MEANDERINGS of Margie

Today, in the mail, I received a picture. It is of graduation, 1966 !! It's  meeeee!! This "memory" was in good hands, all these years, with Alice Hall !! I had recently posted to FB my only grad pic, for flashback. That was the the "bell" that went ringing for Alice! She remembered ~~ Ami and Ginger were going thru her pictures to retrieve those they wanted to keep. They found this one, but were unsure, at the time, who that gal was in the picture.! Alice recalled that "digging" session, looked and found this for me. !! (after seeing mine)  How  COOOOOL  is that! That  IS  the moment, I was being handed my Diploma !! Alice doesn't remember who took the pic....her or Rick. Surprise !

This is the beautiful Pandora bracelet, w/2 silver butterflies I received on my b'day. I  LUV  it! (I have nevah even thought of buying one, or doing the "charm" thang!) Sweet girlFRIENDS gave this to me. I love those kinda surprises !! I took it off, when I got home, and put it "up"....safely.??I'm (as a norm) usually very careful w/loved things. People -- I've about lost my "grip" on self-trust the last few days!! After cleaning my business desk, in the dining room, I found the boxes that was with it. So. Decided to return the bracelet to the box....would be "easy" to find, when next I want to wear it. Honey please. It was NOwhere to be found.!! I tried to "back-track" and revisit my return home. I KNEW it was inside, because I had proudly shown it to Lamar. I went bonkers --more like cray-cray!! My search was EVERY location in the house, jewelry box, under the bed (case I dropped it), and even every inch I could c

Since early morning, we've been hearing a helicopter. Sometimes we hear them, when there are bad wrecks on 75. This just kept on, and on, and on....... So. Lamar had to put gas in the truck, asked if I wanted to ride along, and see if we could "spot" the helicopter. Well...duh. OFcourse!! I spotted it quickly, on the "spur" road from our house! Lamar pulled over, so I could get my pics. (he's so good to me..haha!)  1st sighted...helicopter w/steel cable hangin down....  ..just above the power lines  ..hangin frm copter -- he's trimming trees !!  ...further, you can see blades & copter together  ...pilot be "hangin" his head out to watch blade !  then....he came towards me!!  ...Awesome sight!  ..over my head, down left side of road ...blades sawin 'dem trees off !! Red truck, decided to turn around & leave the area !!  ..best guess, 'bout  10 of 'dem Saw Blades, hangin frm a copter!! Ye
