RED WHITE AND I WAS BLUE...

Happy Tuesday!

Hope everyone had a great weekend. 

had an exciting one. Loved the virus that came to visit me. 

Happenings that I didn't get to attend...sniff. I am okay now. 


Grandson's High School Graduation~

Technology is great. I watched live stream online.
Pomp and Circumstance got me. 
Granddaughter's dance recital~
She was perfect, confident and oh so graceful.
I watched all the videos of her dances.
She's holding the flowers that I sent to her before the recital. 
I've never missed a recital. 


Daughter's engagement~
We are beyond thrilled for them! 
They came by, we had a champagne toast~

She also had a birthday yesterday! 
Exciting times!

I finally stopped feeling sorry for myself...don't ask when!

I survived and while all  this was going on without me...I played with my camera and kept myself busy.


My daddy

God bless Our Veterans 
and
God Bless America!


Love my rosebuds~










There you go! 
Six grandkids,
 Six old pictures of them. 
Had fun with framing. 

Tell me about your weekend! 

Have a great week!

You Need A Vacation...


Hello my friends,

I'm back after a about 10 days or more due to an awful stiff neck. 


(Oh, and I'm having so much trouble with blogger. Fonts not changing when I when I change and update. Anyone else having issues?)

Anyhow,  painful stupor for about a week. Everything I read said that it would go away, just to take Advil. Ended up at the Urgent Care Center. :(

They looked at me. I cracked a smile. Thank God, I remembered to put my front tooth in. I'm in the middle of a front tooth implant. 

Don't ask. Okay, when I was a kid, I was roller skating down the sidewalk and Mr. Ireland's truck bumper got in my way.

Nurse took my BP. It was a tad bit high. No worries, my pacemaker was just checked. 

Get this, I asked if they could x-ray my neck. Doctor said, "No!" She left the room.

Nurse came in, he gave me a shot for pain. 

Oh great, a prescription for a muscle relaxant.


My diagnosis, Tension Headache.
My thinking, fracture, broken neck, nothing could be that painful and just be tension. Oh well, what do I know. 

$500.00 for tension headache. 

Oh, my sweet pharmacist. After reading the prescriptions, she knew why I could not look at her.

She looked at the prescriptions. First words out of her mouth...

"Mrs. Comer, you need a vacation!"

That one chair is waiting for me~

Good Songs Are Ageless...

I wish I still had my old record player! 


I'm in music heaven with Pandora Radio! 

Just today, I've listened to these oldies and so many, many more.


 Daydreaming is a wonderful thing.

Home and Tradition...

Good Morning, hope everyone had a good night and slept tight!

This is something dear to my heart, it's about remembering home and our traditional holiday dinners. 

I'm very happy to be the one taking on the joy of my mother's china and silverware. 

My memories of her are precious.  Oh the sweet memories of home and our traditional holiday dinners. Mom's tables were magnificent.

It will be a pleasure to set my table with the dishes she picked out as a young bride. Their meaning and emotional value is beyond description. 

Her china is made by Bellaire and the beautiful pattern is Juliana. I just love the scalloped edges. Her silverware is by Wallace and pattern is 
Grand Baroque. Thank you, Laura! I did get the magnifying glass out, sure helped!













Do any of you use your Mother's China and Silverware? 

Would love to hear all about it! 

Is it exciting to create a tablescape with her china and silverware? 

I can't wait! I'll try to  put my creative hat on soon!

Have a sweet, great and happy day!

Some fun coming up!
