I liked that word for the day.

They call the jaybirds 'snowbirds' in Arizona.
The reference is usually made regarding their driving
as opposed to crossing streets.

But oblivion is definitely a factor<g>

_____________________________

Yes, I know 'snowbirds' are those who flee the winter cold for the warmth of Arizona, but I suspect the 'snowbird' label is many faceted.

The amusing thing about it is that most Arizona
drivers seem pretty bad, at least in the eyes of this California road warrior. :-)

MARIE PETERSEN………………= release, peace, salvation


My 87 year-old mother died on Sunday and was buried yesterday. She was a wonderful woman who would have loved hanging out on this thread. She was in the middle stages of Alzheimer’s and I am grateful that her physical ailments took her before her mind was overwhelmed. She greeted every morning with the words “I’m Alive!” Every day was a new adventure for her, even though some of those days included periods of anxiety and fear. She loved fresh flowers and she had reached a point in her life where every cookie was the “best cookie I have ever eaten.”

Both of my parents were extraordinary people, charitable and tolerant. Their good works touched the lives of hundreds of people. I am humbled by the example of their lives.

Some words for myself:

GLENN PETERSEN……………= grief, acceptance, peace
