Good evening! Wednesday blog! I know the clocks have all fallen back an hour! If I could change time, I would go way back to 1956! I was 4! Denny was 13 that year! Already a teenager! We lived in different worlds, for sure! If I had known him then, I would have looked up to him, in many ways! I would have a crush on him! He would think of course, you are just a baby! I would have had many dreams about the day I would grow up! How I would look, and he would see me differently! As a grown woman! We would listen to all of the oldies together! We still love the oldies! Of course, I am a dreamer, a hopeless romantic, I yearn now, for our future, that is changing, day by day! To be able to turn time around, it would erase a lot of memories that were made with other people! I do have a story about us! My first husband and I, with friends he worked with, were out for the evening! I couldn’t have been more than 19! We went to a bar, in North Toledo! There was a man sitting at the bar that worked with my husband and friend! That mans name was Denny Reed! That was 1971, Denny was 29! Years later everyone was divorced, he gave that ticket! Do not laugh at destiny! Our story is unique in my mind, my heart, my soul! I have always believed we were meant to be together! Not perfect, by any stretch of the imagination! But, always love! We came together, blended our families and added one more! If I could have one wish, one prayer answered, it would be by the ocean, on the beach, singing oldie music and dancing! Kicking and splashing water until a wave would knock us down! If any of you are dreamers or hopeless romantics! If you are still in good health, make those dreams come true! My Denny was a workaholic! We had a lot of vacations! Great memories! Denny worked until he got sick in 2013! He still worked and never enjoyed a day of retirement! Everything in moderation! Even working! Any day, is a good day, to have a good day! Not scripture, but, wise words! God is good! I’ll say it again! In heaven we will be able to pick any of these wonderful things! Keep my eyes on the prize, eternal life with Jesus! He is my strength, my rock, my Redeemer, my friend! When I feel there is no one, He is the only one! Keep the faith, run the race! It will be worth it in the end! Goodnight! God bless!❤️🤗🤗❤️
