Good Morning myLotters

Hi ladies. I hope you have had a great day. I will start sharing stories next week. Gus has some that he said he doesn't mind me sharing. We couldn't really talk today as he had appointments. But Monday the yard work starts and he said that is also story telling time.

I would love to hear his stories to.

I hope you get a good nights sleep and will be ready to go when you wake up. I am home from work and now I get some time to be on the computer.

I hope you get a good nights sleep Bhebelen and I hope you will be able to work at home after your laptop is fixed Velvet. Best of luck.

I must say, young lady, you stopped me in my tracks with your kind words. I have tears in my eyes, good tears, from what you have said. I too, wish I had recorded my mom's and both grandparents life. All I can do is write down what I remember. I have always dealt with the elderly and love them so much. Years ago I had the pleasure of taping conversations with two elderly ladies. I have their life on tape. It is there and the family knows it if they ever want it. Start writing your life down so you will have it to pass on. Don't wait for others to ask for it.

YOUNG lady? Your point score just sky rocketed! I'm not young anymore sweets but I do appreciate your sentiments! Now I've got to ask you, how did you get involved with the older folks? I'm more of a homebody.... to be honest, the shy type because I'm legally deaf so I don't get out much but would LOVE LOVE to visit the older folks and just sit and talk with them if nothing else. Someone told me to go to an nursing home but those places are so depressing but there again, those people need us too, I know but it's hard. ARG! About my life story, I started to write a journal and maybe later a book of my life but I stopped when my husband went to Korea for a year and I had EVERYTHING to do myself and then a friend hurt me very deeply so I went into a horrible depression and just never got back into doing it. Since then we've moved from Texas to Arkansas and then to where we are now which is North Carolina so it's been 14 years since I've wrote anything in my journal. I should pick it back up and get started on my book but then I got to thinking, If I write this book, it's going to have a lot and I do mean a lot of not so good stuff in it but it would be truthful but hurtful things in it that could get me into a lot of trouble with my family so, should I shouldn't I should I shouldn't I? I don't know. I think it would be a great healing experience for me but at the same time, I'm not into hurting someone else while in the process. Oh damn these catch 22's! But it is and would be about MY life and the truth's that no one knew but should I tell....

Hi, my friend. He is letting me but wants to wait and tell me some that are the best, as he puts it. You should write some about your Granny. I would love to read them.

Thanks, T Lilly12. Things sure changed for today but that is ok. It has been a good day. I think the world of Gus and look forward to the days I spend helping him. i hope that you had a great day.

Hi, sorry I am so slow in responding. It has been a busy morning here. I think I have the laptop issues under control now. I hope to be here this afternoon and get some viewing done. Have a great one.

It is amazing at the stories we hear. The 82 year old lady that I help out is always telling me stories also. To look at her you would never think she had done some of those things, I love it! I have a pretty good memory when it comes to stories I have been told. They are so fun.

I feel for you. Our hot weather will be here soon. I am not looking forward to that at all. At least I will be moving before it gets real hot. Try to stay cool.

The stories will start next week. I am sure there are some elderly people around you that would live to share their life with you. Just check around. It is hard when they pass on but you will have those wonderful memories. I'm glad this thing is working too. I dont like when it gives me trouble. Take care and smile.

They can be a pain at times. I love listening to people telling about their life, especially the elderlies. They lived a life that I don't even know about. I have done this before and was able to record some of them. I have their life if their family wants it.

Hi, the stories will start next week. I am excited about being able to post them. I love listening to people talk and tell me about their life.

Good morning, Kathy. I think that would be neat if you shared some stories about your great Aunt. I am sure there are lots that took place in her life. Yes, these crazy laptops can be a pain at times. My son has a desk top and he doesn't seem to have much prob;ems with it. Have a great day.

Hi, it does make a huge difference when these things goes down. The day didn't turn out too bad. Today I have had many interruptions and that has put me behind also. I hope you are having a good day.

Hi, edsss17. I hope you are having a good day. I hope to be here a lot today.
