Check in from time to time...

I have tried this in a couple groups and thought it would be nice here.  There are some of us that are regulars here, and it would be nice to hear from you, and how you are from time to time.  Just something short (or long) to let us know how you are doing.

Fun idea Jan.
hey all, Michael here ...
happy, healthy and lovin' life.
the Gkids getting bigger and smarter and more personable.

recently (past two weeks) had some unexpected deaths to deal with;
a cousin 2 months younger than Me and
a PopPop, or as the Gkids called Him ~ PopPopPop.

I Live in South Jersey and caught some of that
crazy NorEaster over the weekend.
on that note I'd like to report something peculiar ~
the woods behind my house have an inordinate number
of downed trees, some snapped dead center, AND
the creek is running toward the Red River.
It has always streamed away.
Kooky huh?

that's all for me for now ...
how's by You?

I was going to go to the senior luncheon at the church tomorrow, but the kids get out early from school, so I won't be able to go. :( But the Bible study on Thursday is having a potluck. Whether I will be able ot eat anything is open to question, since I am on a low-sodium diet.

Hello, I am irregular (heh,heh) Seriously, I come and go when I have the time and wander here and there gathering mostly tremendous things, although sometimes I find a weed or two that may have come in on my shoes. I my mad, mindless journey I find that I am fine, almost deliriously happy at times. Today, I am a bit more stable as I work the worm that gathers in my mind and draw new words on a line.

I'm sorry Michael, its rough when there is a death in the family, my brother lost his 2 kids (44 & 42, boy and girl) within a year of each other. He has been thru so much in he past few years.
I'm doing fine, keeping busy, and I feel guilty at times that I don't spend as much time on some groups as I would like to.
I'm trying to write a couple poems, but can't seem to find the right words to finish them.

[Michael J Masiko]

this would be when grandmom use to say:
"howyacallit".
to which we would
obligingly
fill in the _______.
aka. 'can't wait to read forthcoming poems'
happy writing.

hah, just thought of another G'mom gem ~
She would always say:
"Ya gotta keep moving".
and only now am I seeing the merit of Her words.

Thanks Michael, I will post them as soon as they are done.
