Coffee?

They say there's a link to vision loss in drinking coffee.  Here is a medical research that has come many years too late for us "baby boomers".  I've been drinking coffee most of my life, starting with childhood.  This was the "wake me up" my grandmother used to get me going in the mornings.  I always had a cup of hot coffee when getting up and getting ready for school.  It helped get me motivated and pulled the cobwebs out of my brain.
As an adult it's been my companion most every morning to do the same thing.  Waking up is not my specialty, since I am not a big morning person.  I sit around for several hours in a daze, until finally something peaks my interest enough to get me going.  Coffee, is the only thing that has helped in all these years.  Now, they say it's linked to my eyes becoming blurred from cataracts or other problems.  I can't win, because since you can't get out of this world alive, what are they trying to do?  Take all the fun and enjoyment out of life?  Boo to you scientists.

Cold

It finally made it to Texas.  Yes, the cold front that was up in the central part of the states, finally made it down here.  It's cold and now I find that digging out the sweaters, jeans and socks very important.  Oh, don't forget the blankets either.  Yes, the dog days of summer have gone and now we must get ready for the winter months and all they bring.  The new caster said that the temperatures we are experiencing would actually be relevant to those we have in January.  This morning I got up to lower 50's and believe me I found my warm house coat and shoes real quick.

Scrubs

You find most health care personnel wearing coordinated apparel when working.  The nurse's who work on certain floors of a hospital, will have a color to designate their location positions.  It's only natural to see the  baby phat scrub tops  in a children's hospital unit.  I noticed that these scrub tops are made for comfort, flexibility and convenience.  To get information about these scrub tops, click on the link in this post.

3 Andy's

In 2012 America lost 3 Andy's and they were prominent popular personalities.  Andy Rooney, was a very well known CBS newscaster, Andy Griffith a great wholesome television personality and now Andy Williams who crooned his way to stardom singing "Moon River".
It's not the only great people we have lost this year, but these all had the name of Andy, our heartfelt condolences go out to all family, friends and coworkers involved in their lives.

Military

I am the mother of 5 children and only one made it through highschool, went to college and entered the military.  Not a very good track record for me at all.  The other 4 children never finished highschool and that's too bad.  Now they see the error of their ways, but what can you say to them?  I told you so?  It's just too bad that kids don't have the sense to listen to their parents instead of their piers.

Church

I've seen the inside of many churches in my life time.  You wouldn't know it from the way I act these days.  Actually, I was there weekly on regular service days for most of my childhood.  You get accustomed to the furniture and that dreaded altar.  Today, you can find nicer pews because of the world updating things.  When the clergy shop for Church furniture  I suppose they try and include comfort in their agenda?  As a child, I found those pews to get rather hard after and hour of sitting on them.

Cowboy's

The Dallas Cowboy's have gotten off to a rough start this season.  I'm not a sports person, so I can't really put out any ideal information to you about how they are performing.  I just watch to games and cheer for them when their doing well.  I get let down and sad when they loose.  It's part of the Texas pride that does this to me.  I'm not alone in having this pride, and most Texas want the Cowboy's to do well.  So, we can only hope that they will pick up the stamina and do what's needed to win the rest of their season games.  Looking toward the Super Bowl is a possibility, this year.

Hearing

 My step-dad and my mom got hearing aides when they went into the nursing home.  He wears his, but she won't even consider putting it on.  There's always some excuse for what she does or doesn't do.  I'm not sure where their hearing aides came from but I know that you can get plenty of good information, at  HearingAidsElite.com hearing aid  specialists.  They can tell you what is best for your prescription.

Photos of Kate

Looking at the proper and improper way of doing things is a way of life with the royal couple.  They are young and wish to have some sort of private life, I'm sure.  You wonder how this will ever happen considering the nature of their famous lives?  Kate and William are royal subjects and expected to carry on as such.  The Queen can assume that proper training has been accomplished for the youngsters, but you know how kids can be. 
I hope that the royal pair can be given a small part of their lives to enjoy while they are still young.  The news media needs to let them live to be old like the Queen.  One day it may be that William will be King and that would be a nice thing.

America?

 Wild Bill sure tells it like it is and we are in actuality doing the very thing he is talking about.  How can we be so stupid?

That Video

I must say the one thing that irks anyone is when they see something on video or film that doesn't sit right with their ideas or beliefs.  I don't think riots or uprisings are the answer to finding something offensive.  The other world cultures are somewhat different to ours and I can see where they would use this as a means to start riots and eventually possible war.
I watched what the internet has offered as the video in question.  Yes, it is offensive to me and I would consider it vulgar as well.  When you consider all the "R" rated movies and films which our world has spawned, then this small clip of a video is mediocre in comparison.  I can't see killing, burning and doing such violence as being recompense for this video.  Once again, I will admit that I am an American, and only one pebble of sand on the beach.  Holding a whole nation accountable for one person's actions isn't feasible.  Yet, this is exactly what we are seeing.  I am so glad that I wasn't born or raised in that culture.  How do they have any peace?

America Attacked Again

It just seems to keep coming no matter how we try to offset this stuff.  How often do we attempt to help these people and give aide to them when they are in the middle of disasters?  It astounds me to think of the money spent to buy crude oil from these countries which I consider very overpriced.  When things like the recent attacks happen, it's from extremists who are out to keep their world in turmoil.  In the process of trying to prove something isn't right they cause even more wrongs by doing their destruction.  I have yet to understand they cultures from these countries as a way of life?  It's not for me to say or understand, but I sure am glad that I live in America. 

Go Cowboy's

Yes, is all I can say, when it comes to showing my appreciation for last night's game.  Dallas went to New York and gave the Giants a game that was needed.  Many were betting against the Cowboy's considering the scenario and I believe they though the Giant's would whoop some ass.  Well, the Cowboy's had a thirst and went in with vigor and zest.  The 24 to 17 final score was something to behold by all us Cowboy's fans.  I sat through the whole games with my fingers crossed silently praying they wouldn't give it up in the 4th quarter, as many times before.  It was a good game, but they still need to improve their defensive and offensive lines.  Romo had to work hard last night and I'm sure Manning do as well.  A good start to what we hope is a good season.  Go Cowboy's.

Shark...

Oh my, did you see that huge shark that washed up on the beach along the Rhode Island/Massachusetts's borders?  Theu say it looks to weight in the range of 1600 pounds.  One man said it was like a huge adrenline rush just being that close to one, even though it was dead.  The beaches have been closed with signs saying "No swimming", this is a precaution should other's be in the area.  Reports of sharks have been seen in other area's of the eastern coastline.
They are going to see what the contents of this shark's stomach holds and try to get an idea of what may have happened to it.  Report has it that there are no signs of trauma.
