My Dad

I just got back from Mother Frances hospital. Had to check dad in again. He is losing blood and still has heart issues. I really wish they could find something and fix him. He is so down. When it rains it pours.

Please keep my dad (Jim Reeves) in your prayers.

Hey buddy, can you spare 4 tires?

Along with the cost of our lovable fluff ball (King), I need tires. I have about driven mine down to nothing. When I used to drive a small truck, I could buy 4 tires for like 200 bucks. Now that I have an SUV after wrecking my last truck, tires are like 600 bucks. Incidentally, the wreck was not my fault.

I love my Extera, but why does Nissan have to put some weird size tire that no body stocks and you have to order them on it? I swear I want to meet the designer of some of the parts and just pray for him.....you know lay hands on him?

I hate having stuff snow ball. You try and get ahead and you have 15 things waiting in the wings to just nail you. On top of that Liz's van needs to be aligned. You know, its just money.

I know I am blessed. I know that God has always taken care of us. God has been so faithful. I know all the right verses.

So God, I love you. Thank you for blessing me. I trust you.

King

I love my dog. I really do. BUT yikes they are expensive. Yesterday was supposed to be a simple 40$ check up at the vet. turned in to a 140$ visit to the vet. We were not prepared for that. That really throws a kink in some plans.

I mean just look at this lovable, old, fluffy, silly dog. Who could not love him?

An Old Red Neck

He turned thirty-five on Monday, In his hair he had some gray
But he still ain't changed his lifestyle, He likes it better the old way
So he wants a little garden in the back yard by the fence
He'd consume what he'd grow nowadays in self defense

He's never liked the twilight zone, cause it just don't make no sense
He gets off on country music, cause big hair left him cold
He's got young friends into new wave, but he's just too friggin' old
And he dreams at night of Woodstock 2 and the day Kurt Cobain died
How the music made him barf, and gave him a head ache
Yeah he thinks of Courtney Love, And he has to wonder why?

He's an old red neck and he don't know what to do
Should he hang on to the old, should he grab on to the new
He's an old red neck...his new life ain't to bad
He ain't trying to change nobody He's just trying real hard to adjust

He was sure back in the eighties, that everyone was cool
Then they sent his friends off to Desert Storm on their senior trip
And they forced them to become a men while they was still a boys
And in each wave of tragedy, he waited for the joy
Now this world may change around him, But he just can't change no more

He's an old red neck and he don't know what to do
Should he hang on to the old, Should he grab on to the new
He's an old red neck...his new life ain't to bad
He ain't trying to change nobody He's just trying real hard to adjust

Well he's always stayed away, from the parties and the clubs
And he's thinking while he's biking 'round
Sure is glad he quit the miller light
Cause him and his kind get more endangered everyday
And pretty soon the species will just up and fade away
Like the smoke from his hippie parents bong...just up and fade away

He's an old red neck and he don't know what to do
Should he hang on to the old, should he grab on to the new
He's an old red neck...his new life ain't to bad
He ain't trying to change nobody, He's just trying real hard to adjust.
