Sometimes


sometimes there is light, and sometimes there is darkness

sometimes there is laughter, and sometimes there is tears

sometimes there is hurt, and sometimes there is glee

sometimes there is wealth, and sometimes there is lack of means

sometimes there is life, and sometimes there is death

sometimes there are words, and sometimes there is silence

sometimes life will be, and sometimes life will be

and thru all these sometimes, we are here, to listen, to talk, to share

i am grateful

Good Morning Tina - Congrats on first (69), Zona-My-Baby, you have mail, Carol, Birdee, Goldie and Mek.

Carol - I loved your blog. It is so true. I was so busy yesterday, I still have that video to listen to. I have been getting ready to go away with the family for a Valentine weekend at Tigh Na Mara. (You can google it). It should be a fun weekend. If my MacBook's new battery is here, I will check in from there. Have a great Valentine's Day everyone.

VIG - I will see you when I get back. Hope you are feeling better.

Tinkatia said...

I think I will march because I won't be back on again today.

Tinkatia said...

Birdee - I loved the letter you sent me.

Tinkatia said...

Mek - Have fun with your puppy.

Tinkatia said...

Goldie - I am grateful for the nest too. It is my home away from home.

Carol: The Byrds were humming away in my head as I read your blog:

To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven

A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep

To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven

A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones
A time to gather stones together

To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven

A time of war, a time of peace
A time of love, a time of hate
A time you may embrace
A time to refrain from embracing

To everything - turn, turn, turn
There is a season - turn, turn, turn
And a time for every purpose under heaven

A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sew
A time to love, a time to hate
A time of peace, I swear it's not too late!

:)


Tink: I did google Tigh Na Mara. Wow! Those views of the Pacific from the hotel rooms look spectacular! Relax, pamper yourself, and have a great time!

BTW, is ex-hubby coming too? ;)

Sandie said...

Congrats on first, pretty Eunice!

Carol, sweet blog! I'm so happy I'm grateful and so grateful I'm happy!! :) LOL@catching your Mom!

Hi Sweet Birdee!!

Goodnight, Zona!

Good morning, Goldie

MEK, all the town is gearing up for Master's week! (I just told you that because when I see your name I think "golf!") :)

Tinka, I know you'll have a wonderful weekend with your family--enjoy!!

Hi Whabby!

It's just so pretty here today I can't help but be in a great mood (even if I was up late helping my son finish his senior project that he started at the beginning of the school year and was due today --arrgg!)

whabbear said...

Hi, Sandie!

Tinkatia said...

Good Morning Whabbear and Sandie - Thank you. I think we will all have a great time. It's the place to relax. Yes Bear, he is.

Mary/MI said...

Good "Thankful morning" MEK,Tina, Goldie, Carol,Birdee,Tinka,
Zona :),Whabbear ,Sandi and all "hither-come-fly-lately" friends!

Carol, you put me in a "yellow" mood today! Thank-you muah!

I wish I could stay and play, but I have shit,showered and shaved and am off to visit my baby sister Lena on her Birthday. It is windier
then hell out there. My jeep may feel a little {{rocky}}!
No flapping of my wings today!!
I hope everyone has a wonderful yellow day!!

Lynn D said...

Morning Glories!

No rest for the weary or muscle strained people. I am laid up with a neck strain that is radiating to my lower back. Unfortunately I have Ritchie to take care of too.

His Dad is in the hospital with a burst appendix and my daughter is going between the hospital and work.

Should be interesting to see how I manage with the little one.

Will try to be back later, tho it could be tomorrow.

Ibuprofen and heat. Baby swings are a godsend.

sacBarb said...

Happy Thursday Owls.

Carol, today's blog is a perfect description of our nest. I am grateful, too. Thank you.

Tina, another 69 for you.

Zona got FORE annnnnnd

MEK got FORETEEN

Tina, congrats on another 25 and have fun with the family this weekend.

Bear, the same song came to mind as I was reading the blog.

Mary, Happy Birthday to your sis and prayers for Jaimie. And Hi to Raquel, too.

LynnD, try to have fun with Ritchie. Sorry you are having back pain.

IBB, sending good thoughts out for your friend.

Waving to Birdee, Goldie, Sandie, too and all who land later.

Just_Lin said...

Tina Congrats to Pretty Eunice on #1 and 69 today. I hope she gets a shamrock for a hat next month. Maybe if you put in a request.... :)

Carol Thank you for the lovely blog today. I am not liking my current season but bettr days will come eventually. Oh, and I'm so glad you caught your mom and didn't let her fly away. :)

Just_Lin said...

LynnD I'm so sorry about your neck. Very careful (((HUGS))).

Lani said...

GOOD MORNING - I didn't write yesterday as I was feeling very yucky, but today I feel pretty good. Vig wondered if Senor Amoeba stopped here on his way back to Mexico and made me feel sick. He did stop in Pacifica, but he was caught and escorted back to Mexico.

CAROL, Your post this morning is perfect. My sentiments exactly. I am very grateful for everyone and enjoy everybody's company.

Just_Lin said...

Mary Best wishes to Lena.

Tinka It sounds like you have a wonderful weekend planned. Enjoy!

goldie said...

OMG Hooters, I have to share. I am still laughing and I think I peed my pants a little!

I had a client on the phone. She was going on and on, I was trying to get her to understand what she says she didn't understand.

So the conversation proceeds with me saying "Listen to what I....." and she interupts and say 'WHAT DID YOU CALL ME??"

I'm confused, I didn't call her anything, I was trying to get her to shut up and listen.

"Did you just call me a TWAT?"

Huh? OMG- I burst out laughing. I was laughing so hard she hung up on me. After I regained my composure and before she could file a complaint, I called her back. I told her I said " Listen TO WHAT" not TWAT". Then we both started laughing.

Ok, my day is complete now. I have had a belly laugh and so has someone else. :)

Tina~in_ut said...

Just_Lin said...

Hi Slani! I'm glad you're feeling better today. I hope you are up for spaghetti later. :)

Just_Lin said...

Goldie Twat did you call her? LMAO!

whabbear said...

ROFLAMAO@Goldie and Just Lin!

That reminded me of National Lampoon magazine back in the seventies. They did an insert that was a dirty version of TV Guide, with all the names of the shows being tweaked and little fictitious write-ups of outrageous plot lines for that week's episode.

I remember "I Dream of Jeannie" became "I Cream on Jeannie", and Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) became, of course, TWAT.

The whole thing made me laugh then, and still does now!

whabbear said...

I remember commenting on the Committee to Unleash National Transformation over on the Rossblog, and nobody took me to task for posting filth!

kahonugrl said...

Bear:

Cause they all know you would outwit them with your comebacks to anything they could post!!!

Morning Hooters

Tina~in_ut said...

whabby...i've never heard of that committee...what do they do?

iteach said...

Carol I just love the picture you picked today for your great blog.

I so love that time period and the innocence of that era.

iteach said...

Lynn D., I hope your neck feels better. I'm glad your grandson likes the swing. My first did, but the other two had no use for it.

kahonugrl said...

WOW EBJ....

What staying power you have!

East Bay J said...

Hey!

I was reading the blog from work earlier and thought I could sneak in and get 69!

Another awesome march today to the magical number by Kgirl! Woohoo!

Goldie I almost fell off my chair at work when I read your TWAT story. That was soooo funny!

I had a very busy day so did not get to comment on today's blog. It was very touching Carol and so heartfelt. I love it! Thank you!

Gotta go get a nice hot shower and get ready for the SURVIVOR premiere!!! Yipee!!

Survivor is MR. EBJs favorite, so tonight I won't hear swearing and carrying on from him, like I do when we (or I should say I) watch the Bachelor!!

{{{hugs}}} to all!

Dianne/Denver said...

Hi Hooters!! Hope everyone is relaxing for the night.

TINA: I just wanted you to know that I was UP at 7:30AM and on the road to my grandson's singing show at 8:15...I even have a witness...right, ZONA? AND, I just got home at 6Pm from the whole day...you know breakfast with kids, lunch with friend (soup only and yes, all over my shirt)grocery store, errands, etc. At least I don't have to cook tonight (cooked the last two nights). All this is quite shocking news to some of you about myself.

K-GIRL: I am sorry about the pay cut. Everything is just so down right now. We would like to go somewhere but I am afraid to spend any money. Are you having your hours cut or salary and still working the same amount of time? I need to talk to you sometime soon about those boosts you receive.

ZONA: What in the heck are you talking about to TINA regarding us and Venus behind the mountains when I was visiting? I think you are starting to inhale too!

LYNN: I hope your neck starts feeling better soon. I am sorry you aren't feeling tip top. I hope your SIL gets better soon too.

CAROL: I just watched the video from yesterday. It was so fun to hear you talking and the little pop ups on the video. You are quite techy, aren't you? I also love the blog and picture today. Sunflowers are my very favorite flower!

LL/NN: Your quote of the day is so funny and perfect too! Good choice, JUSTLIN...(also hope today is a better day for you to0).

MO: Funny you should mention it but I bought some benedryl today and was reading the directions and the first thing it says is "don't give to children to put them to sleep."

GOLDIE: I sure am glad the "boss" didn't fire you today. That conversation is so funny...glad the lady found humor in herself.

TINK: Have a wonderful weekend. How fun to go away with your family. Hope you have perfect weather.

Sorry this is so long....I am recording Survivor until MrD comes home. I am all caught up on AI and Bachelor. Any comments on who was sent home Monday night? I was surprised but glad. I like all three of the girls left. I hope this relationship works out for Jason for once. AI..I was surprised on a few of the people they kept. That one girl (don't know how to spell her name) but I hope she gets voted off fast..she is already driving me crazy and I don't like the head-band guy either,.

Dianne/Denver said...

I didn't mean to talk so much and clear the nest out...I won't be so vocal if someone would come back...

Tina~in_ut said...

Di honey~ Up at 5:30am....work by 7am...left late at 5:40pm....parent teacher conferences from 6pm to 7pm (talk about stress!!!) dropped daughter off at friends house, came back to school to pick up son and friend, finally got to eat dinner at 8:30pm on my way home, and home at 9pm to find hubby home from Phoenix~ There....beat that! :)~

Tina~in_ut said...

oh...and Mo....please don't try to get kgrl to suck the big one....cuz she won't~ ijs~ :O

Dianne/Denver said...

TINA: Boy, you have done quite the day...and that is why you are only 43!! Now, go to sleep early tonight....like now!

night.owls.sb said...

Tina,
No, turtle won't but I will

:O)

night.owls.sb said...

And with my last comment, I am heading off to bed...

I did not read the latter comments today but I will catch up tomorrow..

Hope all has a good day!

:O)

MEK in AZ said...

I just wanted to pop in and say goodnite!!

I hope everyone has an excellent Friday the 13th!!

:-)

bonachichi said...

Hello, Owl's Nest. Someone new here. Usernames and passwords. WONDERFUL. Can I play here? I was "there" and it's attracting lots of crap. Then I checked you all out and actually saw some intelligent posts. Whab knows of me and (hopefully) will tell you I'm not completely horrible. Can I call this blog "home" now?

Shirley(NCC-1701) said...

Morning everyone.

Welcome Bonacci.

I'm off to work on Friday the 13th. I hope it goes well. Have a good day.

RonnieGirl said...

Good morning,

Welcome to the nest, Bonacci.

Shirley~hope you have a very good day on this Friday the 13th.

See everyone tonight...
