how many of you still have their Christmas
decorations outside? |

- We got our Christmas decorations away in January, but two Chistmas
decorated cups and a cannister moved to the kitchen and are now being
used. -Last month driving through Enoree, SC. I saw a wooden cutout of Santa
and sleigh on the roof of a house. It is hilly there, and the house was
downhill on the other side of a stream valley, with the porch roof about
the same level as our car on the road. It was probly a good trick to
get it up in the first place, and would need a lot of work to get it
back down. I can't see that it was hurting anything to leave it
there. -Some folks here have straw hats with spring flowers on their front
doors. In the next block is the Easter egg tree, I noticed. They have
added more since the last time I went by there. -Most of our cities are scary now. The cops can't keep up with the
crime. The kids are allowed to run wild from the day they are born, so
they think they can do anything they please, and there's no penalty. In
the black culture, the girls also carry guns, fight with each other or
anyone who crosses them. Some are very strong, and heavy. When school
is in session and during very cold weather the crime is less. Of course
they grow up and eventually get tried as adults, but the jails still
seem to have revolving doors, in one side and out the other. Part of
the black culture has always been that they go around in groups of
several kids, siblings, or some they know. It is not usually couples.
So, as the saying goes, if you can't lick 'em, join 'em, and the white
kids are beginning to flock together, too. That leaves us old ladies
as the target group.
So we try to go in pairs, at least. I think I will start carrying a
cane with a wrist strap, when I have to go alone. I never carry a purse
any more. If it won't fit in my pockets, I leave it at home. |
