This morning was a challenge.. honey decided to sleep a little longer, thats ok as I woke him up pretty early! Then the papers didn't come as early but thats ok as we got through on time. Then he made a statement that wasn't exactly right and of course I took issue. SHOULD HAVE KEPT MY MOUTH SHUT.....JUDY JUDY WHEN WILL YOU EVER LEARN. He thinks he is right all of the time. Hello! Not all the time ....lol. Anyway, he gave me the silent rx after the yells. But as I expected it was all over in an hour or so...but me, hummmm, I kinda hold things together for awhile. But decided to let it go. So the day has been good. We tried to settle it again but to no avail, he still insists he is right...Is that a man thing or is it just him? Question, was it worth it to try and make my point of view? No, I think as I get older I will just walk away. He will not change, will I? Probably not! Impasse!
Well the day has been rainy , honey cut the grass, edged, showered and now is happy. Waiting on an early dinner. He will grill chicken, I have made field peas and stewed okra. He will be happy.
We have gotten into a pattern of eating early. I like that, then no heavy stomach when going to bed. I also made my mothers "famous" banana nut bread. Honey loves it , should make him happy. Keep his stomach full and he is happy. I learned that many many years ago. A man gets hungry and he is a bear. Feed him!!!!Sorry guys if you read this but this is the way it is!!!!
Christ feeds us with His word. Forget to dwell in it and you will growl like a bear also. Feed the soul.
Matt.:14:16. They need not depart; give ye them to eat."
Grandpa, thanks for listening, I love you.J

Well, how interesting that we both have had encounters in the last few hours. . . the question - do you walk away or do you speak. Somehow I think it's my calling to say to him what no one else has the courage to say. . . he is very sweet and receives it, then I feel like a dog and wake up at 2:30am (no papers to deliver here, just a running dialogue) Am I ever right? Is there a higher authority than what God gives to each of us??? It's okay, like you, I'm in for the long haul and who else would put up with me and all my warts, wierds and seasons of Mennopause that seems to last out into eternity :~) So we cook and it's all better.
You said it well...So we cook and all is better. That is what we were taught to do as young girls in the 40's and 50's, as we saw our grandmothers and mothers do that. All is well this pm...he forgets so easily. Me...well thats another story. I am in for the long haul!
