YES!! Six wonderful days in June!! I loved every moment. The arrival, the family dinners, and the farewell. Those moments were precious to me. Just knowing they were down the street was comforting to me. Getting to hug them both. Seeing their happy faces in the pictures they were posting for friends back home. ItContinue reading “UPDATE – WONDERFUL MOMENTS aka MIRACLES! -“SIX DAYS IN JUNE, 2019””

CARNAVAL DE NICE
This is my 4th February in Nice, and I STILL have not gone to a Carnaval Parade. Why, you ask? …Well, it could be because I don’t like events with crowds. Never did – except for the GHS football games. But, rock concerts and such, no. I liked to go to the Hollywood Bowl. ThatContinue reading “CARNAVAL DE NICE”

CHRISTMAS “FUNNIES”
Remember the “funnies”. At least, that is what we called them. I don’t think newspapers have a “funnies” page anymore, do they? That is what I would tell Daddy to pass to me when he was reading The Atlanta Journal on Sunday mornings at the breakfast table. It was the ONLY thing I would readContinue reading “CHRISTMAS “FUNNIES””

A TIME TO REMEMBER
I was born in 1937. This is true. I remember as if it were yesterday. A Gentle Reminder “Born in the 1930s and early 40s, we exist as a very special age group. We are the smallest group of children born since the early 1900s. We are the last generation, climbing out of the depression, whoContinue reading “A TIME TO REMEMBER”
