PERFECT FAMILY...

e

It seems natural that evey MOTHER thinks she has a perfect family.....I do....Saturday Karrie had a birthday party for Richie B. with Sherrie, Ken and I invited....she entertains so beautifully and it was fun getting acquainted with Andrea's two little girls....who kept us entertained....my great-grandkids.  Sherrie and some of her family were off to ST. Thomas for a week or so. Pam came by Friday for a couple of hours....hadn't seen her since a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving....Then Mike dropped by for a visit....so nice to see family more....but still locked up and wearing masks most the time.....

 

HELP!!!!

O.K. Maybe I can stop and take another look at ME......I have come a long ways in this beautful country....I said The Pledge to the Flag.....the songs we learned about America the Beautiful ETC,  we knew the importance of the flag and had relatives that fought in the wars to keep America free....I bought stamps to put in a book for freedom each week in grade school and we got stamps in a book for one pair of shoes every six months per member...per family and gas, sugar, soap etc was rationed per family during the war....but we did it...and was glad to help out....BUT this.....the lying, sneaking, cheating,,,,has certainly got out of hand.....This President election has turned into a joke.....starting with the roten Clintons.......and the election of TRUMP.......think about the past four years.....The Democrates have been laying plans to turn our country into a lower country with Socialism!

 

I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT!

As I have been sitting here this after noon  watching the Republicans ralley round....storm.....and shoot one lady.ppo.... as they storm the Capital Building......I feel" the Constitution hanging by a thread" as forcast in the book of Mormon....but I am proud of the Republicans for finally trying to be the nice guys and let the Democrates get run out of office......It is to bad those of you hate ONE person so much    you sacrifice your country to get even......with him...  I am mad....I am Scared for my grandkids...I am disappointed....I hate Biden as much as many hate Trumph....and the black no good vice appointed president will some day be your President folks....good luck to open boarders.....defunded police....abortion the new birth control....guns control and goverment medical control etc.....SOCIALISM at its greatest.......this is indeed a dark day for many of us....Dear GOD....I will keep trying to believe you know what you are doing with this horrible thing and the viris....I know our country deserves a wake up....but we need help today.....in my almost 89 years ....this is the worsT!

 

ME.....

e

I love it when people say....."I can't believe your that old".....cause I can't either!

This miserable viris pandemic shut down dying my hair,,,,now I am grey....but I think of it as a young grey....I move slower.....and like taking naps.....but all in all I am still the old me inside!

I enjoy my kids, grandkids and neighbors...I love movies and crafts and talking on the phone. Miss my bridge partys because of viris and no more groups. And especially my retail therapy....I do so love to shop.....and love clothes and jewlery......Oh yes and traveling.....I HOPE I NEVER CHANGE....

 

BEST THINGS IN LIFE.....

SO TRUE......

And the memory to keep enjoying all those memories you have made.....Being 16....so I could drive.....having three class rings around my neck at once.....school proms....and first loves....18 and high school graduation.....college and finally 21.....Being a stewardess for 2 1/2 

years......and marrying an airline pilot and traveling the world......My first baby girl Pam....only child for 11 years and THEN twins!!!! A divorce after 30 years and then work as a Concierge at hotel and wonderful years of traveling the world....six of the seven continents.....50 states.....and about 120 countries....so lucky....Childrens weddings and 9 grandchild....and almost 5 great-grandchild.....and the TEMPLE.....Good health.....wonderful family and so many wonderful friends.....and at almost 89....I can still rememlber it all.

 

I HATE WINTER.....

Of all the seasons.....I dislike WINTER most.  I grew up in Colorado where we had four seasons....and I didn't know you could go some place where it was summer or spring all year round....then I grew up and started traveling .....and yes, no snow in many places in the world..  BUT my three girls live in Utah and they are my whole life....so I live in snow country.  So far this year we have had a very light winter when it comes to shoveling the drive way...but winter isn't over yet? and no "White Christmas".......

Speaking of Christmas.....it seems like a week of blaaaa.  The 19th Karrie had a family party for the Petersons.....ROB sick so Panniers didn't come.....just Cooks and Christensons and me....it was so fun and that was my CHRISTMAS this year.  Kids invited me to join for dinner but after the Thanksgiving fight over where I went....I gave up and stayed home alone!  It will probably be like this  ......the few remaining years I have.  I am so done with 2020!!!!

 

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2021....

Made it through 2020!

One ruff year....the viris year....home bound and masks.....it has me mentally going crazy.  Also had breast cancer......so many lows.  But one good high Karrie back in the family..HUGH. I miss seeing the kids and bridge group and old friends.  I did enjoy a 3 day road trip to Colorado to see little brother with Leslie and I did spend Halloween weekend in Vernal and went through the temple and was sealed to my parents....so there was some good stuff too. I am trying to start this new year off...positive.  I go to church on the TV ZOOM....and the viris is still very bad in Utah.....Also Biden beat Trumph.....and this crushed me....but I have to trrust God knows what he is doing.......and we will not end up a communest country with the government running everything in our lives.  I am suffering from torn rotary cuffs and in pain constantly.....seems no cure with arthritis mixed in.....but happy for every day God gives me.

Happy New Year a day late.
