Hearing The Lone Ranger.

Kimmo sabbe! My dad used to tell a wonderful story about the young man who played \'the storm\' in an effort to conceal the realease of his flatulence from the young lady he had just taken home. On his third \'need\' to play this piece his lady friend asked if this time would he mind missing out the passage where the lightning strikes the sh+t house! I\'m no intellectual snob but it\'s that story which comes to my mind.

I screamed with laughter - Forget William Tell - love Dan Rather..... and Tonto! My all time favorite is Roy Rogers and Happy Trails though.....

I\'m no expert on classical music, but the build-up in this reflects the temperament of (some at least) Italians, as Rossini whips it up - not forced, but a thrilling sound!
Did we ride horses like this in 1066?

It\'s a great piece of music even before it gets the \'famous bit\' - thanks for the memory.

We never know what tomorrow brings. Just remember the yesterday\'s. The time when she could recall and continue in conversation. Thanks for allowing us to be a part of your hard journey. That\'s what friends are for. I know the reason now why I call you Goldie.😓

Whilst visiting my son many moons ago i met my ex mum-in-law who conversed exactly as you describe today. For me two days of this was truly frustrating. Your love and faith is so strong yet you are only human. Your faith tells you you are created in God\'s image therefore any failings you may feel you succumb to cannot be an evil.
I wish for you strength to persevere, yet be gentle with your soul.

It\'s the letting go that\'s hard isn\'t it Andy.... and the feeling guilty if you do. It\'s such a hard process...... I\'m glad you have friends and family to talk to. There\'s nothing wrong with wanting to live.... she\'s going where things don\'t hurt her.

Sad reflection on the way (some) parents bring up their children these days. One of my grandchildren has just spent a few days with us and not once did he look at an electronic device except to look the name of a song he\'d been singing with his Dad - we had a great time and he didn\'t want to leave - he\'s 6 by the way.

One of the first things the EU did to us was to remove the right of a parent to chastise their child. Did that improve our society?
I like it when you get political. Unlike politicians Goldfinch, you use common sense.

I shan\'t tire if u play more sinatra. I have high regard for his singing and learned so much from him. Limited range and amazing phrasing.
Great piece today G. A fine tribute to those brave ladies piloting all sorts of aircraft without ammunition in wartime.

HELLO ANDY, ANGELA HERE! Its 10:30 am (FRIDAY) in Auckland and my first clinic is 2pm and an Evening One for people who have to work. BRIAN thought I would be more empathetic in respect of the situation you face 24/7 with your Beloved Wife JOYCE. When I do \"Home Visits\" for Physio & Massage I constantly meet couples One of whom has Dementia. AROMATHERAPY using essential oils (monoterpenes) can calm and relieve anxiety. The situation is a sad one as described in your excellent Poem. In their own Home I offer to pray with people especially if they are Catholics. Some of them ask me \"Are you a Nun ?\" don\'t tell Brian! It should encourage you to know that Clients who are Christians cope much better than those without any FAITH. I loved the way you sat down and reasoned it out with GOD like JOB did very very cathartic. Knowing how hard it would be for BRIAN (me going to NZ for a Year) I talked to GOD about it and His answer was You will learn so much about yourself in NZ (as nowhere else) grasp the opportunity, I have given you Ruth as a \"SISTER\" and absence will deepen the \"true love\" I have given You & Brian, which it has: AMEN Your Poem made me cry it was so from your HEART. It gives me Faith to believe BRIAN & I could cope with any situation: AMEN Love SINATRA (singing anthing ~ Brain likes DEAN MARTIN especially when he sings in Italian ~ what do you think ? Brian & I will be of-line until 31st July : Angela
Brian sends his Love & Prayers to YOU & JOYCE

Andy,
You will see...
Your faith will
get you through!
A friend of mine once told me that God was giving me as much as I could handle and not more than that! I just laughed and didn’t believe a word of it!
This happened during one of my darkest periods! I did make it...and you will too!
You are a survivor! Your faith will keep you strong! Just think...where would Joyce be without you? You are where you are for her! Stay strong! Love to you and Joyce!
