For Kathie

To My Granddaughter

By Ernestine Cobern Beyer

Kathie's eyes are bright, alive,
Her manner, blithely charming,
And though her years are only five,
Her wisdom is disarming.

When she, at times, invades my room,
I leave this peaceful place;
Astride Imagination's broom,
I soar with her in space.

Within my own she lays her hand,
And with a compass true,
She guides me to that happy land
Which long ago I knew.

Contemporaries, she and I!
For though my hair is white,
When Kathie blithely passes by,
She leaves me young and bright!

*Gotta windshield?

Many thanks, too...

to Dale Ahlquist, for the okay to
post his book on G. K. Chesterton:)

You know, all the times I've been
posting these books- I never thought
to ask...

Geez~

I also want to point out as was
mentioned before in a prior
post, (link)- that Mr. Alquist is the
president of the American Chester-
ton Society- linked to the right...

& that he is host, along with Chuck
Chalberg, of EWTN's series, G. K.
Chesterton: The Apostle of Common
Sense, which can be listened to from
the EWTN Audio Library- an excellent
service- also linked on the right.

I have to say again- I love the EWTN
AL, as I can listen to their programs
while I'm on the computer. There are
only a few linked here- but there is
also a direct link to the complete index
of programs for your convenience.

Nick's had an incredibly
lousy week, (link) although
he is thankfully receiving
the treatment he needs-
sans the insurance he needs.

& thanks to Nick's friend
Tiffany, (link) for keeping
us posted.

Oh... ewww!

But it's still

kind of funny... (link:p)

Too incredibly neat!

Terry over @ NCR's
Blog-of-the-Month-
(don't remember which
month, Terry... sorry!):

Abbey-Roads (link)

received a lengthy
response (link) to a
comment he wrote to
EWTN's Joanna Bogle
on her fascinating new
blog from England:

auntie joanna writes...(link)

Joanna & her husband James
host EWTN's informative
& interesting series:

Catholicism: The Heart of
History, (link)

which will be included in
a new category to the right-
direct links to some of EWTN's
excellent programs offered
from their audio library.

Heheheh...

A request from

Eric Scheske from the

The Daily Eudemon (link)...

I admit nothing!

Ok, I'll 'fess up-

Geez, you're tough!

Well, I used to read quite
a bit and finish everything.
Now it's kind of a different
story- mostly due to the
fact that reading puts me
to sleep- no matter how
fascinating the subject-
which never used to hap-
pen at all- I used to read
well into the night.

Also, lousy vision is a factor
these days-

I've been told that audio
books are an excellent
alternative-

& then there's always the
LARGE PRINT option.

Which reminds me, I'm due
for new specs...

Thanks for asking.

Congratulations to

one of this blog's
favorite writers-

Nightfly (link)

& his

Ladybug:)

*sniff!

I feel like a proud
auntie~

And speaking of

aunties & writers...

The EWTN library is a wonderful

the series that I've missed, or
want to hear again...

& it's getting permanently
