Life Through the Eyes of my Scattered Brian

I am ashamed of my city.  Two months ago we were all coming together after the  tornado's, we came together on 2010 with the floods and  at other times.... tonight ~ Saturday night~ protest in the  streets of Nashville.  (pic from TV) I am sorry for the family of George Floyd. Sorry for the events that took his life. But one wrong  should not follow another wrong.  Protest are fine. Burning buildings to looting, chanting at police  and destroying things around  Nashville.  Sorry folks but this is not about the death of George Floyd anymore, this is about a bunch of trouble makers and thugs acting out, showing their true self and just looking for an excuse to act out.  A statue at the capitol that was installed in 1924. (Pic from tv) Light post broken down.  Our historical court house spray painted, windows broken, and offices set on fire.  Moved...

written May 24, 2020 post later Morning.... I was reading blogs on Sunday morning and Sandra at  https://snapperone.blogspot.com/ was talking about a brush that is supposed to be for  short hair and to  help with hair falling  out....well that gave me  a thought for a post!! Of course it did..... What I took from her post were a couple of things but main, how do you believe in ads, sales clerks....etc. Well, you just have to try things out unless you have  someone that has tried it and thinks it works great. A few yrs ago my niece that sells Young Living oil said Rosemary in your shampoo helps to waken up the hair follicles. It seemed to work but lately it don't seem to be doing the trick. I know that things like meds and  stress can alter what is working to not working....so I asked my hair dresser Ms. Kelley! She told me amino acid. I read up on them and did find that th...

written May 24, 2002 to post later Do you know how hard it is to organize rooms  from a recent move when you keep getting side tracked by keepsakes? OH MY GOSH.... I spend more time stopping and looking at things.  The order day I was in the  den/craft room trying to  go through boxes and  decide what room they need to go in. Then I ran  across this stuff. A plastic container of KEEPSAKES... I made the stitchery  pic for Amber's new  born pic to fit in. And that is Cory's first born pic. This is the outfit Amber came home from the hospital in. I worked with a lady in  printing from the time I  was 18 till she past, I was probably 24 then. She asked what I wanted for my babe and  I told her something to bring her home from the hosp in. She said, "HER". Yes, I was convinced that I was having a girl. So she bought this outfit. Amber was bor...

Written May 24th, Sunday. To post later. I am a paper calendar sort of person. I have yet to  start using the one on my phone.  Since I carry it around with me I usually just grab on at the end of the yr for the upcoming yr....one buck at the dollar store. However when I got boozed Saturday from the Sisterhood of Traveling Spirits I got the  one below. It does not start till July, its a book like with a cardboard cover...I will start using it in July. I love it.  I keep appointments,  venue/wedding shoots and/or assisting dates,  and some other info I tend to want to keep up with written down  on my calendar.  Pam

I am a  member in this  group!!! And I got boozed Saturday.! When I sent a message to my  daughter in law she wanted to know HOW MUCH I WAS BOOZED!! I told her a sip and that if for some reason I went over that I would put this glitter mask on and  send her a pic!1 For the fun of it I need to do that.. WINE used to be my drink of choice but over the years I pulled away from it cause sulfite in it cause the asthma to flare from  time to time. Just had a glass and did fine.  I have BOOZED two people so far and have two baskets ready to go. Oh my gosh the house looks great in pics. Went on the market Sat. morn... showed Sat morning and the  couple seemed interested.  Course not sure what else they were showed and not  heard anything else this afternoon. The other day I actually put this little babe together. An...

Today, well not today if you are reading this today but today the day I wrote this... haha...did you follow all that! Sally over at  http://whispering-hope.blogspot.com/ comment on my love for memorable things. She said she loved that I loved those things. Oh Sally, that also could be an issue. It means I  hold onto things that are handed down to me but then the memories I tend to make with things, I  also hold onto them!! LOTS of STUFF! Debby  at  https://skyesofblue.blogspot.com/ says that she knows I must be happy with my daughter  taking up some crafting. YES....but I know her, it  will not last. She has never  been crafty or creative but maybe, just maybe that is on the way to changing. My friend Sheri  over at redrosealley.blogspot.com said that Hummingbirds have a special meaning to her. I just love them. Have always loved them. I have spotted one twice in th...

Yesterday while the repairman was working on the dryer....the one casualty of the move, the boys and I walked up the street. I collect pics of mailboxes and the way folks show their personalities. This one, somehow that I never noticed at the top of my street. Took this is James and Julies yard Wed when the boys and  I went there for pics. FINALLY....after years of buying frozen pizza or buying cooked ones here and  there I found one I LOVE. Course I don't just pop it in  the oven, I add to it. Green olives, banana peppers, pepper jack cheese, salt and  pepper flakes, onion and garlic. It was amazing! Leaving my brothers home on  Wed. evening I saw this site. It had been rainy off and on all day....BEAUTIFUL... thank you for always leaving such sweet comments... Pam
