Only a Few Issues

As of late I have had many the lad ask me how I have managed to keep in contact with so many old friends. Well, to answer that I honestly have no idea other than I (as my husband says) have a memory like an Elephant so that helps a bit because I remember just about every human I have come into contact with. Now lets take that a step further and with remembering people, there have been a few chosen individuals or events that I have, let's say memorabilia, as in pictures, movie stubs, newspaper clippings, letters, those sorts of things that I have kept. Well last night I was looking through an envelope that had pictures from my church history trip when I happened upon a newspaper clipping from when I was in the 6th grade. I am not quite sure how it ended up with the pictures but all I could do was chuckle a bit because you see this newspaper clipping is no ordinary clipping it is actually, well let me just put it up here for all to see.


This is a shot of the band at Matt Kelly 6th Grade Center, both Jimmy and I were in the band, he played the Trumpet and I the flute. We use to catch each other staring at the other, smile and then turn away a little embarrassed. I saved this all these years because you see Jimmy is in the back row and 3 over and it gave me butterflies even though it is the back of his head! I am somewhere in the front two rows but who really cares about that, it is all about the TRUMPETS!!

Yes, I have a few issues and the older I get the more apparent they become! Maybe one day they will take me away and lock me up, but until then I'll blog! :)
