Mother’s Day is a Twofer for Me

Dad reminded me every May 11^th ~ about the twin heifers born on our farm ~ the same morning I was born.  

I never did ask where he spent most of the day, in the hospital, or in the barn.  ☺

This May 11^th, it has happened 11 times during my lifetime…

My birthday falls on Mother’s Day.

That makes it easy for the family, it’s a twofer!

Here’s wishing all you moms a

Happy Mother’s Day

full of  

happiness, love and relaxation

doing what you like to do best

because it’s

YOUR day!

ENJOY!!!

And especially to you, Mom!

Happy Mother’s Day!

I miss you…

I'm Celebrating Today!

Today is my birthday and I’m not saying yet how old I am but, gas cost 15 cents per gallon the year I was born.  The average new car was $1,020, a portable typewriter (remember them?) cost $68.37, and World War II ended.  And sadly, my favorite baseball team, the Chicago Cubs lost the World Series to the Detroit Tigers ~ 4 games to 3. 

The microwave oven had not been invented yet, nor had diet soft drinks, the hula hoop, Frisbees, the juke box and credit cards; not to leave out computers, cell phones and McDonalds. 

In Bubba’s words on his blog today:  “Today is the sixth anniversary of the thirtieth anniversary of Mrs. Bubba Sr.’s thirtieth birthday.”  I thank God for every one of them and especially my loving family! 

"The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age."

Here's wishing you all a wonderful day!!!

I’m Taking the Day Off!

Today is my birthday and I’m taking this rainy, stormy day off!  There will be no cooking today.  I’m not saying how old I am but let’s just say I’ve reached a milestone with lots of papers to sign. 

I’ll be celebrating the day ~  wrapping it up with Bill taking me for dinner at one of our favorite restaurants. 

Happy Day to all of you and I wish you all the good that is wished for me on this day!

And remember, birthdays are nature’s way of telling us to eat more cake, so I’m off to eat cake…
