Family does create memories, some wonderful, some best forgotten, but memories nonetheless.

In response to "Remembering Disneyland "

When was the last time you were at Disneyland? I bet it's changed a lot since it opened in 1955! Or even since your engagement visit in 1971! We live nearby and visit a few times a year, and it seems like they're always improving, modifying, or replacing something!

I love these memories - thank you for sharing. I think that's a great proposal spot!!

We're getting a new Universal theme park here in the UK. It's in a county that has very little else of interest - hoping it will provide these kind of magical experiences for the next generation!

Praying 🙏 I feel for you! I have Medi-Cal and I keep getting the runaround from doctors and my health jnsurance being stingy. I would be interested in whether or not things work out this time, if you do not mind. I am a Sister in Christ, and a prayer warrior! I will do my best to be here as much as I can be.

As you warm up we cool down. Temps are certainly warming here. As to the reasons that is still out there.
Hope you get your medical stuff sorted OK. You certainly don't need stress of unexpected bills!!

Ah, Spring. It always seems to keep us guessing then pops out. I don't think it likes Summer which is why it disappears so quickly.

Good that you have copies and can document all your interactions with the medical payment paperwork. If collection ever contacts you, you can give them the details as well. They don't like being stuck in the middle either but usually will double-check before bothering you further.

In response to "Moving On "

I've been doing Bible reading plans for the past few years and have really appreciated the additional insight and context they can provide. Especially for those parts of the Bible that can feel very dense or hard to understand!

In response to "Beginning Again"

I've always wanted to do a Bible study, but I don't have a lot of spare time in my schedule. I guess that's why I like Lent and Easter, because I get the Ken Utner "Lil" books (one is black and one is white) and they have a nice 5 min message that I can read and then just let the message sink in through the day.

In response to "Saying Goodbye To 2024"

It's good to reflect on 2024 with its ups and downs and realizing that it could have been worse or better depending on our perspectives. I like the expression, tricked out, that sounds really fancy. The next time we renovate, I will use that term. HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Repeating Old Thoughts

Over the years I've noticed as people get older they tend to repeat thoughts.

Now that I've crossed that threshold, I've noticed that I'm doing the same thing. Of course my wife will tell me "I told her that already" but other people being more polite don't usually mention that I've told them this before.

Getting older does bring new challenges, and some are not easy to address.

My last two posts are a prime examples of this. I believe that I've covered these same two topics before, if one was to go back through my blogs. I don't know how far back you would have to go, but I'm pretty sure they will be there!

I can only ask forgiveness and hope that I don't repeat myself again. I can't make any promises but I'll try to do my best!

Have a wonderful weekend
Remember
Life is Good and God is Great
