I will have a porch and a rocking chair, and wearing a denim skirt
down around my ankles.

Mama...best not keep that denim skirt pulled down round your ankles...those WV hill boys are a randy bunch.


We all remember 'Deliverance'.

Condolences on the passing of your other half Mama.

My personal belief is that we live on after death for as long as we are remembered.

May your memories of him remind you of his memories of you and the times you shared together.

G,day sport. its ok to talk to your cat a little more
as i found myself talking to the grand daughters giant rabbit
yesterday when i feed the thing
stuff like hello roast dinner
i need to fatten you up a bit more
back to the cat.
it only becomes a prob. if the cat starts
talking back.
be safe and may the LORD watch over you
and have a happy and a safe new year

around my ankles.

Ain't nuthin' wrong with talking to your cats and *for* your cats. I do it all the time. Of course, no one has ever accused me of being sane, either.

I will give you some clues for you to figure out where
mama is going.
1.My Volvo has duct tape on the driver's mirror and will fit
in to my new state.
2.I have some missing teeth.
3.My moving there may even raise the state's IQ points some.
4.Good old boys with pickup trucks and possibly a still squirreled
away somewhere.
5.John Denver sang a song about the state MANY years ago.

One of my favorite songs behind any that mentions Georgia or the South .

Look , keep on coming down to Georgia.
The cost of living is low and you would be very much welcome here.

Mama I am always thinking of you and wishing you the best.

Lord you have had such a rotten year.

You're always in my thoughts.

So sorry to hear this Mama, such a terrible thing to go through anytime especially during the holidays.
You're an amazing person, much loved here at ATS and no doubt in real life as well. Prayers for you and your late husband.

Hugs.

Wishing you the best.

My sincerest condolences on your loss, MB.

I hope your move goes smoothly. The thought of moving is daunting, but hopefully the excitement of your new location will help some with that.

As for talking with your cats, I wouldn't feel bad about that at all. I talk to all of our animals, and they all talk back in their own ways. Sometimes we even give them voices, which I am confident would fit very well with their personalities if they could speak for themselves. No shame in that.

I will say this though, the cows, while very smart sometimes, have a very limited vocabulary. Basically, "Feed me!", "Ouch!", and "Where's my calf??". Oh, and "Sorry I ran over you. I was scared."

The bulls, on the other hand, only know one sentence..."Hey little girl, want some candy???" And they just keep repeating that line over, and over...and over again, for their entire lives! LOL!
