Ramblings of Silver Blue

I’m goingto church to run the music for the choir special, and then Tink and I are headed down to Elizabeth City for Miss Anna’s funeral, which is at 2. I’ll post this afternoon, but didn’t want anyone to be concerned (like you would be anyway) by my lack of posting.

Nite!

Anna B. White ELIZABETH CITY Saturday, Dec. 27, 2003 The Virginian-Pilot Anna Byrum White, 73, of the 1000 block of N. Road St., died Dec. 25, 2003, at her residence. She was born in Chowan County to the late Ernest Ray and Annie Baccus Byrum and was the wife of James Marshall White. She was [...]

UPDATE: Since so many of you have emailed me asking what some of these songs sound like, as a year end gift, there is approximately a 30 second snippet of each song (in MP3 format, 22500 mHz, 64 bps stereo [FM Radio Quality]) available of each track by clicking on the name of the song. [...]

Is that you can find some interesting reading. I Speak Of Dreams linked to a post earlier, which enticed me to wander over to her blog. Some good reading there; visit — I think you’ll enjoy!

Tink gets contemplative exploring her own morality mortality. Revog is just downright grumpy. Dave discusses what he wants to be when he grows up. Pixy gives us an entertaining post regarding foods down under. Madfish Willie has some AWESOME rules to read and laugh at. Jennifer shares some leftovers. Now, to find some rest, I [...]

But Very VERY necessary: and:

Bill has a Christmas full of farting zombies and no pants. Fritz discusses an advertisement displaying, a, uh, yule log. Susie once again shows that she’s different from the rest of the world in her food taste. (Hey, at least it’s not haggis!) Tiger’s missing in action. Here’s his last post. If anyone sees him, [...]

Goes to “Spam Town” — anyone who can put a smile on my face while I’m sick — especially regarding a subject I hate! (Spam mail, not spam, the wonderful mystery meat.) Best of luck to you!

and actually, PoloRandy, Tink & I celebreated Christmas last night. Not because it was December 26 and we wanted to take advantage of all the sales there have been, but becuase with Miss Anna’s passing and everything else (including this cold I seem to have) it’s been the first time, before midnight, that all of [...]

I’m exhausted. Miss Anna’s funeral is Sunday at 2. Back to bed with me. Here’s your final thought of the day: Nite!

…to learn the benefits of the legal system, obviously. According to CNN, in the attached article, a mother has filed a lawsuit for her 2 year old for “lost wages and other compensation” after he cut his head at a playground. Lost wages, you say? Yes…he appears to be a model and actor. At 2 [...]

I just received the phone call from PoloRandy, informning me that Miss Anna B. White, 74, entered into God’s presence at 7:41 this evening, leaving behind a battle with invasive cancer that lasted over 2 and a half years. She is survived by her loving husband of more than 40 years, Marshall White, and four [...]

….a Merry Christmas. Blogging will practically be nonexistant as I’m cooking today. But, still, happy holidays to all!

I just heard from PoloRandy, who’s on his way back up for the candlelight service at PMUCC. Unfortunately, Miss Anna is even worse than before, so much so that the hospice nurse said 24 hours, 36 hours at best. Miss Evelyn says she looks just like her mother did before she passed away. It’s a [...]

Well… let’s see. PoloRandy’s packed and shipped off the Elizabeth City where a gaggle of his family will be gathering in celebration of the arrival of the Christ child. Somewhere far away in Ohio (I actually know where, but it sounded better that way) my mom and grandmother are starting christmas over. The first, in [...]

A special American Greetings card for you all. Extra Special Thanks to Susie who was the first blogsphere friend to send me a card this season. You made Roxette Bunny™ laugh, PoloRandy a bit reflective, and me smile.

Nite!

made absolutely no sense, did it? Oh well. I blame it on cold medicines. PoloRandy will be filling the house with all sorts of holiday scents this evening, as he prepares all the food he takes down to Elizabeth City. I’ve got to find the music for the Christmas eve service and find out how [...]

oh wait. i’m already on holiday. Started last night with sneezing, a bloody nose, and feeling icky. Has transpired into a full fledged head cold, I think. Just what I need in time for christmas. NOT. The furance is working — too well, in fact. The water it sends through is nice and hot, the [...]

Ever been talking to Grandma and have her say “In a slow oven…” (does this mean we need to find an oven at low speed or perhaps one who didn’t excel in academics?) or “In a Moderate oven…”? Here’s the deal: A Slow Oven is about 300 degrees. A Moderate Oven is 350 degrees. A [...]

Christmas, the most commercialized of holidays (and we’ve forgotten the true meaning of it), is coming, whether you’re an athiest or not. So, is all your shopping done, or will someone be receiving a chia pet from the local drug store that you purchased at 4:30 on Christmas eve?

Be sure to visit this site (and click on each reindeer). Thanks to DMA2 for passing this one on.

As Huey Lewis & The News sang…”It’s Hip To Be Square”. Nite!

Well, I see the spin doctors (Ridge & Dubya) have raised the terror warning level up from Bert to Ernie. We’re one step away from Elmo, which is the top of the chart. You know, not once, not for a single minute have we ever been at levels Oscar or Cookie Monster. I think the [...]
