Daddy's Birthday..


Today my Daddy would be 94 years old if he was alive. I don't want to live to be 94 and I am sure he did not want to either. Living to 94 when you are 30 sounds pretty good but if you are in your 50's, 60's, or 70's and not feeling so great, living till you are 94 does not sound like such a good deal... Here is a picture of my Daddy's only three boys. Out of these 3 men only 2 Powell boys were born. I figure there is still a chance for Gilbert and Clayton to have another Powell off spring but they would need to hurry...

I know this is not likely considering they would have to find younger women....I don't think their wives need to worry...and I do love my brothers but finding other women would not be so easy for them...They do have that weight issue as most of us do. This would not necessarily turn off a younger woman but it does kind of have the same effect as it does on an old dog, it's just a lot of effort to leave the porch.
Maybe we had just better be happy with what we have...As Rhea King says, 'It is, what it is.'

I do believe God does not give you more than you can handle. but some days he gives you all you can handle...There has been many nights I have gone to bed at the end of my day and said,'Well nothing else bad will happen to me today because I can not handle one more thing today.'...This morning I woke up that way...I am sure God will not lay one burden on me today...
