Where was the Donald when Melania was planting the commemorative tree?

In my... years on this earth, I have learned that when we are called to go home, we will go. We have one life to live. The material things we invest in are left behind. Memories, therefore, are important to me.

So, I'm going to start a "reunion of friends". The idea is to see who reads a post without a picture. If no one reads my post, this will be a very short experiment. But if you are reading this message, make a comment using a single word about how we met. After that COPY this message on your wall and I will also leave you a word.

Please, don't leave a word and then not bother doing the second thing. Let’s go! My friends

We must not forget being devalued as women for centuries!
Embrace your right to vote!
Embrace your responsibility for future generations!

Lyndon Johnson’s youthful experience teaching at a tiny school near the U.S.-Mexico border inspired his efforts as president to educate young and disadvantaged school children.

“As a son of a tenant farmer, I know that education is the only valid passport from poverty,” Johnson remarked at an education bill signing ceremony.

Kate Deadrich Loney, who taught Johnson in a one-room schoolhouse, came to the signing.

This is frightening to even imagine! 😢

Take this serious.

THIS!!!!!!! READ THIS!

A guy sends you a friend request. He looks nice enough, so you check him out on FB before accepting. Awe, he’s got a wife and just the Cutest Kids. You don't know him; but, he's a Family Man and his profile and info is all good; so you accept his friend request.

It's your baby girl's first day of school. She looks SO cute in her new outfit and you just have to take a picture and post it on Facebook so all your friends and family can see.

You're so excited dropping her off that you 'Check in' to her school on FB saying...”I can't believe how big she's gotten. Time sure flies. One proud momma/daddy right here.”

Meanwhile, the mystery guy whose friend request you hurriedly accepted previously, is saving that photo you posted of your daughter in her cute new outfit, to his phone and texting it to 60 other grown men across the world with the caption - American Female, Age 8,
Brown Hair, Blue Eyes, ID # R8000.

Not only did you provide a picture of your little girl to a child trafficker, you've handed him the name and exact location of her school on a silver cyber platter.

You go to pick her up at 3:00 this afternoon; but, she's nowhere to be found.

Little do you know, your precious baby girl was sold to a 43 year old pe*****le before you even stepped foot off campus this morning; and, now she's on her way to Asia with a bag over her head, confused, terrified and crying.
A strange man she's never seen before, snatched her up from school in less than 10 seconds. She doesn't know where her parents are, where she's going, or what's going to happen next, it’s hard for her to breathe and she’s all alone and terrified!!!!! And, YOU did this to her, unknowingly...
But, now you know 😳

STOP ADDING STRANGERS ON FACEBOOK!!!
A N D
STOP posting everything about your Life and Kids on FACEBOOK!!!

Avoid posting children's photos, or on profiles! Change your Hometown! Don’t post Towns or Locations! People who know you, know where you live!

Please share this for the sake of all kids and parents!!!

PLEASE SAVE OUR CHILDREN

Please COPY - PASTE

Happy Doggy Day to my fantastic Bichon rescue dog. She was born with only one ear flap so was rejected by a puppy mill in Ohio. In memory of Vincent, I named her Vincenza Van Gogh, but her nickname is Vinnie. She has been a wonderful, adorable and tolerant companion for 15 years. Most days she still thinks she is a puppy. Other days her naps blend from one into another.
Although she is my constant companion, she goes crazy happy when my grandchildren come to play with her 💗

My favorite author, since I read “Watchers” many years ago is . He not only embraces the importance of the first words in each novel, but also the last and everything in between.
It reminds me of the genius of Charles Dickens in his novel “A Tale of Two Cities”. He immediately caught our grade school attention on the first page with the words “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…” and ends with “It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done…”

Koontz’s prose may not rise to that level, but it is the closest thing to poetry…soothing, stimulating, scary, smart and memorable. I have attached a sample from his latest book that I am reading.
Trust me. If you love a skilled wordsmith (and golden retrievers) you will love his books, too.
