Lost Family

We lost a member of our family, last month and he will be sorely missed.  My brother in law, Don passed away with cancer, and we have a hole in our family.

Can you Imagine?

Those were the days when I could look good in my clothes.  Now, I just try to hide in my clothes, with all the fat and wrinkles, I have accumulated.  When I look in the mirror, I can't see anything that resembles this person here.  Being old is not funny, but I guess it's better than being dead.

Prayers Please.....

Our family has another person, who is experiencing health problems.  This comes in the form of cancer and I'm sure you all know what that means.  My sister's husband, has been diagnosed with throat cancer, and is beginning his journey, through all the processes and treatments, needed to eventually remove the tumor. 
Being unable to eat very well, he has already lost a large amount of weight, with the average of 4lbs. a week.  It's a good thing he had the extra weight to lose, but it has made him very weak.
Please, lift him and my sister up in your prayers, for healing and a quick recovery.......I thank you so much! :)

Musical Instruments

Our local high school marching band, is breaking all the records, lately.  They've even been invited to go to London, England to perform.  I'm sure all the parents are in a dizzy, trying to get things together, to finance the trip.  They, will need to make sure their child's instrument, has all the extra parts and accessories, needed to have a successful performance.  They can go to  musicfriends  online store and shop, plus get the items shipped to their home address, for quick service.  Check out the link in this post for all you music product needs.

It's On To College

Well, here my step-daughter is all grown up and off to school, to learn massage therapy.  We are doing our best to help her in any way we can.  Good luck Amanda, may you be the best!

So It Is Christmas

Here we are in the middle of December, with only a few days till Christmas and people are running around getting things together for the big day.  I've lost interest in most of the season trimming's since the kids are gone and grown.  It's just almost another day, since they all have separate lives and live in different areas of the USA. 
I have one person who I make efforts for and he's my man, who I live with daily.  There are at least 3 of my kids and one of his that we send gift cards to.  Other than that, it's a day we spend together, being thankful for each other and the time we have together.
I'll cook if that's what we decide to do, but if we go for the other, then we will drive to a local restaurant and have our Christmas meal.  There is at least one or two that are open on Christmas day.  Lucky them!  We will give each other the gifts that we decided on and get ready for the coming day, when he will head back to work.  I suppose I'm lucky in a way, because there are many people who will not have anyone or anything to spend or do with this Christmas.  We have a home, plenty of food, cars and the bills are paid on time.  That's a good thing in itself, considering the times I wondered where the next paycheck would come from and if there would be enough for food.  Yes, we have a good life, and I am thankful for the blessings I have daily.
So, with this said, I want to send wishes for a Merry Christmas to you and yours, this year and remember the "Reason For The Season", JESUS CHRIST.

Back Then



Those were the days when I could look good in my clothes.  Now, I just try to hide in my clothes, with all the fat and wrinkles, I have accumulated.  When I look in the mirror, I can't see anything that resembles this person here.  Being old is not funny, but I guess it's better than being dead.

It Happened

America, has once again been disgraced, by the Supreme Courts ruling today, on same sex marriage.  Here you have a classic case of defiance against the way we have been brought us to believe.  Now, they can do everything legal.  Not too long ago, they would have been tarred and feathered, just for mentioning such a thing.  Wonder what our ancestors would think about this one?

The Past

 
  Talking about a blast from the past.  I was looking through some old photos, I found and noticed this one of my second husband and myself.  It surly brought back many memories and some of them weren't great.  Still, it was nice to see how young and pretty I once was. :)

Happy Birthday's

As often as the weather, we find that birthday's come around yearly.  It seems that there's always plenty of questions about how to make each birthday special for that certain person.

You can schedule a  princess birthday party Los Angeles  when you go online to their website and fill out the application they have waiting. Just be sure to give details about your event and how you wish the theme to be.  Then call their phone number to speak with customer service and get your plans ready to make the final decision.  Prices will be given,  your party scheduled, set up and handled all by their expert staff.
This is the place to get events for all ages and the staff knows exactly how to keep everyone having the time of their lives.  You can get jump houses, pony rides, face painting, food and gifts just to mention a few of this business's services.  They have several entertainers who can take an event and make it special for your certain theme.  Fun and laughter will be had by all who attend your party, making it truly a time to remember  It can't get any easier than this to find the best party planning and handling for your next event.  Click on the links in this post to see their website for more information.

Insurance

Are you tired of looking at all the different companies and their insurance options?  I found that the online websites are great for getting quotes according to your needs.  They help you compare health insurance that's affordable with other quotes to see which one fits your family's needs.  The government is putting too much stress on the companies and families to get some insurance.  It's causing a frenzy of searching for low cost with quality insurance.  See what you can find under the link in this post.

Texting

The end of a game left us with a bitter taste in our mouths this last weekend.  Usually, me and some family members will text each other during the Cowboy games.  It was going in this direction until suddenly, it got quiet on my phone and I realized that the family didn't want to talk about it anymore.  They were pissed because the Cowboy's couldn't pull it out for a win.  It gets that way every season, when the consistent teams folds under pressure.  My family just can't accept that this team isn't what it once was.  Poor Cowboy's!

A New Decade

Yesterday, was a turning point in my life.  I moved from the 60's to the 70's and now I'm really on the downhill slide.  They say one foot in the grave and the other sliding.  How many times have I said that to someone who was older than me?  Now the shoe fits and it don't feel a damn bit good.  I guess I'll try and go out gracefully, but I know that won't be the case with me.  I'll be fighting it tooth and claw and hating every moment I loose ground.

Day After

I'm sure all who celebrate Thanksgiving were full of good food, yesterday.  They either made it, went to a cafe, shelter, or family get together to enjoy the feast.  I for one was the cooker, and then when I ate, I made a glutton of myself and was miserable the rest of the day.  I really didn't want anymore to eat the rest of the day even though there was pumpkin pie, made fresh the day before.
Today, I have had a turkey sandwich and plan on a good meal, later this evening.  Thank God I'm not crazy enough to be out there fighting with the idiots who are looking for good deals this "Black Friday".  I'll just take the easy way out when shopping for Christmas this year.  It's the same as several years before, since I've been online with internet help.  Gift cards are much easier to get and the person receiving them, can get what they want.  If they return their gifts then it's their own faults.
