  Without You

  i dreamed, once again, you were at my side talking, laughing, loving.

  the sun warmed my face and you my heart as we lived a life forever.. i awoke with a start that left behind the land of our past, viewing my today for the misery and sadness that, truly, it is and ever shall be.. is it better to live in the land of dreams with the one i love or to exist alone and awake, recalling the dark intent that poisoned your heart?.

  Yes, Nancy, in one of those moods.

  You are, on the one hand, light and breezy -- hilarious -- in your little poems; on the other hand, like now, you are profound, offering good, useful advice.

  I like your point of enjoying the moment of fantasy -- like sipping a glass of wine on the beach -- but then our having to move on back into the real. A friend, with whom I haven't spoken in 50 years, reappeared, and she is like you in her sensible but sensitive approach to life and the people who inhabit it.

  Blessings and peace, Nancy dear.

  On various fronts there has been much discussion on the children of Jehovah's Witnesses being pushed into premature baptism. The statement that The Society prepared for The European Commission on Human Rights, however, is quite revealing. Aware of the WT's differing stance on issues - from Malawi to Mexico, from Europe to the USA - you don't require a full-blown explanation as to the whys and wherefores. Please note the following statement from the WT, particularly the emphasized text:

  "As regards the ALLEGED involvement of children, the applicant association [WTS] submits that children CANNOT BECOME MEMBERS of the association but only participate [. . .]

  There was a WT publications photo in the recent past of JWs frolicking at the beach. I recall that everyone was wearing pants (trousers) and shirts. No tanktops, no shorts. They must have been heeding the warning signs on Australian beaches . . .

  Or have been extremely sensitive and obedient to GB directives.

  Thank you, Millie, LV101 and Hortensia, for your welcome replies!

  Glad you liked the canine thread. I didn't seek out the job, but it all fell into my lap a few years ago when a client asked me to watch her 2 dogs while family was on a 2-week vacation. She gave my name to friends and they, in turn, gave my name to friends . . .

  I wish I were more patient, however, as they can be different with me than when Mom and Dad are home. Jezebel keeps getting herself locked in the guest bedroom. Before I was aware of this propensity of hers, I would search the house (it's huge) and the neighborhood. I still can't figure it out. She was "missing" this morning and I was, once again, searching for her.

  On another occasion, Brother Max rushed clumsily into the house after going outdoors to potty and hit the foyer entry table with considerable force, knocking over a vase. Glass everywhere. Jezebel goes for the glass, picks it up and then deposits it around the living room on the carpet. You can't make this stuff up.

  There's more, but I'm weary in the head.

  The potato salad ended up becoming fried taters -- not so bad a redo!

  Many thanks!

  So true, stillin, it never ends.

  I'm fussier for clients than I am for myself (well, they pay me!).

  i'm not what you would call a dog person.

  of course, it's true that, next to the television's remote control, dog is man's best friend.

  perhaps my justified ambivalence toward poochicus biteyourbuttabit is due to too many an untoward encounter with the snarling, hydrophobic malevolence of a fido, a rover, a rin tin tin, intent on my evisceration.

  Welcome back, panhandlegirl!

  I'm sorry for your loss -- it is devastating. In the many years I've cared for pets, we've lost several: mine and those of clients. We appreciate that you shared your own story, and if you ever have more to say on the subject, this is the thread!

  Best wishes to you and yours. Good luck with your future training!!!
