Vintage Weekly #116: Sports Car


the love of my life
before I met him

Charles served in the Air Force in the mid-1950s.
He was stationed in Turkey.
By the time I met him, his car was not as sporty
as this one.  When I met him, he was driving 
a plain black 1957 Chevy.

Oh, Nonnie...what a handsome man he was. I can't even begin to imagine how much you miss him. We are in our 55th yr of marriage and I can't even start to know how I could go on without him. HOWEVER...I know, without a doubt, that God is the one that gets us thru. What in the world do people that don't BELIEVE do without HIM when troubles hit ?

and I LOVE that car....:)

BJ, we had been married 47 years. With God and the support of family, I'm still here. I have nod idea how one fares without faith in God.

Pondering about My Blog

I've been through quite a bit these past months that I haven't posted.  First, packing and moving and then unpacking . The first step of unpacking was my taking down boxes that were five and six boxes high.  About two weeks after I’d moved and was in the midst of unpacking, I developed horrendous pain in my ribs. I slathered on my gel I use to alleviate Fibromyalgia pain. Realizing that even that was not helping. Trying to make a long story short- Asked for pain pills No help; asked for another kind Doctor wanted to see me Went in- he didn’t understand why I was still in pain Sent me to get x-rays Diagnosis: compressed fracture in my 9th vertebra Cause: osteporosis Now on meds for that I’ve discovered that anytime I overdo, pain comes back, not quite full-blown, but enough that I must stop doing whatever I’m doing. That includes sitting at my computer writing. I wanted to bring my friends up-to-date; I’m pondering whether I should stop blogging altogether o

Quirky Poem

Have humans sat here? Not recently, I think. Perhaps a snow couple rested for a while, and the shadowy remnants of them remain. more Cool Clicks
