To John's Obituary

http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/newsobserver/obituary.aspx?page=lifestory&pid=127525451

Now living in Youngsville. My occupation was International Import/Export Customs Regulations/Law for 26 years. Took a very early Retirement. Do need to find a part time job though. To much time on my hands.

Take it one day at a time.  

I have been through so much over the past 2 years including the death of my father, if you knew everything I've been through, you wouldn't believe it. The most important thing I've learned over the past 2 years is no matter what you have been through there is alway's hope and friendship.

Treat people the way you would want to be treated.

The picture of the kitty is Zoe Raine. Persian. See attachments. Updated Pictures Oct 22nd.

Hi Panthers, I agree with you, we do live in troubled times. I just think that by making a huge deal out of it when somebody from hollywood OD's and dies, we risk making it sound normal, and therefore desensitise everybody to the true horror of the situation. It just feels like tabloid reporting to me. On the other hand, that seems to be what everobody wants these days, so perhaps we get what we deserve. Water tends to seek it's own level. Have a great day. :) Yelena

I saw seagulls yesterday... a lot of them... First a couple of them at Brier Creek, then quite a few were at the Fairgrounds... So, ten days from yesterday, we shall see if that myth is true or not!

Thanks panther fan, imforjustice's posts always end up irritating me. I think he's one of the monday morning quarter backs that make outrageous statements every time a news article reports a police officer having to take any action.

Good morning, Panthers, great to hear from you (but that is AWFUL about the disc!!). I will email you soon. Hope you're doing okay.

Hey John!!!!!! How've ya been? Hows the babies????

I really do feel for her.People just need to leave her alone and let her get well or whatever it takes so she can see her kids.Afterall this is 3/4 of what is hurting her heart to begin with.

Gosh John, I didnt know that! I really hope things get better for you. :( I go to Garner Ortopedics for my knee (I need a knee replacement but too young for it now)

I deal with a pinched nerve here n there in the ole back.... that alone is a b!+ch! I cant imagine what your going thru.

Keep me posted, your in my thoughts.

hey!...you've got mail! :-)

Good morning GoPanthers!!!!

BIG SUPER BOWL/BIRTHDAY PARTY COMING UP!!!!!

Can't wait to see you.I hope you have a great weekend.

HUGS!! Take care of that back!!

WOW what beautiful pictures of your fish and tank!!! They are so peaceful and very relaxing to watch. I miss mine so much!!! Maybe in time we will get the tanks out again and set one up. *HUGS* Thank You for sharing!!!

Great pics John!! Those are beautiful fish!!

Hey John Panther, How is it going man....? Haven't heard from you in a while...... mail truck... in just a bit.

John - There was a new House on after the super bowl, but I fell asleep. My 13 year old said it was a good one...LOL

Please let me know how the surgery goes!!!

gentle cyber hugs that will not hurt your back

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUG}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Hi There Go!!! Let's have a painting party!!! I am with you on the working in the yard...love gardening, fruit trees, and flowers...hate not being out there in the Winter time. And boy nothing like home grown fruits and veggies Huh??? Hope you have a wonderful day!!! *HUGS* Keep me in touch about what we E mailed about Okay *wink*

John--Look at Zoe--Is she beautiful or what. I know she is rotten in that house. Spoiled? No I know you didn't do that. I will be emailing later and checking on that back. Take care until they get that surgery done. I will never get too big headaed that I have to give out autographs. Lordy. If I couldn't laugh at my mess ups I'd not make it. I'm glad to break the ice for the ones to come, and their turn will come..... Take care- I'll never forget the night you called me down at midnight when you were in CA. I was burning the keyborad and the midnight oil right by myself...

Hey John, Long time, the aquarium is beautiful--I love them but I couldnt keep a state fair goldfish alive--and we all know they come from Sharon Haris and are usually indestructable--oh well, so for now its just the dog and three cats

hey john!...hope you're feeling better and that you get a chance to enjoy this beautiful day! :-)

talk to ya soon :-)

I love to paint rooms but do enjoy paint by numbers...people love what I did in my kitchen and always wants me to come do their homes.

John , that aquarium looks like a lot of effort has been put into it. I don't have one, prolly never will cause I'm lazy, but I do appreciate a nice maintained micro-enviroment like you have there. Congratulations!

Yes I will keep you posted on my surgery. Hope your having a great day.

HUGS John - we need to get together soon in a small group that you will feel comfortable in...

Hey John, I had some errands to run.... sent you back an email.

Good morning John, I hope you have a great day. Your back any better?

Hey,John,I cut all my Monkey grass back this week.If you need any,let me know,cause now is the time to dig it up while it is short.I love your aquarium.I wish the pic would enlarge so I could use it as my background.

Good day to you and I haven't forgotten you email yet. I have been jammin on the keybords yesterday and today I'm catching up my work. I hope the back is treating you well today and it's a no pain day. Trust me, Those days are treasured when you get them....

Hey John - mail sent...:D HUGS

Hmm... Well, so much for the seagull theory!!!!!

hey john!...hope you're feeling better! :-)

Good morning John. Shine recommended Palmero's frozen pizza to me...it is yummy. It sounds like you had a great evening. It is nice that you had good family time.

This message is for "look to your right". I tried to respond to your message but I can't. I clicked on your ID and it won't go to your profile. Thanks for the offer on the Monkey Grass that was very nice of you but I'll pass on it. We already have some ourselves. Thanks anyway.

Heey John - Food Lion carries Palmero's. They have a veggie, a chicken and a pepperoni. I love them all. Shine knows good food.

Good morning John. Your special trees, the grafted ones, have they been fooled by this false spring? I hope not!

GM,Well if you ever need any,just let me know.I gave away 1/2 truck bed full,so far.

John, I am so glad the trees are OK. I saw on the weather that another cold snap is coming. My neighbor's peach tree is already blooming and will lose those blooms I bet.

I have had email problems all week!!

John - it cannot hurt to ask. It would help pass the time for sure, to be able to golo!!

HUGS

It is so windy - I bet a branch blew on the lines???

"... Honestly I type fast but today when I type fast hit the send button and it just sits there. LOL - really P*&^%S me off!" :)...when I saw that , as I can relate, I had a thought. Maybe it's your carriers way of enforced proofreading. ;) Lord knows, that's a skill I have yet to develope. Have a good day, and don't let this wind carry you away. man, it is blowing so hard here in Sanford at 4:30 pm, the roof on the trailer is rippling and I can hear gusts coming up out of the pasture and woodlot beside my home from far off. It's like a low steady roar that occasionally gets louder and louder. Hope this is the worse of it.

Go to your friends list. It's at the very bottom. Once you see that persons profile, remove the check from the box. Let me know if you have any problems. -Angela

Thanks for the message! I hope you weren't blown away yesterday! That wind was terrible! I agree with you about the drought. I've cut my water bill in half, but I know so many people aren't and we'll be in trouble before too long! I keep watching that drought meter go up and up! We need something! I hope you had a good weekend!

Wow, I can imagine. A phone call that says, "Don't panic, everything is under control"...as you smell smoke and hear sirens in the distance! These kinds of times are why I love having a scanner. I try and keep up with the power crews, the fire depts, the law...heck I used to even listen to the cam crews for some of the tv stations and radio stations years ago, but so many have gone trunked or cellular, it's a lot harder to keep up with them, for me anyway. News said there were a lotof fires around and a lot of power outages. We blinked a few times here, but never lost it. Several at work last night said they had no power for hours. I saw a humongus cedar tree that the winds brought down yesterday out on Lower Moncure rd. as I went to work. High winds like that worry me about as much as anything, especially at night. But, we do nothing positive with worry, so just quit worrin' and 'Keep on smilin'...like the song says! Have a Great Day and Week ahead.

hey john!...hope all is well with you this morning...according to the news article about the fires, the one in johnston co was very close to my house...first i've heard about it...go figure!

hope you have a great day...talk to ya soon! :-)

I cut my water bill in half. I used to pay about $31 per month and I think my last one was $13.50. I think if everyone would realize the severity of the situation and would actively conserve, we would be in a better situation. But there are people out there that just don't care or don't think it applies to them. Maybe we'll get through this drought eventually! I hope you're having a good week so far!

good morning john!...hope you're feeling better :-)

hope we get some rain today!

Oh, I most certainly agree with you! The first set of water restrictions should have been put in place many years ago. It would have cut down on the useless waste of water in the first place and made people start to think back then when we could have actually prevented this. I really don't think people realize that there's only so much water and once it's gone, we will have no more. There's no secret about it, it's a serious situation! I drive across Falls Lake quite often and it's sad! I grew up on Falls Lake and it has NEVER been that low and looked that pathetic!

Hey, Panthers, how are you feeling? Hope you're doing okay. I love the newest picture of Zoe--can't believe how big she's gotten!!

That IS big!! I have one that's 16 lbs though!! Very sorry to hear about your back; I hope you're being waited on hand and foot over there!!!

They said we could get as much as two inches of rain tomorrow! That would be awesome, not nearly what we need, but it's a start! It needs to rain slow and steady everyday for about a month straight to make a major difference! I hope you're having a great Tuesday! ~Melissa

Wow, that would be awesome if it ended up raining a lot on Sunday! I don't have any plans as of now except packing and that would be a perfect stay inside day! I don't think we're getting as much rain today as was predicted, but it did rain quite a bit last night! Maybe we'll put a small dent in our drought numbers by the end of the weekend... I heard that it would take 13-15 inches of rain by the middle of May to get us out of this drought but that the next three months are predicted to be the dryest on record... Great! The biggest drought we've seen in 800 years, so they say!

Hey, Panthers, I'm running a little crazy today but just wanted to check in on you and see if you're feeling any better now. ((HUGS))
