The Devil's Pastime


I find it hard to believe that my Grandma Keough really believed cards were evil. When I think of cards only good memories come flooding in. Some of the best times were at the kitchen table after supper just playing cards. I rem thinking that Rick was never going to understand how to play. Tonight Grandpa and Roz played cribbage. She is getting the basic ideas down. Let's try and play cards more. I know we all are busy and scurry to and fro but wouldn't it be fun?
Maybe I just have cabin fever. Roz was hoping for school tomorrow because she is bored. There is a big difference in not going anywhere and not being able to go anywhere. This too shall pass!!!

I CHANGED MY MIND

On Sep 15 I blogged that I was very content right where I was at. Tonight it is -20 below and I went surfing the web for a dream place . These are just a few of the many I found. Come join me and we will play some cards and talk and laugh and take a few naps.

My Twin

I'd like you to meet my childhood idol. One of many. This is Katy Keene! She has all the latest fashions and many boyfriends. She is the reason I bought my first computer in 98. I was looking for some comics from the 50's and couldn't find any. Rita did find me one but I wanted more. I have now a comic book collection worth more than my wedding ring. I still enjoy looking at fashion. I wonder if anyone else has ever heard of her. (in my circle)

WINTER

This is our backyard last winter. This year it is even deeper. Going to be really cold here the rest of this week. Glad I am not going anywhere. I worry about the little and big children that need to walk to school. Maybe they will cancel. -30. Hope so........ BRRRRRR

Would you believe it?


I made this recipe and took part in a chat room for $40.00. Wow, can you believe it? I still can't. It was good!
I smile whenever I think about it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!

This is what my birthday cake looked like. Llyle stopped at a grocery store on the way home from work in Delavan and found my ice cream cake. We played cards with Roz and had yummy cake. T-4 (Isn't he sweet to get my treat. )
I am back. I'm going to try again to blog successfully.

NDE Anniversary!!!

Today is the one year anniversary of my latest NDE (near death experience). I remember it so well, because it was my nephew's wedding.


Happy Anniversary Brent & Andrea.

Mostly I am known for my singing, dancing and my sense of humor. :} This last extra year has been a blessing beyond measure. I couldn't even begin to tell you of each special moment. I do know one thing though, that life is wonderful.
When I realized today that if I could do anything I wanted to do, I would do just what I am doing, I really don't need anything material or wish I was somewhere on a island etc. This was a beautiful day. It was raining and I feel peaceful. I am surrounded by loved ones and have everything I need. One day at a time!!! Today I could look back without regrets and look ahead with hope. For this I thank GOD!!!

I love you. If you are reading this you are one of my favorite people in the world. You mean the world to me.
XOXOXOXOXO
