Life is an unfinished symphony. God holds the score in His Hands. Sometimes my life is a cymbal crash, and sometimes it is pages of counting rests. But always, He is the Conductor. (...and I hear the Coda He's written is out of this world!)
Geesh! I'm verbose!

Quotes that give me hope!
“A female must encounter, on all sides, an inveterate prejudice, founded on a misconstruction of the scriptures.” (pp. 63-64).
from the autobiography of Ellen Brown Hickox Stewart,
my thrice-great-grandmother.
"This is beautiful work--simple, genuine, redemptive. It shouldn't seem radical... but it is. It shouldn't even be necessary to say 'men and women are equal...' but it is. Hopefully, in another ten years, the saints of CBE will end gender inequality and put themselves out of jobs. Until then, may we all live in discomfort amid a booming choir of white men, while the church is pregnant with women who are ready to lead and write and preach but still get funny looks or cold shoulders."
-Shane Claiborne endorsing Christians for Biblical Equality

Arise then...women of this day! Arise, all women who have hearts! Whether your baptism be of water or of tears! Say firmly:
"We will not have questions answered by irrelevant agencies, our husbands will not come to us, reeking with carnage, for caresses and applause. Our sons shall not be taken from us to unlearn all that we have been able to teach them of charity, mercy and patience. We, the women of one country, will be too tender of those of another country to allow our sons to be trained to injure theirs."
- Julia Ward Howe

That was so funny!
I honestly cannot imagine snow like that.
And what is a buckeye exactly?
*sits primly and smooths skirt*
I believe a buckeye is a spot on a potato.
Though I'm still not clear what was spelled in the snow.
A BUCKEYE is the state tree of Ohio and the school mascot for Ohio State. The music you heard is the march that is played as the OSU marching band (also called TBDBITL - The Best Damn Band In The Land) spells out a "Script Ohio". The bit at the end is the sousaphone player dotting the "i"...
It's a Buckeye thing. I was in the band (no, I didn't dot the "i" because that's only for sousaphone players...)
Ever glad to educate the uninformed... :)
Deb
it looked like an "O-h-n-o". Honestly. Maybe the snowblower needs a better choreographer.
And Princess, that's not much snow. One could easily get by with a shovel for that snow. :^o
Thanks Deb for ATTEMPTING to educate the masses about the hallowed and venerable traditions of THE ohio State University. It's gonna always be a long slog...
Some folks just don't get it.
No worries about me! I say:
AMEN SISTER!
GO Bucks! --O--H
QP
I-O!
