The CIRCLE Closed.....

{My heart is so full of joy! Thanksgiving w/Family is such a great blessing.}  I was able to fulfill a long, OVERdue return to Bonnie. So many years ago, I can't put a number to, I came into possession of 2 beautiful, engraved Christmas ornaments. 2 things I knew --they needed to return to their owner, and, there was a story to be learned about them.  I'd "find" them ~ know I needed to mail them, ~~only to "find" again, the same precious items, ~~still in my possession! Frustrating indeed!  {It seems they just kept getting "lost"/moved, and the follow through didn't happen.!!} It  DID happen. Soon after Bonnie arrived (Wed. night) I presented them to her. It was such a sweet moment....  ..uncovering them Now. They are back where they always belonged....in her hands. The story ~~she and her Mom (our beloved Evonne) had been together when they were purchased. Then, Bonnie actually did the engraving ~~Summer, Draven ~~ on them herself.

M O V E it on out .... !!

This weekend, Eric n Pattie came down, to pick up furniture and her storage items. Now, that they are "in" their new home,......all must be "collected" and wind up in this new home. Major decision was made by us ~~we would give Eric our KING-sized bed. For sure, it hasn't been used in years by us! (only recent use was when David lived w/us that 6mos. or so). Lamar hasn't slept in an actual bed in years!!...he has an oversized Recliner, for easier breathing position. It caused me "mixed emotions", since that had been ours since early married years. I'm over it ! Lamar had no problem "letting it go". Eric likes that handmade, Pine bed and it is beautiful. We know it's "in the family" and will be loved !  ...here it goes ...loaded into trailer Eric's great FRIEND ~Greg, came and helped load ALL this stuff. There was items @ Marc's house, and in Douglasville to retrieve. GREG saved us! He will take the load
