Smile!

The road has had some lonely times
The hills presented a difficult climb
But the joys I’ve lived, love I’ve felt
Are the hand that life for me has dealt.

The mistakes I’ve made were tragic then
But I learned so much, made great friends.
The aches and pains that come with age
Are a part of turning another page.

When I awake to another dawning.
Stretching, standing, lots of yawning.
I have to marvel I made it this long.
That I’m still singing life’s happy song!

About Momma

I was 77-years-old on February 22 and I'm amazed to see it. Mother of two sons and one daughter (Bloggers SEB and Cindyisms are two of them). Grandmother of three. Retired after 29 years+ at Michigan Bell Telephone and ten+ years with The Oakland Press. I was active with the telephone company union and a Dale Carnegie graduate. I work at crocheting, knitting, making ornaments, and other projects. With my husband I can 300 or 400 half pints of jam, chutney, plus cabbage relish, pickled beets and cinnamon fruit every summer to give away. I was clown doing parades, parties, and picnics for about 15 years. My other passions are music from the 50s through the 70s, reading, and of course blogging!
