Life in general

Hello blogstalkers!!!  Hope this finds you all doing well and good. 

Personally, I’m doing good also.  It’s been a little while since my last post to this blog, so thought I’d better check in and let you all know what is going on in my life.  In one word…. Nothing!  (hahahaha).   Well, not entirely true.  Nothing HUGE has been going on; I haven’t won the lottery, I haven’t gone anywhere exotic or exciting, and I haven’t gotten to buy anything extravagant or decadent lately.  But, there have been a few little things that have gone on that are just as gratifying, if not more so.

I’ve gotten to spend some time with good friends lately.  I love it when that happens.   It seems that life is always so busy for everyone that it takes an act of congress to get together and enjoy each other’s company.  We vow to not let it “go so long”….but sometimes good intentions go awry.   The best thing is that the minute we do get together, it’s like it was just yesterday that we last saw each other or spoke to each other.  That’s a good sign of friendship – picking up where you left off.

This past weekend I went down to Adrian for another dusk-to-dawn wiffleball tournament.  Let me tell you….. you haven’t experienced life until you’ve gone to one of these!!  Freakin Hilarious!  Good thing that there is “zero” athleticism with this game!   The facility where I work had maybe 4 teams at this tournament, which was great to see!  Mitch and Lynette opened up their home once more and hosted a cookout prior to the games starting.  I was able to spend time with co-workers and catch up on what has been happening in their lives.  Of course, some cold refreshments were enjoyed along with all of the scrumptious food!  I even went for a ride on an ATV giving Tim a grand tour of Adrian.  (That took a whole whopping 5 minutes!).   

My team  lost every single game.   Not surprising…… but we had fun and gave it our best shot!    As much as I had intended to stay and “REALLY”  let my hair down, I ended up leaving about 1: 45 in the morning.   This chick isn’t quite the night owl that I used to be.  (and no, that doesn’t mean that I’m getting old!)  (hahahaha).

So, that’s it in a nutshell ….life in general is pretty good.

Until next time,

Sherry

Welcome to the Shit Show!

 I'm trying not to breaking one of my hard and fast rules - do not  talk politics or religion .  But for the love of all things holy, I cannot not   comment on the total shit show of last nights presidential debate.     America, we're screwed!     I want the chance to write in a candidate.  I think anyone would be a better option than the two we have right now.  UGGGHHHH!   I'm soooooo tired of the bickering . right vs. left.  I'm tired of the media, I'm tired of black lives matter (ALL LIVES MATTER, shit heads!), cop kiilings, riots and the disrespect and downright hatred  of the flag, of our Country!   I'm scared for everyone concerned.  I feel  the anger, the despair, the lack of consideration and respect - not only for the country -but for humanity .   I heard Savanna Guthrie , NBC Today Show, say that Social Media was the cesspool of society."   I couldn't have said it bet...

Merry Christmas!

For Christmas 2022, I had promised Blaine that I would take him to Million (aka Michael) and get his UJ (University of Jamestown) tattoo recolored.  Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate and I couldn't fulfill my promise to him. Christmas 2023 I was  subtly  reminded that I owed him his gift from last year!  He forgets  to brush his teeth or clean his apartment but gosh darn he sure remembers if it's something he wants!  Michael was all about making it look like new again and hooked us up with an appointment yesterday.   What a day!!! We started out with coffee and egg McMuffins and plenty of conversation as we rolled down the interstate! I think his mouth was going faster than we were traveling! We covered so man y topics! We laughed a lot but cried a bit too as we remembered the farm and grandpa and grandma. After the tattoo, we went ro Scheels for a few more Christmas gifts.. a swim bag for his Special Olympics swimming gea...

A Repeat...

Once in a while I receive a request to "repeat" a blog post. This is one of the repeat posts that I hope you all enjoy the 2nd time around. It was originally posted in May of 2008. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Greetings Everyone, I received an email about 9 years ago from a far-away-friend that touched me to the core. It was entitled "Life's Lessons." I printed it out and tucked it away to read when I needed some inspiration. I ran across it awhile ago and, not surprisingly, it touched me as much now as it did then. So, to my friend Lee - wherever you may be, thank you for sending me something so beautiful and for thinking of me. Be well My friend. Life's Lessons Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, they serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be; your ...
