Stand up for Yourself
There comes a time in life when you get old enough to really speak your mind. Maybe this isn't something that you would have done when you were younger.
This has happened to me. Once a quiet (when controversy, Gabby the rest of the time) I shunned to not get involved. I was afraid of what would happen or how someone might feel. Now it isn't that I don't care it's is just something comes over me and I have to speak my mind. Much of this came into play when my Parents were in the hospital and they were going to be treated right and with dignity.
It is not that I am that ol' grumpy woman. I am happy with myself inside so therefore I am at peace. All that goes on around me it only here for a time.
I see it this way nobody knows what you are thinking if you don't let them know. Women's rights these days are under attack. Are you just going to let the Governor, Senators and Representatives steal our rights. If we do it may come a time when being a woman will be back to caveman days. Doesn't make you want to scream that men make more money than women for the same job?
So slowly get yourself to speak up for yourself. Here are a few ways to get started.
- If your order food and don't like it let them know. Don't pay for something that you don't like. This can be done nicely.
- If somebody cuts in line before you, "Excuse me the back of the line is (and point).
- Your boss is asking you to do more than you can do. Ask him if it can wait until you get other jobs completed.
- Your children are actin up, let them know. Explain, talk to them.
- Walk with your head held high! You are a WOMAN!
- A wonderful article to read Learn to Stand Up for Yourself

Spring Fever
Cannot wait to get started outside. Here are some things I want to do this year. Also a pic of our backyard today in the Spring Time.
There were some beautiful cardinals so I sneaked out to take pics but they were too smart for that. Here is today March 24, 2013.

My New Blog
Formally I was My Eclectic Loft but it didn't do well at all. Here goes another one after my heart writing.
I love vintage and I love writing. I will do both here. I will talk about vintage items.
Enjoy the day.

Berry Whine: Geneology
Berry Whine: Geneology: I have a great love for Geneology. Searching for my family from England has informed me so much as to who our family is today. From time ...
2nd Amendment
Berry Whine is not a political blog; however from time to time I will bring up a topic to see how you feel.
So much is happening in America now it is hard to keep up with what is the latest topic.
Our house is a firm believer of the 2nd Amendment and we own a gun. How do you feel about the probable new gun laws. Background search, smaller clips, etc.
By the way Gabby Gifford's words (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/gabby-giffords-senate-gun-control-hearing-report-article-1.1251013 ) yesterday were all inspiring. Hope you agree.
How do you feel? Please keep posts clean.

The Aflac Duck
I was so sad when the Aflac duck fractured his beak. He truly is the love of my life.
Anything that makes an adult stick a spring clothespin in her mouth and walk around, "Aflac" is serious about the Aflac duck.
At one time I had an Aflac duck that when squeezed said, "Aflac." Oddly enough he came up missing at work. I was distraught.
There is a FB page that you can keep up with the Aflac duck and send him a get well card. https://www.facebook.com/aflacduck/app_103502203153346
Stop by when you have time to send him a card, it will be appreciated.
