Good Friends

Last week I met my friend Jackie in Eufaula. She is such an inspiration to all of us on the "BAMA" board. If I ever grow up I want to be like Jackie.

Lost Treasures

Tonight I found an online photo album that I had totally forgotten about. By some miracle I was able to log in. Right in front of me were photos I thought were gone. I cried tears of joy. We have very few photos of the three of us "kids" together ...

The Temple Mound

7 years later

A Long Year

Sun, 20 Jan 2008 06:33:00 -0800

Mama left us a year ago today for her heavenly home. She endured 9 months of chemo before her body said "no more". Only 8 weeks ago my mother-in-law joined her in heaven. The past year has been a roller coaster of emotions as we learn to live alone for the ...
