I think Michigan in winter is colder than my northgerman home. But these days my Dahlies get frost and I have to grab them out of the earth and save the root inside for next year. the best of cold winters are the air to breathe when the sky is blue. But here is often cold and rainy in winter. I don`t like it. coffee It is the only thing to do then.

right. we'll probably get lots of pics done and lots of books read!

In the moment I read a book about a little old "state" near here. It described the government along the 16 century to the 1850 is. The different interest of the farmers and the nobility and the greater influence of the old german countrys. In that time germany was a rag rug of german countrys. And the farmers has to pay tax and other things to the nobilities. The farmers was something similar like slaves in different forms. They fight for their rights by judge and sometimes a little bit more agressiv. The book describe for example the influence of the french revolution (ideas) and short government of Napoleon here.

that sounds like a good book, but a seriously sad subject, like serfs and kinda the homestead act here in USA and an acre and a mule for every freed slave after the civil war in the 1860s, the rich mans' war and the poor mans' fight....all politically run to benefit the rich. I hate politics and the rich and the powerful. they all for they selves. sorry, street slang. they are all for themselves. see, I be a college grad too, just a gal from Gary, Indiana. nothing special. all that old slave crap is still ongoing in a lot of countries. can't everyone just do they own work and leave others be? and try to do good? and stay out of other peoples' business? don't they have dishes to do or grass to cut or a kid to play catch with? I don't understand. war just for the sake of grown up boys wanting to play war and then sending our youth out like little plastic soldiers to do their maneuvers as if they are 5 and at home playing on the floor with they soldier toys. damn. all I'm sayin is give peace a chance.

Yes, I have a son and as i was younger i forbid my brother to play with war toys. But when i have my son I get the opinion that you can`t prevent a boy to be interest in war games. If you forbid them the toys the find a branch or something else to play war. so I think it is very important to speak and discuss what war means.

I'll bet a visit to a veterans' hospital ward would do the trick.

ReginaRegi9 Wednesday, November 9, 2011 10:49:40 AM

It seems to be a good idear. But here exist no special veterans hospital and injured soldiers back from afganistan or former jugoslawia are not so much ( glad for us). The old veterans from the second world are now dead or very old. Most time they never asked about they remember from that time. But I am now sometimes heard, that the old men dreamed in their last years often from that times.
Here in our village very much families comes as refugees after the second world war and build a house here. Now the old people are pensioners and often old times come back. My father who was a child (14 years old, when the war ended) told me 2 years before he died, his remembers of the end of the war in Mecklenburg (germany ) where the russians come. In the years before he never told one word about.

Lots of Post Traumatic Stress Disorders from all the trauma the soldiers, especially infantry, saw in the wars. Messes them up emotionally at the least, if not also physical injuries. My caretaker is an old Viet Nam Vet on disability, lots of stress from that time. Has told me stories, hard to accept war was so hard for them. Maybe peace will come.

the memory of the garden that you had will always be a positive company .

Kathy BoulierICU109 Friday, November 11, 2011 6:39:14 AM

yes, dear, but so so sad I only have pictures to comfort me. doesnt even look like husband coming back to Michigan. He is working at fort Knox now, construction. I'm no longer interesting to him, I don't get out and go and do and see and visit and run like he likes to. I am a stay home computer and read kind of gal. he's probably going to move on. i'm very depressed about losing my whole sense of home with him being the last string cut to it. My only challenge now is working on new techniques and learning photoshop 7. may get the CS5 version where you pay $35 a month with a year committment. I can handle that with my Social Security, but first going to learn all I can on this PS 7. Still at PaintDotNet, it is so familiar to me after doing over 3,000 composites. What does one do when one is grieving and lonely, keep busy at something. I'm trying hard. thank you for your lovely comment Antonio!

ReginaRegi9 Friday, November 11, 2011 6:45:22 PM

Hey Kathy, I believe the achive of Antonio is a good one. And your idear to learn something new is very good too. i seems that you have in time no work, hope it will goes better for you. I think to be depressed when someting important ends is normal. I believe it need a individual time to work with it and to begin a new live.
May be you should do more with real persons around you.
I wish you the best.

Kathy BoulierICU109 Wednesday, November 16, 2011 4:46:55 AM

Yo, Regina!! Husband will be home for Christmas!! Looks like my pleas didn't fall on deaf ears after all. Seems if you work at something or on someone long enough and well enough, your dream will come true. Gonna work real hard not to mess this up. cross your fingers and say a prayer for me!

ReginaRegi9 Thursday, November 17, 2011 3:16:04 PM

I think on you.smile
