In reply to Ganeida. LOL, Ganeida. I think my cows would have been Ruby and Gladys. I've never heard the word mithered, but I know dithered. :) xxoo

I like cows. I have milked a cow. Milking is soothing. I give cows names like Dolly & Parsley.

Some words should just be banned but I collect unusual words I like, like mithered.

No~one round here does well in the humility stakes. We do not suffer fools well ~ & there’s a lot of it out there. I’m sure that’s why God did it, to make sure types like us not you, us us] get taken down a peg or two. *sigh* I was born perfect. I should have stuck with a good thing! 😉

In reply to Pat.

You are such a loyal friend, Pat. Thank you. You made me laugh about saying the word snack as often as possible to your sister Pam. I think you should actually tell her you’ll be bringing a moist snack next time you see her, or that perhaps when she comes to see you, she should pack some moist snacks herself. Moist snacks…sisters know how to bless sisters, don’t they? And Emily was beautiful! I was so taken by the really tall forests… xxoo

I read this and laughed and then ended up crying (as did some of your other readers, I see). So meaningful, Julie. Regardless of 65 or 80, you’re 100% lovable! My twin sister, Pam, has the same thing about words and wouldn’t you know it she also hates the word “moist”. Another one she cannot stand is the word “snack” so of course I try to use it as much as possible when I’m around her! And I just have to say I LOVE the cow picture and I think you should find a place for it. I’m so glad you went thru my home town and thought of me. Emily will always be incredibly dear to me.

Wonderful memories to cherish Julie – and none of us is perfect! Sixty five or eighty percent sounds like you’re doing pretty good to me. Hey, over 30 years and you still love each other and still enjoy each other’s company. That’s a lot to be thankful for! Much love, Helen x

In reply to Kay in Cornwall. I can understand an aversion to the word rhubarb, Kay. I will be praying for you and your situation today. You are a dear, and are in His hands no matter what. I love you too! xxoo

Love you, Julie. Love your honesty and openness.
My son, Chris, hated the word ‘rhubarb’ when he was a child, though he quite liked eating it.
So I suppose he did, in fact, eat his words. 🙂
(Feeling better today, but still a bit sad. Would appreciate prayer. Though, after reading this post, maybe the fault I perceive in someone else, is really because of a fault in me …. I’m confused!)

Which is worse: Brainerd or Guardino?

And I think you are doing much better than 65%.

I like cows too.

That is all.
