The Heart's Music Can Heal

                                       Ah The Lazy, Hazy Days Of Summer Time..

                       Journey did make a soundtrack for a Japanese film  "Dream After Dream".  I remember hearing it for the first time in 1984.  It is a very wonderful soundtrack.  I was thinking about it today as the rain was falling and how romantic it is.  You are in my thoughts and prayers always My dear Sir S. Anthony SHIZZ.  Hope everyone is ok, love you so much!

                                       Couldn't leave this song out for you Sir S Anthony Schizz,                                       I can't deny how I am feeling right now thinking about you!

        Hi My Dear Schizz, Hope you got out and enjoyed the weather today after you got home from the office.  It sue was beautiful today.  Things are finally drying out.  Thinking about you and hoping and praying that you are doing fine.  Gosh, if I ever needed your shoulder, or your arms, I would tonight, either one would be wonderful.  Just in need of your company.  I know its a long distance away, so I will have to settle for a cyber hug.  Love you Sir S Anthony Schizz with all my heart!  My love to your family as well!

                 Wanted to let you know I didn't forget about you today Sir S Anthony Schizz.  I am up late helping my daughter with her school project, although she has it pretty much under control.  This is her and her brother's last week before school is finished for the year.  Hard to believe my daughter will be 14 by Sunday and my son 16 next month.  I am so proud of them, they have done so well this year and I have you to thank for it too!   Been missing your blogs since your last one in January.  You can imagine I am worrying and thinking about you daily.  I hope and pray everyone is doing ok, Love you so much, have a good day tomorrow!

             Seems like I am all over this Blog, being silly, but I want to get back to being serious again. I think about you My Sir S Anthony Schizz from the time I get up in the morning to the time I go to sleep at night.  I got thinking about all things about you that I love.  I admit I don't have the rapier wit like you, all I know is everything about you makes me love you even more, how can one be more happier and blessed than that.    Not just how handsome you are but your smile and your personality is all I ever had dreamed about.                The Heart's Music inside of me speaks of love and appreciation for all that you are, Love you so much. My love to your family too!

            I have five nephews all together.  My brother's son since graduating in 2013 as well ,is also taking classes at Columbus State in Graphic Design...ahhh a boy after his aunts heart ( Oooops ,Already Taken).  Anyway among his talents in Art, he is in a band called  "Troubled Coast"!   He is learning how to play Bass Guitar to boot.  He has a very nice girlfriend too.  So you can guess he's pretty busy.  I see him every once in a while but most of the time I see his younger brother (Another Piano Man.)   Quite musical in this family, many of the kids play an instrument in our family.   I am proud of all of them...Can't help it!                                                     My Second Born Nephew (My brother's Oldest)

                I was first introduced to the band Alabama in 1981, when "Love In The First Degree" crossed over from the country charts to the pop charts.  They were my late husband's favorite band.  I had liked a few of their songs but I like a little of every style of music, as you may have noticed.  I favor rock, pop, jazz and easy listening.  My parents are big country music fans so I do enjoy the older artist in country music.                My son has picked up a like for Alabama as well and asked if I had any CD's of theirs.  I did but I had put it away since Jeff had died.  It was his CD I got him one year for his birthday.  I gave it to my son an he downloaded it to his play station.   He then brought The CD into the car to play while he drove the car.              "  You can listen to it if you want to mom."  It was kinda hard for me to listen to all the way through, but it was a nice way to remember him. One song on the CD caught my attention

             I know of one song that seems to fit how I feel being without Schizz ! Love You Sir Anthony S, Very Much!

        I know some may call me a square, but oh well.  I have to admit there are some Barry Manilow songs I like and others I don't.  Do you remember "I Write The Songs"?   I remember when it first came out, I wasn't too fond of it.  As a kid, I just didn't pay too much attention to words to hook the meaning together.  Over the years since I finally understood the meaning of what he was saying in the song.  The birth of music and how each one of us carries that spirit within us.  The good Lord made us that way.  The Psalms are a great example of it.  In revelation, they talk about all creation singing praises to Christ.   Music I guess is as old as time and as long as man has been here on earth.  I hate to admit it, but I like "I Write The Songs " now than I did back when I was a little girl.          Maybe I am being more intellectual..maybe or just more of a nerd....or just an old nerdy woman..whatever.  I just like to find meaning in the song more

     We always call it that, thunderstorms rumbled through last night and today, we were placed under A Tornado Watch.    The house was real warm last night,so I decided to sleep in the living room were I had the window fan going bringing in the cool night air.  It stormed, but not bad.  It was kinda relaxing in a way and I was able to fall asleep.  I still feel bummy so it was nice to just relax and fall asleep with the rain.      My daughter's track meet was cancelled due to the Severe Weather Threat today.  This is her final week as school ends for her and her brother May 23rd.  My Weather Radio was going off left and right with one or two Severe Thunderstorm Warnings, the rest were Tornado Warnings in the counties south of Delaware County.  Green county wasn't so lucky to dodge the bullet like we were.  They did have a Tornado on the ground that did some damage and by the looks of it, it had to be an EF1 or EF2.  That is plenty big enough.  It has calmed down  now.  Thank

    Growing up in the country, one of the best things was when it is a bright sunny and warm morning.  Everything has a sparkling new appearance.  The air seems to be cleaner and very fresh.   Those days were great as a kid.  It made school, at least for me something to look forward to because it would be nice when I got off the bus in the after noon .  I think the main reason was because this time of year school is nearly over and the bright beautiful mornings were one step away from summer vacation.  Just couldn't wait.     It is warm muggy again today.  I want to say that I hope and pray the sun brightens your heart and gives you encouragement. Love you Schizz.  Have a wonderful day!

                                Been such a warm day today, you would think we were in July already. Tomorrow will be a busy one, got to go back to the doctor's tomorrow morning to discuss my meds and other problems I have been having.  Not sure if its the hernia or gallbladder, I sorta got sick yesterday .  My daughter gets her award at Shanahan aroud six-thirty. Any way I hope and pray you are ok and staying well.  I will be thinking about you tomorrow considering it would have been your dad's birthday, please take care, Love you very much, love to the family too!

                                                     Hope and pray your day went well!

     Its been of those days when nothing is really wrong, its warm and rainy out but feeling kinda Blah. My daughter went to Kings Island Amusement Park in Cincinnati , Ohio with her band as an award for how well they did in contest.  Its just my son, old Murph and I here.  Hope you are doing fine and the family is ok.      I think of your smile and it makes my day.  Please take care of yourself, I know tomorrow will be a difficult one for everyone there. Love you so much!

           This is another love song I haven't heard for a very long time.  I hope one day I can share this with Schizz.  My Love Always, hope you enjoy this classic ballad from the seventies!

    One of my favorite Hymns is "The Ninety and Nine."  I believe it is beautifully written to tell of Christ' love and concern for us.  So many paintings have been done of  "The Good Shepherd."       " Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another."         Romans 12:10

                With the night being so nice in temperature and just simply beautiful, who can't think of love                                                           Love you!

              When I think about him, I think about how very special he is.  He is very talented and skillful with his hands as a caregiver and as a woodworker.  Like his mother, his smile can light up the darkest place and the most unhappy soul.    Like his father, he is a person of great strength and wisdom.  Humble and gentle in his own right, so very so in how he touches those around him.  I often wonder if he knows that he shows his heart of gold and yet maybe never gives himself credit for all the good things he does.                To me, he made life so real, I used to write about how I felt my perfect man was.  Then, I was writing something that I had no ideal would become as true as the budding trees in the springtime.  I find myself unable to write those pages as if he had written them for me.  I think we go through different phases in our lives , each one in the time they are meant to be.   As each day passes, I realize just how close he is to my heart.                I c

        Going through the day, sometimes means you watch the clock,especially if you are in a hurry or on a schedule.  Most of us are and having two teenagers who are active in school, time becomes a precious thing.  By the weeks end this past week, I was so tired.  My daughter had two of her friends over to spend time with her and all three girls decided to walk on Alum Creek.          I soon discovered what the difference was between a 47 year old woman and 13 year old girls...oh about 1/2 mile to a mile ahead.  Gosh did I feel old.  The steps up to the Dam are really exhausting.  Now, I see many athletic people go up and down those steps like nothing doing.  Me , I have to stop and catch my breath every other flight.  Out of shape, is an understatement, even though I have been losing weight, I still get winded on those steps.        The girls went up them without any problem and waited for me with the ..ho-hum expression on their faces..oh well.         Then we started walking an

    I like this poem, I just want Schizz (Sir Anthony.S) that I love him and thing about him and all his family in Amesbury.  Hope and Pray everyone is doing ok!                                                                        Keep Smiling!

                                         When I Just Need To Tell You!

                                          Love You Very Much!
