Since Halloween is just days away I thought I’d share a picture of me and my daughter on her first Halloween. She was a little mummy for her mummy! LOL. My daughter was just three months old in this photo.
#ThrowbackThursday Let’s Go Mets!
Baseball players are superstitious and I guess so are baseball fans. Last two times I wore my Mets sweatshirt they won, so I’m wearing it again for the decisive Game 5. If there is karma, they should win because that Utley play was horrible and affected the outcome of the game. So here’s me from this morning with my lucky sweatshirt.
And for good measure, a real Throwback Thursday. This is a picture of my daughter and I at Shea Stadium for a 2007 division playoff game against the Cardinals. Actually, it was a rained out game and we sat in the stadium, getting wet, until they decided not to play. We had a fun time and returned a day or so later only to watch our beloved Mets lose to the Cardinals. Hoping today’s outcome is way different.
#ThrowbackThursday Me & My sis
Welcome to another Throwback Thursday. It’s always fun sharing with you! This is a picture of me and my sis back when we were really young! I think I was about 4 or 5 in this photo and she was 2.
#ThrowbackThursday Do You Remember?
This is a picture I took at a library exhibition a couple of years ago. I had to take it because it reminded me of my mom. Why? Many many years earlier I had the opportunity to work with my mom before she passed. It was a wonderful year and one of the things she loved was to go across the street from our office to the last place that had what you see below and get their vegetable plate. So we trudged over there, loaded with change and it was an experience.
So post in the comments if you remember what these are and if you ever used one!
#ThrowbackThursday Happy Birthday, Mom!
Today would have been my mom’s 89th birthday. Unfortunately, I lost her when she had just turned 55 to lung cancer. If you smoke, please please stop so you can have lots more time with your family. It’s hard to imagine, but my mom has now been gone from my life more than she was in it. She was my best friend, a role model, and a mentor. I miss her every day of my life. Today’s Throwback Thursday is my lovely mom, who will be forever young.
#ThrowbackThursday A Tropical Honeymoon
Wow, it seems like yesterday, but it isn’t! Hubby and I treated ourselves to a honeymoon in Hawaii and had a lovely time. So much so that we did another visit to Hawaii for an anniversary. Our first trip was to Oahu and our second was to Maui. I have to say I liked Oahu a lot better since there was more to do. Hubby and I are not sit by the pool people. We like to see and visit local spots and Oahu certainly had a lot of them. Besides Pearl Harbor, which was an incredibly moving experience, we enjoyed snorkeling in Hanauma Bay and an intimate luau (Just us and 5,000 other close friends!). Okay, it wasn’t 5000, but it certainly wasn’t “intimate.”
Here is a photo of us on that first trip! I think this was on a dinner cruise that we did.
#ThrowbackThursday Happy B’day Sammie!
It’s so hard to believe that you came into my life so long ago! You’ve brought joy, happiness and life into our lives. You are my daughter and my best friend and I am blessed to have you in my life. Happy B’day. Wishing you many many more! Wishing us many many more together.
