Medical Records
What would you do if your doctor or the hospital lost your medical records? This would be quite a hassle don't you think. Do you know right off had if you had all your shots; sorry if this sounded like how one would speak of a pet. You would have to know from memory what meds or whatever that you take if anything. Just think of all the tests that one may have to re-take and whatever else your doctor may need and want to make sure his patient is taken care of properly. Hope this never happens to anybody.

The Hummingbird
One morning while getting a cup of coffee I spotted my early morning friend who I named Hummy. Hummy seemed to always fly right up to the window and just look at me saying "Is the feeder full?" then he glides over and still fluttering his wings feeds on the nectar water. He flies back to the window and flutters in a way of saying thank you and saying see you in the morning as usual. After he leaves a few more little birdies come and have some and some succeed, and some do not succeed. It's just fun watching.

What does Election Day mean?
So, what does Election Day really mean? I know it is a day that one elects a president every four years and also as we elect senators and representatives as well. It is a matter of making a choice of who one wants to vote for and achieve a better way of living day to day. There will be promises made in order to get your vote, but for me it is hard to believe that they actually keep their whole promises that they make to get elected to whatever job they seek from president to senator to representatives. Vote!

The Indian Chief
There was an old Indian chief that always seemed to be sitting on an old park bench located way into the park where only a few go. The path is mainly for bikers and walkers who want to forget they are in the city. One afternoon this walker decided to go up to the chief and ask him why he comes here. The Indian chief stated "This is where my tribe first settled. I come here to think and visit and wait." It is a beautiful area for there are wildflowers and plenty of trees. Finally, the chief will rest.

What is a Thesaurus?
Does anyone really use a print thesaurus anymore? To be honest I do not have one at the present time for it fell apart long ago, and these books if you want a good one are kind of expensive for me right now. For me this is a very helpful book for many reasons for one I would use one for more tautograms for I am mainly using my memory, and I seem to be repeating a lot of words over and over even if I think they are used in a different way. I could use a new one.

The Cowboy
There was this old-style cowboy living down the road just a smidge. When I would go walking by his farm that had a few horses and a few other animals he would always offer me a ride on his horse. This old cowpoke would tell stories that would make you wonder if it was true or not. He once said that he rode for the Pony Express right before the it ended and became a part of mail delivery history. This old cowboy could share a yarn with the best of them; now I wish he would've written them down.
