Throwback Thursdays and Other Mouths in Postcards 4

1984: A Mission Beach Plunge employee picnic. It’s amazing how nothing changes but the glasses. Those were really heavy glass.

2009: At grandson David’s High School Graduation.

I like “Throwback Thursdays” on Facebook. A few years ago, I actually got all the loose family photos scanned and filed by name on my computer. I got all my journal photos and doodles scanned too.

I’ve filed them by letter and name. My mother married three times, and I have many of the images from everyone’s lives. Easy access to materials for TBT’s. When I saw these two photos, I laughed. There’s my mouth open in the same odd way 25 years apart. Silly mouth.

Not so silly. We all haven’t heard any news from Seedys since she got pet sitters and left for Juneau. All I can do is send prayers out for her husband. I did hear from Granddaughter Beth who mailed a thank you note. At last. Our neighbor has become a three cat woman. The first two don’t like each other, and she has just changed the dynamic one more time. She is always trying to get rid of Zena the Warrior Kitty. If we could have a cat, we would take her.

Tomorrow is the big 50% off sale at work. We all have been working hard to get merchandise out on the floor for this. My friend Bill has double scheduled himself and won’t be there. Instead, before we open, he and I will come in and we will get one giant set of dishes priced and out. I can do the gym but not the pool.

New news. After many months of a collapsing Internet Service Provider, we are changing ISP’s. We think our old ISP is running out of money and is either going out of business or being sold. This is a shame as it has given consistently excellent service. It used to be the biggest, now it is small potatoes. Saturday morning, we will be switching to a cable service and get a new email address. I’m not impressed with changing everything over. I’m lazy and easily confused.
