EYE EXAM.....

Bill and I went to the eye doctor yesterday for our yearly eye exam. Neither of our eyes had changed since last year. PTL! He actually said Bill had healthy eyes. I told him "Thank Goodness, It's so good to know he still has SOMETHING healthy and still working"! He laughed! He wrote new prescriptions so we can have new glasses. Mine are five years old and Bill stepped on his..... they don't even look like a pair of glasses..... he has been wearing his prescription sun glasses for six months. So after Christmas we will go to the glasses store.....hoping it will be five more years before I have to go again!!!! "MERRY CHRISTMAS" to all my blogging friends.

WHERE I'M FROM........

I am from hayfield and blackberry patches, gathering eggs and selling them to my Daddy in his store. I am from a house with no bath....but a path. I am from cherry trees where I climbed and ate more than I carried home.....from digging potatoes in the rich earth. I am from skinny dipping and swinging on grape vines, two room school house, sitting on the front porch while my Mother played the guitar.....wringer washers and wash tubs. I am from playing the piano, the accordian and making playhouses in the woods....hide and seek, jumping rope and May I. From: Raleigh's Liniment, Cracker Jacks and Castor Oil.....Revival Meetings and Baptisms in the river....catalogs and feed sack skirts. From: "Pretty is only skin deep" to "Always mind your manners." I am from Methodist, Baptist, Wednesday night prayer meetings and shouting Hallaujah. I am from the Volunteer state of Tennessee with lakes and mountains, race cars, beans, cornbread and red eye gravy. We always called it "God's Country." I am from family get togethers, dinner on the ground, singing with my sisters, a Mother with a heart of gold and a Daddy with a strict hand. A grandfather who always looked to see if I had my fingernails painted and a Grandmother who could squeeze your heart out! Yes, I came from a family of seven siblings and I have told you where I came from. It was wonderful and I wouldn't change a thing if I could. Now let me tell you where I am going...."To Where The Streets Are Paved With Gold." Some days, I can hardly wait!
