    That was funny. My grandson's father is from Hungary. So it was extra funny to me.
    Also I am sorry I forgot to leave a comment below.
    You are awesome and deserve a 100 awards.
    Thank you for thinking of me with an award too.
    Have a wonderful week.

    You just wonder if she was absent or cutting classes in her geography or history classes. Though I knew of a co-worker once who never heard of Greece. I thought she was kidding at first but I was the only one laughing, until I zipped my lips.
    God bless sister Mary and love and prayers always to you. Have a great weekend.

    My goodness, I've so much catching up to do; happy I started here! Ya, it's scarey to think what our schools are (or AREN'T) teaching these days ... I work with a very (seemingly) bright young lady who recently asked in all honesty, "Does the President actually live in the White House?".

    Enjoy your day, Mary!

    I came by last night when you had first hit the publish button but had trouble loading.. glad my server is back to normal again today.

    here sending you more smiles and hugs. Have a blessed weekend!

    As to your header pic, i think it's like a burst of sunshine everytime someone comes in here. But if you do not feel comfortable, another idea is to move this to the side bar and have a more generalised picture like a flower/nature/ as a header instead.

    (If you go to Dashboard, click Customize, you will see the Header box in the template. You can change the pic whenever you like a change by clicking Edit.)

    :)

    Yikes! It makes me want to figure out how to give my eighth graders a basic knowledge kit so they don't end up like that pretty miss!

    Oh dear! That's both amusing and tragic. (Watching the boy's expressions in the video were priceless!) Yet so many today are uneducated in regards to history and geography, that it scares me. Recently someone wrote to me that Ancient Rome, under Nero, was a Christian empire!?

My Mom Fought the U.S. Post Office and Won

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.  Mom never understood that her mailings to a hick town in the west take a heck of a lot longer than it does in Chicago.  I got umpteen phone calls from her before any shipment arrived and she would ask impatiently:  “ Did you get my package yet? ” It was about six years ago when retrieving my mail, Toni, my favorite clerk shouted to me across the room from the front desk, “Your mother called me yesterday.   She...

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 ...

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...
