Childhood Slogans

What are the jingles you remember from your childhood? Do you remember "Coke,it's the real thing." How about the one for ''Slinky" ? Not having tv or listening to the radio now I can't say as I'm up to date on the jingles out there now, but they were a fun thing from the past, I remember snazzy littles tunes for "Mc Donald's is our kind of place. . . " & then, later on, "two all beef patties,special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions all on a sesame bun."
When I was little, before we moved up to the farm, I remember my Dad getting us Filet o' Fish sandwiches in a box that turned into a puppet theater by punching out a cardboard piece. Enclosed was also a plastic bag type puppet of Ronald himself. It was a treat I looked so forward to. How about you-what were the treats,the little things that made an ordinary day just a little bit special for you.

Dear Blog, I had given up on you, sure I would never be inspired again. At the freshly turned age of 50 I am hoping inspiration will return. Some of the things I'd like to write about are deep, some dark &/or painful. Does the spilling forth of pain help to release it? At times, I think so. At other times, I hope so.
Right now, I'm dealing with alot of pain. My back is out, the muscles bulging & knotted, leaving me incapable of moving. I've been through this too many times already for my liking. I would like a healthy, capable body, strong & readily able to fulfill my wishes. I'd like to be pain-free, to move freely like I did long ago.
I revelled in physical activity as a young girl. It felt good to move. I remember the sensation of relishing the strength & grace I felt in my moves. It was as nothing to go to school, waitress & go dancing. Riding a bike,walking miles in a day didn't phase me.
In my thirties, my body became sabotaged with pain. Strange things were going on that I had no idea how to control, resolve or live with.

Hoping to do Card Classes to raise money for my Birthday fund! As our family has delightfully grown there are quite a few more people to remember & honor on their special day. I hope this will take off as it is something I can work around my physical limits with! Sign - up for a class!!!

Dear Blog-

Ahh,Dear Blog, what shall I do about you??! I cannot think of any inspiring thing to write. . .Oh! Yes, that's right, hubby & I are trying to lose 10 lbs. It is really tough to change our bad ways but it is a huge help to have one another in it together.
