Rue the beautiful
who lose their cherished treasure
to the curse of man.

ABOUT ME
Hello. To various folks I am Neat’nee, Mom, Grandma Neta, Gramma, Aunt Neta, Aunt Noni, Aunt Neno, and Aunt Neto (lots of varieties from little nieces and nephews). To some I’m more like “Didn’t you used to be my teacher?” or “Don’t I know you from someplace?” To you, perhaps, I am a Fellow Blogger. Not “fellow” like a male or a guy, but “fellow” like a companion or an adventurer. I would choose to be Grandma Blogger, and have you pull up a chair, my website before you, while I tell you of some days of yore. I have experienced life much differently than most of you. It was and is a good life. I hope to share nuggets of appreciation for those who have gone before me and those who come after me. By necessity you are among those who come after me and I will tell you of those who came before. Once upon a time in a little house on a prairie - oops, change that lest I commit plagiarism - and change that “house on the prairie” to “dugout on the prairie.” So my story begins...

Resting along the highway

Indeed it is very sad. Even if they go this route in rebellion it is sad. And some do not think they have a choice.
Poignant photo. The story could be practically anything in this world where lifestyles and break-down of the family is so rife. Makes me think. Thank you.
Very sad. Don’t you wish you had the money to help? That would be good for some but many do not want to follow boundaries of parents or others who would help. Such things are heart-breaking.
