When I was a little boy, (when I was just a boy)
And the devil would call my name (when I was just a boy)
I'd say "now who do,
Who do you think you're fooling? " (when I was just a boy)
I'm a consecrated boy (when I was just a boy)
I'm a singer in a sunday choir
Oh , my mama loves, she loves me
She get down on her knees and hug me
Like she loves me like a rock
She rocks me like the rock of ages
And loves me
She love me, love me, love me, love me

Good morning, everyone! Difficult morning... not a wink of sleep last night. Gotta make up for it today. I had a back molar pulled yesterday afternoon, and while the extraction itself was just about painless (in fact, the stitches hurt more than the pulling!) for some reason it was 'buzzing' all night long. Not hurting... buzzing. Really weird. But I discovered this morning that if I sit up, the buzzing stops. So it will be 'sleep in the chair' day today!

First some food... Luke-warm green tea and congee with egg. Not my favorite way to start a day...

This sounds pretty good! Anything with juniper just has to be good!

Yes, it CAN! It can both emotionally and psychologically addictive for many people, especially war veterans, and children of war veterans. Many compulsive blood donors do so out of 'survivor guilt.' Most health organizations prohibit donations within specified time limits. I know several people who have never missed a donation right on the day of their limit for the past 40-45 years! That is a LOT of blood donated and a lot of lives helped!

Donation is a wonderful gift of life, but stay within safe time margins. It's a great thing you are doing... unless you are doing it just for the free orange juice afterwards.

I'm partially surprised that the time limits are different for countries. They require a 3-month period here, so I get to donate one litre annually. So far, I feel fine. Never fainted.

(How do you know! I secretly love the cupcakes and juice and tea. And then the donors can choose their souvenirs - stuffed animals, clocks, pencil box, etc. That's my favorite part )

Er no, I too dislike using guns for real. But still, I'd like to know how. A short course (2 years ago) wasn't enough - I already forgot everything about taking a gun apart and then reassemble it.

(I just rechecked it. That is only a draft and hasn't been brought up to the Congress yet. Anyway, I'll be 23 when I graduate... no chance at handling real guns.)

How do I know? I thought I told you... I use my God-give psychic powers. Everybody has 'em. Most folks just don't believe they have 'em so they ignore them! I don't. I know I have 'em and I use them all the time!

It's that wonderful 'potential' for fullness that makes life so rich!

A large Bombay Sapphire (with some tonic) after a day looking after the grandies (2 & 4), add that to a 15 wk old puppy and it spells exhaustion for this OAP.
