You are going to witness some fantastic changes in the world in your lifetime; some good, some not so good. Maybe you can influence some of the good changes.
Whatever you choose to do with your life, it's going to be quite a ride, and you have good parents behind you to support and love you.
Try to be compassionate, if you can, and be kind when the opportunity presents itself. It takes so little effort to do a small, kindness every day and the ripples spread like warmth and touch so many.
It's a harsh world out there, 'little man,' so be strong but remember that a man can have a tender side. Appreciate the trees and mountains; the birds and flowers and all the beauty that is a gift to all of us.
Make many friends in your lifetime and see how love grows and spreads. You've made a start already .
Your friend .... Jeannie

Thank you ....Gilly...WITCHY
Sweetie..remember this one...I will always cherish it and it's in Gilly baby-book. His first poem from a woman. [giggles]
ReplyDeleteI remember it and I wish him happiness on his second birthday and lots of fun.
ReplyDeleteThat is one beautiful baby. Is it Gilly? Boy hewas gorgeous. Will you have a party for him??
ReplyDeleteHi cutie
ReplyDeleteYes his sisters/brother is ready to party down ...it will be Saturday.
ReplyDeleteI just had trouble again trying to write a note for G. First Blogger wouldn't print it and then it went offline and finally it printed the note three times. Maybe it's my computer.Can't figure it out.
ReplyDeleteDid you get my e-mail I sent this evening???
ReplyDeleteDad seems to be having the time of his life. It was not a mistake for him to retire. He is happy.
ReplyDeleteSorry luv I have been out all evening but I will check right now.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's your computer, I think blogger is updating...I wish they would give us our pencils back.
ReplyDeleteDad is very happy, hell he's to damn old to be worrying with headaches like the one he had.
ReplyDeleteDad told Dan he never realize how good it would be just lay his lazy ass around.
How is Nana ? I bet she was sweet today, I remember you sayng when she's good , it gets scary.
ReplyDeleteDid you give the Rock a big sloppy kiss and a pinch???
You can reread it, but you can wait until the next one to answer.Anita dropped off another one this evening and I heard him say Damn that Shirley.I will send you another one.
He's not lazy really. He is your star salesman.And he is trying to convert people to the enlightened state of awareness about climate change. He's going to Washington to talk to Bam Bam.He also is an active grandpa and baby-sitter.That's pretty active for eighty-three.
ReplyDeleteSweetie...can you see me..One of your notes disappeared maybe it will be back. It's the one where you said you would reread it whan we log off.
ReplyDeleteBoy the plot is thickening. And it's getting worse almost every day. How do you deal with people like that, who do not wish you well. In fact they would like it if harm came to you.It's all about greed.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it great that Gil's partners have his back?
ReplyDeleteDad enjoys every minute of it, but I think my babies babysit him.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I told him he's 83, just hang out because we never know when we will have to say goodbye , he's taken care of everyone and now it's his time to be spoil.
Yes I can see you fine. I want our little pencils back too. I loved them.
ReplyDeleteI hope Gilly likes his party and sticks his whole face in his cake like Jakey did when he was two.
Yes it real good they have his back.When He open his office here, he asked one to join him , so Jack came, the four have been together a long time, I think over 25 years.
ReplyDeleteAnita said after he told her he was going to open an office here, she asked how soon do you want me there.
Leon should have talked to him.
I think he will put his face in it they bought his presents last Saturday.
ReplyDeleteI remember writing that letter to Gilly. I should write one to my new grandson.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know they called him G C at the firm in Reno.
ReplyDeleteHave you given Brian his hug/kiss and did he do the jiggle dance tonight and is Maxy still mad at you ?
ReplyDeleteLeon is acting as stupid as his sister.They are all like rats deserting a ship.
ReplyDeleteSweetie that would be so sweet and you can announce his birth here like Heidi did and put his poem on also.
ReplyDeleteGilly weighed 8 lbs. 9 ozs.
Jill weighed 8 lbs. 1 oz.
They say diabetics have large babies.
They are all biting the hand that fed them.
ReplyDeleteEnough about the bad, bad C****o's
The Rock and I made up. I am so grateful he is still with me and he is a wonderful man. But every now and then he is an arse-hole.
I can be one too if the mood strikes me.And he sure lets me know if I am. So we feel we are even
I think Leon is mad because Lois husband is going to make partner by the first of the year , he worked his ass off worked and bring in business. I know Gil told Leon he would have to get off his ass because they have people on the payroll.
ReplyDeleteDo you find that as you are together longer, you fight less??
ReplyDeleteI bet they would like for me to drop off the face of the earth but sweetie I don't interfere in his business , but they know I'm not afraid of them, they found that out when they first got here...Hahaha
ReplyDeleteSounds like Leon was getting a free ride. You don't get promoted just because you're family. You have to put in the hours and sweat first.
ReplyDeleteYes,we fight less but ain't it's fun making up.
ReplyDeletehave you notice I haven't had a good rant with/about him since he got back home from aunt Mae's.
Dad said he will fix it.
I guess Leon wants his old job back driving Dad but he will have to whip Mac's butt. Leon was Dad's driver for a very long time I know he was driving him when they got here.
ReplyDeleteThat's true, you have been very sweet and mild mannered.Haven't had
ReplyDeletea single complaint about Shank. Dad really did fix it.
WTF kind of a lawyer is a chauffeur? It would appear, not a very good one. He must know he isn't partner material. He just thought he would get the partner ship because of his relationship to the Shank.
ReplyDeleteis that a picture of Gilly or some kid you found on the web.
ReplyDeleteOne last thing I found out:
ReplyDeleteThey are filthy rich and they are so unhappy, I really pity them .
My family is not rich but we all are comfortable and we all stick up for each other...even my crazy sister Susan.
So that maes us richer by far because we would never stab each other in the back.
One I found on the web...I tried to find one as close as I could...
ReplyDeleteThat crazy fool would shit a baby.
ReplyDeleteNot even Rhonda has pictures and she told me she understood the reasoning and why, Dad was the same way with her daughter.
You got that right sister. They will always be miserable. They will never have enough.
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, it doesn't take much to make us happy
The last note Dad wrote you was a very long one and it posted 2 times, I deleted one and I told him the neaxt time he write you just break them down and write 2/3 and see how that do...he said okay that's what he will do.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, I am happy just being me.
ReplyDeleteI like to go out every once in a while, I like taking care of my family and sa you know I love to cook and my men love to eat.
So you have always known Rhonda and according to dad you are friends with her daughter and hubby and they think the world of you.They sound like very nice people.
ReplyDeleteLeon is barking up the wrong tree if he thinks he will get something for just being kin from Gil, hell my babies have to take out the trash to get their allowance. He says they have to learn.
ReplyDeleteI didn't picture Gil as a strict father, but I agree with him completely.They will never learn to value things if they don't earn them .
ReplyDeleteThey are nice ,I didn't say anything because they I knew after Dad started talking with you he would open a lot of doors for me to tell you things, that's why I wanted him to talk to you, a lot of their life got so many cob-webs , there's beginng or ending.
ReplyDeleteI would tell him some of the things you found on the web and he would say maybe so, daughter I don't remember all the shit they wrote.
ReplyDeleteBio will just be getting up when Sammy gets back home from practice. It all worked out very well for Bio. He gets to sleep in.
ReplyDeleteWell it is so nice that you can speak openly with me at last. I don't feel any more that it is all one sided. We can trade gossip about our families and trust each other like real friends and know we are both safe.
ReplyDeleteNo beginng or ending to the cob-webs.
ReplyDeleteHave dad told you their names ?
Gil told them he worked saved his money and bought his first car . Miss smarty pants said daay we can't but a car with the chuck change from our allowance, we want some big money like you give mama.
Oddly enough, Dad opens up to me about a lot of things I wouldn't have thought he would.He sure is proud of his son.
ReplyDeleteWell her hubby is Troy A. and now is a sport's commentator (football) he had to retire early from being hurt so much. She met him when she was working as a sports reporter, her name is Rachel.
ReplyDeleteJill is like seven going on forty seven. She is so mature. And such a smart alec.
ReplyDeleteGil is Dad's golden haired boy and Dad is proud of him, he went to public schools which you know Dad could pay for private schools, but his mama said no, he was going to school where he can learn how to live and treat everyboby not just the rich.
ReplyDeleteDad said he paid for the best education money can buy and that's all the money he gave him . he worked at the casino as a dealer and cage cashier.
Sounds like Rachel and Troy had a romantic beginning and dad says they are very happy.
ReplyDeleteI think he also mentioned they had a couple of kids.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the things that made Shirley mad, that Rachel might get some of dad's money and she wasn't even related.
For gosh sakes, she's his wife's daughter. That makes her his step-daughter and that is at least as close as a niece.
I told you Dad wears partials in the back and he asked me had I seen them and looked at Jill.
ReplyDeleteShe said oh poppa , I don't have your teeth my baby got teeth , Sha and Jonny starting laughing saying poppa you got them in your mouth, Dad looked at me and winked..Jill acts a lot like dad.
I'm sure Dad is quite forgiving but he doesn't have enough time to forgive all these people. They are screwed.
ReplyDeleteGil told Shirley Dad wasn't giving Rhonda anything, Rhonda worked for everything she has and naturally her daughter will inherit her money and he will get his dad's if there's anything left.
ReplyDeleteHe don't want or need any of it.
Sweetie there is so much difference in Gil and his family, he told me once his mama told him he was not going to be like them, she was raising a man.
With dad living in your house and being there most days, all those kids will probably be just like him. What a funny thought...HA!
ReplyDeleteSooooo, Toots, the old clock on the wall says 1:27 and the dog is doing the peepee polka. He watches Dancing With the Stars religiously.
ReplyDeleteYou should see him doing the Tango.
Do you remember the tango in Scent of a Woman? Good,eh??
I will see you down the road a piece. Saying goodnight is so sad but have a sweet repose and a sunny tomorrow...Luv ...PIC
Dad may be forgiving but his son is not, he won't even talk about them...Chris came over and they went in the library with some drinks and I know Gil was telling him about the package Anita brought over today, I will tell you tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteHe told Chris he almost had things together. He told Chris he could beat them or kill them about the things they said about his family..but it will be much more fun to beat them by the power of the brain something none of them has.
Look for another long e-mail tomorrow , I bet this one has some juicy stuff.
ReplyDeleteGoodnight sweetie and I am being as good as I can(not really)
GOODNITE...HUGS & KISSES...PIC
Kiss the Rock...
PS: Ain't you a lucky woman Gil's mom did such a good job on him? And he ain't like the rest of those C's.
ReplyDeleteDid the kids like Annoying Orange?
Marshmallow Murders?
PPS: yes to both questions and they have taken their daddy's PC.
ReplyDeleteTake after Dad that will be a hoot, Gilly is like him now, he likes ladies.
Rachel will be getting her mama money as it should be.
Nite
