Happy Birthday MAXINE....

The 27th is a special day for ALL of us who Love Maxine.
It's her Birthday! {she hits 82 today} When GOD brought her forth, into the world....he certainly BLESSED all of us, who would be lucky enough to know her, and have her in our lives.
I met Maxine in the 80s, when I began work @ Kennesaw College. We have been Sista/FRIENDS, ever since that year!
Too many episodes, dramas,  FUN, happiness, sadness, joy and events, we've been through to cover!
Life keeps us @ a distance, sometimes, too long....but when we do get together.....look out!! Maxine is a true
 Joy, Inspiration, and lovely role model to me.
There are some years (haha) between our ages.....but in our Hearts, we seem to be kindred, ol souls!
Friendship is priceless. "GOLDEN" friendships are even more--impossible to measure.
We enjoy being together, sometimes--doing nothing more than chatting! However.....we do Love a good yard sale, or mountain trip getaway! (Missed those the last couple of yrs!!)
Maxine Loves her family....and they shower her w/much love, in return. I know most of them, and LOVE them, too. We each kinda "belong" to the other's family! Kids n all!
Wishing this BFF, for all these years, a very HAPPY Birthday, good Health, Joy of life,  and many more birthdays to come! Girl, you CRACK me up sometimes!!
(We'll keep the REAL gOOd stories, on each other, to ourselves!! LOL)  **there are some Duzzies! LOL**

LIFE Lessons .....Learning Again !!

Image
This blog is a confession and statement of "new" learning for me. The "darkness" of an "acute" illness, and the healing from that, has been a reality check in full measure! I'm a Believer. I'm one who praises God, prays all the time, and am confident of the Love of my Father. That statement made -- I am still filled w/human nature and it's quircks! We all get "comfortable" in our everyday lives and routines. Well. Mine has been blown apart w/this "healing" process.!! It's going much more slowly than I would desire, and so much seems more difficult, and "lost" a bit. There are books written, quotes out there, and we all kinda believe --don't sweat the "small" stuff. Pfffft! It's the "small" stuff that's giving me such tough issues right now. Go figure! Examples: energy to "move" and do my everyday routines; insecurity/discomfort w/the thought of driving a car (not

the "REST OF THE STORY"......

I did soooo Love Paul Harvey. His stories were always so interesting.....and, he researched to bring a story to an often unknown ending. The "rest of the story" always let ya know.....the circle was closed on that topic for him. In that fashion....I wanted to do this blog. I love photography. I'm quite a happy amateur! Now, with Pinterest I get to see unlimited talent. This picture was one that "drew me in"....After I pinned it.....there were like 30+ other people who loved it too! This picture received the most pins on my boards. Just look at it....Never did try to track down the photographer. Only went as far as where the pin originated. Browsing pinterest boards is a fun pastime. I enjoy "following" pictures/quotes and such as far as I dare. In browsing.....I "fell into" a site. The photographer is TIMOTHY WALKER. A very eclectic range of photos. Behold! There was this picture among them. I gasped! (He has several other photos
