Mesothelioma Issues

I have to say that I don’t know all the much about the much talked about this Mesothelioma Disease that a good amount of people are having to deal with these days. I do know that there seems to be a lot of commercials for Mesothelioma Attorney practices advertising their Mesothelioma Lawyer services for people to take advantage of.

I just recently found out that a neighbor has been in contact with one of these practices. It seems that he was in the Navy back in the Vietnam days and spent some time on a submarine, which is where he contacted this disease. He has been experiencing symptoms for years and had no idea what the cause of these symptoms was until just a few years back. I’m glad that he found out about this condition and is taking action and could possibly get some money to help with the situation. Our Vets deserve all that they can get for what they did for us and our country.

Green Thumb Issues

Our mother was totally into having the house looking it’s best. My father was responsible for the outside work and my mother was in charge of inside the home. She never worked a day out of the house and was a dedicated mother and home maker. She was known for her Indoor Planters and Outdoor Planters as well. The neighbors were always so envious of her green thumb and she always received the highest compliments for her talents.

I on the other hand did not inherit her green thumb all though I have managed to keep her favorite plant in her favorite Decorative Planter alive and doing well these past couple of years. I do better with outside plants but I’m trying the best that I can.

My sister, on the other hand, does quite well with her Window Box Planters that she keeps looking good all year round. So for Christmas I’ve got my eyes open for a nice Planter to present her with on Christmas day. I think she will appreciate it and put it to good use. If not I guess she will re gift it like she does with so many of the gifts that she receives!

Mail Box Concerns

My older sister has been after me for some time now to purchase a new mailbox. The one that is out on the street now has been there since as long as I can remember and has seen better days, to be sure. She (my sister) saw a program on the TV the other evening that was all about the issue of the importance of people’s mailboxes. It seems that the police, fire fighters and ambulance drivers are having a hard time finding and/or reading the addresses in the emergency situations that they find themselves involved in.

Since I live here on the farm alone, my sister is always concerned with my health and safety issues. She means well but sometimes she gets carried away and really gets on my last nerve. Looking at mail boxes just isn’t something high on my list these days, so I told her that she should consider purchasing one for me and use it as my Christmas present. She hasn’t replied to that email as of yet, but I’m sure I’ll be hearing from her soon.

Class Rooms

I have to say that I think that it is pretty cool that these days you can find Math answers on the Internet. Today’s students can now get high quality Online tutoring for just about any subject out there from K-12 and all the way up through college. There is a great site at tutornext.com that you can find all kinds of school help. Wish we had something like that when I was attending school and struggling with Algebra 1 and Algebra 2.

I used to be able to help my nieces and nephews with their homework when they were in elementary school. But as soon as the started middle and high school I have to tell you that became pretty useless, especially in the math area. If I don’t have a calculator in hand I’m pretty much in hot water these days.

On day I’d like to be able to take some college classes, but they will be on subjects that I have an interest in, like history. Too bad I wasn’t interested in history back in my school days because history is fascinating to me and I’d like to learn more in a formal class room setting one day.

Trying To Catch Up With The Rest

I’m glad to hear that there is a major push for all kinds of ways to become “green” I understand that even some of the web hosting companies are doing their part in going green. That is a good thing since we all need to do what we can to help the situation that our mother earth is now in.

I’m still learning so much about computers and am grateful that my kid brother knows so much about today’s computers and the World Wide Web, I’d be in deep trouble if not for him. He knows all about colocation, dedicated servers and managed hosting issues that I know absolutely nothing about. I just wish he had more time to spend with me, but he is married with children and his time is precious as most people’s are these days.

So I’ll keep trudging along the best way that I can. With the holidays coming up we are all going to be busier and busier each day. Not something that I’m looking forward to and I don’t think that I’m alone with that mind sent!
