Saturday, July 11, 2009. Thought for the day:. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of anything. 8230;……………………………………………………. This has been a busy week. Strange, too, because Grandma’s calendar didn’t have much of anything marked on it so we thought we’d have the whole week to kind of lay back and relax. Ha! That pretty well shot Monday and Tuesday; but wait! Labels: A Day In The Life Of. July 11, 2009 at 6:13 PM. July 11, 2009 at 10:45 PM.

Grandpa Ralph's Corner: August 2009
http://grandparalphscorner.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 17, 2009. Thought for the day:. Today is the day to make memories. Being a teenager in the 1940s was considerably different than being one in today's society. Although there were none of the $100 per pair sneakers, i-pods, cell phones etc., there. How hard could it be? Sounded like my kind of job- just sit in the shade and pick up pieces of fruit; and for that I'd get 12 cents a lug. What a deal! Bend over, pick them up,. Put them in a large hug. Neither did I, but I soon learned. Afte...

Sunday, June 21, 2009. Thought for the day:. Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become. 8230;…………………………………………………. These, I believe, are some of the qualities that shape the man, that separate the winners from the also-rans. These are the qualities that defined and sustained Emmett’s life for more than 97 years. Happy Father’s Day, Dad! Labels: Fathers Day 2009. June 21, 2009 at 9:43 PM. I love you, Dad. June 21, 2009 at 10:35 PM.

Stuff About Things: June 2009
http://maui1984.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2009. A Day in the Life. I have found that when I tell people about my job, they usually react with some version of, "Wow, that must be a fun job. You get to play with animals all day! Drag myself into work with coffee in hand. Treat any patients that are hospitalized from the night before. (Weigh, temp, give meds, feed, etc.). Start the inventory ordering for the week. Get sidetracked at least 3 times on the way to the computer. Grab a syringe from the drawer to draw up the vaccine.

Stuff About Things: Weekend in SF
http://maui1984.blogspot.com/2009/05/sf-trip.html
Saturday, May 16, 2009. A couple weekends ago, Chelsea and I went on a little trip to San Francisco. It was a nice, relaxing, and very rainy weekend. It was really great to spend time just the two of us. It sounds strange considering we live together, but the truth is we actually don't see each other much with our busy schedules. Then, we stayed for the Giants game. Well, most of it anyway. We left when they were behind 5-0 and it started raining. May 16, 2009 at 10:36 PM. I'm glad to find out that I'm n...

Sunday, May 31, 2009. I am home. :). This is a more detailed look at my first few days here, which I sent out in an email). Today's the day we are supposed to head to the slums for about 4 hours. So far I've met 3 sets of kids, beautiful kids! The second set was the street kids that attend Calvary Chapel-Kampala (yes, Charlie- I'm going to a Calvary Chapel almost every weekend this month! She also told me of some of the heartbreaking stories of the boys who ran away because their addiction was so strong.

Grandpa Ralph's Corner: Post #46 -- People Watching
http://grandparalphscorner.blogspot.com/2009/10/post-46-people-watching.html
Tuesday, October 13, 2009. Post #46 - People Watching. Thought for the day:. By the time you decide to look for greener pastures, you’re too old to climb the fence. 8230;……………………………………………………. I know it must sound like Grandma and I spend a lot of time in fast food places; we don’t—well, not a. Of time—but when we are there we usually take advantage of the opportunity to “people watch,” and fast food places and the mall are ideal spots for this activity.

Boomsticker's Cave of Solitude: Didja know?
http://boomsticker.blogspot.com/2014/07/didja-know.html
Tuesday, July 8, 2014. I have received a request or two that some of my readers want to know as much as I think I do about miscellaneous trivial subjects. Okay - be careful what you ask for though. Until I figure out the best to do this I will simply list my marvelous accumulation of interesting tidbits of knowledge like this:. Do you know why some base runners in baseball will grab a pair of batting gloves out of their back pocket and not put them on? July 19, 2014 at 7:18 AM. Word cards for reading help.
