Comments: Hey, Lynell, I followed your lead and cleaned out the file cabinet and two junk drawers. I now have 2-1/2 file boxes to take to the shredder. Next, I need to tackle my closet. When, or if, it warms up, Steve needs to hit the garage like a madman. When mom came to live with us, I had to clean out the guest room (which had become our storage room) and now we have things stacked in our room and it looks tacky. I think we just have way too much stuff.
Comments: When I had my knee replacement, my hospital roommate was there for a hip replacement. She was older than I and was up and scurrying around the room way before me. I have always been told that hip replacement is much easier than having a total knee. As with any major surgery, The difficulty is in the dedication to rehab. Rehab is not fun. Having had a multitude of orthopedic surgeries, I have found that, in the end, you will trade one set of problems for another. An example would be that while my knee allows me to walk easily without pain, it no longer bends more than 90 degrees. Small price to pay for being pain-free. Good luck I know you won't regret it!
Comments: If you tried to post earlier, the Guestbook was messed up. They have fixed it, so please repost.
Comments: Pat and I went to see American Hustle on New Year's Eve afternoon. We both enjoyed it. It is hard to get pass the language at first................I would even see it again now that i know what is going on. Would recommend it....it is entertaining.
Comments: So far for me...it's Jury duty this first of 2014,...ugh! If I get chosen, I hope it will be interesting.
Comments: So far, so good! Cleaned out a file cabinet drawer today. Found a warranty on cookware we bought in '73. Decided it was okay to throw it away.
Comments: I've always liked Leo's movies. He is playing more 'scuzball' types.. Remember the Howard Hughes' movie..? He must be fascinated with that type or maybe he's turned into one...! I heard on the news that he sold his 6.4 million dollar mansion for 17 million.. I guess he can afford to do what he wants...Looks like it would hurt his image in the long run... Hope your new year is 'Peaceful' so far...(and continues to be.)
Comments: Phil, I have heard the same things you said about that movie. Thanks for confirming the fact that I don't want to see it. HAPPY 2014 EVERYONE!!!!

Comments: Happy New Year to SOCites everywhere!
Comments: Happy New Year to all my classmates and their families
Comments: Had a great Christmas with my girls in the Big Apple, did events in 4 out of 5 boroughs! Saw 4 movies American Hustle # 1, Skyfall # 2 at my daughters, Bernie# 3 also at daughters have to be from the South to appreciate, Lone Wolf of WallStreet # 4 ,would rate it lower but only saw 4 movies. It is 3 hours of F word , gratitious sex and drugs with about 20 minutes of story. All the characters are/were scummy individuals with no redeeming values. I wanted bad things to happen to all of them! De Caprio plays a great scuz ball!
Comments: Hope all of your had a great holiday. I sure did. It is wonderful having a five year old granddaughter at Christmas time. Bill and I love to look at Christmas lights every year. Do any of you know of any good neighborhoods or streets in which to look? I would appreciate any suggestions. THANKS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Comments: Dr. Phil Berry offices are at Methodist Hospital.He is the very best. He is the doctor who just did the surgery for Dan Rose. He is also a friend and lived in my neighborhood in Oak Cliff and goes to Cliff Temple Baptist Church. I would trust him with my life. I do not know if he is taking new patients however.
Comments: I know what you mean about the charming demeanor of some orthopedists, having worked for a couple of them for ten years. My friend Lyla worked for them her whole career, and I've emailed her to ask who she would recommend for a total hip consultation at the Carrell Clinic. Good luck to you! I hope all goes well.
Comments: Dear All: Six months ago, I met my new Orthopedist. He told me then -- in that charming way that only doctors have -- that if I lived long enough, I would need hip replacement surgery on the right side. Well, I guess the good news is that I've lived long enough, as now he is telling me that I need it sooner, rather than later. If any of you have any knowledge/experience regarding hip replacements or know of a good hip specialist in DFW -- for my second opinion -- please email me. Thanks and Happy New Year! Yours, Phyllis
Comments: Hello, Everyone! Hope your Christmas Day was as amazing as ours has been. We met the family in Corsicana and had dinner at the La Pradera restaurant. which has a wonderful Thanksgiving and Christmas feast. We have had so much sickness and no one person was able to do everything, so we pooled our resources and has a lovely time! We had twenty-five present and the food was very good. I read the post from David Stewart and was so glad he connected with the class. I remember David as a wonderful young man. He was also in the Square Dance Group at Elisha M. Pease when we were there. Brenda Brown Kemp, Linda Nichols, and several others were also members of the group. I can remember the red gingham check dresses and those scratchy petticoats. We pray your New Year is healthy and prosperous. God Bless Us Everyone! Donna Gwin Libhart
Comments: Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday Dear Jesus Christ our Savior, happy birthday to you and mannnnny more!!!!!!!
Comments: David William Stewart you are on our unable to locate list. Please email me at peacheswalker@gmail.com and give me your current information. So sorry you missed our 50th high school reunion as we did not have your address. Glad you found us. Come join us some time. We will have a 70th birthday party in 2 years. I have finished my cornbread dressing, squash casserole, pea salad, deviled eggs, baked cookies and toffee yesterday. Now I am getting ready to head to McKinney to spend Christmas Eve with Cathy, my sister in law, Alicia - niece and Dante - nephew and their spouses, great niece Arabella and great nephew Jae. Christmas Day at my house with my other nephew Michael and great niece Ashley, and his family, Rodger and my mother. We are brining her her tomorrow. Please pray she will make it and last for a little while at least. I am excited. Just had to wish my SOC buddies a very Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday Jesus!
Comments: Merry Christmas, everyone! 
Comments: Yes, Johnnie has not changed at all. Still the same dashing, black haired, physically fit guy that he was in high school. Wait, I was looking in the mirror and lost my train of thought for a second!
Comments: Hi, David! Long time since we roamed the halls of old SOC High. Hope all is well in your world and that the past 50 years have left you in a state of good health and relative happiness. Are you still in the Houston area? I'm in The Woodlands (since 1995). Last I heard about Judy McGowan is that she landed in Maryland. If you want her contact info, email me at the blue link in the upper right corner. Too bad you no longer have your Yearbooks (neither does Peaches). If you did then you could consult them and look me up. Amazingly, I look EXACTLY the same as in 1963. Ask anyone.
Comments: I vaguely remember David Stewart.. Merry Christmas...wherever you are.. 28 degrees in Gatesville..right now... Merry Christmas...to every one..
Comments: Been a long time folks. Lots of memories come to mind - and regrettably lots of memories lost in the process as well. I certainly remember Peaches - we were in classes as far back as E M Pease, along with Annette Cross. I am sure Annette does not remember me, but we were confirmed into the Episcopal church together. Peaches as I recall you were a cheer leader at SOC? I used to have albums but they were lost in floods, moves, and so on over the years. So if anyone remembers me I would certainly like to hear from you and perhaps we can bring each other up to date. By the way, does any one know Judy McGowan ? Thanks David
Comments: David and I looked at Lonnie's video from the 50th reunion today. It is very good, and I would never have known he had a computer calamity in the middle of editing it. Thank you, Lonnie!
Comments: Not sure where that question mark came from. Sorry.
Comments: Miss Loraine certainly is a special person. Take her a bite of cake to taste. Nothing wrong with the taster! My cousin is also 92, as is a friend I have lunch with once a week. Both my 92 year olds are with it?
Comments: My mother, Loraine will be 92 tomorrow. I love this woman so much! Her nurse will call me tomorrow so I can sing happy birthday to her. I have always called her first thing in the morning of her birthday to sing to her. She is such a very very special person. Since she is on the feeding tube I cannot get her a cake or anything food wise. She really does not need anything. She told me all she wanted was for me to be with her which, of course, I will. She never complains. I was so blessed to have such a special mother who has become my best friend through the years.
Comments: So fun to see the pictures. Thank you Lynell. AND, thank you John for the update on Danny. |
