Some say the world will end with fire.

Others say with ice.

From what I've tasted of desire

I hold with those that favor fire.

But if I had to perish twice,

I think I know enough of hate,

To say that for destruction ice,

Is also great and would suffice.

GOT 'EM RAISED

Last night about 2100 we got a call from Lightning Strikes to tell us that she was engaged. We have been expecting this since he came to our house Christmas night so he and his two cute kids could be with her for Christmas. It was a long drive for him to come here Christmas but nearly twice as long yesterday to get to where she is living.

I am tickled that she is getting a good man in her life. She deserves one since she has had so many that weren't. I am also pretty tickled to be getting two more grand-kids. They are cute as a bug and we had a lot of fun with them over Christmas. She is the last of our children to be married.

GUESS THAT MEANS I GOT 'EM RAISED, ALL SEVEN OF THEM!!!!

I was kind of wondering how long it would take. :) I was actually wondering if she would move down there to continue the courtship, but I guess they figured out a better way!
