Look what Mama gave me!! She gave it to me, the Sat. after her party, when we visited her. Apparently I had a silver spoon too, given to me by our insurance man. Who knew I’d been born with a silver spoon in my mouth?? Not me!! And my fear of running out of t.p.,Continue reading “Silver Serve”

Baker Bound
Ok, here I am at the new (to me) nut ward, after 12 hours in the ER. In case you’re new, hi!! Welcome!! This is my 3rd? Baker Act.

More Mess
My 3rd Baker Act experience.
Tres
It’s Jan 6, 2022. First anniversary of the Capitol “Insurrection”. Not going into it much. Did you see the video of the capitol police opening the gates for the crowd?? That doesn’t fit the narrative of the angry crowd “storming the capitol.” Did you know the political prisoners have been in jail almost a yearContinue reading “Tres”
Great Grandmama
We picked up the girls on Christmas eve, and drove straight to Mama’s for family Christmas. We’ve celebrated on Christmas Eve, ever since I married Sweet Friend, in 1984. That way, our birth family celebration didn’t clash with in-law’s. And the system has worked great, thru all the different in-laws. The only fly in theContinue reading “Great Grandmama”
Lumbar Lesions, Later
Ok, remember when I fell Sept. 24, and the CAT scan showed the lesions on my spine? Then, I went to do the MRI, and the insurance hadn’t approved the contrast? Well, I don’t remember if I told you the second part, but anyhoo. I finally got it done, the 8th. Okay, whew, got itContinue reading “Lumbar Lesions, Later”
Life Leanings
I’m thankful for my life verse. Jeremiah 33:3 King James Version 3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. God gave Mama this verse for me, while she was praying, when I was 9 years old. We lived in Jupiter, Fl. Dad was pastorContinue reading “Life Leanings”
Granny Gratefulness
Granny is Mama’s mother. Mostly I’ll be talking about her, since Papa died before Sis was born, so I was still 7. Papa was a giant!! I think he was 6’2. Which isn’t really giant by today’s standards, but it was by our family’s!! And especially of mine, as a 7 yo! He was reallyContinue reading “Granny Gratefulness”
Formal Family
First I’ll write about being thankful for my nuclear family, and go on from there. I’m so thankful my parents were married! I had both parents in my home. What a blessing that is. (For the purposes of this post, I’m only gonna talk about the positive aspects of my Dad. And that they stayedContinue reading “Formal Family”
