my mom
Posted by Hello

my mother

when things get hard for me i would think of my mother .she had a rough life growing up. her life started out easy her dad had a good job which is saying a lot for a black man in the south in the early 1900 hundreds she said he had a car and he worked for the city of savannah. then the divorce i dont what cause my grand parents to breakup but things went down hill from there her mother moved with her and her brothers and sister to new york and would leave them alone at night to fend for themselves while she would go out to clubs. when my mom married my dad her inlaws made no attempt to hide their feelings about her. they were mean to her and to us my mom had to work to support us, appease evil inlaws ,and try to encourage her man to standup and be a man. i believe my dads major problem was that he listen to the wrong women his sisters and his mother. they didnt want him to be successful be cause they hated my mother and they openly showed their contempt for her childern .but my mom was a very forgiving person she would say if someone gives you a stone give them bread she also said that she only wanted to live long enough to see all of her children grown well she got her wish.she also used to say ,ya,ll gonna miss me when i am gone . and you what know she was right

if theres a cure for this

remember the swine flu epidemic of 76 .the vaccine had side some bad side effects. about the same time diana ross had a song out that went, if theres a cure for this i dont want it .iam mentioning this because every drug thats advertised on tv seems to have some side effect sure you might not be incontinent any more but you might have uncontroled fits of vomiting, or you allergy might be relieved but you wont be able to stop farting you could get something to control the gas but it,ll cause headaches . i cant get into this ,you have kill the patient to cure him, mentality the pharmaceutical companies seem to have. the best thing to do is to go to a health food store or find a old person they know a lot about home remedies. its even better to try to lead a less stressful life and eat to live .some people just live to eat , and relax . my momma always said this world aint going nowhere it was here when you got here and it,ll be here when you,re gone

they torn down paradise

yep, they torn down paradise and put up a golf course on hutchison island. we use to go over there to fish on the back river, we would catch red drum ,stripe bass ,flounder ,and with a cast net you could even catch shrimp .you could go back there at low tide and catch shrimp to fish with when the tide turned .now access to the river is blocked by a golf course and all the blackberry bushes have been replaced by putting greens and fairways and what little wilderness thats left will be replaced by a gated cummunity. of course there,s lots of piers to fish from around here but when was the last time you saw a bobcat or deer or even a rabbit around a fishing pier well it,s suppose to be progress i think its excess i have already seen a fox in my yard i guess a bobcat is,nt far behind .

time flys

ah its monday again so quick it seems the older you get the faster time goes by except when you,re some place you dont want to be then time drags it flies when you,re having a good time i guess you get older faster when you,re having a good time if you could get on a dance floor and shake your booty for three weeks straight nonstop at the end of the three weeks you will have a circle of people around you saying go grannie its your birthday and you,re wondering where did the time go. yeah time is fleeting but it can be held captive for a minute.the bait, a smile and a hug for loved one ,a walk around the block,a slice of pie with ice cream and whip cream and ,well you get.just enjoy your self for a minute because before you know it it,ll be monday again

poor bruce

my youngest son farid a couple of years ago decided that he wanted to be a farmer so he got a few chickens well after gathering a few eggs that no one would eat and hatching a few chicks that a fox did eat, well if you can have chickens in the city a fox isnt to far fetch and it was the first one that i had ever seen that wasnt on tv.well after one rooster attack to many he decided that it was time to get rid of bruce the rooster. with spurs as sharp as ginsu knives bruce has become a force to be reckoned with. when you go to the yard to hang up clothes you had go armed for chicken. a broom usually does the trick.but now the enemy has to be arrested,disarm ,and sentenced to the roasting pan, the line has been drawn in the chicken scratch. now who,s gonna do it?
