7-13-2016 11:14am:  I am almost 40.  Can't believe it!  Who would have thought that being almost 40 feels like this?  Aches and pains.  Curse the aches and the pains!  And the knowing that I can't turn back the clock and be 30 anymore, or be 20, or 10!  There is no going backwards just upwards.   :(

I saw an article a few days ago that the oldest woman alive died at 113 years old.  Can you believe that?  Can you imagine living to be 113?  Not many people live past 100!  I don't think I will live past 100.

I am grateful to be alive.  I love my kids!  I hope to be alive many more decades yet.  And I hope I live to become a great granny.  I smile at the thought of how my grand kids will look like someday.   :)

7-13-2016 11am: It's mid July.  I'm avoiding thinking about the inevitable.  September.  Because once September rolls around... it's back to school for the kids and the 9-month routine ensues.  I feel like summer is a breath of fresh air.  It's slow paced and I feel freer.  Something about the sun and the warmth and the green grass and leaves that makes me feel so much more alive and free.  I love summer.  I really love summer.  Summer is the best.  I love you, summer!

Nicely written. Thanks for sharing. I saw a whole bunch of jackfruits on Sunday. Thought of buying it but it was too much for myself.

Jackfruits are the best.  You could've bought a few and sent them to me!

Lychees
by Lilly

Lychees,
Where do I begin?
You and I go way back to that time when
I found the Refugee Camps in Thailand
You came to me when I was only a butterfly
Seven trips around the sun
Ready to savor the world as the world was new

How should I tell you all the ways I love you?

Your home is where the sun shines bright
Where the ocean is close
You are as sweet as you are white
When I peel you open
There you are
A true beauty!

Your white juicy flesh screams, Eat me!
And I do!

I love your generosity!
Your juice squirting all over
Spreading your love
Dripping your honey

Please, lychees, please don’t ever leave me!
Once a year is such a long wait to see you again
I suffer without you!
Do you not feel my pain?
Say you’ll stay by my side
For all the days of my life

My Jackfruit
by Lilly

My jackfruit, oh my jackfruit, how sweet art thou
Your roots lie where the sun never dies
How enormous and spiky you look
But your orange flesh screams of the tropics
You are succulent and so sweet
Like honey, I can’t get enough of you

My jackfruit, oh my jackfruit, how wonderful art thou
My cravings for you can only be satiated once every blue moon
Such a long time to taste you again
And then, like a feather, you fly away and are gone!
Do you not know just how wonderful you are?
Why must you leave my side and only come to me
Every blue moon?

My jackfruit, oh my jackfruit, you are everything I ever dream of
In a fruit
Please don’t leave my side
Stay with me until the day I die

And other times the words you use all the time slips from your mind too when you need them most, for some odd reason.  Sometimes I forget people's names that I see every day.  Memory loss.  Scary!

:2funny: :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: anyone who thinks like this is  :idiot2: :idiot2: because it's like a threat of stomping some hmong men's pride and ego.

Ambition and success in a hmong woman is attractive.

By saying the above... you yourself have become attractive...  ^-^

Do you ever have those moments where you know a certain word you want to use to get a certain point across but that word just won't come out? 

Here's mine right now:  the word I'm looking for means to slowly direct someone...I can't even think/type right now...not direct.  To change someone's opinion or though or lead to a different idea.  Argh.  Something like that.

Yup, that happens to me too.  I think it's knowing the word's meaning but not using it enough in practice so then when you need it, it doesn't come easily to you.

iPads (and iPhones) have good internal systems... my only thing with them is there is no Back button.  Super annoying that that feature is lacking.  You have to double-tap on the Home button to access your previous screens.   >:(

Things Hmong guys hate...

1. Hmong girls who date non-Hmong guys.
2. Professionally successful Hmong girls
3. Admitting they're wrong
4. Acknowledging that he's not in his prime
5. Getting labeled as old fashioned
6. Responsibiliti es (bills, taking care of kids, washing dishes, taking out trash, etc)

Hung_Low and Trouble are driving along when they see a wounded skunk on the side of the road. They stop, Hung_Low gets out, picks it up, and brings it into the car.

Hung_Low:  Look, it's shivering, it must be cold. What should I do?
Trouble:  Put it between your legs.
Hung_Low:  What about the smell?
Trouble:  Hold its nose.

LMAO!   :2funny:
