I’m thankful for my little five year old granddaughter, Zoe.  Zoe lives here in Picayune with her daddy, Mark, her mama, Lynn, and sisters, Hannah & baby Kayci. Zoe likes frogs and bugs and snails and, especially, starfish.  I’ve given her a couple of real ones to treasure and she’s always looking for starfish. She [...]

Good to be Home

December 10th, 2007 · 6 Comments · Dee's Family, Families, Our Kids, Tom & Me

It’s good to be home.  We had a great trip and saw lots of family and did lots of fun things, but it’s good to be home again. The trip home was uneventful.  Especially for me, who slept about 95% of the time coming home.  I can’t stay awake in a car any more on [...]

Y’all – I Think I Had A Seizure

September 27th, 2007 · 7 Comments · Health, Our Kids, Tom & Me, Uncategorized

I need y’all to pray for me about something.  You see, I’m home alone the rest of the week (which I wasn’t going to divulge, but now am) because Tom is out of town on a business trip and won’t be back until Sunday evening sometime.  He left yesterday, so I was alone last night [...]

My kids like to talk with me.  Mark called me last night just to talk.   I like to talk with them, too, so we’re even.  They are delightful people and we have a great time talking with one another and visiting, when we get the chance.   I really enjoy talking with my mom, [...]

I Admit It – I’m Gullible (Make That Trusting)

February 28th, 2005 · 1 Comment · Families, Humor, Our Kids, Philosophical, Reflections, Spirituality, Tom & Me

Okay – the word is gullible. Although, I much prefer trusting. But, I’ve been called on it, now, some three times in the past three or four days since the Captain Gulf post, so I guess I need to consider the possibility, at least, that that’s what I am – gullible. One long time friend [...]
