"You Are My Valentine"

                    HAPPY VALENTINE TO ME. Had a good one. 2-14-2018 Perryton, TX


I enjoyed a wonderful Valentine lunch today at the Center. My son had sent money to pay for my lunch, and he was my sweetest, sweetheart today. I wish he could have been here, but he lives too far away, and is a very busy guy. He would have been proud of me if he could have seen my antique, red dress. It is the same dress I was wearing when I made the picture for the cover of my first book,” When The Angel Came,” eight years ago. I only wear this dress on Valentine’s Day. Because it is so red, red. I did have a nice time visiting with friends. Almost never do I leave that place before having a few laughs. That is something I can’t buy with money. Thanks to everyone who helped me have a happy valentine day.

Who wants to wash dishes and clean house after such a fun day? Not me, but I must. I wish I could find a doctor who could cure me of laziness. That’s my greatest ailment. My life is too short to waste it on work. But I wouldn’t change a thing. Past hard work is a tribute to why I’m so happy, and blessed now. I haven’t heard many complaints from my children, or friends. I suppose they are pleased with my laziness. I will say I have the best of the best, and I am thankful. If someone hits an off note in my chorus, I let them know it. I like perfect harmony in my joyful noise. Here is where the human fault comes into me. How many times do I have to ask God for forgiveness? Every day of my life. “Thank you Lord for forgiving me, and helping others to forgive me.”

Now that Valentine’s Day is about over, I look forward to another great dinner at the Museum of The Plains. A membership meal is provided for all members. This occasion is always well attended, and offers good food and fellowship. I just paid my yearly dues today, and am proud to be a member of this interesting place of history. It is a very large place, and is growing every year. Hats off to all who work so hard to make this place one of the best anywhere. Many social events are held there each year, and even some weddings are performed. There is a little church chapel about one hundred years old that has been moved there. Some people still like the vows of long ago. “Thank God for those.” After the wedding a large dinning room area in another part of the building awaits the reception, and harassment to the bride and groom. Yes, I will say again I am proud to be a member of such a nice place. May we always keep a vision of the past, and every person who contributed history to the museum.

God Bless
