30/11
I do not write a journal on Sunday, just stoped to say Hi. And to let you know that I am in a Happy mood. this morning. I do read my email on sunday. I hope to see you in the morning.


DAD

" Change and decay in all around I see. O Thou who changes not abide with me."

Good Morning.
This is the entry that we have been looking for, No more journals to write or read, Sunday is my rest day and the day that I like to relax and get help that I need to fight the battle against the " world, flesh and devil."

This is an 'opt-in' email alert from NeoWORX.net. Congratulations! You just had your first visitor from Asia/Pacific Region
.Visit Asia/Pacific Region on Wikipedia
.

These few words below were in a note from one of my friends, I do not know the man that spoke them, he lives in another country, Thailand . The reason that I am showing this to you, I thought that it was good. DAD.

Now I am thankful and gratitude for the last days of my life to enjoy reading, praying and singing the hymns. To reflect on the past. I know that repentance will not change the past but the future will not be the same. I trust in God for the future and leave it in His hand. For as it says in Psalm “Blessed is the man who puts his trust in God.”


Good morning Sara, I hope that all is well at your house, since this is saturday I am telling everyone that it would be a good day to go to Sara's Dog Training blog and they would have more time to visit with Oreo.

FRIDAYS ENTRY TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED NINE

" Your life is swiftly passing by, don't waste it living for yourself, live for other" Dad.

ONLY A LITTLE

Just a little smile will cheer us,
When life's hill is very steep.
Just a kindly word will help us

When a frown would make us weep
Just the sunshine on the waters,
Just the rainbow in the sky,
Just a little love so little,
And its value is so high..
Author unknown

This picture below was taken the day that I ordered my plants from Burpe, they will arrive in early april , and be in the ground soon after that, Picture taken by Mary.

THURSDAYS ENTRY # TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED EIGHT

Good Morning,
.
I hope that you are feeling good this morning, I am doing better, we did get several things done yesterday that we had needed to have done long ago, we got the brakes relined on our Buick, now I am going to feel safer, it did snow most of the day, and I hope that this will be the last one until next winter, my tomato plants are getting nervous. DAD.

I would like for some of you to go with me this morning to Sara's Dog Training blog, I want us to show Oreo that we love him, and are backing him 100% if several of us go together it would please him, Sara I hope that you are having some better days. Your Tennessee friend. DAD .

Be cheerful! Give this lonesome world a smile;
We stay, at longest, but a little while.
Hasten we must, or we shall lose the chance
To give the gentle word, the kindly glance
Be sweet and tender; that is doing good;
'Tis doing what no other good deed could.
