Television
..I confess: I do not watch a lot of television. Yes, I subscribe to DirecTV; with over 250 channels at my disposal, the only things I watch regularly (outside of the local news) are: Castle, Dancing With The Stars, The Secret Life of the American Teenager; any of the "Lifetime" channels, and Joel Osteen--oh, and if there's a dog show on, I will watch that: Just to catch the Hound and Working Dog groups (go Beagles and Great Pyrenees'!)

Books
..
I LOVE stories by the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen: Fairy Tales. I enjoy reading mythology from all cultures. I like Richard Bach's Jonathan Livingston Seagull and his Illusions--The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah.I enjoy reading Authrian Legends, the James Bond series of books.
Eugene H. Patterson's The Message Remix: The Bible in Contemporary Language. This paraphrase of the Bible is VERY easy to read and understand--there are many people who discount this Book, saying it does more damage than good; however, it has helped me to understand the Scriptures as I never have before.
Shhh! Don't tell anyone; but my guilty pleasure is the romance novel!
Heroes
..To paraphrase the Willie Nelson classic: "My heroes have always been cowboys": Not in the literal sense of men who jump on the back of a bull and hang on for "eight"; nor in the sense of the men who ride the plains of Montana. My heroes are those who have always stood firm in what they believe irregardless of what others thought: Jesus Christ, Joan of Arc, the founders of the Women's Army Corps, my Paternal Granparents: George and Anna. My Maternal Grandparents: Joe and Nellie. My parents: Harry and Lola. "May The Circle Be Unbroken".
"Well then suddenly... there was no one...left standing In the hall...yeah, yeah... In a flood of tears That no one really ever heard fall at all Oh I went searchin' for an answer... Up the stairs...and down the hall Not to find an answer... just to hear the call Of a nightbird...singing... come away...come away..."-- *Lyric from "Edge of 17" --written by Stevie Nicks; posted in honor of my mother: Lola May 1, 1940 - February 16, 1999
"Who's to say where the wind will take you Who's to say what it is will break you I don't know Where the wind will blow Who's to know when the time has come around I don't want to see you cry I know that this is not goodbye...." * Lyric from "Kite" --written by Bono and The Edge; posted in honor of my father: Harry April 12, 1933 - August 21, 2001

10 of 469MoreDaddy used to say let your soul shine
When you cant find the light,
That got you through the cloudy days,
When the stars aint shinin bright,
You feel like you've lost you're way,
When those candle lights of home,
Burn so very far away,
Well you got to let your soul shine,
Just like my daddy used to say.
The instructions are to pick four people that You want God to Bless right now.

I picked you.
Please pass this to at least four people you want to pray for and a copy back to me.
This prayer is powerful, and prayer is one of the best gifts we can receive.
There is no cost but a lot of rewards. Let's always pray for one another.
Here the prayer:
Father,
Thank You for each and every day You have blessed us here on earth.
Thank You for Your tender mercies.
Thank You for giving us friends and family to share these Internet joys with.
I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and those I care deeply for who are reading this right now.
Where there is joy, give them continued joy,
Where there is pain, give them your peace and mercy.
Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence.
Where there is need, fulfill their needs.
Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings
In Jesus' name
Amen .
(If you choose to send this to more than four people, you are truly blessed to have such friends)
I couldn't think of a better person to send this to, thank you for being so sweet.
I am blessed to have a friend as sweet as you.
my Grandbaby Hayden
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children...to leave the world a better place...
to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee,
the small child, and the smiling faces.
Smell the rain, and feel the wind.
Live your life to the fullest potential,
and fight for your dreams.
“Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors.
But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.”
~ Kahlil Gibran
Many blessings of peace, love and joy !
Many of you, my dear friends, have asked me how JJ is doing. I figured it would be easier just to let you all know this way. I'm caring for him like a sick child nearly 24 hours a day. I don't get much sleep (I'm not complaining) these days so I often forget to get back to you as I have limited computer time as well. It's not that I don't read your messages or think about what wonderful friends God has blessed me with. I truly enjoy hearing from you and love getting messages, comments and emails. I do want you to know that if I don't reply right away I will as soon as I get a chance. I love each of you dearly and thank you so much for everything.

We need many, many prayers for JJ. Prayers were answered for Winston (and continue to be) and without you I don't know if he'd be here with us today.
I have put up a web page on Winston's site for JJ. This will make it easier if you would like to check in on JJ. I will continue to update this page. I invite you to visit it as well as our regular updates page. Here is the link:

Thank you so much for caring. Your friendship means the world to me.
Many Hugs and Blessings,
Sharon, Nathan & the Bulldogs (Winston, Gracie & JJ)
I am truly blessed with the gift of your friendship. I'm very sorry that I haven't been in touch like I should have lately. With all that has been going on with Winston I have not gotten too many chances to be online. The weeks have really gone by fast. I praise God so much that Winston is improving and is almost back to 100%. Now we’re going through an uncertain future with JJ as he remains in ICU at the animal hospital. Hopefully everything will be fine and back to normal soon. Thank you for understanding and continuing to be my friend.
Love and Blessings Always,
Sharon & Family†
