CLEAVER: Thoughts from the Cleavers
Dr. Tony Cleaver
Merry Christmas from Jerrie Sue and Tony at Hallelujah House in Ding Dong 2023!
A few random thoughts that are interesting to us about our time now:
• Jerrie Sue now lives with an octogenarian since Tony’s birthday.
• We are only now writing the correct date of 2023 on our checks.
• Our children chide us for writing checks.
• Correspondence regarding Medicare part A, B…XYZ is required but not interesting reading.
• Someone who is illiterate and oblivious to English thinks up the names for new drugs.
• Information regarding burial plans comes without our request to our email.
• Cryogenic interment is an idea whose time has not yet come for us.
• Our friends are getting as old as we are.
• We must find younger and stronger friends to serve as our pallbearers.
• We should have gotten married earlier; we would be on the 60th not 59th anniversary.
• Our marriage is so much fun — we have not yet run out of things to talk about.
• We have fun with our missteps, mishearing, and misplacing things.
• The receipt from Walmart from Jan. 8 refuses to be located, even with great search.
• The right hand and slower lane is the best choice for driving.
• Don’t ask if we remember you, just tell us your name!
• It is surprising how suddenly naps sneak up on you when you sit still.
There are also other good things:
• God Most High continues to fulfill His purpose for us.
• Christianity is real.
• The Bible is true.
• Listening to God is better than telling Him our plans.
• The Decalogue (10 Commandments) is a wonderful guide and pathway to life.
• The Sermon on the Mount is highly personalized to our situation.
• Christian friends marvelously always surround us.
• If we could choose a family, we could not choose a better one than we have.
We wish for you all the good that peace brings to your family for the coming year of 2024!
