You're right about kids and food. One birthday meal I had was so big, I couldn't quite finish it. My dad was very understanding and complimented me on how much of the huge plateful of food I'd managed to eat. It took about 30 minutes for the rest of the family to eat what they could, box up the rest and get back to the house... at which point I ate a fairly large bowl of cereal. Dad was a bit less understanding about that.

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.

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!

Calling It What It Is!

The latest mass shooting in Uvalde, has once again brought the gun debate to the forefront of the news. It's hard to believe that our Senators can't come up with a bill that will tackle the problem.

I saw and add for Jimmy Fallon show where he said "I'm required to get a license to go fishing, but I can go buy a AR15 Rifle with large magazine of bullets and nothing is needed"! Why does someone need to own a AR15 rifle?

Something is wrong with this picture. The gun owners say guns don't kill people, people kill people. Then if people kill people then why don't you enact the laws that keep people from purchasing guns.

This will continue because of copycat gunmen who want to kill more than the last mass shooting suspect. These gunmen are boys who I guess want to make a name for themselves.

Somebody help stop the insanity!

Life is Good - God is Great
