MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY 2020

                             

             TWENTY years ago.. were we even thinking about getting to 2020? I mean it seemed so far away and now we are almost there. I was not even blogging in 2000.. Hard to believe but I had just been introduced to the computer at the local library and was learning the ins and outs one hour each day as they would allow. I made some nice friends there. Sue Lehman visited Michigan for a class reunion and was with me at the library as I sat up my first e mail account at Yahoo. It would be awhile before I would get a computer from another friend so I could use it at home. Oh how far I have come and how many wonderful people have come into my life. 

There have been so many changes. I have lived in so many places, met people, experienced life and death and learned to cope with what life throws at me and adapt along the way. As we go into another decade..can we even begin to imagine what changes there will be then? We can only hope and pray we all have wonderful lives with good health and much prosperity. 

             MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 2020!! 

                                     

NOVEMBER 2019

                                             

WHAT??? Something happened to FALL here in Michigan.. we got blasted with snow and some trees were still full of leaves. Coldest temps on RECORDS.. another polar vortex? Not sure what is happening, but we are used to winter, just not used to it so early and not much fall at all. What we had was beautiful to see. Ours was late this year, lots of trees had green leaves even at Halloween. The above photo is the Brooks fountain the middle of our town. A round about was built around it and it is lit up and water flows until October. Many gather there for photos and just to rest and hear the fountain. The link will take you to a little video of what we see in the summertime. Everyone loves it. 

ANYWAY...Thanksgiving is coming and shoppers are making choices already for Christmas. Today I heard that our little town has the LAST KMART in the state of MICHIGAN. WOW..we are sure glad. It gets lots of use and the nearest shopping stores are 20 min away. Those of us who have no transportation other than the local bus are grateful. We know eventually it will close. Just hope something comes in to take it's place. Only so much is sold in the dollar stores. 

On the health update.. the cardiologist ordered another 2 week ZIO monitor to make sure my AFIB episode was just one time. Waiting to see what it says..not too worried as I monitor things pretty well. The glaucoma is under control also. All is well..😃

Hope you all are doing well also..
