Numbers

Today is hubby and I anniversary, 22nd day, 24 years 🙂 I think we chose this day because it worked with our schedules at the time. Later I figured out 22 ended up being meant for us, 2 kids brought to this marriage and 2 kids we had together. 🙂 Our address for most of the marriage was 213, 2 = us 1 = daughter 3 = boys 🙂 Then it became 1014, 1 0=we are tied together 1 = him and I, 4 = 4 kids…

Memories, Good with the bad

Good-family get togethers 🙂 Bad-In my memories on FB, the day I heard my dad died from a battle with cancer. I remember sitting at our kitchen nook with the boys eating, hubby and the daughter were overseas deployed, I was no longer working at the store, felt really lost, numb. Boys were great even though had few memories, so just as lost as I was in showing emotion. I knew it was going to…

Scored A Win

Of course, I got hubby a cart to pull behind his mower, and this was there marked WAY down, and he liked also and saves us work in the front with pavers and such and the back oh the back. Tractor Supply Co. for the win! So I got him a father’s day present he could use for once, and I scored 🙂

Day Out

The daughter had business in town, we had lunch then hubby and I went to a town over to get him some good work boots. We also decided to see the Oz museum across the street from the boot place Vanderbilt’s. I don’t take many pics anymore, and my phone was close to being dead, plus I figured we would see it again, they say they change the displays often, hard for me to take photos I was busy…

Really Missing the Pond

We walked in at the halfway point and sat on a bench watching them work, slowly. Been at it since January, guess the damn needs fixed by regulation. They had to cut many trees down, sad face. They also have the parking area blocked so have to park on an off road place. Hubby had surgery recently so we waited to walk but it was suppose to be fixed already. Many jobs around town and weather kept…

First Movie- JAWS

I was only 3 years old! My dad and my first stepmom took me, I bet they didn’t have a sitter. It never made me afraid of the water, I lived at the pool until Jr. High. Maybe because I never lived close to the ocean, perhaps. Maybe that is where I got my adventurous side from ? I love adventure. I tend to not watch scary movies by myself. I prefer comedy and action. I assume we went to the movies…

FUNNY Stats

I was looking at my stats, which I do a lot. They are interesting, plus, at one time in my 20s going to college I was going to switch my major to Statistics because the college I was going to didn’t have my program and I liked the college and where I was at. Unfortunately, the studying and early morning class did not work for me. I also was taking the class with my soon to be ex and I just didn’t…

Word of the Day-SONGWRITER

Paper moons Trying this out, good post by a great blogger that blogs a lot of interesting stuff. I didn’t know what to put for this one. I have never wrote or thought about song writing, use to do poetry but nothing that would make a song. In fact I would write song lyrics out because I loved them. My 6th grade teacher had us listen to a record, yeah , and write the lyrics for handwriting…

My Wordpress Anniversary

Things have sure changed since then. Might be my brain, older age, or just plain hate the changes, lol. I am glad to still be a part of WordPress. I have tried others and this is what I like most. 🙂

We Found Lazy

I happened to turn my computer on with FB, the animal shelter had a pic and the years looked good so went to see. He seemed to recognize Jessup. A stray, years matched and the marks were right. So yes we took him home. 🙂 (Even if it is not him makes Jessup happy, but I truely believed it is him, many times they would show pictures and no, not same markings) Been missing from our home 2016 when…

Happy Mother's Day

My Aunt sent this to me on FB, a special lady, wish I could be there for her, like she was there for me in the early days like a mom. She and I had great talks through the years, just drifted a part since 2012. Sucks but distance does that, thank goodness for technology. 🙂 I should have sent a card, she likes mail. Better put a sticky note to do that. 🙂 Late is better than never, right. Everyone…

Company :)

The youngest son and his friend came to see us for a day before heading to her home in Texas. A long drive from state of Washington, but they are young and both can drive a stick, unlike me, lol. At least they share the time driving, I guess she has a more comfy car than his but he wanted his little sports car, men, lol. He basically hijacked her time off from the Navy, lets stop by my parents’,…

DOPPELANGER

One of the prompts in Jan Romes book I read, you are in a grocery store produce aisle and someone mistaken you for someone else. Funny things is, I worked in a grocery store for 20 years and people were always getting me and the produce lady, Keri, and I mixed up. lol. We went to high school together, she was 2 years before me, and no one ever got us mixed up then. But working in the store…
