Friday Funnies

With all the news lately about the subzero weather and snow that
the Midwest and east coast areas are experiencing, we shouldn't
forget that Phoenix also has its share of devastating weather in the last couple weeks.

Attached is a photo showing damage to a home from a recent storm
that passed through the Phoenix area. It really makes you cherish what
you have, and reminds us not to take life for granted.






Kim is hosting more Friday Funnies at Homesteader’s Heart. Have a great Friday!

    That cracks me up, Mary! Since I'm an Arizonan myself, I must say how much hubby and I enjoy the incredible storms here. The more the wind & the louder the thunder, the happier we are. It's an event we relish, unlike our days in WA State when it was a "condition", and not an event at all.

    Hugs,
    Kathleen

    My post, another sister's post...talking about how life is short and we must learn to cherish things here...then yours...except yours is better :) Funny. Mine was too serious, you needed "tissues"... :) I hate it when I go to work and the wind gusts are strong. One time, it was so strong I had my son ran after the trash bin being blown by the wind down our street. He had a good laugh though, while his mommy was rolling on the floor!

    Have a great weekend sister and God bless you always. Love to you.

    By the way, I am the one who thinks you are ornery! The last comment from Kayla was really from me!! Sorry! I was logged in under my son's girlfriends account. I am using his computer today. It is taking me awhile to get into thinking mode today. :) Hope you have a great day!!

    That is too funny. I love when they scoot all over the deck as the wind blows them where they can! That is really some storm damage!

    Love and Hugs ~ Kat

    I love the storms we have in Phoenix. When it rains I get excited. It's so different from New York where I grew up. When it rained there, it was all day. You know how it is here.

    Next time I hope you might be able to get into town and join Sassy Granny and me.

    Blessings and love,
    Debbie

A Veteran's Story

  I noticed Bill sitting in our local park where I walk.   He glanced my way just as I finished the last exercise walk song on my playlist.   He shouted and pointed to my car:   “Hey, is that your car with the Nam front license plate?   I stepped closer into the veranda where Bill sat on a picnic bench.   I noticed his Vietnam Vet cap and instantly I knew why I walked there that day.   The Marine Vet served during the 1960’s, the same time span as my husband.   Bill talked a lot about the war evoking my emotions from laughter to tears.   My South Vietnam front plate often prompts a conversation with a stranger and I’ve learned a deep respect for it over the years.   It is my way of listening to a veteran.   I enjoyed listening to Bill.   He made me laugh in spots but he made me cry as well.   Like when he talked about the sandwich lady.   “Do you ever eat at the sandwich shop in the gas station down the street...

Lunch With the Girls on Gurley Street

While vacuuming a few days ago, I had a conversation with myself wondering if I should delete my blog. It was just a stray thought that came into my head while I was on a self pity trip. When life gets hard, I don’t always feel like rejoicing and with a blog dedicated to smiling in life, well it is just too much pressure! Then something wonderful happened. I am smiling again and can’t wait to write about it! Two precious sisters-in-Christ, amazing Arizona bloggers from the valley, drove up north and offered mega doses of encouragement. Today I would like to feature the wonderful afternoon I spent in Prescott with Debbie from Heart Choices and Kathleen from Sassy Granny. Debbie and I met last year at a blogger luncheon, so I knew this charming lady would have us laughing with her friendly ease. She is beautiful inside and out and oh, what a heart of love this gal has! It was such a blessing to meet Kathleen in person after following her blog this past year. I was su...

A Memorial Day Reflection

  Memorial Day is always noteworthy for me and my girls.  Next Thursday marks the third year of missing their father, my husband. So many thoughts  run through my mind.  The journey of loss takes on various emotions.  The strongest feeling, at first, was emptiness.  In a split second, I would forget he departed forever.  I imagined things I needed to talk to him about when he got back home.  My mind is realistic now.  He's not coming back.  There will be no more times of sitting on the porch swing together on the front deck staring at the moon and the stars.  He would tell me all he knew about the majestic night sky. I have so much I wish I could tell him, like the excitement of seeing our oldest grandchild make a decision to follow Jesus and get baptized on Mother's Day!  And our little Amy, 11 years old, I wish he could have seen her on stage receiving her induction to the National Honor Society. Our daughters have their own ...
