Papa’s World- Thoughts – Memories and Family!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

A long time ago – we all went to the beach on Oak Island-

Here is a picture of the grandkids –

Oldest to the left down to the youngest on the right!

If only we could turn back time!

Present – last summer – we went back to the beach as a family.

Here again is the picture of the grandkids-

Left to right – oldest to youngest.

While we can not turn back time –

We can celebrate each year of family time!

When Cassidy and Taylor were small –

we lived in Brambleton, Va.

Here we are at the town center in front of the theater.

Today – they are in 8th. grade-

MEMORIES OF TIMES GONE BY!

Every year for the past six-plus years –

Bob and Pam have made it a point in their RV journeys –

To stop in and spend some time with us.

We try to get in a round of golf or two.

TWO GRADE SCHOOL BUDDIES REHASHING CHILDHOOD!

That day in 1982 – June 25th. that we were married-

combining two sets of children-

a start of a journey that has lasted 43-plus years!

Positive thoughts reflect positive families.

Sherry and I working and bringing donations to the Sunset Beach Pier for Hurricane Helena victims!

Our group of friends who try to get together every four months –

years and years we have been doing this –

It feels oh so good when your drive ends up in the fairway –

past the 150-yard marker to the green!

This does not happen all that often for me –

but when it does – I take a picture for a good memory!

This happens to me –

and when it does –

I bite my tongue and count to ten-

it just is not worth the mental thoughts-

Peace – love and good thoughts help the reactions!

This is Sarah when she was little –

our small fashion diva!

Her smile – her way of offering to help – she now is a beautiful young lady –

about to graduate.

But – I shall always remember little Sarah-

a special place in my heart!

When they were small –

Taylor and Cassidy –

today they are 14 years old –

Taylor is almost as tall as me and Cassidy catching up!

But there was a time they would come and crawl up into my lap!

Those times and memories are PRICELESS!

Hope – love and peace-

caring – hugging and helping-

Brings peace of mind to us all!

HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS – AND OURS IS HERE!

Sarah – Ella and Maddy –

the three oldest granddaughters-

How the time has gone by – now adults –

and now about to begin their lives.

I shall always remember them as little in my mind and heart!

A little humor to start your day off with a smile!

Remembering efforts to help the people-

from the Hurricane Helena disaster.

Purchasing supplies for those in need –

MY GOOD VIBE FOR TODAY!

When my son and daughter-in-law visited last fall –

Shawn and Trisha –

FAMILY brings GOOD VIBES!

Great longtime friends bring GOOD VIBES to our lives!

A picture of my father – second from the left –

Who passed away in 1969 when I was 19 years old-

It brings me a memory of GOOD VIBES!

Our volunteer work for the Protection of Sea Turtles –

here – our team on one of the nests –

that we sat on until they hatched –

and made it to the ocean-

On Ocean Isle Beach –

BRINGING GOOD VIBES!

Our granddog “MARLEY” –

BRINGS SMILES AND GOOD VIBES!

Papa’s World – Some thoughts and good vibes!

/ Tom / 1 Comment

May this new year bring you good vibes –

loving – caring – happiness.

If you are ever visiting NWPA –

You may want to see “THE KINZUA AQUIDUCT”!

Located just outside Mount Jewett, Pa.

Built-in the 1800s as a way to ship Coal from this Pa. site over the KINZUA VALLEY-

Where Native Americans roamed-

thousands of years ago-

It has become a State Park –

A Tornado came through-

and took half of it down.

Today you can walk out on it –

and peer straight down 300 feet-

To the floor of the valley through a glass floor!

Warning –

not for the squeamish –

like me – who do not like heights!

But it is worth the time to visit the museum-

and see the history behind all this!

MY GOOD THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!!!!

One day many years ago –

Our twin granddaughters –

came to help bag up leaves!

IF I COULD ONLY TURN BACK TIME!

My good thought for the day!

The same twin granddaughters –

Now if I could make time stand still!

MY GOOD THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

FRIENDS – lifetime friends –

Sharing good times – golfing –

all those years –

and still getting together!

MY GOOD THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

My hope is that today –

I have given you some GOOD THOUGHTS –

And some GOOD VIBES to start your day!

LIFETIME FRIENDS –

Papa’s World – HUMOR – laughs and smiles!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

Smiling in Today’s World –

Laughing –

a way to combat negative airwaves!

I am sharing this today-

to bring some positive vibes to your day!

Well – I will be D—ed!

How true is this!

But it is a form of humor and a way to relax in today’s world!

Go hit the links –

but stay away from this BAD BOY –

Riding the cart fast and away!

Saw this on a recent golf outing!

Yes –

this happens all the time –

I obey the signs-

and someone who feels entitled-

just ignores them –

and crowds in –

Well – that person does not get in front of me if I can help it!

NOT FUNNY-

but at least it stops the frustration of this happening!

OKAY – the best for last –

And I think it says a lot –

and is funny!

I hope this brings some humor to your day –

Some smiles and chuckles.

Our granddaughter when she was small!

Papa’s World – Today – all types of HUMOR!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

LOL- going shopping –

I know there are bargains –

but I really shop with a purpose –

I have a list and I go into the aisles looking for that item!

My wife is the BARGIN HUNTER!

I mainly push the cart –

And at times –

I sneak an item in! LOL

If by myself –

I just get what is on the list –

I could “SHOP” but I am not wired that way!

I really wish I could like wine!

And now in my “SENIOR” years –

Watching my weight-

and sugar intake –

I occasionally have a beer –

one of those light beers-

with fewer carbs and calories!

My normal day is a cup of coffee-

before I read the paper online –

Then I write my next blog –

And the rest of the day-

is “WATER” usually with ice!

At my age –

I just do not have the desire to drink like I used to!

I can relate to this –

I am not the “TECHIE”-

that my wife is!

I will ask her –

“WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO MY PHONE OR COMPUTER”?

“I DIDN’T DO ANYTHING – IT JUST HAPPENED” –

as her eyes roll! LOL

But – I do drive her –

to wherever she needs to be –

“DRIVING MISS SHERRY” has become my senior moment in time!

Thanks for reading PAPA’S WORLD!

CHEERS TO YOU FROM STEVE – DIANE – SHERRY and PAPA!

I will continue my next blog –

with some more “TYPES OF HUMOR”!

Giving to those who have less – church – love peace and happiness are what we strive for in our lives!

Family – far away but never forgotten – always looking toward visits – love – smiles and humor!

Laugh – it makes for a good day! Smile – it is free!

Friendships are enduring – over time and far away places!

Friends can be forever!

Listen to those who are aged – listen to those who are young and innocent.

Listen – talk less and strive to understand!

THINGS OF LIFE!

Papa’s World – POSITIVE THOUGHTS AND HUMOR!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

Love this quote – we explore old roads – not knowing where they will lead.

We walk different trails – parks – beach – community –

Walking for health – to remain as healthy aging as we can.

We try to maintain a sense of humor – laughing and remembering “SMILES ARE FREE”!

The troubles of the World – our country –

All can cause so much unhappiness – so we balance that with positive thinking – maintaining

clear mental health.

Helping others – giving what we can – volunteering – working with those less fortunate.

Our lives have been full of dirt paths – always exploring – always finding new things and adventures!

I live for the day – making tomorrow adventure filled and memories – blessed to be here – and always searching for new adventures!

Bring humor – life needs it – making funny memories!

I start every morning the same way – a cup of coffee – smelling the roasted flavor – life at its best!

I need to look no further than the mirror – but It is my passion – no mater how many trees I hit! LOL

THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE! LOL

PAPA’S WORLD – BEING THANKFUL HUMOR AND SMILES!!!!

Papa’s World – Laughter – Humor – Thoughts!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

LOL – Good day –

start your day with some laughs –

humor and good thoughts!

Every morning I have a routine –

I start by getting ready to take a shower –

Brush my teeth – take my Meds and Supplements.

Shave – Shower – and make my only cup of coffee for the day!

Then – check outside –

I have been moving plants in at night on the front porch –

and out again in the morning –

first rays of the sunlight!

WHY?

Because the Deer are eating all the flowers and buds!

No matter what I buy to stop them –

they munch them down to the stalks!

Then – I go into the office with my coffee-

and read the paper online.

Now – it is time to write my next blog after posting the days blog!

By the time I start writing –

Sherry is up and about.

My morning routine takes about two hours in total!

Then – off to make the bed –

and get dressed!

So – starting the day with laughter is the way I set the rest of the day feeling “GOOD”!

We have calendars to keep track of daily excursions.

Appointments – doctor – dentist – inspections – oil changes –

and tire rotations.

Haircuts – nails(SHERRY) – grocery stores (THREE OF THEM)

Gas – and trips into NMB or Shalotte.

We like to golf in the afternoons when we golf.

And we walk and exercise.

RETIREMENT is rewarding in different ways –

But the most I like about it –

I DO NOT HAVE TO THINK ABOUT RISING AND GOING TO WORK!

LIVE LIFE TO EXPRESS!

Our thoughts when we moved down to the borders of N.C. and S.C. –

was to go back three or four times a year.

And of course –

they come down a couple times a year.

We stay in contact with zooms –

calls and messages.

Our senior golden years are full of things we like to do.

Living as healthy as we can –

taking our supplements (19) years.

We are aging but we try to age healthy.

Living life to the plus and living life one day at a time.

Whatever you choose – make the best of it!

PAPA’S WORLD – LAUGHTER – HUMOR – THOUGHTS!

Papa’s World – Some GOOD THOUGHTS!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

LOL! Some humor to start the day off!

Getting older each day –

requires stress relief from some funny sayings!

But – also –

glancing outside at the first rays of the Sun-

Living here in the South-

mostly is shorts and tee-shirt kind of weather.

Which – I might say –

goes a long way in setting the day ahead for me.

I glance at my calendar –

This is the only way I have to remember –

what is in store for the day!

Other than every Tuesday gather the garbage –

and get it ready to set out that night –

for pickup sometime on Wednesday!

On this day in question –

my duty is driving the wife to an appointment.

Funny how small things in life become

‘WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY”?

And the thought crosses my mind every time I am asked-

“WHAT DO YOU DO ALL DAY IN RETIREMENT”?

Well – I answer –

“I REALLY DO NOT HOW I FOUND TIME TO WORK “!

TRASH DAY – just another sample of keeping busy in retirement –

Keeping an eye on the gas tank-

and the prices go up and down –

Knowing where to buy that next tank of gas!

Muldane as it is –

retirement has changed my outlook on life as a Senior!

I find myself waiting for thunder and rainstorms –

To enjoy the noise of nature-

and the after –

of the noise from the woods –

frogs and other insects making loud noises.

Isn’t retirement relaxing?

It is for me –

doing what I want to do –

Not what that job required.

Every day is different –

that is why I have a calendar on my desk.

Time to go and get dressed –

time to have my morning breakfast shake.

My wife is up –

and make the bed.

Check the flowers outside –

did the deer eat them?

Look at the trees blooming as in Crepe Myrtles –

Funny how different colors bloom later than others!

All these questions and thoughts –

“HOW DID I EVER WORK FOR 48 1/2 YEARS?

This is the GOOD THOUGHTS –

of retirement for me!

I hope today starts your day with livinglifedoingitmyway.blog day!

Papa’s World – thoughts – humor – kindness!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

This is Sherry and I am very proud of her –

always thinking of kind deeds and helping people!

She volunteers – time –

and resources

and asks for nothing in return.

Helping people and giving what we can –

“ALLOW KINDNESS TO SPREAD”!

Both of us love to golf –

and when we can – with friends -sometimes just ourselves!

It is always a risk-reward –

it is that one shot you can remember that brings us back!

In golf – I think you have to have humor –

because it can and does humble you!

When a bad shot or putt occurs –

just think there is always the next one to make you smile!

To us and our “WHY” of life –

Giving what we can and not expecting any returns!

Expressing “GOOD THOUGHTS” daily –

Living is a code to us in that we try as much as we can to make life easy for those in need!

“GOOD THOUGHTS” daily are my way to maintain a perspective in this time of anxiety!

Today I share I share GOOD THOUGHTS – HUMOR and KINDNESS –

being with friends is PRICELESS!

PAPA’S WORLD – THOUGHTS – HUMOR and KINDNESS!

Papa’s World – GOOD HUMOR and LAUGHS!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

In day-to-day life – so much negative news floats about – theories – untrue stories –

I try every day to ignore such things – if I want to know – I fact-check – otherwise –

I pay no attention to it – LIFE IS TOO SHORT to become involved with all the “NOISE”!

I look for the funny side of life – I marvel at history and discoveries –

I would love to be involved in a dig for history and finds!

Help one another – share good vibes and humor!

I would be rich! LOL

Life is about discoveries of friends – love for families and seeing one another as often as you can.

The epitome of success in my book is the friendships you have and care about!

I take pictures for memories – looking back fondly on those memories.

I am selective on who I allow to post on my page – I do not like political posts either way.

I do not want to be convinced or shown what that person believes to be right or wrong!

But – many funny posts on Facebook make me laugh or smile – those I like.

Keeping up with friends – neighbors and family –

What makes me smile will be the ones who remain on my site!

Many people are going through health issues today – especially in our age group of BABYBOOMERS!

So many are selling and using cash here in the Carolinas to downsize and live the dream life!

Stay positive – we found ours and yours could also be here.

We left the hustle and bustle of traffic – the roads clogged and people rushing to and from work –

to find peaceful living here – it can and does get busy –

but being in traffic at 35 MPH vs. 65 MPH is way better!

We attempt to play golf – it is a form of relaxation for me – being out in nature – now I am not that good –

I struggle at times – hit a couple good shots and then all goes South! LOL!

But – it is that next great one that brings me back for another go at it!

I know my limits but still at times I try the next to impossible – and when I hit it and make the shot –

all that came before is soon forgotten and that one shot remains in my memory!

I hope today my blog brings some joy – humor and laughter your way –

Thanks for reading and as always HGD!

In today’s world – seeing all the news – hearing all the news – I just have to have a way to relax-

and not let it bother me!

That is a reason I love golfing – out on the course in nature –

Here you see all types of critters and birds!

You learn not to pursue a ball if you see an unchained dog –

a fence or in deep grass where snakes are!

Water – leave it be – there are gators in most ponds!

My game and losing golf balls,

has improved if I stay in the middle of the fairway! LOL

Golf is my release for all the negative news of today – I do not watch cable news –

Just riding the cart – sun and warm breeze –

The next shot and if I make a good one –

well I will be back – if not a good one –

THEN I STILL WILL BE BACK! LOL

I am on Facebook – but I unfollow a lot of posters who are so political –

I do not need that in my life

and it is the far left and far right!

I enjoy reading people’s trips –

adventures and families!

I enjoy seeing different lands –

cities and countries.

It can be enjoyable without all the noise of political interference!

Staying positive – seeing nature

and the beauty of the world we live in!

This blog today is a positive blog –

one with humor and just being nice!

I hope this brings a smile to you –

and let you know that there is a life without negative thoughts!

Just a few humorous thoughts for the day – a way to start your day with a smile!

In today’s world of negative news – here is something to make a way to start the day in a positive manner – smiling!

Playing golf – this one struck me as funny – a sense of humor – a smile – a laugh – sit back – sip your coffee!

I want to believe but I need proof and as Mulder says “THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE”! LOL

Throw in a thought – a lot of truth is here!

LOL – how many times have you seen this!!!!!!!!

I hope this started your day with smiles – sip your coffee – tea or drink water – a beer – just be happy!

Papa’s World – Our granddaughter “SARAH”!

/ Tom / Leave a comment

She is smart – creative – loving – helpful – and her mother’s daughter – “SARAH”!

In my mind, she has music all around her –

“BORN TO BE WILD” and “UP – UP and away – MY BEAUTIFUL BALLOON”!

Sarah standing in front of her mother – light blue shirt – when she was young – free spirit!

Now standing beside her mother Debby who is 5’6″ – she has become a stunning beauty!

Our little Sarah has grown up – and this is her Junior Prom!

Today – she is – “UP – UP and AWAY IN MY BEAUTIFUL BALLOON” in my mind!

The “BORN TO BE WILD” IS HIDDEN IN HER FREE SPIRIT AND SMILE!

The days ahead for her will be the turning of many heads in her direction –

but she will remain that “BEAUTIFUL BALLON” free to fly away!

Sarah – beautiful inside as well as outside –

Her caring – helpful ways – her laughter – her smile and her funny humor!

She has turned into the Butterfly of life –

and in another year – “UP – UP AND AWAY – MY BEAUTIFUL BALLON” will float in the sky!

Stay true to your free spirit –

Let your “BORN TO BE WILD” raise your “BEAUTIFUL BALLON” to new heights-

ON YOUR TERMS!

With proud parents – Mike and Debby –

OUR GRANDDAUGHTER – SARAH –

I post every day on Facebook – GOOD THOUGHTS as my way to promote Positive feelings and sharing!

Helping others as much as we can – staying neutral – staying true to our beliefs – having good relationships.

Having a sense of humor – smiling – laughing – feeling positive and focusing on the life we lead – THE SALT LIFE!

Trying to leave a footprint on Positive changes for the good of humankind – is not easy but can be done.

A smile when many years ago our granddaughter took her first horseback ride – today she rides and takes care of horses!

Papa’s World – Feeling good – smiling – laughing!

I saw this and laughed – both Sherry and myself – are going to the Senior Center –

Tuesday and Thursday – doing what is called GERIFIT!

It costs nothing – and anywhere from 40 to 50 Seniors are there –

It is 45 minutes of continuous exercise structured for Seniors.

You use a chair – weights – and a stretch band tied to the back of the chair.

All the muscle groups are used and no pressure – you do what you can.

At 75 years old – along with walking – this will hopefully keep us limber and fit.

This picture keeps me happy whenever I walk by it –

it so reminds me of something –

In my mind it is a “HALLMARK CARD” –

Why is it special and makes me smile?

Because it was drawn by Cassidy when she was maybe six or seven!

Its simple – but shows me “HER” as a little girl – and I smile when I see it!

Church is a big thing in our lives-

ever since we were married.

In the years we have been married –

we have been members of three different churches-

One in WNY – one in NVA and the latest and we think the last – in OIB. N.C.

All have special memories in our hearts.

In our time in N.C. and S.C. –

which is only 8 miles from us –

with North Myrtle Beach another 8 miles-

We have attended the Saint Patrick’s Day parade four times!

The first time was in the Pandemic and not official –

It brings happy thoughts to us and memories of family and friends who have gone with us!

A happy thought full of smiles for us!

Hanging on the wall in the front bedroom –

Is a drawing of our home in Brambleton, Va.

This is special for us and framed because our granddaughter –

“ELLA” drew it for us!

Again – when I see this –

it brings smiles and a memory of our home in NVA!

Today – I hope I have started your day with a smile –

a good thought and a happy day!

My way of doing that to you.

Putting your thoughts into the right frame of mind – sip your coffee – relax and move forward.

Life can be about seeing humor – and not negative vibes. Smiles are free!

Acts of kindness – volunteer for seniors – memory care – helping others!

Be happy – I try to think positively each day – I look for positive news articles or historical events.

Bring humor into your day – laugh and smile and greet people whom you don’t know with a smile.

After all “SMILES ARE FREE”!

I take out all the negativity I can from my life – news – papers – TV – it can calm my life and I just do not need all the noise from others!

Sunrises – sounds of the beach – birds – waves and the start of a new day!

Golfing for us is just getting out in nature – fresh air and green grass and if possible – sights along the ICW!

How many times driving down the highway have you seen just one shoe? LOL

“ET”? No!

Our TOWER GARDEN is covered during freezing weather – below 32 degrees –

rare but does happen here in N.C.

We have been growing since August after we moved in July 2021!

And the cover works!

I have always championed equal rights for women – and will to the day I die.

Life is full of humor if you look for it! LOL!

I look for positive stories to read and positive – good thoughts to share – life is too short to do otherwise.

Our brand new Community Center has opened – Pickleball courts – pool and clubhouse.

My thoughts have always been this – “DO THE RIGHT THING”!

Trying to keep the weight off – requires a sense of humor – at least I can laugh at it!

I try to live my life with humor – not laughing outright – but with funny thoughts that lead to smiles!

Keeping it all in perspective – I like good entertainment – shows that make me feel good!

I am not good with scary shows or violent shows although I have seen some good ones!

AAHHHH! The wisdom of our senior years – living life to the plus one-day at a time!

I tend to unfollow people who post negative or insensitive posts – I have enough negative ‘STUFF” –

I choose to read and see the positive side of life!

Life is full of choices – doors to open and walk through! LIVE TO THE FULLEST!

I hope this starts your day off in a good mood – enjoy whatever the day brings –

listen to the sounds – see nature and live life to the fullest one day at a time!

Kindness – every day – we show kindness – hoping that it is passed on!

In my house, I change the cushions – instead of where I sit! LOL!

The world is so full of negative news – and lacking in smiles – hug a person – shake a hand –

give kindness and caring for free!

Notice the sights and sounds in nature – the peaceful journey on a walk – look for sunrise and sunsets!

MY BLOG: livinglifedoingitmyway.blog – living life one day at a time!

My two mottos for the way I live – not knowing from day to day – since my heart attack – what tomorrow will bring.

Every day on social media – I post humor – to make myself smile and hopefully – others as well!

Humor – smiling – good thoughts for each and every day – trying to make a small difference.

Giving what we can to those less fortunate. Helping – caring makes our life much more rewarding.

Papa’s World – I try to make it a place – a haven of sorts of positive thoughts and good times in our life.

Thank you for taking the time to read and see the world we live in the autumn of our lives.
