Our Love Story!

I wanted a picture of US on our Honeymoon. Garry placed his camera on a very big Cannon and ran over to me and SNAP! We have a picture of us on our Honeymoon. 

May 17, 1973 was our very first date. July 5th Garry asked me to marry him. (I said Yes!) On September 14th, we were married! This is Our Love Story! (I have this written down in our Wedding Book!)

I was in the middle of a terrible breakup and to help with that healing process. I flew from Missouri to Maryland to spend some time with my uncle and his wife. What was to be a 2-week visit ended up being the most romantic time of my life!! Within 5 months, I met, fell in love and married the only true love in my whole life. We both fell rather hard for each other rather quickly. When the time came that I was to return to Missouri.  Garry told me that he couldn't let me do that. Because he thought he would not see me again. So on July 5th he asked me to marry him. I said yes and then I cried! On September 14th we were married at the Bethesda Hospital Chapel in Bethesda, Maryland. (It's called Walter Reed now).That is where Garry I met. You see, he was stationed there as a Medical Photographer in the Navy. What we did was called our families and said that we were going to get married and that we would love to have them come to share the day with us. I kid you not! That is how we did it. We met each other's families the day before the wedding. It was kind of crazy but as you see it worked out rather nicely. So, during the 50 years Garry and I have shared some really great times. To some really awful times. We now have this wonderful family. Our beautiful daughters, Erika and Erin. Our wonderful grandchildren, Joey and Norah. I am ending this story here. But I suggest you keep up with my website. Why? I will be sharing all sorts of stories about our lives. Good and Bad! Happy and Sad! Yeah, I know it's corny, but it had to be said. LOL If you liked this post please leave a comment. Share your memories!

Are you a Bully? Or a Bullied?

Lately it seems that I hear about the subject, Bullies! More and more everyday. It is awful how out of hand it has become. Think about this for a minute. What makes a bully? Power, control, entitlement, popularity, jealousy and etc, etc. Is this you? Or do you have to deal with people like this?

I was bullied in school, at home and at work. I think I was also bullied while I was in the hospital as a patient with Covid. Now that may be going way too far but a bully, in my opinion. Is someone that is rude, disrespectful and has an attitude! Makes you feel worthless. I have had to deal with that my whole life. But while I was sick, I felt that my feelings didn't matter to some. I'll get into that another time in the Long Covid area. I came across a Website: stopbullying.gov. Check it out! This website covers it all!  And I will stop here to let you think about it! So...until the next thought!

                                                                                      Slow to Post!

I have thrown this idea or topic in my head for a few days now. I have been sick with Bronchitis. I have had some kind of illness since January to May. It Sucks! Usually, my head buzzes all day long so thinking can be difficult. I have things to say, and I will do that as soon as my head stops buzzing. When I have a cold, a fever I usually get my chronic cough so pissed off that I almost pass out, My Brain shuts completely down. Some call its Brain Fog. I call it a Pain in my Ass! Also Focusing on writing, Well shoot! I just deleted most of this Post! OK, I'm going to stop right here because I can't think anymore. Just be patient and hang in there with me because I will make this work!! That's it for now. See you soon!

How Do I Begin

It's scarry to look at a blank page and I know I have to start somewhere. So, I think each Header has to have a starter page to get the ball rolling. I like to keep most of my entries on the short side. So, I decided to start here in Kaydies Thoughts. Storyteller just didn't say anything to me. So here goes nothing.  The way I look at things is totally different than most people, but I have something to say. 

I will be writing in the Covid Title very soon. I have something that I really need to get off my shoulders. It was 2 years Jan 21, 2021, I came down with Covid. I almost died!

If you are interested jump over there. 

Writing is a challenge for me. You're welcome to leave a comment. Be kind and be productive!
