Happy Mother's Day to the BEST Mom!!

Just a note to tell the world my Mom is the BEST Mom and I thank her for everything she has done and continues to do for me!

I LOVE YOU, MOM!!!!

THANK YOU!!!

Have a Happy Mother's Day

PS...that's my Mom with just some of her 'stuff'! lol

I have been HAD!!!

It is in the DNA and there is NOTHING anyone can do about it to change things!! We just have to learn to live with it....hard as it may be! lol Thanks, Dad, for all the good things you passed on...but, the bad jokes aren't one of them!! lol

Chris! You are SOOOO weird!! I told Dad this morning. "Well, I have discovered who my 'cyber stalker is...it is Chris!" He asked how I knew, and I told him I could just tell by the tone of your voice. You weird-o!! I also told him it had to be you because of knowing Terry and Alan (the correct spelling! lol).

What you turned out to be is an experted kidder (could say 'liar', but I'm too nice! lol). The scum gave you away....I should have gone with my first instincts!!! I knew it was you, but couldn't believe you could pull the wool over my eyes that easily. Yep, your mother always believes what you tell me! Stop taking advantage! ;)

Love you and I guess you are right....you are the KING of jokes! lol Great trick! lol

So, now you know....Chris can NOT be trusted! lol

Cyber Bullies and Cyber Stalkers

Well, I'm making some changes to my blog. All comments will now be moderated. I guess I should have done this from the first, but thought it would be more fun to have thoughts posted immediately. But...things happen...

I watched a show on cyber bullies/cyber stalkers on Oprah. Very interesting. It is hard to believe young people get involved in it, but like Dr. Phil says, "their brains are not wired, yet"! So, teenagers are a bit easier to understand than adults who think like this!

I have had some cowardly people decide that they want to use my blog to spread their lies and bigotry. I do NOT mind someone having a difference of opinion and posting on my blog. In fact, I welcome it because it stretches my mind and makes me think harder on my own beliefs.

But, anonymous posts are nothing short of cowardice (not those that just don't bother to sign in....Josh! lol). The absolute worst poster, though, is the one who makes their opinion known but signs someone else's name. How juvenile is that?!?

If you want to say something, put your own name on it. Don't impugn someone else's good name.

No wonder they don't sign in....no courage. Like my daughter said..."Man up"!!!!

Now THIS is the Spring I have been waiting for!!

Finally, Spring is here!! This is a great start on the yard. Cliff has been out working tonight getting the pool ready. So, bring on the heat! Yah, I know....rain for the next week! :( One can always dream, though.....

Some Thoughts of the Place I call Home!

Just some thoughts of the people in my Rose Park area neighborhood. That includes a wide area. :)


I LOVE where I live and hope to stay here until I die!


It is a place where people are happy for your good fortune and mourn with you for your losses. People who choose to live here because they love the laid-back atmosphere, the location (we are always headed against traffic! lol), people who don't care about keeping up with anyone...let alone the Joneses, and who have enjoyed the extra cash because our 'little' houses are enough. We like to say we are Utah's "best kept secret".


It is calm and very peaceful. Never have we been afraid.


Some of these people helped raise my kids, and some of us were kids being raised together! They have become my friends and my family! We have a lifetime of love and memories and I know that we will share the same love on the other side.


I'm also grateful for the 'new comers' that have joined our neighborhood and all the great things they have brought. It is fun to have new friends join the old.


I hate to hear people who are uninformed make judgments about a place I love dearly. Come and join us! You'll LOVE it here! :)

This is Spring?!

I was having a wonderful, late Sunday morning. Just relaxing and watching TV, when Cliff came in and very gently open my drapes on the sliding glass door. I just about died! It was snowing so hard and windy and VERY cold. This is a Spring day??!!
Must push on and find the joy in a spring day that looks like this...and a week that promises more of the same. Sick, sick, sick of winter! lol

Happy Easter!

I LOVE this time of year! So beautiful! I think winter is the only season that, by the time it is over, I am totally sick of it! lol So glad it is over! We had our last fire last night (the wood is all gone) and now bring on the good weather. I'm sick of the cold and snow.

Easter is such a wonderful time of new beginnings. How grateful I am for the Atonement and Resurrection of my Savior, Jesus Christ. What a wonderful time to celebrate that great gift to me and to all of us.

Enjoy your life and family right now. Life is so short. Hard to believe I'm 75% over...on this earth anyway! lol

Have a great Spring! :)
