HI FOLKS I DON'T WANT TO BE A "KILL JOY"
BUT WE HERE IN THE SOUTH MAINLY SPEAKING KENTUCKY ARE GETTING HIT
WITH TEMPS IN THE SINGLE DIGGETS. WE MUST BE VERY AWARE OF WHAT CAN HAPPEN. SO I AM GOING TO GIVE MY BEST ADVISE TO YOU. I KNOW THAT MOST KNOW OF THESE SIMPLE RULES BUT THOUSANDS LOSE THEIR LIVES EACH YEAR
DUE TO LACK OF KNOWLEGE OR FORGETFULNESS!

ALWAYS DRESS IN LAYERS: IF you can dress in layers this will help keep the body heat in.

COVER YOUR HEAD! It is a fact that a lot of body heat is lost through your head! (Heat rises to the top)

WEAR GLOVES,AND BOOTS AND HEAVY COATS.

OUR OLDER FOLKS:
PLEASE CHECK ON OUR OLDER FOLKS TO SEE THAT
THEY ARE DOING OK IN THIS WEATHER
Our government has cut down on services to
the elderly. A lot don't have money
to heat their home. To me this sucks when we are throwing billions into Iran ect and we don't have enought for Americans seniors.
Please knock on the door or call a eldery person and make sure they are ok in this cold weather.
In Il. they have found 3 elderly folks dead from frostbite and no heat! What a shame! This should not happen!

NOW FOR YOUR PETS:
LOTS OF US FORGET OUR PETS THEY NEED SHELTER TOO!
Bring your dog or cat inside if you can. this is the best way to protect them.
for others, make sure they have a warm place to stay in and water to drink. you would not want to lose your pet to the cold!

YOUR CAR OR TRUCK:
BEST ADVISE, MAKE SURE YOU CHECK YOUR FLUIDS OIL, BRAKES, TIRES
KEEP A SPARE BLANKET SHOVEL WATER SNACKS IN CASE YOU ARE STRANDED.
AND OF COURSE A GOOD CELL PHONE I USE THE TRAC-FONE BECAUSE I ONLY NEED IT FOR EMERC'S. FLASH LIGHT, FLARES,RADIO,AND SOMETHING TO USE TO FLAG DOWN A PASSING CAR ECT.

I LIKE TO KEEP ON THE LIGHTER SIDE OF LIFE IF I CAN BUT WITH THIS BAD WINTER WEATHER I WANTED YOU ALL SAFE AND SOUND

MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU SAFE AND WARM
YOUR FRIEND
BIG DEAN AND FRIENDS


.......MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM ALL THE GUYSGARFIELD,TOMMY LULU AND OF COURSE ME

"REMEMBERING THE BRAVERY OF PEARL HARBOR"

65 YEARS AGO WE WERE ATTACKED BY JAPAN.
IT WAS A WAR WHERE MEN AND WOMEN LOST THEIR LIVES VERY FAST
JAPAN DROPPED BOMBS ON PEARL HARBOR.
IT AWOKE IN US THE ANGER AND THE AMERICAN SPIRIT!

NOW IN THAT HARBOR, LIES THE BATTLESHIP ARIZONA.
SHE IS A WATERY GRAVE TO OVER 2000 MEN.
SHE IS COMING APART
WE SHOULD DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO PRESERVE THIS
NATIONAL TREASURE.

LES WE FORGET, THE MEN WHO LOST THEIR LIVES IN THAT SHIP!
FROM THE LATE SHOW:
"NOW DAYS THE JAPS DON'T HAVE TO BOMB US, SONY PUTS OUT A GAME
CALLED "PLAYER-3'AND SIT BACK AND WATCH US KILL OUR SELVES OVER IT!"

WE NOW FACE ANOTHER WAR WHERE BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN ARE FIGHTING
A WAR THAT REALLY WE SHOULD NOT BE IN BUT WE ARE!
I FOUND THE FOLLOWING CHRISTMAS POEM ON ONE OF THE SITES I USE
AND THOUGHT ABOUT THE FOLKS OVER THERE IN A FAR AWAY PLACE
AND THOUGHT ABOUT THEIR FAMILIES LONELY FOR THEM.
I WANT YOU TO KNOW I THINK I SPEAK FOR MOST AMERICANS
WE WANT OUR TROOPS HOME SOON AND SAFE.
WE WANT TO WISH THE JOY AND PEACE AND VERY BEST WISHES
FOR THEIR FAMILIES
PLEASE ACCEPT MY VERY BEST WISHES FOR A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS
AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR. I AM SORRY ABOUT THE SMALL PRINT ON THE FOLLOWING:

MAY I SAY GOOD LUCK AND CONGRAD'S
TO ALL MY NEWEST PARENTS AND OF COURSE PARENTS TO BE.
I JUST THOUGHT I WRITE SOME THINGS FOR YOU THAT YOU'LL FIND OUT ON YOUR OWN
I KNOW HOW SCARED YOU MUST BE, AFTER ALL YOU ARE GIVEN THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL A CHILD! A LITTLE BABY! A PERSON! WHAT A GIFT!

WHAT MAKES A GOOD PARENT?
I really don't know the answer to give you.
I can tell you what happen in my life with 4 daughters,
but I really can't explain how they became grown women.
It is like that song "SUN RISE SUN SET SWIFTLY FLOW THE YEARS!"
Or "YESTERDAY, I WAS YOUNG"

Yes what you are being given is a gift some folks will never know.
you will have to be able to show
the way of love to you child.
Not only when he/she is a little cute baby,
But a teenage rebelling,I hate you kind of kid.
You will still have to love them!
When you ask them to clean their room and they tell you
NO!
You will still forgive and love them!
I still think of my Daughters as my little girls.
(guess I lie to my self to keep young)

Then they grow up after all the doctors, school meetings, food, clothes, dolls, love ect. and go out on their own. You are sad, but very glad you made it this far in the PARENT GAME, but really wonder how you did it and then think back in wonderment at your parents and how they made it thought it with you. God has a funny kind of humor I guess but He does know best I guess.

I WISH YOU ALL THE VERY BEST OF LUCK (you'll need it) Oh one more thing you can't brake the child unless you drop her/him so be careful you don't } WITH ANY LUCK YOU WILL MAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO WHERE I AM A GRANDPARENT X 6

MERRY CHRISTMAS,HAPPY HOLIDAYS,GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR CHILD
BEST WISHES
MAN MOUNTAIN DEAN AND FRIENDS
