My mom embarrassed me years ago when she called our small town post office and complained about slow package delivery. I gave the eulogy at mom ’ s memorial service, and I told the mortifying story at the chapel. Respectful laughter filled the room. However, embarrassment doesn ’ t bother you when you ’ re dead in the grave and maybe that ’ s the lesson here today. Mom loved to send packages to me in Arizona. She often mailed pencils, recipe clippings, bars of soap, cereal, odds and ends that were meaningful to her.

OH that's funny how they did that.
ReplyDeleteAnd to answer your question about my "little" makeover. I did do it. I am trying to find something that works for me. I tried to add the pictures of the family but there just wasn't enough room. I'm going to try to get one good picture with all of us in it to put on there!
Thank you for your very sweet words my friend.
Happy Friday to you.

That's a real pitfall alright! LOL
ReplyDeleteFor the last 4 days, I was twiddling my thumbs, trying not to be antsy for your "Friday Funnies". I'm thinking "pain and cold" with that fall! Have a great weekend sister Mary! God bless. Love and blessings to you.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCan you imagine?
Thanks for that laugh, poor girl♥
WOW! GLAD It was not me.LOL
ReplyDeleteI almost agreed for you to call me "leadfoot" except it's not a habit on my part ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's great you had fun with your grandbaby at the mall! And that your son-in-law had a chance to see and speak with you guys. That was a very precious moment!!! Everybody needed that...specially him.
I'm working this weekend [nights] but I'll try to enjoy it and I'll try to "behave". Gotta' etch in my heart "I'm Christ's Ambassador" so that you don't call me "leadfoot" again. :)
It's always great to hear from you and God bless you and your family. May you have a wonderful weekend.

ReplyDeleteMy dear friend,
ReplyDeleteI wasn't expecting that! It made me jump when she fell into the hole, but at the same time I had to chuckle.
I had to stop by for the Friday funnies even though it is 12:15 in the morning.
I love you dear friend and thank you so much for your prayers and uplifting comments. You are a treasure to me.
Hugs & blessings,
Alleluiabelle
