KDD: Groundhog's Day and Jeff's show 02.02.07 10;48 pm

This KDD was inspired after listening to Jeff's show earlier in the night.
He had given us an Impossible Question. Something like, Most Americans
have 38 of These? Also, we had chatted about a new product out on the
market as well as my KDd's. (: So, here you are. This is what I wrote after
listening to his show that night.

Today,is groundhog's day,
So, Jeff was going to have his show,continue to play,
All through the night & into the next day,
& we would all hear Chris, Marvin and Deseray say ,
What are you doing Man, your ruining our day?
We want a chance for others to hear,our music play?
And Byron chimes in,
As he does grin
And we don't want to hear how many pairs of underwear you all own ,
or about, Karen talking in the bathroom on the phone,
or writing something called a KBD,
or about her every day KDD's,
or, about, Puppy Braille, dropping her Bookport down the toilet, not her
Keys,
or about Jonathon & FS,
And what screen reader, you all like best.

who wants to hear Darrell, demonstrate the Olympus recorder for another
hour?,
Hopefully, it will lose power
And the battery willrun low,
And the server will go down & so,will the show,
& everyone, will go with the flow,
not like in the Movie, with Bill Murrey
if so, all would be in a hurry
to their favorite restaurant of choice to eat anything at all,
And have a ball,
eat all their favorite foods all day,
& not give a darn, as they continue to hear Jeff's music play,
& play,

& play. (:lol

What I have Learned

I do not recall where I found this, somewhere on the net. I think, it was
nethugs.com. I love inspirational messages and hope you will appreciate
this as much as I do.(:

I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be
someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them.

I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people just don't care
back

I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to
destroy it.

I've learned that it's not what you have in your life, but who you have in
your life that counts.

I've learned that you can get by on charm for about 15 minutes. After that,
you'd better know something.

I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to the best others can do,
but to the best you can do.

I've learned that it's not what happens to people that's important. It's
what they do about it.

I've learned that no matter how thin you slice it, there are always two
sides.

I've learned that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to
be.

I've learned that it's a lot easier to react than it is to think.

I've learned that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It
may be the last time you see them.

I've learned that you can keep going long after you think you can't.

I've learned that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

I've learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I've learned that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at
first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to take its
place.
(Amen to that!)

I've learned that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it
needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I've learned that learning to forgive takes practice.

I've learned that there are people who love you dearly, but just don't know
how to show it.

I've learned that money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I've learned that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have
the best time.

I've learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're
down will be the ones to help you get back up.

I've learned that I'm getting more and more like my grandma, and I'm kinda
happy about it.

I've learned that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but
that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I've learned that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest
distance. Same goes for true love.

I've learned that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want
them to doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

I've learned that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences
you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many
birthdays
you've celebrated.

I've learned that you should never tell a child her dreams are unlikely or
outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and what a tragedy it would be
if
she believed it

I've learned that your family won't always be there for you. It may seem
funny, but people you aren't related to can take care of you and love you
and teach
you to trust people again. Families aren't biological.

I've learned that no matter how good a friend someone is, they're going to
hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

I've learned that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes
you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I've learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't
stop for your grief.

I've learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who
we are, but we are responsible for who we become.

I've learned that sometimes when my friends fight, I'm forced to choose
sides even when I don't want to.

I've learned that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't
love each other. And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.

I've learned that sometimes you have to put the individual ahead of their
actions.

I've learned that we don't have to change friends if we understand that
friends change.

I've learned that if you don't want to forget something, stick it in your
underwear drawer.

I've learned that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could
change your life forever.

I've learned that the clothes I like best are the ones with the most holes
in them.

I've learned that two people can look at the exact same thing and see
something totally different.

I've learned that no matter how you try to protect your children, they will
eventually get hurt and you will hurt in the process.

I've learned that there are many ways of falling and staying in love.

I've learned that no matter the consequences, those who are honest with
themselves, get farther in life.

I've learned that many things can be powered by the mind, the trick is
self-control.

I've learned that no matter how many friends you have, if you are their
pillar, you will feel lonely and lost at the times you need them most.

I've learned that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people
who don't even know you.

I've learned that even when you think you have no more to give, when a
friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.

I've learned that writing, as well as talking, can ease emotional pains.

I've learned that the paradigm we live in is not all that is offered to us.

I've learned that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human
being.

I've learned that the people you care most about in life are taken from you
too soon.

I've learned that although the word "love" can have many different meaning,
it loses value when overly used.

I've learned that it's hard to determine where to draw the line between
being nice and not hurting people's feelings and standing up for what you
believe.

Today's KDD: Cool Runnings and Smoke Detectors

Its Monday April Twenty-third,

I am sitting at my computer, writing this KDD in word,

I just posted two more KDD's to my site,

And Darrell and I are both doing alright,

Two of the KDd's are from the past, earlier in the year,

And, Our Maintenance Guy Dan, has been here. (:

After, I got home from my Doctor's appointment,

The smoke detectors off they went,

For no Reason at all,

Twice it happened, he, we did call.

There,is no rhyme or reason, ,

Unlike the Seasons

We never know,

When off,it wil go,

In the middle of the day,

When, We are busy working away,

Or the night,

When, we are sleeping or blogging to our site.

He is replacing each with a new battery,resolved This issue, it, we must,

While he is here our A/C Filter he will clean, its filled with dust.,


Last night, we watched the Movie " Cool Runnings",not on cable,

And later, I will be home & will be able,

To be here for the entire show, in the Desert Cafe,

Hope you can join us later today?


The Movie is about the Jamaica Bobsled Team,

Them competing in the Olympics was the Theme

It had Action and Comedy,

Not Drama and Mystery.


From what they had said, Cool Runnings means The Peace of the Journey ,

That,is what I want for you & me.

I Wish you the best in everything you do

And Tell me, How are you?


Not much I have to say my Friend,

I said a great deal on my blog,, numerous of KDd's I did send,,

Unfortunately, many can not be posted to the site,

Way too personal, alright?

Perhaps,more, I can find for Reader's to view,

And if there are some you like, You can post too,

Please, let me know, before you just send it,okay?

And New ones, I will send there, will be on the way,

Weeks ahead, for all to review,

And still not sure, if this was the best thing for me to do?

Yet, not sure, when or how, I will have begun,

To allow others to see all the writing I have done,

Most, I will not reveal, still only for a select few,

You.

Well, do need to go, but take care & have a great day,

How are you? & listen to the show, what do you say?

KDD: All in the Hands 02.01.07 10;56 am

As they say, the " eyes are the window to the soul", Yet, I do not agree,

Its, the hands for me. (:

A persons hands, can say much,

Just by the touch,

Just by the contact, That,is made between the two,

There is a connection: Can Express affection,

And emotion, one's work ethic one can tell,

as well as, when, one,is not feeling well.

yes, all this, I can tell, from touching one's hands,

Understand, Much, the hands can convey,

may express, something, different from what one does say,

or I cantell when one has a hard day.

Its notjustin the hand shake,

But, also, in the break,

When, he/she breaks away,

Can say,

A great deal,

On how one feels,

About himself,

His health,

His wife,

His life,

Friends & foe,

You know? (:

Some, are into Palm reading,

That,is not, what I am needing,

I don't want to be a Fortune teller,

& I may never be Famous,like Hellen Keller,

but, a hard worker & caring

person I have become,

And I don't take life for granted,

Yet, not a very exciting life I have led., One can sometimes, tell one's
Occupation

,understand, Whether they worked & lived on Foreign Land,

Were dedicated &in high demand,

Worked in agriculture or in construction,

Worked indoors or out in the sun.

Sometimes, can tell if one is an Artist ora surgeon, & sometimes, can

tell, where they have been.

Sometimes, by their occupation or by the smell,

One can tell,

also

by their skin, callous's or such,

By the touch,

By, the smooth or rough

Texture,one, may know where you were.

One, may be able to tell,if your thoughtful & Kind,

And what is on your mind,

if your scared, worried or Content.

Often, by the touch, a message is sent.(:

I can feel love & comfort,

Acceptance & support.

I love hands of all sizes but especially men's. (:

Its one of the things I find attractive,, okay?

What canI say?

Is not the only thing, that makes a person attractive,you know?

So much more, they show,

Yes, it is their physical characteristics ,

but also their personality,

That is so muchmore important to me,,

& its the person, the whole package, that makes,one attractive you

see.(:

&, this ,is just one more thing, you have learned about me.(:

Today's KDD: Main Menu, M & M (: Wednesday 01.31.07 1;30 pm

M& M,MainMenu,,

Not M & M's, candy of any Kind,

However, technology,one can find.(:

impaired, All kinds of things, will be shared.

You can even recordit,on replay?

Delightful entrees will be served,

If you have the nerve,

To listen,read & review,

Each Item,will be Fresh & New,

Large portions on the Plate,

Check it out, will be satisfying & great.(:

Today's Last KDd: Douglas, my Guide and my Friend

A year ago this Week, My Golden Retriever Guide, Douglas had Surgery on his
eye,

He had a benign Tumor that is why,,

The Vet was Very Caring & Great

And us, he did Accommadate,

The Surgery was Free of charge ,only had to pay for the pre-operative
Treatment,

Much time, in his Office was spent,

At least twice a week and he had to take lots of medication every day,

Dougie did not get better until late May,

A week before Our Wedding,

And after that, not much he had to be seen,

Yet, during that time, he had complications, had develop an Ulcer, from
What Dr. Bowman had said,

Dougie was sensitive to light and his eye was red.

Had to wear a cone on his head.

He could not work and he did not want to play, bad we did feel,

Long, he took to heel.

As I said, he did not get better until before we Traveled to boston,

It was a very stressful time, not at all fun.

I was very worried about him,he is not just my Guide but a friend,

And much he does comprehend.

He is not a pet, there is a special bond there,

Much we do share,

The relationship is deeper, much like one would have with their Child,
spouse or mother,

It is not like any other. (:

He is loving and very smart,

And fills my heart,

He is like a child of Three,

Little he always will be.(:

He is with me seven days a week twenty-four hours a day,

We are with each other at work, home & at play.

Though, we do not speak the same language, we communicate well,

And, when, something is wrong, can tell.

Notjust when he is on Harness but when, he is not wearing it,

Seeing Eye, matched us well, a perfect fit. (:

He is my little shadow and I, his life line,

When we are separated, he is not fine.

He pouts, whines a little and cries,

We have strong ties,

We protect one another from harm so we can be safe and not get hurt,

Diminish the stress,pain & increase the independence and comfort,

He is like my child, my little boy,

Brings me so much happiness & Joy.

Today's KDd: Posting to my Blog and When I Was four

Yesterday I did diddly squat,

Just wrote and Posted to my blogspot,

I spent time lollie gagging all day & part of the night,

Writing & posting to the site,

What did I do?,Not sure,if it all was a good thing?

All those KDd's I did bring?,

For everyone to see?

Now, today, I wonder if it was all a mistake?

This is what I feel, as I attempt to wake,

Having coffee & listening to Kim on Interactive,not Our Place,

Wonder Guys, is my writing a waste ?

Not worth anyone's time?

Other then yours?, drop me a line,

Tell me so,

Would like to know.

Kim is playing music from 68 ,

I was 4 not 8,

& you all were even younger then me,

Darrell & Tina, you two were not even conceived yet and Jeff, you were
only two ,

Keri, onlyThree , we all were very small,

& I do not remember much at all,

Just having the chickenpox, playing with dolls, not trucks or a train,

& being on the patterning program to stimulate my brain,

Reading my first book, Ballerina Bess and learning to write my name,

Stuff like this: Don't remember having much fun

Had much Therapy, learned to crawl, swing from Monkey Bars and run

I was way too young to recall Current Events that effected the World and
nation

did not watch the news,

Yet, did watch Cartoons and have a pair of Patten Leather shoes,

Don't remember much, it was so long ago,

Do recall, playing in the snow,

& on our Swing,

& This is the KDD today, I do bring,

I should not Post anymore?,not very good , what do you think?,what do you
say?

Have a great day.

Today's First KDD: The Net; 01.29.07 12;51

Today, I already know, two KDD's, you will receive,

By now, that is not hard to believe,

Most days, I send at least one,

But, some days, there are more, & few, there are none.

The second KDD, will be written later today, as soon as I can,

But, for now, let this one began. (:

Jeff, I had viewed your site the other day,

& after reading, It made me think of a game, I use to play,

Your blog, I did red,

& then I had thoughts in my head.

This is what I red & what it did say,

That, made me want to play,

It said, live it, hit it, dig it & read,

&, My brain began to feed,

What came across my mind,

& here you will find. (:,

The game I am thinking of, Is called Bobbit, & one, I did love,

It is one of those games, you have to play for awhile,

>

To practice & will make you smile,

I got the hang of it & pretty good at it,

Had fun & for a while would sit. (:

It was one of those games, you would have to listen think & would have to

know what to do, what object to choose,

& if you did not, quickly enough, you'd lose,

One would improve their speed & accuracy,

& if you ever played it, you'd agree. (:

It would say, spin twist, Pull & flick,

& you had to make sure, you were on the stick,,

& fast do, what they asked you to do,

>

& if, not, well, you were through. (:lol

So, getting back to Jeff,your site,

This is what I now write. (:

I have created a game called the net,

If it existed, people would play, I bet,

You Live,reed, hit, & blog,

Dig, Pack & log,

You can send, ring & ding,

> Or not say, a damn thing. (: lol

>

You can google, read & skype,

Play, ding & type.

Perform these actions as fast as you can,

Y you will have fun. (:

You can run it,

Write it,

Capture it,

& send it,

You can dig it

Search it,

& again find it. (: lol

You can read the news,

Sometimes packets you may lose,

You can ping it,

& sing it,

& music you can play,

You can record , what you want to say. (:

You crave it,

Save it,

dive for it,

Retrieve it

& receive it. (:

It has a memory,

& does not forget,

anything , you do, On the Net. (:

>

All versions of the game,

Are not the same,

Some are fast & some, slow,

Some, you want to keep, & others, you want to go.

Some you will not want to pitch,

& others immediately ditch,

& learning some of these programs, are a b itch,

but,if you,hang in there,

if you dare,

You will soon understand,

& the more people buy,

The more demand,

& the less, supply,

So you better buy,

So, get into the groove

Get on the move,

What do you say,?

It, will make your day,

This & the game, do not delete

Don't you think, a game like this, would be neat?

Would it be cool?

A tool?

I know, I have a crazy mind,

I am one of a kind,

& here, in your box, the first KDD, today, you now, did find. (:,

The Very last KDD for Today : A Jo et (:

Do you think my KDd's are a combinationof journaling & Poetry,

Would you agree?

So, am I a Jo et?

A Journalist & a Poet?

This is unusual indeed,

The style of my doses that you all reed?

I am very grateful for the ability to write,

And for Darrell for creating this site,

So, I too, am Blogging, it's the latest craze,

And, journaling it's the first stage,

To getting published and one's name on the map,

I will begin by telling you, what is on tap,

For my day,

Or what Current Events I feel strongly about,

I will take this rout,

Take this road,

Write my thoughts about being disabled, in this creative mode,

As a woman whom is blind

I will tell you what is on my mind,

And in my heart,

And this is the method I choose to start.

Wish, I began blogging sooner, but do not know HTML,

Nor, I do not believe I write well,

Yet, that should not effect me from having my own site,

Right?

And,I should write,

Here, if I do want to be an Author some day,

Like Frost, Poe, Dickens & Hemingway?

Or Dean Koonz or Erma Bombeck?,

Should not matter,if I am not a teck,

Or a Radio Broadcaster?

Perhaps, this craft I will one day master?

One Final KDD: From Mountain Wings, " The Snooze Button "

MountainWings A MountainWings Moment

#3272 Wings Over The Mountains of Life

The Snooze Button

On the surface, This Message may seem overt, about sleep,

And for all those of us who let the alarm beep,

And the many times, it, we do hit , each morning of each day

Or while, we lie awake & listen to the music play ,

Or to the D J's on our favorite station

Before, we get ready for work or school & walk out the door,

Yet, it is about so much more.(:

This is an analogy, a metaphor,

The Author is saying do not quit, do not procrastinate,

If you push , it will be too late,

For you or I,

Time does fly,

Do as much as you can before you die ,

For you do not have all the time you think,

If your taking a wink,

& procrastinating, and putting off things you need to do,

do them until your through,

do not wait till tomorrow, next week, or year,

get in gear,

because, tomorrow,may not arrive, not come,

so, don't be dumb,

Follow your dreams and your heart,

Do start,

& once you do begin do finish,

for if you do not, you may wish,

you had and will have regrets.

I have been saying for years I want to write, thinking I did not have what
it would take,

Yet, that is a mistake,

I need to at least try, I may fail, but, I could succeed?

And I am starting with these KDD's that you all do read (:

From Mountain Wings.com (:

,The two hardest things about doing something is getting started

and getting finished.

Beeeeeeeeeeeeep.

This is your wakeup call.

Today's Final KDd: Acknowledgements

This is dedicated to you, Darrell & jeff (:

Thanks to you two for giving me a push and a shove,

To develop a hobby that I love

Thanks for your support, for being in my corner, in my ring,

For building my confidence , through these KDD's I do bring,

Just about every day of the week,

You do not judge and critique ,

The style in which I do compose,

Or the subject matter, I chose,

Or countless number of messages I sent by e-mail, long or short,

You always have been in my court. (:

Thanks to you two you gave life to this blog

Never realized, I would unleash journal entrys , that I did log,

From this last year

& now, my Daily Doses are now posted here.

Thanks to you I too, have a site,

I have a space on the net to write.

Its mine, Karen's Corner, my little nook,

Perhaps, it will give me the courage, some day to write a book?

Everyone has to start somewhere,

Maybe, it will be here, where I will share,

the happenings of my day, and topics that matter most to me,

It will manifest itself through the KDd.

Now, It will encourage me to work on this craft,

I was always, waiting for a perfect draft,

Yet, in life, there is never perfection,

Though, we all can do much reflection,

& through introspection,

be the best person we know how to be.

I feel self- conscious to take this Avenue,

For,it is something new,

And I am a private person,not much I do disclose, ever do tell

Unless, I know you well.,

Moreover, I am somewhat ambivalent about these KDd's, seeing the light of
day,

And those who view this site, reading what I do and say,

And despite this fact,

Or the creativity I may lack,

It will enable me to have a platform to create

years from now, something that could possibly be great?

Furthermore, improve this skill,it I want to enhance

Please, all give me a chance,,

& be patient,

Maybe, I too, can be eloquent?

And someday Famous? More will know my name,

I really do not care about Fortune & Fame,

I just love to write, its evident every day the thousands of words ,I
write,notin word pad,,

But in MS word, and its not a fad,

And I do not have an ulterior motive,

Rather, its something I live,

I have been Journaling Since I was a child, since Elementary School,

It is something, more then just cool,

It is a tool,

That allows me to deal with life's issues, that come along,

Just like a musician who writes songs,

Or a Ballerina who Choreographs a dance,

Or a writer like Danielle Steele who writes romance,

Or Robin Williams and Steve Martin, whom are Actors and Commedians,

Writing for me,is both rewarding and fun.

So,maybe I too, will some day have a novel on Barnes & Noble's Shelf,

For now, I do this for myself,

& for all of you,

Today's Last KDD: Happiness & Friendship 02.03.07 3;32 pm

This was inspired after reading a message from Mountain
Wings.com, titled " Mindset:

Happiness,is what you make it to be,
This Quote, I would agree,
, the Mountain Wings Message,I did receive the other day,
I Also, heard the Author say,
that,is in one's Mindset,
That if we are upset,
Or think we are a failure not a success,
WE are not necessarily,
In our own personal mess,
That,it could have everything to do with our mindset, our frame of mind,
& a solution, we need to find,
& be more gentle & kind,
to ourselves, to our person,
not to run,
& to confront the issues, understand?
&,if you need a hand,
there are others, to help you through,
Yet, as they say, & its quite true,
" god, helps those, who help themselves",
&, you, need to take the first step, & start with your attitude & gain a
fresh & positive perspective,
&, others will give,
help, support, &love he or she will send,
to you friend.

However, you need to be a friend to your self first, that, you need to do,
before anything,
then, solutions, will bring,
Reward, success,& you will be Content,
&, wonder,why, time & worry, was spent

un certain, things that were said & done?
Feel the warm of the sun,
Not the brisk wind blowing,
Yet, the love growing ,
Your not alone,find others, that you can identify,
&,its okay, to ponder & ask why?,
&, seek others, & make a connection, & someone with, who you can relate,
Who can provide comfort & make you feel great,
& walk with you through the journey of life, down the road,
to help you now & then, carry that heavy load,
&, evenif we do not agree, or entirely understand,
to give you a hand
& do anything we can, to help you through.

Some see the glass half full,& some see it not full at all,
& some, just complain & whine, when they call,
& are only there, when something they need,
You need to be able to read,
&, recognize,
they're telling lies,
When, they say,
They will be there for you today,
& tomorrow
Through, the Joy & the sorrow,
In good times,
& in bad,
When, your happy & sad,
But, when, you need him or her the most,
They tooka trip,
To the coast
& heor she did fled
& you realize, he or she, did not truly mean, what he had said.
& so, you definitely, need to dependon yourself,,
& those who are true friends, it will improve your mental health. (:

One is being unrealistic,if he views life, through a rose colored glass
We all are going to have problems, but, it too, will pass,
&, most things, will heel with time,
& eventually, you will feel fine. (:,

& as Ronnie Millsap said so well,
& that I want to say & tell
" let my love be your pillow, & lay your werry head on me,
Let me turn your life into a beautiful dream,
I won't promise you, there won't be hard times,
We will share,what comes down each road of life,
& if things turn out wrong,
you can turn to me,
let my arms be your blanket,
When you sleep.
Letmy love be your pillow,
Lay your worries down & rest your head on me,
Let my love be your pillow......

Today's KDD: Nothing, your Expectations 02.10.07 1;29 pm

Each & every day,

You assume, I will have something to say,

Something of value, filled with humor, & worth your time,

& saying more then, just, I am fine.

I more often then not, write more then a paragraph,

To inspire & make you laugh,

& also tell you what I will be doing each day or night,

& so, you all expect me, to write.

However, soon after I rise,

I realize,

I do know,

If, the creative juices will flow,

&, what, my mood is, & state of mind,

&, if a subject, will be hard to find,

or if, I already, have material, that I can use,

if,not, Events,from the News,

or from you, clues,

I do need,

If, an interesting, KDD, you will read. (

Today,is not one of those days where, I have no thing,

So,a good, KDD, I can't bring,

Sometimes, think your expectations are too high,

&, always, think, I can write something, other then, say hi,

How are you?,

& that is it, then, I am through,

Just because most every day,

I have so much more to say,

& just as you expect the sun to rise in the East & set in the west

Don't you think, my Brain, needs a rest?,

Do you always, think, the creativity, can flow?

That, I am always on the go?,

That, you will always, receive a KDD,in your mail,

Without fail?

That, there will always be music, rock, Country & hip hop,

& my writing, I won't stop?,

For the most part, that is true,

If I can, A KDD, I will do,

As long as I am alive, & beat, does my heart,

I will do my part,

Not to let you down & your expectations, I will try & exceed,

Because, your KDD fix, every day, you need,,

& if, one is not sent,

if, I am absent,

& ,I do not write,

You all,wonder,if I am alright?,

Me, you do rely & depend,

To send, your dose, each day my friend.

Yet, sometimes, I really struggle to compose,

Not sure, where, the creativity goes,

Sometimes,like today, I have my fingers on the keys, in the same position,

Attempting, to complete the mission,

A frustrated expression on my face,

Wanting to fill the space,

& get a KDD sent your way,

To make your day,

The best it can be,

& send you a little note from me.

I guess the creative juice flows a little bit today,

Yet, nothing, I really did say,

Just wrote, about what, I can't do,

Not about me,or you,

Or events in the news,

Or the television or radio,

Or anything that happened at work, home or on the show.

&, wrote about nothing,

But, something,

My ability, not to write,

&, guess, I did alright,

It will have to do, okay?

& do hope you have a great day. (:

Today's KDd: Talent or not? 02.3.07 11;18 a.m

What came over me, last night?

To say,the things I did & write?

Was I delirious? Or just had great material in my head?,

Just waiting for it to be disclosed?,

For an unusual KDD, to be composed?

Not sure, why, I wrote those things I said,

I should have been in bed,

Was not feeling well, should have been Lying down, my little head,

& had a bowl of soup,Juice or Tea,

But, you all gave me, good writing material you see.

Jeff, you especially did this,

& so, the opportunity, I could not miss. (:

It was strange indeed,

& on the air, so, glad you did not read,

For,if you had,

I'd be mad,

Just for a little while, I suppose,

& my creativity wouldn't flow,

& less, KDD's, I would send to you my friend,

So, very glad, that, was not the case,

&, that my talent,, can be revealed,in this space.

Not sure, Tina,if I would refer to it, as talent,

With what I write,in these KDd's, I sent,

& if any others, would ever want to take a look?

I would never see my name in a book,

On display,

That, would be the day,

&, can I write about other topics, other then myself or bathroom humor?,

at least, I don't spread roomer's,

&, I will never be a Comedian or an Author,

work that would take, much more,

as said,not exactully , How, I can go about it?,

do, I have an artistic ability & whit?

Could that be a goal, that I, could achieve?

Would, others, want to receive?

My KDD's & other things that I write?,

In their e-mail or snail mail, & read them at night

Instead of doing housework or reading the News?

Would I cheer them up?, or give them the blues ?

Would they even care?,

The thoughts, I do share?

Every day?

Or would they rather work?, or play?

Or even sleep or exercise?

Could I lend support & say things wise?,

My writings, are a work in progress,

But, maybe, it is best

To keep this aspect of my life not exposed?

Not sure, what the world, would think,of the KDd's, I compose?

Its not like, I could be like Dear Abby, and Ann Landers, Columnist such as

those two,

&, If, I could be a third, be someone new?,,

Be among them, in that Arena,

What do you think, Darrell, Jeff & Tina?

& its notlike, I'd even really want to be writing a column like this &

People's problems, give a reply,

Would my advice, would they, even buy?,

I would rather, write a self- help book, Poetry ,

& a novel, filled with Romance & mystery. (:

do you have any advice, to help me obtain that goal? Could I write?

Would others, really want to see my material in hard copy or on my own site?

Do, I have the ability to write??

The skill??

I have the will,

& the desire,

Yet, would my writing, would someone use, to fuel their fire,

In their fireplace?,

&, my words, be a waste?

& they really think, it is written in poor taste?

Or give my material in soft cover, for their kid to play,

& not interested in what, I have to say?

& the Movie, Groundhog's day,

is on now,

& so, want to get on my way,

& I, will write more later today. (:

Today's KDd:My Life,now under a Microscope (:

If I knew the Internet, my KDD's would Reach,

I would have titled each,

I did not know, they would eventually, be posted & I would have my own
site,

so much, I did write,

Never realized I could write just about anything,

Hundreds of KDd's this Past year I did bring,

Most did not have a date,

&, to me, they are not that great,

Not good enough to get posted to a blog,

Its one thing, to log,

& journal every day& send some to my best friends , you know,

Yet, did not think, elsewhere, they would go,

For the world to view & find out a little of who I am,

Will I have a Fan?,

& readers who wil look forward to reading my daily doses each week,

did not know information about me, would leak,

& get out beyond our lan ,

Perhaps, the KDd's, I may not have began?

Its interesting, how they evolved & the things in life that do occur ,

Not sure,

If, this form of journaling is such a good idea?

Do they, have good writing appeal?

Me, expressing my thoughts, what I believe & feel?

&, the happenings of my day, will they continue to see the light?

Hmm, I don't know, now, its more difficult to write,

Now, that my life is under a microscope , under the lens,

These KDd's are being sent to just more then my friends,

My thoughts are now, in the Public eye ,

For all to see, not just those who listen to ACB R I,

On display,

Now, some will be reading closely what I do & say?

Not certain,if this is a good thing,

But, KDd's I already did bring,

& now, I am at the point of no return,

many things about me, you wil learn,

that once, were only sent by e-mail , will travel miles,

Will they bring you smiles?

Laugh, Cry & inspire & keep you on your toes?

For you never, know from day to day, what, I will compose?

You got to admit, my blog is not like anyone else, I am one of a kind,

No other site, you will find,

In cyberspace,

Hope my blog for you is not awaste?

Happy Reading & enjoy reading my KDd's,

& if you have any comments & feedback Please post them Please,

much it would be appreciated ,

on things I have done & said,

& for you writers out there,

you too, do share ,

& provide me with techniques & tools so, I can improve my writing style,

for now, will continue to write, hoping to make you all smile. (:

KDD 1/10/07: TextPal

Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2007 11:25 AM

Subject: Text pal, A KDD about it! lol

Textpal,is something, I think I'd like to use,

to write my KDd's and write about the News,

or , My opinions about the Novels I do  read?

Except, directions, with functions and all,I do need.

It does stink,

Because, I can't find a link,

to Text Pal,

Developed by Ja Mal Not a Woman named Val,

or by Weird Al,

Yet, perhaps, he will  write a song about it,

and, it too, could be a hit,

Just like the AOL song,

Or   the One titled " when everything goes Wrong"

Or to the beat  " you got the right Stuff or " she drives like

Crazy",

Maybe, some site will have it, maybe too, in format Daisy? lolol

Maybe, in MP3?,

still, think,its cute, you see. Think,one could  write a Journal Program,

or to even send a telegram?,

or to   write the lyrics of a song?

hmm, for someone, that would not take long. Or  could be a tool  to

write a menu,

or a long list of things to do?

Or  recipes, you want too cook?,

or a list of  favorite books?

or, research on a Cruise,

or where to buy, the coolest shoes?

I  do not care about shoes  but, do about Slippers,

and, cute,is  flipper.,

One can use it, to track, calories burned,

and wonder,if text Pal, could be easily learned?

Or  write the steps of a favorite dance,

or letters of   Romance,

Love notes, to ones Spouse,

for those of us, who don't use the  mouse, and access information, by the

Keyboard Instead,

and write pillow talk, after B and B in bed. lollol

What about  keepping track of one's budget and Financial Reports?

or is this better in excell?

Is this  program,not very good for this,  does not work well?

Or would be better,Quicken Or Money Talks?

to  write down, songs for the  play list,ones that rocks?,

Who cares about stocks

don't have to worry about cleaning socks.

I guess Text Pal can be used to edit anything?

can it, be programmed, to make your telephone ring?, Or clean your House? or make Children behave?

Would, it automatically save?

any document and file?

could it be utilized to write E-mail to Dial?

Nah some of  this, I know,  can't be done,

But, wouldn't it be cool, would be fun?

Wouldn't it be cool, if it could track how  far  one did walk?,

or be able  to change the voices, and get it, to talk

I know this too , can't be used by this tool, Yet, it too, would be cool.

Well, That's all I have  to say,

Hope your enjoying your day.

as well,?

KDD 4/7/06: A silly Poem about Jascinda!

Sent: Friday, April 07, 2006 9:01 PM

Subject: A silly Poem about Jascinda!

(This KDD is about Jascinda, Jeff's guide dog, being a computer wizard and programmer. Very silly. The "patch" refers to Microsoft's April 2006 update that messed up a lot of web applications relying on ActiveX controls.)

Hi Guys,

Jeff,    after, we  got home, we have been listening to music  Through

Darrell's  computer.  We are     listening to our selection.  The   stuff

that was playing on ACB radio during  your  time  slot was   just not

cutting it.* that   music is  good for a  sunday morning but  not  on a Friday night.*

Well, anyway, I saw your  Msn  status &     the  below     poem I wrote.

I am   very strange  I  know. lol..  I   don't know    what on     earth

made  me  start writing about  this..   its   my  mindless entertainment

for the   evening.    I hope  this makes  you   laugh.  Darrell & I were

in stitches on the  floor.  * hope, you find it just as  humorous*   Hope,

it brightened your day. I  can  write     about  just about  anything!

lol.. take care, talk tomorrow, or  today, saturday  by the time you see

this. Jascinda  poem below.   Enjoy!

Jascinda says," she does notlike the  patch"?

Oh, what a catch,

She is a computer  wizard,

Likes smelly dirty old socks

Not chicken gizzards.

She  can  think   at any place,

Her dog guide training,

Wasn't a waste.

She can think lying down,

She is  a little princess

She should wear a  crown.

She wears a new Bandana  every day,

She knows, she is cute,

Hears, many say.

She uses her brain,

When walking in the  rain,

Out in the  sun,

& after, her duty is done.

She  barks  the commands,

Her master Jeff, understands

& gives him a helping  hand,

Writing code,

& lightens the load,

With waggie tails,

&  assist with tasks,

when, Jeff asks

Sometimes, she    has  a  blank look on her  snout,

Pretending  she doesn't  know what  programming is about?

She says, who is Bill Gates?

I much rather, have  dates,

With   Douglas,

Who lives 2 hours from me

Or chew up everything I am not supposed to chew ,

You see!

I much rather do somersaults,

& other  types of  ,gym nast ics

But  programs I am told  to fix!

So, this  patch is eve ill ,

It is a bitter  pill,

Daddy is right,

Daddy  tells   Mommy,   he  needs  benefits  tonight. lol

Don't know what  they are referring too,,

Yet, I know, what  benefits me,

Eating Purina

Walking , playing & peeing on a tree.

Well,  its 8;42 at night,

Can't tell time,

Yet, I  know, it's not light.

We should go home,

If, Daddy  doesn't hurry

I will scurry,

& run home,

I  will  roam,

I am smart, I know where home is,

After, all, I am a  genius, a wiz.

Well,  I have   better things to do,

Like  sleep &  chew.

So,  I will write more  at a later  date

I am great,

Don't you think,  you should have this in the  news ?

&  tell all ,what  I can do?

After your through?

Its  your choice, you  could  write  too,

If, you do neither, I will  bite,

Just kidding,

Take care, have a good night.

Today's Last KDd: Mass Shootings & the Meaning of life

One never knows ,who will become a murderer or go on a killing spree,
If anyone will kill you or me ,
Or our society as a whole,
Don't allow anyone to take your heart & soul,
& stop you from living your life,
we need to protect our home, Children ,husbands & wives,
we do not know from one day to the next, if we will be attacked on
our soil,
Thank goodness, The CIA & FBI,some of them, they do foil

So, It could be worse I suppose?
Weeks like this, keeps us on our toes,
& makes us think & reminisce,
What we could lose, & miss,
, about what is important & we attempt to understand the criminal's
mind,
what makes him/her so cruel & unkind,
heartless & pure evil,
What makes one kill?
& another not?
Why do some conspire & Plot?
To attack our Nation & another's land,
This, I do not quite understand.
Why do some become Hero's?
& others, the 10 Commandments they can't even follow?

What makes one use a bom , Gun or a mish Eddie,
We need to be vigilant, not be afraid, but ready,
Unfortunately,, this is how society is in this day & age,
So many filled with anger & rage,
Who chooses to use WMD's While others use bomb's instead,
hundred's or thousands of people dead,
Very high is the Fatality rate,
We all remember the date,
& shouldn't forget,
watch the news & surf the net,
WE need to hold on to those who are dear,
& not live in fear,
WE need to remember, our History & why we are at war,
& what the Troops are in Iraq for,

Sometimes, life seems way too intense,
&, we cannot make sense,
War & murder I intellectually do comprehend,
Just do not know, why not more of us, can't be friends,
Not foes ,
You know?

Do you wonder why, I am writing about this or the subject of time,
Or about this job of mine?
Would you like to know?
Perhaps,Because on this day 12 years ago,
It was the Oklahoma city Bombing & 8 years ,Columbine tomorrow,
I am sure, there are so many lives still filled withsorrow,,
& Millions still dealing with their grief,
Our life on this earth is very brief.

Some may have forgotten about these Events, get caught up in life
from day to day,
& from moment to moment,
& wonder where the time went.

yet, all of us are reminded again this week,
& answers we seek,
There was a Mass shooting on A college Campus, Virginia Teck, ON
Monday ,April 16,
This will not be the last,more I am sure, will be seen,
Schools will have to take more measures & precautions,
To hire more security Guards, & check for Weapons Knives & guns,
To make sure all children are safe & the property is secure,
So, nothing else like this does occur.

The Gunman was from South Korea not Japan or Grease,
Why , can't their be peace?
Thirty-two innocent lives were lost ,just the other day,
Do not know what to say,
Yet, their pain, I do feel,
Long it will take for the families & friends to heel,
This all seems so tragic & senseless,
& for awhile this story will be in the news
Police will find the clues ,

& solved will be the case soon indeed,
Closure all do need.
I find this a difficult subject & no more I can write

Sorry, alright?
Perhaps, I will reflect & Journal again,on this some day?
For now,it's a little too much,
My emotions, I am getting in touch
For another time,
Hope that is fine?.

Today's Second KDD: My Job, Its a Juggling act

I feel like I am a juggler in a way,
There is so much to do on my job each day,
I work in Hospitality, & at our Hotel, many Guests stay. (:
Most are Groups, 85 %,
& 40 hours of my week are spent,
four days a week , My job I do enjoy, & do it well,
& I am employed at a chain Hotel.

I work in House keeping as an office coordinator,
Not in Food & Beverage as a waiter,
Or as a massage Therapist or a Front Desk Agent,
It enables me to pay the rent,
Put food on the table,
& other services like Internet & cable. (:
I do not workin PBX , Landscaping or accounting, where numbers they
crunch,
Or workin the employee cafeteria, where, they make our lunch,
Or work at the Pool or valet,
I answer the phone all day,
& use a Nextel phone as a two-way radio,
most of the time, fast the time does go,
Most of the guest are pleasant & do not complain,
& we get leaks when,it does rain,

Fortunatly we do not get snow,
&, we have singing Gondoliers who row,
boatson the lake,
& we have Computer tecks, who fix the systems when they break.
I am like a receptionist/dispatcher rolled into one ,
&, there is always work to be done,
Unlike most, I do have fun
& Like what I do,
How about you?

It's a lot to balance & I need to prioritize , calls come in fast,
Some request I need to dispatch first while others last, ,
Phone lines ringingoff the hook ,& my radio blaring,
& need to be patient, friendly & always caring,
no matter, if your feelling ill or having a bad day ,
need to be professional & not disclose that with the Guests who stay.
(:


I hear from Guests who need amenities,
Not those who need keys,
& we do not just clean the Guest rooms , you see,
but also, ballrooms, pool & Lobby.
& do so much more,
& we have a health club, camp & a Gift store,

Managers from Banquets, Reservations PR & sales,
Give me a call or sendus E-mail,
With plenty to do & work to complete,
& I do it well,
never thought,I'd want to work for a Hotel,
since, Ihave my degree in Psychology, thought I'd be a
Psychiatrist & listen to other's problems all day,
Life is interesting,, wouldn't you say?
Perhaps, I will write a novel as well?
For now, I wil just work here, at the Hotel.
