Skip a Dee, Zip a Dee.........

When I go into my husband's room each morning I usually go in singing a little song and dancing a bit. Anything to try and make him smile. This morning I went in singing, "Skip a dee doo dah, skip a dee ya, My oh my oh what a wonderful day. Plenty of sunshine heading my way, skip a dee do dah, skip a dee ya." No, I didn't go in skipping but I did go in swaying and waving my arms in tune with the music. This time he actually laughed. Now that made my day! I think the song is Zip, not Skip, but who cares? For those who don't know, my husband has had a couple of strokes and I take care of him. So it's always a joy if I can get him to smile for me, and getting some real laughter is a huge joy! He has two cousins that come to see him sometimes and they are both so funny. They have us both laughing. However, they haven't been able to come around for awhile due to their own illnesses.


It appears that winter is truly here. Sunday they are predicting a wintry mix. So far we have been lucky to miss the heavy rains, ice, and snow that many parts got.

See what I found? First time I have found a 4 leaf clover in a long, long time! Some folks that live down the road from us are in FL (where it's warm) and I am feeding their cats for them. They have quite a bit of clover in their yard and I was just walking along thinking about finding one and there it was! My Mother used to be quite good at finding 4 leaf clover and there are several pressed in the pages of her Bible.

This one looks like something took a little nip out of one of the leaves.

WOMEN'S REVENGE
" Cash, check or charge?" I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase.
As she fumbled for her wallet , I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse.
"So, do you always carry your TV remote?" I asked.
"No," she replied, "but my husband refused to come shopping with me, and I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him legally."
