Ears

Have you ever wondered what your ears look like?  It is hard to get a good look at them.  And never side by side.  I could take a picture I suppose.  But my mind wonders to other ears before I get around to it.

Like the ear on the mouse. 
 This is weird.  I remember reading about this ear that has been grown on this mouse so that it can be transplanted onto some guy who has lost his ear.  I wonder how the mouse feels about this.  His friends probably picked on him for his big ear.  I know kids do that to each other.  And I wonder if he ever felt like nibbling it off.  Mice do weird things sometimes.

And when they removed the ear, what happened to the mouse.  He suddenly couldn't hear very well.  He was use to having super hearing and never had to worry about a cat sneaking up on him.  But now he had to rely on his little ears.  And where did they get the extra mouse skin to do a skin graft on his back.

And then there is the guy who got the mouse ear.  When he feels his ear does he jump.  Or maybe he squeals.  Do people tease him because he has a mouse ear.  Why couldn't they grow the mouse on a more respected animal.  Why a mouse.  Couldn't he grow it on his own back.

And should I have used question marks with all of my thoughts are were they just statements.

Does the ear have uncanny hearing for cat meows or cheese being unwrapped?

Hot town!

Of course you have heard me complain about the heat lately. This will be a regular thing for the next couple of months. I looked on CNN weather page to see just how hot it was and it said at midnight that it was "99 and dreary". So true. We are thankful for electricity and air conditioners. When I do aerobics I turn the a/c on and it makes it bearable. You would think that the fat would just melt off. The problem is that ice cream is so cold and refreshing. Then there are mango shakes. yum.

Redeemed

Psalm 49:7-8 “No man can by any means redeem his brother.  Or give to God a ransom for him.  For the redemption of his soul is costly.” It is an amazing thing when someone comes to faith in God.  Last night I got to witness my brother in-law give his life to Jesus.  His life was redeemed.  The ransom for his soul was paid by Jesus long ago, but yesterday he was set free. My brother in-law was in darkness.  He knows his life was full of darkness and demonic presence.  He has been hearing about Jesus for years and knew that if he ever decided to become a follower that he would do it completely, not half heartedly.  He finally saw that he needed Jesus.  So yesterday he prayed a beautiful prayer acknowledging his need to get rid of the darkness in his life and knowing he can’t do it on his own.  Jesus filled his life.  My brother in-law said he felt something leave.  It was the darkness.  Jesus has filled his life...

The Party

Last night I went to Allison's (sis in-law) batchlorette party. It was at a mexican restaurant/bar. It was a very crowded place so we weren't able to get a big table all together. Allison and her girl friends were at one table and the old folks (me and others) were at our own table (feeling awkward). Allison showed up at the place drunk already, from a bit too many drinks in the limo. I thought it would be embarrassing to be around your mother in-law to-be and your grandmother in-law to-be, but she didn't seem too worried about it. Allison wasn't a bad drunk really. She was a little loud, but not obnoxious. I felt old. I had a new dress on, but I ended up looking like an old lady instead of a young thing. I had some nice shoes on too. But my purse, which looked fine at home, turned into an old lady purse. It was also cold out, so I had a shawl. I'm glad I had it but it just added to the old lady look. I don't drink for two reasons. First, I am che...
