Have a great day.

Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow
And everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb was sure to go

It followed her to school one day
Which was against the rules.
It made the children laugh and play,
To see a lamb at school

And so the teacher turned it out,
But still it lingered near
And waited patiently about,
Till Mary did appear

“Why does the lamb love Mary so?”
The eager children cry
“Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know.”
The teacher did reply

since I’m not familiar with that story I like it a lot. I always like your stories so you’re always make me glad with your podcasts. I was doing a puzzle on the table while listening to the podcast and think it’s funny. So would love to hear more.

Hope you’ve a nice day. Take care.

Thanks for putting on such a great podcast!

I absolutely don’t think you were an idiot! How wonderful to be treated like a person who matters. I can’t wait to hear the next installment.

Wonder what they’d do if they found a car full of yarn and roving? Bet that would be safe from teenage boys.

Thanks for the great thoughts on expanding our minds!

She will find something worthy of her time and talent. It’s so nice that she has you to back her up.

I’m so very sorry for you being upset and also sorry for your sister. I think she knows how you feel and it will be a comfort to her knowing that you care. It’s a teachfull podcast to me, not being dyslectic I think it’s great that you’ve put this “rant” on line. Perhaps your sister should download it and send it to her former boss. Only since he’s a ^&^%^%$^&* I don’t think it’s helpfull but it could relieve some of the pain that she’s feeling.

Dealing with this and the loss of her friend must be hard, I wish that she’ll get another good job with someone who can understand what being dyslectic means and hope that now since one door closed another good and bigger door will open.
Perhaps it was meant to be? Perhaps she’ll be happier in another job. And I understand that finding a new job isn’t easy.

Sending my thoughts to you and your sister there are people who do care, who want to learn and keep focused on that. If someone doesn’t want to learn it’s their loss not yours. You know better and handle from that knowing.

Looking to the future and goals is better than looking behind. From looking behind you you only get a stiff neck. Hope you’ll be fine from the heatstroke, please also take care?

Sending big hugs from me to you.

Valeria.

Grasshopper story…what a trip that one was. That guy was way too comfortable, thinking you’d give him a ride back home. very entertaining.

ROFL on the cricket. You’re almost Cinderella the way they’re all responding to you.

I think a bad joke episode would be funny! I love jokes good or bad!

You are a great story teller and I eagerly await each week to here what you have to tell us!

love the story and am glad that I’m not the only one who talkes to animals in any forms or lenght or size. I had a big laugh about the cricket who was on holiday with you so thank you very much for this episode and take care

Llamas are not VERY large animals when compared to horses or cattle; you do have the weights correct. BTW, we own a female llama, aged 24, going on 25. Our llamas are sheared in our chute if they will not stand still in a small pen. Hums in a llama means they are not happy or concerned about something. Clucking is usually a challenge of seniority. I’ve never heard a “click” in a llama.

Otherwise, very good!

As a large woman with low self-esteem, my hair was very long and thick and pretty much the only thing I liked about my body at the time, so it was very tramatic for me. I questioned my doctor about getting a different medication and her response was that the medicine helped with my migraines so I should just change my hair style. Change to what? Bald? No thanks.

I never went back to her. I found another doctor who prescribed me a different medication that also worked for my migraines but didn’t make my hair fall out. I’m happy to say that it has since grown back, nice and thick as always!

I am so glad you’re back on the air.

Carry, feel better. And take it easy. We will be waiting patiently….

Sorry to hear your still not doing well voice-wise. I hope it heals soon!

Severe small world syndrome…did you know Mur is my next door neighbor?

/not a knitter
//old friend who has been out of touch
///still listening on the shuffle W. gave me.

This is SSOOO embarrassing.

On the plus side, I’ve caught up! Course now I’ll go through withdrawals waiting for the next podcast…

I enjoyed hearing about Mur’s socks!

I have made sure that both of my girls understand all the facts from an early age and encourage them to discuss anything with me. I don’t want them to have the hardships that I went through because of ignorance.

Carry- feel better soon!

No worries.

I like fixing things

One of these I might visit my birth place. My father was in the Navy, so we didn’t stay in one place for very long.

The specialist told us that the bone/plates at the top of her mouth didn’t grow together correctly and nothing surgically needed to be done, but she would definitely need some therapy. Luckily there was an excellent speech therapist in her elementary school that worked with her from kindergarten to 5th grade.

She didn’t get teased too much, some yes, but when she did say something, it was always so intelligent and witty that everyone could tell despite the way she spoke that she’s very smart. I think it helped that she took karate lessons for a few years and won several trophies at tournaments. Boys don’t want to tease a girl who can beat the shit out of them.

Now, she speaks fine. She’s still conscious of it and often speaks softly in groups, but over all, I think she’s managed through it very well! I think she’s amazing! She’s 12 and already knows how to knit, crochet, sew and do cross stitch. She makes some pretty wonderful things and get’s all A’s in school as well.

Thanks,
Darlene in PEI, waiting for your next story or rant I love them all!!

My boss’s moral of the story was “You’ve got to trust your people even if they are dogs”.

But now I’m back. I’ve got another sit-down-at-the-computer-all-day job and it’s boring…boring enough for me to find plenty of time for podcasts! Yes!

I hope you don’t mind getting lots of comments from me concerning your old podcasts as I begin catching up because I do indeed plan on listening to everything I missed over the last year.

Thanks for the update on the family.

I love your podcast and listening to your stories.
I hope Sadie starts behaving soon. Good luck, and I look forward to your next story.

I’ve really enjoyed your podcasts; thanks for telling us your stories.

I hope things work out for both you and Sadie.

Thanks Carry
now I am off to look at Mike Rowe pictures

It’s a very fine, difficult line to walk, no matter what color you are and how you were raised. I consider myself fortunate to be raised how and where I was. Violence wasn’t so prevalent where I lived when I was young.

I identify with your keeping your head in a book. I was the same way.

Also, I’m not sure what you mean by thinking you offended people with one of these podcast episodes (this one maybe?). Maybe I haven’t gone back far enough. Anyway, I’m not offended you brought this up. I’m glad you did. It’s nice to hear people’s histories.

And another thing (lol). I can’t believe your stuff got stolen. That was just not your week, huh? It sucks so bad that people do things like that.

I’ve been listening to your podcasts for quite some time, but I’m usually in my car, or on the train, or somewhere away from my computer and never think (until now!) to let you know how much I enjoy your eclectic podcast topics! I hope you’ll keep putting them up. Thanks!

…Once reason to get married is the living will/asset situation. You should consult with a lawyer to make sure you can make decisions if one of you gets sick. Even if you both make the same amount of money, you want to make sure any assests you jointly own would go to the other in case of a death.

Good point Sherry, wills can do what civil marriage does. My fiance and I would prefer to have just a religious ceremony, promising our fidelity to each other, etc, rather than state sanctioned civil marriage with license. One of a few reasons is our grown children’s concern over assets of each. We want our children to feel comfortable that our “marriage” will not disinherit them.

Problem is, I can’t seem to find information about being married in any particular Christian church, where there would be no license, but where the religious ceremony of marriage would be registered in the church.

Any help would be appreciated bigtime.

Thanks, Max

Carry.
