What Would You Ask of Your Genie?
These days I do a lot of reminiscing. I’m not looking in a rear-view mirror to pine away at the memories of the past. I go back in time to cherish the sweetest times when God proved His faithfulness time and again. While our precious family from Canada has been here, we did some of…
Sweet & Tasty Treats
I read that Krispy Kreme celebrated its 85th birthday on July 13th. AND, to celebrate, from July 11th through July 14th, they chose multiple guests each day to receive an 85th birthday card worth a dozen free glazed donuts a month for a year. I’m sorry I missed the big celebration! Well, not really. The…
Got Your Ears On?
FYI to you youngsters out there!! Back in the 1970s, there was a major oil crisis and the U.S. government imposed a nationwide 55 mph speed limit. Fuel shortages were widespread and CB radios were used to help locate a supply of gasoline and notify other drivers of speed traps. The Burt Reynolds “Smokey and…
What’s Your Name?
Another song blast from the past. “What’s your name? Is it Mary or Sue? What’s your name? Do I stand a chance with you? It’s so hard to find a personality with charms like yours for me. Ooh-ee, ooh-ee, ooh-ee!” I’m grinning from ear to ear as I remember the sweet and tender, but sometimes…
He Loves Me. ? He Loves Me Not. ?
Blast from the past! Did you ever take a flower (usually a daisy or a rose) and proceed to pluck off one petal at a time and repeat the words “He loves me; He loves me not”? Playing that little game represented the truth between whether that cute boy loved us or not. I don’t…
Christmas is for Children — of All Ages
Oh how the memories roll like a film during this time of year when we see a Christmas program, a play, light displays, hear a song or anything that creates a “blast from the past”. That happened for me on Sunday when my two youngest grandsons were in their church’s Children’s Christmas program — singing…

Snow Boots Come With Memories
Day 49 of Photo Inspirations — Snow Boots Come With Memories So yesterday, a snowy day in Tulsa, I set out to take some photos of the beauty. I pulled out these snow boots and bundled myself up from head to toe to stay warm. When I was back home and taking off those…
Merry Heart Does Good Like a Medicine
Day 30 of Photo Inspirations — Loved hanging and shopping with my girl today. Just like old, old times — when we shopped till we almost dropped, made a quick stop to eat and laugh a lot — a whole lot. Today I had a “blast-from-the-past” moment when we stopped at Chipotle’s and I saw…
