  1. Tavi, the only one I can remember right now is in the last verse of a poem, but it's not about the sun coming up, so it's probably the wrong reference. "Be still, sad heart, and cease repining; Behind each cloud is the sun still shining...." You're right about Rikki-tikki-tavi; he was the brave mongoose in Kipling's story. But I didn't think...
  2. So was ours, Rinne. I think our mothers didn't ask because they had their own sweet memories of childhood. Cissie
  3. It isn't the gluten, Tavi; I thrive on history. Don't forget that I'm the Distinguished Chair Of Literary and Historical Oddities Department at good old UCCF. Cissie
  4. Rave on, MacDuff!!! When you're right, you're right! In my capacity as Distinguished Chair of Literary and Historical Oddities Department at UCCF, I bring to the attention of all citizens of Rachelville that there was a time, within recent memory, when children actually played. Alien though the concept may be to modern minds, children were not organized...
  5. Profoundly beautiful story, well told, Rinne. Cissie
  6. They are in a very bad mood! The heat has affected their wee brains, you see. Sprinkle a line of boric acid across doorways and/or windows, wherever they can gain entrance to your peaceful abode. Cissie
  7. I'm premature posting (Learned that from Susan.) because I checked in very late today. Blame it on the cafergot, which destroys the migraine but puts me to sleep. I have read far enough along to catch up with all your good wishes for me. You are all so kind, and I love you! Whoa! What? Crushed ice? Lord have mercy! I never thought of that! How dumb...
  8. My head is killing me - bad migraine. Guess I'd better use one of those adorable suppositories and pass out. Love and prayers to all. G'night. Cissie
  9. Oh, Karen, how awful! I'm so sorry! Does this go on all night too? I don't really know what collagenous colitis is, but it sounds God-awful! Cissie
  10. KAREN, Sally is right. Does your doctor even know? It sounds as if you should be in a hospital! Cissie
  11. YEAY!!!!!!!!!! God is Good!!!!!!!!!! Thanks, Vincent! I'm gonna stay on this string and wait for updates, instead of switching back and forth. God bless you! Keeping my prayers going for wee Megan. SUSAN, we love you! I sent you a pm. Cissie
  12. Well, Jeny, I guess I'm about 80% Celtic, 15% English, 5% German. It was all so long ago, even the German part; they didn't come over until 1750. Important to note: They ALL settled in the SOUTH!!!!! Praying for Megan. Cissie
  13. Is anyone here? Nashville is on Central Time, so in my time zone Megan should be in hospital in 8 minutes. Praying. Cissie
  14. Vincent, I forgot about Nashville being on Central Time. What hospital will Megan be in? Continuing to pray. Cissie
  15. Thanks, Jillian! I'll be ordering today! Cissie
  16. I use Maranatha brand peanut butter, and it is delicious! Kroger carries it in their health food/organic food section. I've never had a problem with it. It has no sugar at all. If you get it, you'll see that the oil is floating on top, so you have to mix it, then refrigerate it. The easiest way to mix it is to dump it into a bowl and mix away, and...
  17. Of COURSE it is! It's right up there with relevation and spinach! Cissie
  18. Agreed! NO BATS!!!!! Cissie
  19. Vincent, thank you for the update. My prayers for Megan, God's precious child, are joining with all others in the vast stream flowing to The Throne of Grace. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer. Christ, in Your mercy, hear our prayer. Lord, in Your mercy, hear our prayer. Amen and amen. Cissie
  20. Now THAT'S a title!!! Sounds so much better, put in your words! Y'all excuse me for a moment, while I write it down. Cissie
  21. Cecile, I thank you. My family always expected me to be a writer, but I got sidetracked raising children. My parents gave me a much-desired typewriter when I graduated from high school. To this day, when I sit at a keyboard, words pour from my brain through my fingers so fast that I have to slap myself upside the head to come out of my trance! Thanks...
  22. Cecile, my dear, you are absolutely correct! I didn't want to overwhelm a newcomer with too much information, but yes, Susan put me in the U. I think I'm a professor of information from the good old days, and something else that I'll have to go back and find. Oh, and I think Susan also dubbed me Town Matriarch. Cissie
  23. Town bum it is! Any news you pick up, while watching our comings and goings, should be reported to Cecile, our newscaster. She does an excellent job of casting news about! Amazingly, she's able to do this even when acting in her capacity as half a comedy team. We're all rather proud of her!!! Cissie I went back and edited my post about the...
  24. Welcome, Sally and Lisa!!! Oh, and Stuporman!!! Lisa, I'm the Minister of Defense in charge of our miraculous, dedicated, gluten-detecting geese ALL: Honey bees are our friends. They will pollinate our crops and work their little fannies off to provide us with honey. They will never sting us because Rachelville is a safe haven for them, and...
  25. Lord have mercy! Robbin, I forgot to speak to this. You are NOT whining!!!!! You are sharing with your friends; that's what we're here for. Cissie
