  1. Thank you, April. I had my mom so much longer than my dad, thankfully, but there are still questions that I wish I had asked my mom.❤️ Thank you so much, Deb.😘
  2. Thank you, Deb.😘 How awful this happened to your wife as a child. I can't even imagine! Thank you, George. My Mom was a young widow, who lived to the age of 92.❤️
  3. Thank you, Greg. You are so right about questions we wish we could ask. I think that may be one of the reasons that our daughters gifted both Jim and I with the subscription to our own Storyworth book with question suggestions that we could write about. For example, "what was your mom like when you were a child? What was your 21st birthday like? etc. I finally finished my book with 52 stories for our daughters and grandchildren to read. Thank you so much, Bonnie.😘
  4. Congratulations on his pitching last night, and on his team's first win of the Season. Glad to hear Ricky is doing so well!
  5. Today marks 43 years since my Dad died at the age of 61. He was a Foreman working on the 2nd Avenue Subway project when he fell down 25 feet, head first. He was a very healthy, strong man who never smoked in his life. He remained in a coma for a week before finally passing, which was a Blessing, due to his extensive injuries.
  6. Our hotel in Rome also had a very small elevator. Just the two of us and our two pieces of luggage fit inside.
  7. @jmh2006 Jen, my heart goes out to you, Dave, Zachary, and your sister Martha. I know how close you were to your Dad. You talked about him to me during our Beyond cruise. Btw, you look just like your Mom. (((Hugs)))❤️
  8. With all of the posts about Christmas Cactus', Easter Cactus', I've been silent about my experience with my Cactus years ago. It was really weird, but the Cactus I had had never, ever bloomed. Not one bud. It lived on my kitchen window sill for a very, very long time. When my daughters were Freshmen in High School, I found out that I was pregnant. I was 40 years old, and was taking College courses while working in the school system. My daughters were elated, while I at first was beside myself. I couldn't believe this was happening, but I then accepted this and actually began to look forward to it. When I was 12 weeks pregnant, I unfortunately wound up in the hospital where I miscarried the baby. It was pretty upsetting, not only for me, but for Jim and the girls, also. When I got home and walked into the kitchen, my Cactus not only had buds, but it had flowered. I know God was letting me know that He is here for me.
  9. You seem to be a bit of a risk-taker, Mark! Any misfortunes after visiting Otto's Robert the Doll? I sure hope not! When we were in New Orleans years ago, one of our daughters asked us to pick up a "mojo bag" for her, which we did!
  10. Thank you for taking us along on your cruise, Sue! Safe travels tomorrow!✈️
  11. I am so very sorry to hear that you must leave your World cruise. Your pictures have been awesome, along with your commentaries. I showed my DH your pictures of Viet Nam. Jim served in the Army there during the Viet Nam War. He was very thankful to see your pictures. Best wishes to you with regard to your family situation back home.🙏 Safe travels.
