In loving memory of James

We love you to pieces and miss you so much.  Rest in peace James.

Summer Read!

Have you ever browsed thru the books at the library and randomly find one interesting to read?  That's my choice for this summer's read ,"Blue Asylum".  The author is Kathy Hepinstall, who is an award- winning creative director and advertising writer.  She  was born in Texas.

So off I go to start my summer read.......

Memorial Day......a day to remember, a day to give thanks

Thank you to all the men and women of the Armed Forces who gave their lives in defense of our country.  

Acceptance.....

Sometimes you have to man up and accept the inevitable.  That's what I am doing and I finally got some reading glasses. What was the last straw for me was the other night when Jackie, Tanya, and I were at a restaurant and I was trying to read the menu. Tanya noticed I could use some help reading, so she said to me try my reading glasses.  When I did, OMG, it was like night and day!  I asked her what strength they were and they are 1.75 strength (I don't know if that's really bad or not).  


I went to Target and got these in the picture.  They are Foster Grant's and purple (of course) with a little stylish color on the sides.  Love them!  They are just for reading I want you to know, cause I can see real good otherwise.  Just saying.....

Zion National Park....and some relaxation

Took a trip to Zion National Park and Red Mountain Resort......just a short 2 hour trip to St. George, Utah.  Zion is beautiful and the resort was relaxing.  Took a tai-chi class and a chi ball class......interesting. Nice short get-away trip!

My Mom's birthday!

Today is my mom's 82nd birthday.  I love her to pieces.  She is so strong, so kind, so brave..........my inspiration. Happy Birthday to you Mom.  Love you!

Boz Skaggs!

Here's one down memory lane. (You gotta love the white shirt and pants). Loved his music as a teenager and still love it now.  Took my best friend to see Boz in concert last night for her birthday and he was awesome as always!  Happy birthday Lory!

Happy Birthday Brendan!

My nephew turned 15 years old today.  Here's a picture of him from yesterday for his Freshman dance.  His proud mom had to get a picture with him before he left.  Enjoy your birthday Bren and wishing many happy days for you!
