SNOW IN MISSISSIPPI

Well it is snowing here in north Mississippi. The forecast predicts 1 to 2 inches. If it is snowing in Mississippi/The South then "H E double hockey sticks" must have frozen over or because Ex-President Bill Clinton is in Tupelo tonight. The south does not get snow. My mom is convinced the world is coming to an end because of all the freaky things that happen (not Bill). It sure is pretty coming down but my boys are about to have heart attacks if we do not get to go to the movies tonight. My husband is out of town so I have dates with the 2 most handsome boys on earth. "My boys". After we moved from VA several years ago we got rid of ALL the snow equipment. So if we get snowed in come look for me in a few days if I am not heard from...... ;-(

Checked my e-mail & had this in my box. I have always loved this poem.
The Poem
I knelt to pray but not for long, I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work For bills would soon be due.
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer, And jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done My soul could rest at ease.....
All day long I had no time To spread a word of cheer
No time to speak of Christ to friends, They'd laugh at me I'd fear.
No time, no time, too much to do, That was my constant cry,
No time to give to souls in need
But at last the time, the time to die
I went before the Lord, I came, I stood with downcast eyes.
For in his hands God! held a book; It was the book of life.
God looked into his book and said 'Your name I cannot find
I once was going to write it down... But never found the time!
