LADY - OUR FRIEND

       Dog Pictures | Pet Dogs | Dog sense | Dog understanding |

Why would I tell you about our Friend Lady. Well if you read on I believe that you will also say that she was our very special friend.     It all started when she showed up at my shop. She was young, but full grown. She showed up at my shop with the door open and she came in slowly and cautiously. I stood quietly and talked to her softly. I gave her some water which she drank and she sat down like this for some time watching me work.    I got ready to go home and she followed me to my old van. I opened the door and she was sitting like this again and I said, "Don't you have some where to go home to. Do you want to go home with me?"                     She got up and into the old van, She came into the house with me and was quite as Beth, Russ and Brad all said hello. They said," She acts just like a little Lady." So from then on she was LADY. I asked  the neighbor about her the next day and he told me that she had been hanging around for a week or more.    A little background will help you understand more. Beth has had the heart arrhythmia problem since Birth. She has had five major Heart Attacks.    One of the very special incidents with Lady was when Beth was able to come home after her second attack.                    Dr.s instruction was bed rest, quiet, etc. Well the next morning we agreed that the boys go to school and I would go to work. If needed, I was five to ten minutes away.    So the boys and I said goodby and I looked down and said to Lady. Now Beth is not to get up and walk around the house, Now Lady, your job today is to keep her company and not let her walk around the house.    Lady walked over to a rug on the floor right  beside Beth's side of the Bed. The three of us said good bye and took our leave.    That evening, the boys were already home and met me telling me that Beth said that Lady did not leave except the two times Beth needed to go to the Bath room. She said that Lady moved ahead of her and sat it the middle of the hall way until Beth returned to the bed and Lady followed and sat down on the rug.                 Lady was always ready to go camping and we never had to call her back etc. Always acted like she knew what Beth needed and that was her duty.    Lady was like that most of the time. The only  time she was not was when our Thermostat on our furnace quit. Beth called our electrician. He looked at the thermometer and went downstairs to the furnace. As he came back up the stairs very rapidly into the living room where Beth and boys were watching TV. Lady had him by the leg. Lucky, no harm done, but apparently Lady felt protection was needed.    Yes, we miss her, She had been part of the family for 16 years. We wondered many times, was there more to this other than a loving pet? More About that Soon. However my absence has been working on this project. We have a big announcement coming soon. I can't tell you about it yet because you can not see it, but I can tell you this You need it. You want it.                   We have it.                                                          It is coming very soon because:                 we care for you at Petersen Enterprise                                                                        Sincerely,                                  Harley Petersen

I FEEL FINE!

| farm | humor | semi truck | Judge | Claiming injury | point a gun | WEB SITE    This is another one from my experience in working with my farm customers.    I stopped at Joe Andersen's farm one morning and  I asked him how his day in court turned out.               Joe decided his injuries from an accident were serious enough to take the trucking company who's truck caused the accident to court.    In court, the trucking company's lawyer questioned  Joe. "At the scene of the accident, didn't you say "I fine." And now you're claiming injury?"              Joe said,  "Well, let me explain,"    No need to explain. Just answer the question." At that point, the judge interrupted and allowed me to explain.              "Thank you, Your Honor,"  I said  . "I had just loaded Bessie into the trailer and was driving down the highway when this huge semi truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my truck right in the side. I was thrown  into one ditch and Bessie into the other. I was hurting real bad and didn't want to move. However, I could hear Bessie moaning, and I knew she was in trouble. Soon a high patrolman came up, walked over to Bessie, saw her extreme condition and shot her between the eyes to put her out of her  misery. Then he came across the road to me.          He had his gun in his hand, looked at me, and said, "Your cow was in such bad shape that I had to shoot her. How are you feeling?" Naturally I looked up, saw the gun and answered.    "I"'m fine, really, I'm fine.                 No, I'm not going to point a gun at you, because                  when you see it, you will know....     You need it.     You want it.                      We have it.                                                                 It is coming very soon because:            we care for you at Petersen Enterprise                                                           Sincerely,                             Harley Petersen

SAFE ?

| Pasture with Flowers | Barn in Background | Bundle of flowers | Bull with cows standing behind | WEB SITE    During my 18 years working as a Livestock nutrition representative, I saw a lot of rural scenes  like you will see below and I heard many fun stories.    I also learned a lot about life and how it is so similar to our lives. For example:    There was a young man from town on his way to pick up his date at her parents Farm House.  He noticed some beautiful wild flowers on the way and a thought came to him that his date might be impressed if he picked some and gave her a bouquet.                          He was pretty excited and intent on choosing the different flowers. He was so intent, that he did not notice the animals moving in behind him.  He did not have many yet to make a beautiful Bouquet. He kept on picking the flowers as the herd was quietly closing in.                        He heard something like a sniffer, turned around  and here was a Bull and a heard of cows behind him.                    He look the other way and saw the rancher leaning on the fence. He shouted to the rancher "is that Bull safe." The rancher said," O OOHH yaw!  I would say that Bull is very safe, but I don't know how safe you are."                        Are you in a new place in life or are you running into new things, some of which are new  and strange to you? Do you feel like it is over whelming sometimes?    I remember when I started out on the internet in 1999, I was very green as many were even though I had my first computer in 1983. We used it for financial book keeping and writing in place of the old typewriter. I also had abut twenty five years experience in sales work.    I finely joined a group by chance.The developer and leader of that group was very experienced.  He was a very good teacher nd coach. He is still very active online today and I appreciate him. We have a big announcement coming soon. I can't tell you about it yet because you can not see it, but I can tell you this You need it. You want it.                   We have it.                                                          It is coming very soon because:                 we care for you at Petersen Enterprise                                                                        Sincerely,                                  Harley Petersen

Sales on Top ?

Two bowling teams, one made up of accountants and one made up of salespeople, chartered a double-deck bus for a weekend of  a bowling tournament in Atlantic City.                                   The accountants rode in the bottom of the bus. The salespeople rode on the top level. The team made up of accountants down below was having a great time when one of them realized that there was no noise coming from up above.    One of the accountants went up to investigate. When he got to the top, he found all the salespeople frozen in fear, staring straight ahead at the road, and clutching the seats in front of them with white knuckles.                                He asked, "What's going on up here? We're having a great time down below."    One of the salespeople looked up and answered, "Yeah, but you've got a driver!"    Do you know that most people have a hard time believing in something that they cannot see, hear, feel, taste or smell. Right!    Ummmm, how about driving in the center lane of a four lane Blvd. and coming into an intersection at about 35-40 miles per hour. Most of the time you can not see the lights for the cross traffic.OH!                     If you continue, is that believing in something you can not see.or are you trusting that the Signal Lights are working correctly?    Driving through, are you believing that everyone is going to obey the red light which is supposed to be in their Signal Light? Can you see what they are thinking? Are you trusting that they will all stop. No mistakes running into you? We have a big announcement coming soon. I can't tell you about it yet because you can not see it, but I can tell you this You need it. You want it.                   We have it.                                                             It is coming very soon because:                  we care for you at Petersen Ministries.com                                                                        Sincerely,                                Harley Petersen

Seeing is Believing?

Seeing is Believing? | Flying | Excited | Training | Stinson | Cessna | Bonanza | Types of Airplanes | www.ibourl.com/1f53    I have always been excited about Airplanes since I was real young. My uncle had a Stinson 105 based at a grass runway airport about 1 mile south of my parents Fruit Ranch in California.      My Uncle Art took the time to show me most all of the airplane and took me for a ride many times during my pr-teens and early teens.    I was so interested in airplanes that I would even take a date with me to an airport and stop and watch the activity.    Fast forward from High School Graduation 1955 to 7-7-1973 (my birthday) Beth said, "well maybe you should learn to fly and see if it really is something you want to do."    That is all it took,  I had my Airman Certificate in a couple of months. This Cessna 150 is almost like the one I received my training.in. It would cruse at about100 air miles per hour.    I had joined a flying club in Blair where we lived in Blair Nebraska. The flying club owned a 150 much like the one above and also a Cessna 182. This was a four passenger Airplane. I would cruse about 145 (?) air miles per hour.     Then later as I became a Sales Manager over five states working with our Disturbers of Farm equipment an airplane was a very handy tool for this amount of traveling. So a friend of mine and I bought this Bonanza    Many times I have had somebody riding with me in our airplane. If this is their first ride in an airplane they can be pretty Nervous.    I remember one who watched me read and check through the take off check list and said to me,"If you have to read the instructions before take off, please take me back to the hanger." This was not a joke, he really was terrified.    If I had a rider with me for their first ride, I would usually ask the rider to put their hand on the control wheel and instruct them to turn it a little. Now when they feel the pressure, they begin to release that the air we live in and breath is something real even thought we can not see it.    Is this developing faith in something that you can not see, smell, taste, hear or feel? Sometimes I have to remind myself that there is. We care at Petersen Ministries Sincerely Harley Petersen

Which Shingle?

|

Shingles | Shingle Photos | Humor |     I started writing this for humor, but I have had a very mild case of the shingles and I would like to show you that the shingles can be a very serious condition. Bottom photo is graphic, but I feel that younger people need to know about this and to take precaution. The older we get, the more likely a person will get it. What is the shingles? It is the dormant virus which caused the Chicken Pox which comes out through the nerves at a later date.   One of the most beneficial things we can receive from IBO is learning how to write. One of the things I discovered, is that we get into bad habits and not giving a full description (words) to give a complete (picture) to the other person. (Poor Guy).                      A man walked into a doctor's office, and the receptionist asked him what he had. "Shingles," he said. So she took down his name, address and medical insurance number and told him to have a seat.                       After a wait of about fifteen minutes, he started walking down the hall and a nurse's aide came almost running after him and asked him what he had. "Shingles," he said!.    She took him into an examination room proceeded to gather more information for the records. Then she took down his height, weight and complete medical history and told him to wait in the examining room.                 A half-hour later a nurse came in and asked him what he had. "Shingles," he said. So she gave him a blood test, a blood pressure test and an electrocardiogram. Then she told him to take off all his clothes and wait for the doctor.                  An hour later the doctor came in and said, "what is it that you have?" "Shingles," he said.    The doctor said, "Where?"              He said, "Outside in the truck. Where do you want them?" Sincerely, Harley Petersen Website

ONE OF LIFE'S LESSONS

Some of you know that I am a Pastor. Not as one which you know who Pastors a Church, but I am an Evangelist. In this position I work for churches who want me to come in for one or several special messages or some kind of help.    One day I sat in on a Bible Study Class. The class consisted of very young to very old people.                 As this Pastor was finishing up on a teaching about forgiving one's enemies, he wanted to drill the meaning of the lesson home so He asked for a show of hands of those who were willing to forgive their enemies. About half of the class raised their hands.    He continued on reteaching some of the material and then He asked again, "Are you are willing to forgive your enemies." This time, 80 percent of his congregation raised their hands. Not giving up, the minister continued for fifteen more minutes.                 When he again asked for a show of hands, all members--except--one raised their hands.    "Mr. Jones," asked the Pastor, "are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"    "I don't have any."    Pastor said, "Mr. Jones that is very unusual. I know you are eight-nine years old. Would you please come down to the front and explain to all of us how you have lived so long without making a single enemy in the world?"                     Mr. Jones shuffled up to the front, holding each pew to support his balance and slowly said "It's easy. I've outlived every one of them." If you enjoy Humor, we have many in our web site! I really enjoy the humor page myself. I had others help me build this page for your enjoyment.
