19691. judithathome - 7/1/2006 4:46:51 AM Hey, have a great time and if you need a rest going or coming, give us a call...the guest room is still pristine!
Went to a memorial service tonight for Keoni's co-worker's husband who evidently was a wonderful man but you'd never have known it from the captive-audience sermon that was delivered in place of his memorial...I told Keoni he'd better hope his friends and co-workers stayed healthy because this is the last one of this type I'm ever going to attend.
19692. arkymalarky - 7/1/2006 5:02:11 AM Thanks so much, Judith! I LOVE your guest room. We will certainly call you if we go that direction, but----Mazie will be with us! It's her first real road trip, and I'm anxious/nervous to see how it goes.
I was going to email you about this, Judith, but I'm going to call them out myself right here:
Frank and Seadate, if you're out there, this is the FIFTH annual, and we've got people coming who'd LOVE to see you! I'll email you both when I get back from CO, but if you can possibly do it, we'd love to see you again!
19693. arkymalarky - 7/1/2006 5:04:52 AM It's a shame someone's wonderful memories aren't the focus of a memorial service because of a tunnel-visioned preacher who can't appreciate the person everyone is there to remember.
Both my grandparents' (on my mother's side) funerals were preached by people who didn't know them, because they got ill and the preachers changed while they were sick, but both preachers bothered to talk with the family and find out what my grandparents were like and delivered wonderful memorial services for them, without pretending to know them--just reflecting on what we'd told them. 19694. arkymalarky - 7/1/2006 5:07:46 AM I can't believe I'm finally on the other side of that twelve day seminar. Now I have a semester's worth of work to do to complete the requirements, but it was quite an experience. Can't say I'd turn right around and do it again, but most of it was really great and I'm looking forward to applying it to my new teaching career experience, and possibly a permanent new direction. We'll see. 19695. Ulgine Barrows - 7/1/2006 5:08:17 AM I just endured some dogs barking, and then my husband oferred me some beans, and husband started whacking me on the backside when I coughed.
Yum, yum, yum

When Bob and I first married he worked the night shift and we kept a large spiral notebook on the kitchen table and wrote each other every day/night. I still have it, but haven't looked at it since we moved into this house. I don't know what Mose will think, but I hope she will cherish it when she gets it. 19697. Ulgine Barrows - 7/1/2006 5:13:48 AM Great idea, thanks. 19698. Ulgine Barrows - 7/1/2006 5:16:27 AM I like the f00d i just 8, and I love you people more. 19699. Ulgine Barrows - 7/1/2006 6:09:08 AM this is the worst trip I've ever been on 19700. Ulgine Barrows - 7/1/2006 6:11:24 AM God only knows what I'd be without you 19701. Ulgine Barrows - 7/1/2006 6:13:11 AM I know so many people who think they can do it alone
They isolate their heads and stay in their saftey zones
Now what can you tell them
And what can you say that won't make them defensive

O I forgot to comment on this rarified life post by 19625. webfeet - 6/13/2006 5:11:38 AM
Another scary saturday at a children's birthday.
I had lots of fun reading your post, imagining other paths and other lives. 19704. Magoseph - 7/2/2006 8:31:46 AM Bonnes vacances, Arky!
Hi, Pelle, tell us about your vacation. 19705. arkymalarky - 7/2/2006 1:59:37 PM Thanks Mags.
We're off like a herd of turtles. See y'all in a couple of weeks, more or less. 19706. judithathome - 7/2/2006 8:24:41 PM When you get back, Arks, I might have heard from Frankster and Seadate...shot them off emails this morning! 19707. arkymalarky - 7/3/2006 6:08:55 AM I'm BAAAACK!
That is SO great, Judith! I'll keep my fingers crossed for the whole month!
Forgot about wireless in hotels. This is so cool. No wireless at the cabin, but still. It's especially nice after being on the road all day just to check everything out and unwind a little before bed.
See y'all on the way back, maybe, and who knows in between.
19708. Magoseph - 7/5/2006 11:52:44 AM Hello, Moties,
The Fourth of July was safely enjoyed at home--What did you do yesterday? 19709. wonkers2 - 7/5/2006 7:58:36 PM Nothing very exciting. Watched fireworks from our patio in the back yard. Created a couple of web pages on the Hubpages.com beta bsite developed by my son and a couple of his buddies. I'll link some once the site is released. A couple of previous links were premature and didn't work because the site is still password protected. 19710. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 7/5/2006 8:39:27 PM Litterboxes? We don't need no stinkin' litterboxes!
