Tuesday SOL - 8/26/14 - Do you have ESP?

Every so often my hubby checks my ESP abilities.  His mind and my mind don't always follow in the same direction.  Take for instance this morning, we were stripping some paint and out of the blue he says, "Get a tuna can."  Now I'm standing by the pantry and think he talking about a can of tuna for lunch.  In his mind, he wants an empty tuna can from the recycle crate to put the stripper in.  ESP???

The other day he took some mints to put in his pocket, but gave me one.  I'm thinking he wants me to put it in my pocket so I don't have to ask him for it later.  In his mind, he wants me to open it because he's finished with his coffee.  ESP???

Now, I'm sure that I test his ESP abilities too, but "in my mind" he seems to be testing me more and more often.  We've been married almost 45 years and apparently after that many years, we should be able to read each others minds.


I guess that our minds are going so many different directions and we believe that others are always thinking about that same things we are.

How are your ESP abilities?  Do these get tested very often?

    Ha! Oh so true! I think we all have moments like this, and so many more when we are not on the same page! Too funny!

    I guess mothers, wives and teachers need to have it much of the time, but you're examples are funny, Judy. When we assume (esp or not), sometimes we really don't 'get' it! Have a great day with further testing!

    Love this. There are days when Kathy and I are in such sync that we can finish each others sentences. Then there are those days when she says something and I just go 'Huh?"

SOL 18/31 - The Realtor's Came Yesterday

Image
Yesterday, the realtor's came to look at our house.  Our realtor only brings his own people thru, so it wasn't too bad.  Max slept thru most of it until they went upstairs where he was sleeping.  He barked briefly, came downstairs, got petted and pampered a little.  They walked thru the house, in the bedroom, up the stairs, down the stairs, looked things over, asked a few questions and 15 minutes later out the door they went. Our realtor told me he has had a couple of calls - one from a neighbor (being nosy) and another from a realtor who said this house is exactly what his clients are looking for, but they had just left the day before it was listed.  But could they put in an offer sight unseen?  Really???  Is this just a realtor's ploy to make us feel good or is it real?  No offer yet, but who knows.  It could happen. I breathed a sigh of relief.  Max looked at me as if to say "Is that it?  Can I go back to sleep now?". ...

Tuesday SOL 10/23/12 - Mr. Pockets goes to school

Image
Last week there was an article in our local newspaper that I found fascinating and wanted to share it with you.  This is a story about a dog who listens as children read out loud.  It's a new program in our school district and I'm proud that our district is using this innovative program to help students learn. Animals are so loving, caring and accepting, and the students love to have someone that they can read to and to be loved unconditionally. I hope you enjoy the article. http://www.baxterbulletin.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/201210200500/NEWS01/310200014

Tuesday SOL - 9/25/12 - A New Beginning for a Special Couple

Image
Several weeks ago we were invited to a wedding for two very dear friends.  What a special occasion it was!  This is the second marriage for both of them and they are in their early 70's.  But, before telling you about the wedding, you need to know "the rest of the story". Jeannie's husband died about 10 years ago from heart related problems.  Several years after his death, she was involved in a terrible automobile accident and was never expected to walk again.  But through sheer determination (and the help of God) she walks without the aid of crutches.  At this point she really didn't have God in her life and I'm not sure at what point she found God (or more than likely, God found her).  She always asked God to find her that special man who had faith, was kind, had a great sense of humor and who loved her. Along came Richard.  His wife died about 5 years ago, also to heart related problems.  They "knew" each other through church, Bible ...
