So What's Been Going On?
Well, I've been so busy and the time has flown. The summer has come and gone in what seems like a blink of an eye.
I went to visit my precious grandkids [I have two now--a girl and a boy!] What a wonderful time I had with them. I had them all to myself and loved every minute of it. So much love and so much fun. God is so good! [for those of you who don't know, my granddaughter is a miracle child who had a rare condition -- died a few times during her 6 hrs on the ER table and then was given "no hope" -- thank you Lord for your mercy -- she is healthy and amazing!]
You already know I went to a number of concerts this summer, but since my last post, I was able to see Bucky Covington [again], Keith Anderson, Jason Michael Carroll [Jason is also a fav and is a special guy too], Jake Owens, and the American Idol tour [again] with my favorite AI being Jason Castro [keep your eyes and ears open for Jason Castro --he's the one with the dreads]. It was a fun summer. Of course my best part was getting to see Bucky because it is like seeing an old friend [even though I am a fan]. And just to share about Bucky, Bucky is one of only three male Country music stars since 2005 to have three consecutive top ten hits. Way to Go Bucky!! [oh, watch for Bucky in the new Hannah Montana movie coming out in 2009]
So, speaking of old friends, I spent more time this summer with Patty Rizzatello and Sandy Stroud. It is always fun to get together with them. I am missing the other part of our group -- Lindy Roberts -- but since she moved down south we haven't gotten together in a few years. Sandy lives far too but pops up occasionally. So, it is time again and I am going south to visit Sandy. It just so happens [cough, cough] that Bucky is playing in the town where Sandy lives so I will be getting to see a few old friends the same weekend! Looking forward to that.
I also have plans to go see Jason Castro in concert next month with Patti LaBelle -- now how cool is that!
I have been keeping in touch with a few classmates by email and phone. I am also on myspace and facebook so here and there I find someone or they find me. I have noticed though that a lot of people in our class do not use the computer. What's with that??? You have to advance technologicially to stay on top of things or the world will pass you by in a flash.
Well, since nobody actually is participating in this class blog anyway LOL, I am just gonna put it right out there and state my convictions. I absolutely am voting for McCain/Palin and I know that since I'm from NY, I am in the minority here. [Being from a Democrat family and you know my dad was a politician -- my dad would roll over in his grave if he knew his party had become what is has, this is my own choice] My convictions are my convictions, and they go deeper than geography, to me they are deeply rooted in scripture and I am responsible to God for my choices so I do not take making a choice lightly. Thank God we still have the freedom to state our own beliefs. So, that being said.. I still love my liberal friends and if anyone cares to post, you are welcome, but I will not participate in a heated debate because friendships are worth more than hitting someone over the head in anger to prove a point -- and since both sides obviously think they are right, it would just tear apart the ties of friendship.
Lastly, on a sad note, I was informed that our classmate, Ted Ruddiman, passed away on October 16, 2008 losing a battle with Cancer. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family. If you knew Ted personally in school or have kept in touch with him, I hope you treasure the memories.
God bless and Hugs!
