Papas World – come laugh with me!

I find a lot of funny sayings – pictures – quotes

that make me smile –

a lot I do not post because they are political

even though they go both ways

being a straight down the middle independant

I find them funny – and I really do not care

what party they are in!

In today’s World
THE CELL PHONE!

Today – everyone has their phone out –

I very seldom have mine out – only when I am alone

By myself with no one around!

In fact – I have been known to forget it

and leave it home!

I study people as they are doing whatever they are doing

with their phone!

YES
THIS WOULD BE ME!

I have never done crossfit in my life!

I have no idea what it consists of.

I really am not a exercise guy

But I do walk

when it is not freezing outside!

THIS
ALSO IS ME!

As I have written before

I got o bed early

and I get up early

so if you call or text me on the phone

that I really do not use

I will not see it until 5 am.the next morning!

JUST WHO I AM!

THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE

When you get older – you will find it!

Although – all through my life

I loved vegetables

Boiled dinners

cukes – tomato’s – beans –

Everything!

Could be me also!

Going shopping – I push the cart –

I lag behind –

I sneak things in unseen! LOL

Yep -that is me!

I hope today I brought just a little smile!

A feel better day!

A day made better by laughing!

SMILE!

Have A GREAT DAY!
LOL

Papas World -in the world of business – Fruits & Veggies!

Are you searching for a opportunity?
A way to work from home part time?

We were -13 plus years ago –

what was at first a way to pay for our purchase-

To doing The Business part time –

To retiring and have a supplemental income

To be able to travel – (read my blogs over 200)

And once retired to remain in our home

near our grand kids!

It is a very simple product – fruits – vegetables – berries –

put into capsules for you to take two of each everyday with water!

And research proven that it immediately goes into the bloodstream

repairs cellular damage – and boosts the immune system

along with other proven research facts!

Over 30 published researches from major institutions

around the WORLD!

And if you have a hard time swallowing
THERE ARE GUMMIES!
GREAT FOR CHILDREN!
And – as a bonus – children – ages 4 to 19
are FREE!
When a adult purchases the product
one child per adult purchase
gets it free for up to FOUR YEARS
as long as the adult continues!
And COLLEGE STUDENTS

The GUMMIES come in FRUITS – VEGETABLES and BERRIES!

We use them for snacks rather than candy !

Need a PROTEIN drink
a drink for breakfast – lunch or work out!
A way to cut fats – calories from large meals!
Then our two powered drinks
DUTCH CHOCOLATE
FRENCH VANILLA
I just add crushed ICE
a cup of Soy or Almond Milk
Water and whatever FRUIT
I want -in a blender
and it fills me up!
THE DRINKS ARE PROTEIN
GLUTEN-FREE NON-GMO
LOW GLYCEMIC
FIBER & VEGAN

We also have bars – to use as a snack or in place of a meal with the drink!

The bars are Protein – Fiber – Non-Soy –

Vegetarian – Gluten free –

Non Dairy & Low Glycemic!

The Published research says it all
NSA approved for pro athletes

So – how is the business and what to expect?

It all depends on yourself!

You can do it part time as we did for years

or – full time – it is your choice

but know either way – you have a support group!

You can follow this
or do this!
Or SHARE a concept of health and nutrition
much as you would a movie – a book
or a favorite vacation spot!

We started the business part time

to pay for our purchase each month

and then to get all our grand kids started

each of the six have taken Juice Plus either all their lives

or the majority of their lives!

We eased in and then saw the benefits

then we simply shared- first with our family

then our friends with the help of our sponsors!

The steps to success
and success is at every step!
Those whom you sponsor
because of their own effort
can pass you on the steps!
It is completely up to you
or them how to progress
You still get a commission
on their efforts either way!

The Juice Plus Business plan is fair-

It allows you to go at your own pace

and you never lose what you gained!

Once you have achieved that step

You do not go back down

and those that you sponsor as a partner

can progress above your step!

The cost of HEALTH & NUTRITION
less than a coffee at Starbucks!

The cost is less than that treat that you might buy

It really is affordable

Papa’s World – Just another day in my life.

COMING TO A END

Here it is almost 1/3 the way through November

The leaves are coming down –

it is chilly at night

and once again it is time to pull the flowers for storage.

I remember my youth –

Fall was hunting season –

I only ever shot one thing in my entire life.

A Rabbit – and it did not die right away –

instead dragged itself along the ground –

I stepped on its hind legs

and it screamed !

That was it for me –

no more hunting –

Sometimes you just
find a corner
and observe
what is happening
around you !

Fall also is the time you get ready to rake and rake

Bags of leaves to be picked up on Tuesday trash days.

That is the day they pick up yard waste.

I usually end up with at least twenty bags of leaves !

Fall’s in my youth –

riding my bike until early dark

sometimes neighbor hood KICK THE CAN !

The neighbor hood on North Main Street

was full of kids.

Games were every day or just hanging out.

The saw mill up the street with a huge pile of saw dust.

The apple trees and chucking apples at the train as it passed.

Sleeping out on the porch – going inside when it became too cold.

Walking down town to the Texaco to see who was hanging out !

Memories of the mind –

Sometimes you wonder

WHEN WILL I FORGET ?

PAPA’S WORLD

WHERE FRIENDS MEET FAMILY

Papa’s World – For eighteen years we have changed lives.

What I remember most from my life before we started this healthy living – was my obsession with fast food.

I loved Mcdonald’s double quarter pounders and fries – and diet Coke!

This would become a whole new way of living for me – one that I started to give up what I loved to eat –

Milk – Sodas(POP) – fast food – fried foods –

The thing I regret the most is Juice Plus was around THIRTEEN YEARS before I even heard of it –

so I lost those years and that time before – 35 years – of eating unhealthy – led to my heart attack!

I am convinced had I not changed – I would not have survived my heart attack – FOUR BLOCKAGES!

Putting the above into my body at that stage of my life – I feel gave me the best chance of survival and I am forever grateful for that.

Today we are in our SENIOR YEARS – enjoying life and health as a lifestyle.

Along this journey of eighteen years – not only have we changed our own lives – but that of our family – friends – strangers – and lots and lots of children!

The day we said YES – to the question –

“IF YOU COULD PUT 30 DIFFERENT FRUITS AND VEGETABLES AND BERRIES INTO YOUR BODY – EVERY DAY WITH A CAPSULE – WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED”?

That question and that day – I strongly feel saved my life all those years ago – for I had not put those

fruits- vegetables, and berries into my body for all those years.

And now going on for eighteen years we are asking you and people like you that very question!

Papa’s World – ” I LEFT MY HEART IN SAN FRANCISCO”

GOOD MORNING

On our list – SAN FRANCISCO – and we made it !

The Golden Gate Bridge

We left in traffic in the early morning –

and arrived still in traffic crossing the GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE in FOG !

We had a destination – a parking garage –

But it was surrounded by one way streets !

So – drove around and around –

passing our way in a few times

because we could not get to it.

Parking garage

The plus to all that was the garage was right across the street from Pier 39 !

Alcatraz

We also had a view of Alcatraz in the bay.

We choose not to go there as Buck and Cindy had been there

and I wanted to spend more time in the city !

Pier 39

We walked and walked Pier 39 –

NOTE – we left Sacramento in 100 plus temps

had to have light jackets as it only got to 64 and foggy.

great place to people watch and also full of unique places.

If you go here – take it all in and search out a good place to eat !

San Fran sky line

It also was close to where we bought tickets

for a 2 1/2 hour bus tour ( you can hop on and off )

we selected to stay on and then walk when we got back.

At end of Pier 39

I also recommend you walk to the end of Pier 39

where you can see hundreds of huge Harbor Seals

all barking and moving around on floating docks!

Papa’s World – Being “ALERT”! LUMINATE!!!!!

In the morning routine, I have maintained for years – first I shower – along with the teeth – shaving, etc.

Then after getting dressed – it is now around 6am.

I go to the kitchen and make my cup of “COFFEE”!

Then it is onto my computer – reading emails – deleting and finally –

I read the Washington Post online – skipping what I did not want to read and reading other stories

and the sports section.

All the while as I sip my coffee – this is the only cup I drink for the day!

Recently – The Juice Plus Company released “LUMINATE”!

All are made from natural flavors from BERRY and MANGO

and flavored with other NATURAL FLAVORS!

The above ingredients of “LUMINATE” are low in calories!

Just a glass of water – around 8 oz.

Pour in the packet and stir until dissolved –

Then drink – I set a timer for 30 minutes to see if I could detect an “EFFECT”!

I sipped it until it was gone!

These are all plant-based ingredients-

And I did feel for me a more clear-headed – alert effect!

And it lasted for hours!

The above is what has been noted in this drink –

and I can say yes to the above.

NO GMO Ingredients – and it is GLUTTEN free!

Here is the glass of water and one packet poured in and mixed up to sip – and it tastes good!

If you would like to have this in your daily consumption –

Contact us at WWW.SFitzsimmons.JuicePlus.Com

Sherry and I have been distributors for the JUICE PLUS COMPANY for 18-plus years.

You can also contact me directly by email – fitztdf@aol.com

We can direct you to our website and help you maintain a healthy lifestyle as we have all these years!

And walk you through and answer questions –

PAPA’S WORLD – “BEING ALERT” – LUMINATE!!!!!!!!!!

Papa’s World – A great day to be alive!

Papa – this picture was taken shortly after my Heart Attack

but before my FOUR BY-PASSES OPEN HEART SURGERY!

I really should not be here – I had a 100% blockage and three other partials!

I made it because in my mind I had changed my eating habits and “GONE HEALTHY”

Eight years before. The damage of slow arteries becoming clogged –

was 40 years in the making!

And in that journey – my wife convinced me to take a supplement –

which through research in major medical facilities worldwide –

showed that arteries could be opened by taking a combination of BERRIES!

I am convinced had I not changed – I would have died that day!

Today – ” IT IS A GREAT DAY TO BE ALIVE” ten plus years later!

Not only being gratefully for our lives in serving humanity – but literally for my HEART!

We continue our journey – walking every day – twice a week –

Tuesdays and Thursdays – at the Brunswick Senior Center –

Participating in “GERIFIT” for Seniors!

A 45-minute exercise class that goes on every second working on all your muscles

in your body and balance – strength and being flexible!

We eat as healthy as we can –

still, take our daily supplement of “FRUITS – VEGETABLES – BERRIES and OMEGAS”

ALL PLANT BASED!

It is truly “A GREAT DAY TO BE ALIVE”!

A little humor along with a great feeling!

Just being here knowing that the % of not being here was very large –

I beat death – I had the help of the one I love –

I shall always remember that.

Forty-two years ago she said yes – and then ten-plus years ago – with her help –

I beat death.

I am forever grateful.

Yes – today “IT IS A GREAT DAY TO BE ALIVE”!

PAPA’S WORLD – my site: livinglifedoingitmyway.blog

IT’S A GREAT DAY TO BE ALIVE!

Papa’s World – Some looking back and humor!

Our life together is a reflection of how we feel toward other people!

Loving – caring – respect –

Giving – donating – sharing what we can.

Family – relationships – friends –

Neighbors – laughing – humor –

This is us!

Healthy – being a senior and age as well as we can.

Sharing that knowledge –

Looking out for others and standing up for beliefs!

HUMOR – wish I liked wine –

I tend to drink a light beer every now and then!

For the most part –

one cup of coffee in the morning –

And water the rest of the day!

AAAAHHHHAAAAA!

A SENIOR MOMENT IN TIME! LOL

Sherry and her two sisters-

Debbie and Bonnie!

LOL – SO TRUE –

AGING HEALTHY AND WITH GRACE IS OUR GOAL!

Papa’s World – found a Natural way to health !

GOOD MORNING

We took a little trip to Winchester Va.

To meet up with our granddaughter & her mother

to celebrate the granddaughter’s birthday !

Linda and Sherry

But first we had to stop at Linda’s business store

As we had something to give to her.

The business is Natural Health & Fitness Solutions – LLC.

This was a first for both of us

and I was very impressed as I looked around.

The hours are BY APPOINTMENT ONLY !

The whole concept is NATURAL !

I actually looked at almost everything –

And I noticed some photo’s on the wall

Of before and after of some of her clients !

The pictures and numbers were remarkable –

INCHES AND POUNDS LOST –

One lady had lost 20 some inches and 112 lbs. !

I saw the focus being on WHOLE FOOD !

EXERCISE – and COACHING !

We – have tried to maintain this thought ourselves

and it is not easy

but then – HEALTH IS NOT EASY !

Papa’sWorld – Yosemite – natural wonders – El Capitan

Cindy & Buck

Once again I drive – up and up – hairpin turns –

We are going to Yosemite –

Cindy – Sherry and Buck

The drop offs are a thousand feet –

There are no guard rails – the berm drops a foot

and then it is straight down !

Cindy and Sherry
later we would drive on the road at the bottom

There is no other way to describe it – 15 MPH is too fast !

I would constantly pull over at the spots to pull over to let traffic pass !

They would take the turns in the other lane –

Too many in hurry – unsafe drivers out there !

Sherry – with a wonder in back of her

In the distance you can see El Capitan –

Site of the movie FREE SOLO !

President Roosevelt

This pristine area has been preserved for one reason –

President Roosevelt !

Captured – with the view – on the back spare tire –

Papa’s World – hiking with the grand kids – Veeren Memorial Park – S.C.

Cassidy Bode Papa Tammy

We had driven past this park dozens of times as we went to golf and also after we bought our lot!

Always saying – we need to stop and check it out –

might be a good place to bring the grand kids as they all

like to hike and explore!

Papa Cassidy Taylor and Bode

So – we did and then when they came down – we went for a hike –

out through the marsh – into the trees – a sand trail – pathway –

I had a map as it splits off several times!

I guess in the warmer months you will see gators in the marsh!

The little ones are always curious – exploring – seeing and asking questions!

But – they also stay close – ever watchful –

and tend to hang with MorMor!

Sherry – ( MorMor) Swede for Mother’s Mother – loves to lead and show them – explain what everything is!
They also listen to her!

For the past 18-plus years – we have been on a quest to AGE HEALTHY!

The fountain of youth – well – as far as I know- doesn’t exist – so we do all we can to maintain our health – stay active and enjoy life to the fullest!

We eat the above every day – through solid foods and supplements!

We both are near our mid-seventies – exploring life and now living what is called here in the South –

THE SALT LIFE near the beaches and the ICW!

We practice the above every day – we do not smoke – have a few drinks here or there and live life to the plus.

Our daughter Debby is a QMND for Juice Plus Company – for almost 18 years we have been doing the Juice Plus program – eating and drinking the supplements.

Debby’s family – all Juice Plus users – living life to the plus one day at a time.

NEW MEMORIES OF THE PAST!

Papa’s World – healing – what you eat – is who you are.

It is really hard to maintain that habit –

There are so many distractions – so many smells –

Just out walking – the smells of early morning –

we live in a very diverse neighborhood –

and you can smell the cooking for meals as you walk.

And it is mouth watering !

With me – I have given up fast food – milk – ice cream – soda –

I try not to eat red meat –

I stick mainly to chicken and fish.

Small amounts and not everyday.

I like Tuna in a can – solid white packed in water.

I like raw carrots – radish – cuke’s and tomato’s.

I rarely eat processed meat or cheese.

My wife Sherry is a certified health coach –

she watches over me –

we try as often as we can to walk three miles

BUT NOW THE COLD IS HERE.

So- we walk the Mall or go to our health fitness center.

I could live in flip flops the rest of my life –

I am not a snow – ice or cold weather person.

Getting older – watching steps and stairs –

not walking on ice –

And smelling the food where ever you go.

IT CERTAINLY IS NOT EASY !

But – we have to do it !

We are aging – but our goal is to age healthy –

WE ARE WHAT WE EAT !

Papa’s World – High and Low Tides – exceptional.

October is the month for exceptional HIGH and LOW tides!

I did not know that!

No – I did not go to this extreme to see where the tide came up to.

But – from our Lanai one half mile away –

we could hear the BOOMING of the Surf!

So – Sherry looked it up and sure enough

we were in this week of very high and low tides!

So – we went for our daily walk in the morning

Just after high tide had been there

and I captured this photo!

HIGH TIDE CAME UP TO THE BOTTOM STEP

OF THE LIFEGUARD CHAIR! WOW!

And then in the afternoon – I snapped this picture

looking back toward the mainland

and down the beach – that same chair would of been

where the light colored sand is!

This was not even LOW TIDE YET!

I guess this happens once a year in October!

ME AND MY SHADOW!

This beach is very wide normally

during normal tides

and very flat and hard surface

you can wade way out if you want

not me – I saw a sand shark caught

within 20 yards of the beach!

Papa’s World – RAINBOW – Over Brambleton

GOOD MORNING

A couple days ago – Sherry was working for Tammy –

And I was watching Bode –

It had been raining and I glanced out the back window

to the East –

and saw a sight I never get used to –

A RAINBOW !

RAIN BOW OVER
BRAMBLETON VA.

Everything was fresh and clean from the Rain –

Even though we have a irrigation system

The lawn and trees and flowers

always react much better to natural rain fall.

The RAINBOW is a extra offshoot of refreshing rain.

RAIN BOW OVER
BRAMBLETON VA.
I called Bode over to look and he was like
That is so cool Papa !

Thank you for reading my daily blog

Just little everyday things in my life.

WHERE FRIENDS MEET FAMILY

THANK YOU !

Papa’s World – Our LIFE and TIMES together!

One of our many TEAM TRAVEL SOCCER trips with Maddy –

here Ella was not old enough yet –

but she went on to play also

and became a three-year starter in college and team captain,

with one more year to go!

Maddy finished her college career as third and second-team all-conference –

and team captain in her Senior year –

In four years her team went twice to the NCAA Division III National tournament!

MEMORIES OF OUR LIFE AND TIMES FROM THE PAST!

For nineteen-plus years –

Sherry and I have been distributors

and partners in the Juice Plus Business.

This has earned us a residual income over those years –

in addition to Pensions – 401K and Social Security –

It has made our life

and we can live our dreams.

It is a great business that can be done from home

and either part-time or full-time!

THE COST – $50.00 a year and you get your own website!

There is no collecting money – shipping or distributing.

I wish someone had shown this to us 13 years prior –

it has been around 32 years –

and is sold nationwide

and in over twenty countries worldwide.

Our little business has spread all up and down the East Coast

and we have made so many new friends-

and helped so many families –

with health and nutrition!

OUR LIFE AND TIMES TOGETHER – email: fitztdf@aol.com

Sherry walking the beach with granddaughters –

love this – and family is very important to us!

BEACH LIFE HAS NOW BECOME OUR LIVING DREAM!

OUR LIFE AND TIMES TOGETHER!

While living close to Washington, D.C.

we would often either drive in or take the Metro to the ballpark!

We became NATIONALS fans when they moved there from Montreal-

and played in the old RFKstadium –

rocking the concourse and watching the games!

OUR LIFE AND TIMES TOGETHER!

Our forever friends –

Dottie and Jim and Buck and Cindy-

We are all now retired

and still enjoy great times together –

laughing and playing golf.

We now all live in the state of N.C.!

OUR LIFE AND TIMES TOGETHER!

It has been a wonderful fulfilling life –

FRIENDS – FAMILY and GOOD TIMES!

OUR LIFE AND TIMES TOGETHER!

Papa’s World – Early memories in pictures!

Flashback to 2005 – our journey together began at NBC for your HEALTH in the convention center-

in Washington, D.C.

This is another vendor booth –

Here we found a supplement that I have not lost one day in taking for 19 years!

We have done dozens and dozens of booths at fairs for health as far South as Florida!

Being as healthy as we can and aging healthy has been a priority for both of us as –

We are both 75 years old!

Every day our bodies receive directly into the bloodstream – NUTRIENTS –

From 30 FRUITS – VEGETABLES – AND BERRIES in addition to OMEGAS made from

ALGAE and not FISH OIL and eliminates MERCURY from our bodies!

All of the above are produced on farms managed by producers for THE JUICE PLUS CO.

and NO PESTICIDES – tested FIVE TIMES for purity.

Here is Sherry who is an SSC for the company – at one of the dozens of vendor shows we have done.

AGING HEALTHY AND LOOKING AS YOUNG AS WE CAN AFTER 75 YEARS!

At 75 years old and going strong – Papa and Sherry share the dream of COASTAL LIVING in OIB!

FOR MOE INFO go to http://www.SFitzsimmons.JuicePlus.Com her website – no obligation-

just check it out and email for additional information and cost!

Before we moved to Cameron Woods Community – we lived in Loudoun County –

Just West of Washington, D.C., and near the Dulles Airport!

Because I did not run – I like walking –

Sherry did 5K’s!

She has always liked to run and here is her award for running the 5K –

Living life to the plus and living healthy through her supplement business – JUICE PLUS!

Given time – effort and comfort to those less fortunate – a MOTTO we live by!

The early years of Marcus and Tammy –

Though time has gone by – they still adore each other-

Now – three children – the twins Taylor and Cassidy and our family-only grandson – Bode –

They – the grandkids call Sherry – MORMOR – MOTHERSMOTHER! SWEDISH!

EARLY MEMORIES IN PICTURES!

Papa’s World – Surviving a WIDOW MAKER HEART ATTACK – 56 hours after open-heart surgery!

Sherry and Papa – this Valentine’s day.

All my life up to 16 years ago – I was a junk food addict!

I thought I was fit – playing sports until my late 40’s!

I ate all the time at McDonald’s – then something changed my life.

Sherry went to NBC for your health in Washington D.C.

I also went to the food court!

That is where she found a supplement that changed both our lives.

At first, I denied I needed it – then three months later I started to take it-

FRUITS AND VEGGIES AND BERRIES – JUICED – DRIED TO POWDER AND PUT IN CAPSULES!

NUTRIENTS OF 30 DIFFERENT KINDS EACH DAY!

It slowly over the years changed my life – I felt better – BUT – unknown to me – I had damaged my heart

from all those years ( 40 plus ) eating junk food and drinking cokes – mountain dew and gallons of milk.

I thought that was good for me.

EIGHT YEARS AFTER I STARTED ON THE SUPPLEMENT – I had a WIDOWMAKER HEART ATTACK!

FOUR ARTERIES INVOLVED – I almost did not make it!

I was rushed from work to the hospital where I had one artery 100 % blocked –

They put a stent in and the PAIN went away – but I was told I had three more that needed to be done!

It was too dangerous – I would have to have an open heart and four by-passes!

ONE WEEK BEFORE CHRISTMAS!

All this time I never missed a day of my supplements – even when I went into the hospital.

Over 40 published types of research from major institutions from all over the world – convinced me that I was doing something right and not to give it up!

So – on a Monday morning – at 7:30 AM – they started – by 3:00 pm. they closed me up!

At 5:30 pm. they called my wife and daughters.

By 6:30 pm. I was standing!

I never went to the step down – I went straight to my room –

And I was told by the nurses and doctors I was the healthiest heart patient they had ever seen!

They wanted me to do an interview for some kind of research but I declined.

Here I am – 56 hours later standing in front of the Christmas tree – I was home!

I had a 100% – 90% – 60% and 40% blockages. I walked the halls in less than 20 hours –

Everyone told me they had no one like that – I went home and the other people who had surgery

that day were still in the step-down units.

Sherry and Papa – I had a nuke stress test late Jan. I passed with an excellent grade.

I just had all my blood tests – everything was very good – I STILL TAKE MY SUPPLEMENT

of 30 fruits – veggies and berries and now OMEGAS!

SHERRY and PAPA

Sixteen years ago my life changed and in my mind and heart –

I believe – I am still here – and I STILL TAKE THOSE SUPPLEMENTS EVERY DAY!

Papa’s World – Better Health and weight loss!

My journey to better health and trying to maintain and lose weight is years into a better life journey!

All my life I have battled the weight gained – even staying at the same weight is very hard for me!

On top of all that – I am diabetic – and have to watch the sugars – starches –

I am on Metformin – and currently at 6.7% ALC and Glucose at 115!

My GP wants me “DOWN” to 6.5 or below and Glucose under 100!

On the Plus side – my Cholesterol is 108 – my Triglycerides – are 81 and HDL – is 33.

My VDL Cholesterol is 10 – my LDL Cholesterol is 59 and my LDL Cholesterol is 59!

My weight as of this blog is up and down – 189.6 lbs. to 192.4 lbs. every day!

NOTE: I graduated from H.S. in 1967 at 195 lbs.

I see my GP every four months for blood tests – I consume hardly any sugars –

I do not like hard candy and if I have cake – I do not eat the frosting!

I have for almost nineteen years taken a Food Supplement called JUICE PLUS.

This is where every day I get absorbed into my bloodstream –

nutrients from 30 different FRUITS – VEGETABLES and BERRIES!

All are grown on their own controlled farms with no pesticides.

I also take every day OMEGAS – four different kinds from ALGAE and not fish –

grown on The JUICE PLUS farms – no toxics or fish oil or mercury.

My journey is ongoing – each day – my day starts with coffee – one cup –

yes, I know caffeine may not be beneficial – so I limit it – I drink water the rest of the day.

NO SODA – NO DAIRY(milk) – very little butter or oils,

And I have cut drinking down to be – well – if we are by ourselves weeks at a time – no alcohol.

Going out by ourselves – maybe a draft beer – but most of the time water or unsweetened tea.

Even getting together with neighbors or friends – I have tended not to drink.

I also drink a SHAKE every day if I can – made out of COMPLETE – a product of JUICE PLUS.

A powder – French Vanilla or Dutch Chocolate –

I add crushed ice – water and a cup of Almond milk.

Put it in a blender and mix until the ice is gone –

This I substitute for a breakfast or lunch meal.

It gives me plant-based protein and a host of nutrients.

Eating as healthy as I can has given me control over my weight gain and loss each day.

In the four years I have done this on my own –

I have gone from 205 lbs. to the current 189.6 lbs. thru the 192.4 lbs. daily.

A gradual decline over the years.

This formula has worked for me in keeping it off and of course, there are times I treat myself!

Going out to eat – I almost always look for salads and add on of chicken or salmon.

But – there are times I splurge and cheat a little!

With friends cheating with ICE CREAM which I love – but this is rare –

My journey is my own – with help from my wife Sherry who also has her own journey of better health.

She is a tall woman – and watches what she eats every day and also for almost nineteen years-

has taken the health Supplements of Juice Plus and Omegas.

She also does a shake every day and a drink she makes to clean out the impurities – cleansing as she calls it – from both of our bodies.

We are both 75 years old – living life to the plus one day at a time.

My hope is this can bring hope to those who struggle every day being a part of the Baby Boomers –

and SENIOR population!

If you need a contact – mine: fitztdf@aol.com, and Sherry – http://www.sherrylynn49@aol.com

Our journey is not simple – but it is real –

I strive to age as healthy as I can into old age.

Papa’s World – “RETIREMENT” going really FAST!

The home we built to retire in – Brambleton, Va. – just behind the Dulles Airport!

It has been over twelve years for Sherry ( she retired early ) and ten years for me!

We had thought that we would retire in this community in Loudoun County –

But a few things happened.

Our youngest daughter and her family who lived a mile from us – MOVED – not far –

some 16 miles away – but you have to understand – we picked up the granddaughters

every day after school – and there were days we had Bode when he did not have pre-school.

We would walk to their home and they would ride bikes with their parents to our house.

Overnight stays were common – trips to the community pools –

We were involved daily and that changed.

You might say – Well we could drive there – but when you are a senior – TRAFFIC bothers you!

And NVA has traffic – and they are just crazy!

We did not like having to drive that distance after being able to walk to their home.

I know – that is selfish of us – and we loved their new home and they loved being in a single-family home with neighbor kids and country living!

Once there – it was so nice – and to be truthful – our neighborhood was what I call a –

“GARAGE DOOR NEIGHBORHOOD”

It goes up when they leave for work – closes and opens again

when they return and closes again.
that’s it!

Outside of a couple neighbors – we had no close friends – it was always in transition.

A beautiful place – a growing community – four High Schools and only one when we moved there.

Our home was beautiful – we walked the fifteen miles of trails daily.

I would sit daily in retirement on the front porch and see dozens of people walking or biking by –

But I knew none of them!

I spent my time grooming the yard – we planted flowers that came back each year –

I hand-dug and planted three Crepe Myrtles and three green-type trees that went straight up

by the fence – I had a wild strawberry patch that the twins would sit down and eat one by one.

Cassidy would tell me how soft the grass was on her bare feet and how cool it felt in the shade.

Living here in retirement was our goal when we built it – we watched as the neighborhood

grew and grew – expanding – schools being built –

a complete town was built with a bank – markets – stores – theater – library and multiple restaurants.

A fifteen-acre park with basketball courts – tennis courts – playgrounds at different sites –

a large pond and huge boulders with waterfalls.

Three community pools were opened.

A sports complex – ball fields soccer fields and cricket fields were submitted and the over 200-acre park with all this was completed after we left!

Brambleton was and is now a destination point for people who work in D.C.

And the Metro came after we moved!

The Washington Commander’s headquarters was five miles away.

We could have driven three miles – hopped on the Metro and went into D.C. or got off at the Dulles International Airport to fly out!

After a short one-half-hour drive we were in the famous “HORSE COUNTRY” of Middleburg –

Where Jackie Kennedy rode horses and Christopher Reeves fell and became Paralyzed.

Then the second reason happened in our retirement – the bottom fell out of the stock market –

The 401K dropped like a lead balloon – it burst!

We lost and we lost big time – 33% disappeared overnight!

We still had our pensions – small as they are – our lifeline Social Security –

which after 79 1/2 years between us we paid into instead of wages and benefits – AND EARNED!

And we had Sherry’s home-based business going on 19 years –

with a monthly income – The Juice Plus Company has been very good for us!

We could survive but it was very expensive – where we lived –

the highest per income in the country!

BUT – the housing market took off and we gained what we lost in the 401K back in the house.

TIME TO SELL AND MOVE!

We would leave our families – but only be a seven-hour drive away –

and go to warmer weather!

The area we had always liked was the area of Wilmington, N.C.

and South of that!

I started to google and found a condo in Ocean Keyes , North Myrtle Beach – S.C.

That would give us time to research and find a place to live!

This was the two reasons we decided to sell and move South – leaving family and friends.

Our journey into retirement had its dreams and pitfalls – but we found our end of the rainbow-

I hope this gives inspiration to those who go into retirement and have to make changes.

THE YEARS OF RETIREMENT HAVE GONE BY REALLY FAST!

PAPA’S WORLD – RETIREMENT – GOING REALLY FAST!

CAMERON WOODS COMMUNITY – OCEAN ISLE BEACH – NORTH CAROLINA!

Papa’s World – Loving life!

My life today could have been much different!

In 2013 – November –

After I arrived at work, my left shoulder was sore!

I thought it was because on the Friday before – I had manhandled five Tile Table Saws –

not only were they cumbersome – but large boxes –

I had to break the skid down because it was too big to put into the storage racks.

I transferred to NVA and told management that I no longer wanted to supervise people –

I just wanted to work – do 110% and go home!

I wanted to retire and at that time I was six months away from retirement.

At 11:00 am. I finally got caught up – and my shoulder had turned into my left arm killing me!

I sat down at my desk and a fellow employee came out into the warehouse –

took one look at me

and asked if he should call an ambulance –

I said”YES”!

He came back and gave me water and two baby aspirins!

They came and put me on a stretcher –

I was having a “HEART ATTACK” –

My arm hurt so much that I would be relieved if you cut it off!

I had for forty years eaten fast food – soda and dairy before I changed eight years previously.

They rushed me to the hospital operating room in Fairfax –

I was told I was having a “WIDOW MAKERS HEART ATTACK” –

thank goodness I had changed my eating habits to drop fast food

and dary eight years before –

but the damage to the arteries had been done.

They put a stent in and the pain stopped!

But – they told me I had to have three more!

They also told me on the day I was supposed to have it done –

they could not do it!

It would be too dangerous and I had to come back and have “OPEN HEART SURGERY”!

Including the stent!

I was distressed –

this was a major operation – would I survive?

I had been taking a supplement –

FRUITS – VEGGIES and BERRIES – 30 of them daily for over eight years!

And I had never missed a day.

And I did not miss even through the surgery – I firmly believe this is what kept me alive.

Now – I had the four by-passes – I was up and walking 10 hours later – they sent me home –

less than forty-eight hours after closing me up –

they wanted me to be a part of a study they were doing –

they told me “YOU ARE THE HEALTHIEST HEART PATIENT WE HAVE EVER HAD”!

I declined – I did not want to travel back and forth.

To this day – going on nineteen years –

I have NEVER missed a day of those supplements!

It has now been TEN and HALF YEARS since those by-passes!

I get tested – blood tests every FOUR MONTHS!

Here are my results for May.

Because of the WIDOWMAKER HEART ATTACK – I TAKE MEDICATIONS

and am told that will be for the rest of my life!

CHOLESTROL – Range – 100 – 199 – my results: 108!

TRIGLYCERIDES – Range – 0 – 149 – my results: 81!

HD CHOLESTROL- Range- 39 or above – my results – 33! ( I need more strenuous exercise – I am 75!)

VDL CHOLESTROL – Range – 5 – 40 – my results – 10!

LDL CHOLESTROL – Range – 0 – 99 – my results – 59!

I am a low diabetic – type two.

I take medication – I eat hardly any sweets – no soda – no dairy –

AIC – They want me below 6.5 % I am at 6.7%

I will try the diet to control this –

so far I have lost over 10 lbs in the last six months.

I am bouncing between 189 and 193 –

I graduated in 1967 at 195!

GLUCOSE – Range – 70 to 99 – my score: 115 –

I am working on this and it came down from the last blood test.

Overall – I am happy with my blood tests –

I keep trying –

I am dedicated to my Juice Plus –

I will always take them each day.

PAPA’S WORLD – LOVING LIFE!

Papa’s World – Old times not forgotten!

Bode – less than a year old – being held by Taylor – and Cassidy by her side – soon to be 14 on their next birthday –

This was taken at the Brambleton Town Center where we lived for 14 1/2 years.

We moved here when there was but one high school –

when we moved on they were just opening the fourth high school.

OLD TIMES NOT FORGOTTEN!

Maddy attended the Univerity of Lynchburg for four years – and played soccer all four years.

Ella ( who attends Randolf College and plays soccer) will be a senior next fall –

We as a family traveled as a family – renting a AIRBNB –

So we could participate in the games played when they played each other!

Here is a picture of TAMMY – DEBBY and SHERRY outside a grill during one of those trips!

OLD TIMES NOT FORGOTTEN!

My oldest son Troy – at the place where his best friend passed away during an ATV accident –

Putting a memorial marker on a tree –

This was in the Alleghany forest in NWPA –

Cherished memories for him –

OLD TIMES NOT FORGOTTEN!

Sherry and Debby with their “TEAM GENERATIONS”

at a lunch during a break from the Juice Plus Conference.

While many from the team could not attend –

This group learned so much about health and nutrition.

OLD TIMES NOT FORGOTTEN!

My youngest son Shawn –

receiving one of his many awards over the years in shooting pool competion

A ranked pool player in both Canada and the USA –

Out of over 1000 players recently from all across the country –

He finished in the top 30s!

OLD TIMES NOT FORGOTTEN!

Papa – a serious look but the back story is I had just had oral surgery!

Two front teeth implants!

Now – to say I was not stressed leading up to this –

Well – “I WAS”! LOL

Glad it is over –

I shall always be OLD TIMES NOT FORGOTTEN!

When lifetime friends gather together for a picture – it becomes –

OLD TIMES NOT FORGOTTEN!

Papa’s World – Family ties in pictures!

Ella – soon to be 21 – Sarah – soon to be 18 and Maddy – soon to be 24!

When they were small – we would take them into D.C. – either the Metro or drive-in.

They loved it – one time we took the Metro to Arlington – walked the cemetery –

and then walked across the 14th. street bridge and walked D.C.!

Sherry has had her “TEAM GENERATIONS” for Juice Plus for 19 years!

She and her two daughters started to bring health and nutrition to families.

Children between ages of 4 and 19 are free if an adult has purchased the product –

and continue to be free as long as that adult continues!

Here is part of her team – all from up and down the East Coast!

On one of our visits to friends in WNY on Lake Chautauqua – riding in a boat – laughing and having so much fun – we have known each other and were neighbors for years and years!

Taylor – now 13 going on 14 – Bode – now 9 soon to be 10 and Cassidy – now 13 soon to be 14!

In our town center in Brambleton, Va.

They lived just a mile from us – then they moved to the other side of Leesburg –

We sold our home and moved to OIB, N.C.

MEMORIES that always are in the back of my mind!

We are of like mind – believing in equality – helping as much as we can –

volunteering at the senior assisted living-

Delivering food to the food pantry.

Trying to be as helpful as we can and understanding those who are less fortunate!

We have always been this way and together, hoping to make a difference!

SHERRY in the SUNRISE!

PAPA’S WORLD – FAMILY TIES IN PICTURES!

Papas World – the angels of my life – looking down.

I am the only one left now –

First was my brother Mike who left us way too early –

I do not have many pictures of him – but I have his image –

for as long as I live in my mind.

Curly headed little red head – always smiling –

giggling – I can still hear him.

And what a golfer he became –

the first one to hit that ball 300 yards or more.

On the old number one at Smethport Pa.

The one that runs along the highway – I was with him when he did it.

He drove past the green and into the yard behind the green!

That had to be 350 yards and a little grade uphill!

He was mostly a par golfer and had he been able to putt –

Well Gene Fazio once told me –

“IF I HAD HIS LONG GAME AND MY SHORT GAME – I”D TURN PRO”!

Gene was one of the finest golfers in our area and there were a lot of them.

My sister Donna – me – my brother in law Bill – my brother Roger and our mother Mary

One by one they passed away – first Donna –

my sister who was 15 years older than me-

Who rasied me until she she was married to Bill and moved out.

She was the most kind and considerate person I have ever known.

She always could see both sides and I never heard her say a cross word.

Bill – was second to go – a Korean War vet – a truck driver and Police chief

A Mayor and a wise brother in law – always funny –

he had nicknames for almost all the kids

but he simply called me Tommy or Tom.

We were more friends than brother in laws-

Then it was my Mom – who outlived all her friends –

two children and all her brothers and sisters – cousins –

She was almost 98 years old when she passed.

She was small – always a smile – and very kind.

She was a true baker – she could bake without following a recipe.

Cakes – Pies Homemade bread and rolls –

she did it all and everyone in town knew her.

She would sit on her front porch and they would honk

and holler “HELLO MARY”!

People would pull over and stop and come over and talk with her.

She was Mary – the kind lady – but she also was tough as nails.

She ruled the roost so to speak.

I always listened to her – I did not want to hurt her.

Roger

The last to pass in this picture was my brother Roger –

who as I grew up was my idol.

He was ten years older – but in the last ten years of his life

we became very close.

He always lived far away and I lived for any information from him

I would ask my Mom – “DID YOU HEAR FROM ROGER”?

He too played golf – although not as well as Mike –

he was always a little over Par – but always under 40.

He was very smart – having been named “WHO’S WHO”

while in college.

He was a ladies man – he knew how to be a gentlemen –

he was “IT” when it came to the ladies.

Now I am the last – my dad passed from cancer when I was just 19.

I have my two sons –

My sons Troy and Shawn

I have a niece Kelli and another Jen –

I have two great nieces and they have children.

And I have two grandsons from Shawn.

Ryan and Dylan

And I have my soulmate – Sherry – my wife.

Our extended family here whom I love dearly.

“THE ANGELS OF MY LIFE – LOOKING DOWN ON ME”!

Papa’s World – Sherry and I landscape the treeline!

LOL – but this little project was like working out – heavy lifting – raking – spreading – and digging!

It took us two years of just looking at it and then deciding it was time –

let the work begin!

Anything behind the mulch and toward the trees and bushes – is protected wetlands –

so we can not do anything beyond what you see here –

there is a drainage ditch and until it gets hot – will have water in it.

Beyond this treeline are several ponds – a catchment system to contain runoff and rain.

We have added a birdbath – a white bobbing bird – and an Oleander bush in the foreground.

This is the downward end – water flows this way and out to the ponds.

We have planted perennials here to come back each year.

The upper end has our birdfeeders which attract many birds throughout the day!

Note the yellow flowers – they were eaten down to the mulch by a deer!

Here you can see the bush I planted last spring – and has grown really big.

Forest “FACES” look back at us in our backyard!

23 Bags of mulch I carried from the front – and opened and dumped for Sherry to spread –

we had to first dig out all the weeds – rake and level the ground –

It was labor – a workout for two seniors almost 75 years old!

PAPA’S WORLD – SHERRY AND I – LANDSCAPE THE TREELINE!

Papa’s World – Through my eyes – Living life – Senior living!

Spending the day watching Ella play college soccer – Senior living at our best!

Next Fall will be her Senior year – how the time has gone by –

She will graduate with two majors –

Her plan is to be an elementary Phys Ed. teacher-

Which is right up her alley as she is so good with children!

We try to live these words – caring – helping when we can – Senior living – one day at a time!

Time has passed since this retirement party for Sherry –

but we still maintain a healthy lifestyle –

walking – now doing physical exercises at the SENIOR CENTER – 45-minute sessions of non-stop exercise for seniors!

Living life to the plus one day at a time.

Being helpful to family – friends and neighbors – caring –

Visiting – reaching out –

volunteering at the Memory Care facility near our home –

Organizing the Library –

Living our lives and still helping others.

Staying in contact with our dear friends who now live 32 miles from us.

From back in WNY to now N.C. – playing golf maybe every two weeks.

This is what friendship is like in our senior years!

Part of living and part now of being a senior – but still maintaining a healthy lifestyle!

Papa – senior class picture – 1967 – a long time ago – now living another senior life!

Debby – Papa and Sherry – going to a JP event – living life to the plus!

PAPA’S WORLD – THROUGH MY EYES – LIVING LIFE – SENIOR LIVING!

Papa’s World – Ever changing life – Ocean Keyes – North Myrtle Beach – friendships

Papa – walking from the beach to main street of North Myrtle Beach!

Along the way – we have friends – who after social distancing – come to visit!

And – we walk the gated community – through he gate –

and onto the beach!

The gentle surf of the beach – water and sand!

Our friendships go back years and years.

We all lived by one another – then we all moved away

but that friendship has endured time and distance.

Always from afar – but close when we make plans to get together.

Cindy – Sherry and Dottie
Jim and Buck – Jim and I played softball together in the mid to late ’70’s Buck and Cindy were our neighbors and they also knew Jim and Dottie!

We plan golf – card games and word games!

We drink a little beer – sing a few songs – do a shot – and laugh!

We would set up a get together every 4 to 6 months –

We lived near DC – Jim and Dottie Va. Beach and Cindy and Buck – Wilmington N.C.

Now we have moved further South

about 50 miles from Buck and Cindy.

It is easy for us to get together and golf every weekend.

Jim and Dottie are now the Northerners!

We all have taken up a new game – Pickle Ball!

This last time – we got together at our condo – played two days of golf –

and Pickleball has now become another game we shall play!

We all practice good health – Sherry – who is a certified Health Coach – leads the way!

She has her own website and for 15 years has been the one who encourages all of us!

http://www.sf.juiceplus.com HEALTH AND NUTRITION AT IT’S BEST!

We all come from WNY and SWPA area and are big Buffalo Bills fans!

Distance may separate us – but friendship is but a zoom call away.

Papa’s World – Years of Memories!

Near us on Sunset Beach – Bird Island – sits the “KINDRED SPIRIT” mailbox –

a 2 1/2 mile walk from the pier South toward the sanctuary of dunes and marshland.

A HIPPIE and his girlfriend carried a mailbox and pole down the beach some 40 or 50 years ago.

Here – up on a dune above the tide line – they dug a hole and inserted the pole and the mailbox

and named THE KINDRED SPIRIT MAILBOX with a ledger and pen or pencil inside –

people would hike the deserted beach and leave their thoughts written down on the ledger.

Now all these years later and many new mailboxes and posts later –

two benches have been added – a large piece of driftwood sits on top of the sand dune with a metal plaque honoring both of these people.

And to this day – me included – I have sat there and put a note in the current notebook journal.

I was told that those journals have been collected and donated to a museum –

All these years – THE KINDRED SPIRIT MAILBOX represents the hopes and dreams

all started by a HIPPIE and GIRLFRIEND!

A mother ( Sherry ) and her two daughters (Debby and Tammy) are so alike – generations –

Sherry – from Mount Jewett, Pa. – A Swedish community settled in the 1800’s.

Both daughters followed us to NVA from NYS – and remained in NVA with their families.

Both helped their mother form TEAM GENERATIONS – which is her Juice Plus Team –

For over 18 years teaching health and nutrition through healthy eating.

Now passing that down through the six grandchildren –

thus forming “TEAM GENERATIONS” for future families to come.

Our final home – this being the third one we have built and now in Ocean Isle Beach –

CAMERON WOODS COMMUNITY –

Situated on the mainland side of the ICW –

We are four miles to OIB and six miles to Sunset Beach.

Eight miles to the border of N.C. and S.C.

A thirty minute drive to North Myrtle Beach and a fifthteen minute drive to Shallotte and Calabash.

We also are in the middle of over 30 golfcourse within 1/2 hour drive.

Our dream has come true!

Before Sarah – Maddy and Ella – now 23 and 20 years old.

Ella is in her Junior year of college –

Playing soccer all three years and captain this past year.

Maddy played all four years and captain her senior year.

Ella will have two degrees when finished –

Maddy graduated with a Enviomental Science degree and is now employed in one of the largest environment firms in the country as a Gelogist-Scientist!

PAPA’S WORLD – OUR LIFESTYLE IN OUR SENIOR YEARS!!!!!!

Papa’s World – More reflections on our life.

Playing golf in our senior years was one of the reasons we moved South – warmer weather and out of the ice and snow and really cold weather.

Being close to so many golf courses – and the Local rates – has made it possible for us to play here rather than the expensive rates where we came from!

When we moved we took with us the home-based business we have been doing since 1996 – and today that income – monthly – has given us the freedom to expand our living –

We are both retired – with SS – Pensions and 401K – but in today’s World – that is not enough.

This has allowed us to live our dream – and enjoy retirement.

If this interests you – here is how to learn more.

PAPA’S WORLD – HEALTH CONFERENCE – THE JUICE PLUS COMPANY – CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA

Papa’s World – Charlotte, N.C. – the city!

We drove some three and one-half hours West to Charlotte, N.C. for the Juice Plus Conference.

This was my first conference since before the pandemic.

Mainly because I did not like flying – I had COVID twice – and I felt being in a plane was not such a good idea!

But – we were 191 miles – a distance that made it driveable in a car!

We stayed in an AIRBNB in the city – a little over one-half mile from the convention center!

So we walked and walked – everywhere!

Averaging 10 to 15,000 steps a day! Good exercise – and easy to find our way around.

Charlotte is a beautiful city – we walked in pairs or groups for safety – but never once did we feel uncomfortable.

The convention center welcomes us – signs – and lots of people.

The view from the balcony of our AIRBNB – all apartments or rentals!

Just across the street from the convention center – and a very nice park to walk through!

The park is across from the convention center through which we walked for breaks.

I do want to go back and hope that they will choose to hold another conference here!

The Charlotte Convention Center – entrance – thanks for reading and if ever there – WALK –

It’s go for you!

PAPA’S WORLD – my site: livinglifedoingitmyway.blog CHARLOTTE, NORT CAROLINA – THE CITY!

Papa’s World – Team Generations in CHARLOTTE!

TEAM GENERATIONS – inspiring healthy eating from grandparents – mothers – daughters and grandkids!

A mother and two daughters formed this team in 2005 – 2006!

In NVA after attending a beneficial living presentation.

Sherry first saw the product at an NBC for Your Health in Washington, D.C.

Asked if she could get the nutrients from 30 different Fruits – Vegetables and Berries in a powdered form encapsulated – with published research on the benefits of such a powder –

SHE REPLIED, ” SIGN ME UP – I DO NOT EAT ENOUGH VEGETABLES”!

Almost 18 years later – the TEAM GENERATIONS has expanded into multiple generations –

sons – daughters and now grandchildren –

three generations of healthy eating and healthy habits!

Today – the Children’s research has been expanded to a child- –

with a sponsor – starting at age 4 –

until their 26th. birthday –

will get fruits and vegetables free for all those years as long

as the sponsor continues with their own order!

TEAM GENERATIONS now has two QNMD on the team with Debby and Mandy!

Commitment to better health – raising awareness of healthy eating –

48 published types of research proving the benefits of JUICE PLUS –

LIVING LIFE TO THE PLUS – ONE DAY AT A TIME!

Sari and Levi – going to be a great time – teams bonding together.

Our tour guide – “TOM” started us off – and keeps the mood light – and shouting out to the people in the streets – bars and grills – a blast – bonding experience.

Papa with a selfie – Doctor Bruce – Linda and Sherry – we were seated in the middle of the FUNNY BUS!

The healthy “LADIES” of Juice Plus – smiles – say it all!

The Juice Plus hats were given to top performers as Partners in Juice Plus!

Papa’s World – Arriving in Charlotte, N.C.

The wall in our rented AIRBNB in downtown Charlotte –

we have eight of us all part of “TEAM GENERATIONS” for the JUICE PLUS COMPANY.

Dinner out after our first full day – once we parked the car – we walked everywhere we needed to be.

Right in the heart of the city.

Yes – we stayed right in the middle of the skyline you see here.

Our view at night – everything lit up – we were a 13-minute walk to the convention center

where the Juice Plus Conference was held.

The first full day was a breakout session and I elected not to go –

The ladies of TEAM GENERATION are on their way to the Convention Center.

My view while I worked on my blog! I did leave once and walked to the Convention Center –

I went into what I thought was the building but a security guard directed me to a side door-

She told me to go into the Hilton and they would direct me to the Center.

I walked into the middle of a big sports production –

lights – cameras and action!

A crescent-shaped both were set up with five people – just like you see on NFL TV!

There were people with cameras – big ones with microphones –

And very tall basketball players in all types of different uniforms!

I had walked right into the middle of MEDIA DAY for men’s BASKETBALL of the ACC!

ATLANTIC COAST CONFERENCE!

I asked a reporter how to get to the Convention Center and he directed me out the back door –

turn right – follow the metro tracks – There was a sidewalk – that led to the Center.

I came in the back door and ran into one of our Team members –

She told me where to go for my packet!

My first walk alone in the big city – I got lost – and ended up in the middle of a TV set – but found my way

to the place where the JUICE PLUS CONFERENCE was being held! LOL

Debby and Mandy – TEAM GENERATIONS QNMD’s –

PAPA’S WORLD – ARRIVING IN CHARLOTTE, N.C.

Papas World – It is early – I look around – almost done!

It is early Thursday morning – I awoke at 3 am.!

Too much on my mind!

I look around – the car is packed

The next to final trip to Tammy and Marcus house

where we will establish a home base.

Then one more trip to the storage unit –

and finally the last trip – lock up and leave

We are changing – evolving – dreaming

a new adventure awaits – it is fun selecting places

seeing rentals – looking at real estate for sale!

We will go to where our eyes take us

but stay where our heart finds home!

We will seek warmth – sunshine & golf!

It is finally time to do that!

Living in NVA is $$$$ to golf!

Owning a home in NVA – well taxes are high

as is the HOA – and while we love our dream home

At our age – maintaining it is costly.

New roof – trim painted outside – new HVAC

A new fence was on the horizon –

Our home I must say is nearly perfect

The lawn I was told looks like Augusta National!

New Bamboo flooring – new fridge –

But we loved it and the way of life.

I guess it was the pandemic and the stock market that gave us thought.

Now was the time – the value was up and the market strong.

We have choices – places to live –

friends and family to visit

and God willing – grand daughters soccer to watch.

Once again we will laugh with the friends we have held close

for almost 38 years.

She will continue her home based internet business

Health – family – nutrition where ever we go.

Yes – I look around – almost finished – today I watch Bode

Sherry will help Tammy who is getting ready to reopen her store

529Kidsconsignment – closed because of the pandemic.

Taylor and Cassidy have tennis lessons

Yes – I was up early – yes I look around – time for coffee –

Almost done – almost 14 years here –

our dream home – now another dream begins

Thank you for reading Papa’s World

WHERE FRIENDS MEET THE FAMILY!

DREAM ON – I am awake now – time for coffee!

Papa’s World – Papa and Sherry – beach & golf and shopping! Retired with part-time income!

This is me! LOL, but we do enjoy golfing – by ourselves or with friends!

Sherry and Papa – married for over 40 years – together for 42 years! Living now what is called THE SALT LIFE!

We are retired – although for the past sixteen years – Sherry has owned and operated a network marking business!

Allowing us to retire in N.C. in Cameron Woods Community, Ocean Isle Beach!

We are four miles to one beach and six miles to another beach.

Here we are with a neighbor on Sunset Beach – relaxing in the sun on a weekday – living what locals call THE SALT LIFE!

We found this little piece of paradise – where the temps are moderate during FALL – WINTER and SPRING!

It can and is HOT in the summer – but we find the ocean – with a breeze – more than comfortable.

5 to 10 minutes and we are sitting on the sand!

The beach was a major factor in choosing this area – but also – love to golf!

We are within thirty minutes of over 30 golf courses!

Four of them are right across the street!

We can choose whatever we want to play!

Now – we are not all that good – but being out in the open on the golf course is what we love.

We have purchased what is called the first tee – which gives us major breaks in what we pay each 18 holes!

32 different courses – just call up and make an afternoon tee time!

We like playing afternoons as most people like to play before noon!

Major shopping – outlets and big box stores – are only a thirty-minute drive for us down Myrtle Beach.

Sherry and Papa at Tanger Outlets – Myrtle Beach – S.C. Thanks for reading Papa’s World – livinglifedoingitmyway.blog

Being retired with an income additional to SS and Pension and 401K –

Has allowed us to select where to live and this is THE SALT LIFE!

Sherry had the fish TACO’S – which she said were very good – I recommend anyone who is in the area – to make reservations –

and Go to OYSTER ROCK to dine -it is GREAT!

Cukecumber Martini for Sherry – said it was very good – service here is out of this world!

My go to – draft beer – RED OAK – a local brewery – if they have it – I order it!!!!!!!

Oyster Rock in my opinion – is the best place to dine – love it here and the food is great and so is the service – overlooking water –

Fishing boats dock here and fresh catch everyday!

My Dinner – now this PORK CHOP was huge – so big I could not eat the french fries! A good 5 inches thick!

I will go back and have this again – biggest PORK CHOP I have ever had!

Papa’s World – Arlington Cemetery – National Cathedral- friends

GOOD MORNING

When friends from out of state visit – you TOUR D.C. !

Tom – Sherry – Jo and Paul
Clydes
Georgetown

First on their list – Arlington ad the Tomb of the unknown –

and the family grave site of JFK & Jackie !

We shall never forget

We decided to drive on this first day –

parking at Arlington National Cemetery!

Tomb of the unknowns
JFK and Jackie
grave sites

We did the tour bus –

where you get off and on !

The eternal flame
” ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU “

The grounds were quiet –

the birds were chirping

the solitude

Paul – Jo – Sherry

This was a must on their expectations !

JFK & Jackie

We explored all the family graves

then it was back on to the bus

and up the hill

stopping every so often

for explanations on different markers !

At the tomb

As we pulled in – the quiet was striking !

People walking –

going about in their silent ways !

The graves and markers
The tomb
Silently watching
The changing of the guard

It is a place to be quiet –

standing still

gazing upon a ritual

that has been going on since 1948

24 / 7

365 days of the year

THE TOMB OF THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER

We owe this all in gratitude

for our freedom

we have today

where friends meet family

Papa’s World – family – most are gone – but memories linger on – missing them.

My step father John – my mother Mary and my brother in law Bill.

John was a decorated WWII hero – with the purple heart and numerous other medals.

He captured a castle and a Nazi officer out of uniform – there is a story in a military journal

that is in the WWII museum in Eldred Pa.that chronicles that event.

He took from that officer a automatic machine gun pistol – vintage WWI – that also resides in the museum

and is worth upwards in the thousands of dollars. They keep it locked away as it is so valuable.

He was wounded several times and went back into action.

Bill was a vet of the forgotten war – Korea – he seldom talked about it but while I was growing up –

he gave to me his sleeping bag that he used in the cold winters there.

I admire his stamina as all it was is a wool blanket inside a canvas liner!

I would get very cold while sleeping outside on the ground in it!

He was more to me than a brother in law – he was my friend and like a brother to me.

One time I was out with him on patrol in the cop car – he was the town cop –

We drove down across the tracks and out past the old pipe building –

he saw a woodchuck and said to me –

“Do I get him”?
“Sure I said”!

He pulled out his gun and from the front seat shot that old woodchuck –

I almost went deaf from that gun going off!

I said ” JESUS CHRIST BILL” and then we both just burst out laughing!

Lesson – never fire a gun from inside a car – you can barely hear for like 10 minutes!

John and Mary ( my mother) holding pies that she made from scratch!

Mom was known all over the town and county and into NYS for her baking.

She would bake rolls – bread – pies and cakes. Sweet rolls and sticky buns.

There was not anything she could not knead and bake and all from memory!

She did not need a receipt – she just did it after almost 85 years of her life baking!

She baked as a child learning from her mother who passed at 85 years old.

Mom was next to the youngest of 11 kids and was almost 98 years old when she passed.

She supplied pies and cakes and rolls for a diner in town.

She was so kind and loving – warm and gentle – but she also was a strong women – way before her time – she believed in equal rights and taught me that – she would come up with these sayings that made me laugh – ” You are as useless as a two petered billy goat”

Or she would say ” You are as useless as teats on a boar hog”! She had me in stitches –

she also played the accordion my father the spoons and sang and my uncle jack the wash board.

They would do this at family picnics and if the beer was free – at social events.

When she was young – she traveled with my grandma in the logging camps of Pa.

Making breakfast – lunch and dinner as a way to make money in the depression.

My father passed away in 1969 after a long battle with cancer – leaving mom a widow and my younger brother just entering H.S. After about ten years she met John – and they remarried – both of them.

They were together until he passed away at age 81.

She called him “JOHNNY BOY” and he was so good to her – just what she needed after ten years losing my dad.

He could fix anything and construction was his forte.

His cars and trucks immaculate even though they were ten years old – showroom condition.

He fixed up and remodled the house which she had kept going all those years .

That same house today is still in the family after almost 78 years –

my great niece lives there today.

Today – a emotional journey into the past –

THE VIETNAM MEMORIAL –

GOOD MORNING

Leaving the Lincoln Memorial and walking across the street –

past the little building selling items

in tribute to the WAR no one wanted !

Jo and Paul

The walk was quiet – people gathering – people taking pictures –

Sherry Jo Paul

We all had classmates on THE WALL –

a very divisive time in our young lives –

our middle to late teens –

being told that we would be OVER THERE in High School!

People gathered at THE WALL

My coach saying to us –

” YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE GOING ” !!!

Living that for five years –

But for the grace of God – go I !

Jo Paul Sherry
capturing the name of a class mate

In my Senior year – I had a car accident –

I spent 51 days in the hospital –

not knowing if I would ever walk again

“BUT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD – GO I ”

We all had some one to find – to honor – say a prayer –

REFLECTIONS OF YOURSELF

When you gaze – when you search –

and then you see yourselves

gazing back – looking into your soul

And you know – for what reason –

They gave it up – and you shall never forget.

Papa’s World – Walking among the Ghosts – Korea

Long known as THE FORGOTTEN WAR –

The Korean conflict war memorial

is to me – “WALKING AMONG THE GHOSTS ” of war.

GOOD MORNING


My brother in law Bill was in this war –

and not once did he ever talk to me about it !

The closest we came was him giving me his sleeping bag –

as a teenager who used it to sleep out on –

North Western chilly nights

in a little town of Eldred Pa.

Jo Paul Sherry
walking from the Wall
to the Korean War Memorial
Sherry Paul Jo
Seeing the GHOSTS for the first time

The sight is becoming – the soldiers – silently walking –

through the shrubs – gray – white –

the effect is startling.

Paul Jo

One can almost feel the tension in the air –

the expected clash about to happen –

I often wonder what it would be like to be there –

not in Korea – but here –

on a dark silent night –

with mist swirling in from the Potomac !

Sherry – walking among the Ghosts
on the Korean War Memorial

That is the sense this brings to me –

in a War mostly forgotten

yet the vast numbers of loss and maimed

remain with us to this day.

PAPA’S WORLD – HAVE A GREAT DAY!

Papa’s World – Through Winter into Spring – Tower Garden.

We now are over ten years of growing our own produce – and down here in the Carolinas – border of N.C. and S.C. –

we have grown year-round – Summer – Fall – WINTER and into the beginning of Spring!

In WINTER when it does get cold – we cover it up during the night and day if we have to – the sun can get through

this mesh covering also protects it from below freezing – 19 degrees one night – and we put our flowers under it!

Here are the last Springs flowers which I moved to the back and covered with the mesh!

The Tower Garden ( http://www.ssherrylynn49.com) and the flowers on the back patio – we had continuous produce all year!

This spot protects the plants and also is in the sun for most of the early morning and early afternoon!

All I do is make sure water is in the base – by watching the WHITE FLOAT rod – when it goes down to the marker on the float –

I add water – and every so often – I add a cup of nutrients ( 2 different types)

NO WEEDING and NO PESTICIDES ( http://www.sf.juiceplus.com )

We eat salads almost every night and soon in this planting – cukes and tomatoes and celery along with lettuce and herbs.

For over SIXTEEN YEARS – we have added the above natural FRUITS – VEGETABLES – BERRIES – OMEGAS

to our daily diets in CAPSULE – GUMMIE – BARS – and DRINK forms. ( 30 different FRUITS – VEGGIES and BERRIES)

The OMEGAS are not made from FISH OIL – but from ALGAE FARMS ( which fish eat Algae to produce OMEGAS)

to avoid the MERCURY found in fish.

This blog is to bring information on healthy choices from us – Papa and Sherry nearing our middle 70s

Papa’s World – When they were young and small – MEMORIES!

Today – I look back – back to the little ones – who now are the older ones and the next three whom I now call the little ones!

All six of the grandchildren several years ago before we moved to the Carolinas – this at our home in NVA!

Today – the oldest graduates from college – the second oldest is a Sophomore in college – the third oldest is a Sophomore in H.S.

The twins are in sixth grade and Bode – is in second grade.

All have been down to visit us – and the younger ones have spent a week’s vacation with us here at our new home!

The twins – Cassidy on the left and Taylor on the right – with Papa – they were so small when born – both just three pounds plus!

Today – Taylor – then Sarah ( who is 5’10”) and Cassidy – who is actually now growing faster than Taylor!

Sarah is a Sophomore in H.S.

MORMOR – Sherry – and Papa – at the beach shortly after Sherry retired early to pursue her Juice Plus business full time! She is a certified health coach and guides me in healthy eating.

Today the three oldest are with their parents – Maddy – then Ella and Sarah. They have all grown up!

Our memories of times gone by – forever young in our minds! Maddy – Sarah and Ella!

TAYLOR – love her smile!

Cassidy – the little determined one – loves her feisty attitude!

Bode – the only grandson out of five granddaughters – my little buddy – PAPA and BODE!

Thank you for reading PAPA’S WORLD – livinglifedoingitmyway.blog

Papa’s World – Our life today and yesterday.

Good day everyone – our lives have changed – from city living to the SALT LIFE in the CAROLINA’S!

Before – we called home in NVA 30 miles from Washington, D.C. and near the Dulles airport –

5 miles to the Washington Commanders headquarters!

A very busy area – traffic – thousands of homes being built –

They were just completing the fourth H.S. in our community since we moved there 16 years ago.

And then we moved South – to the borders of N.C. and S.C.!

We thought we had our retirement home when we built our last house in NVA!

SURPRISE – housing values went up – the stock market and 401 K went down – SO WE SOLD!

The adventure continues – hoping this is THE DREAM HOME!

And we took our internet business for SIXTEEN YEARS – with us!

This has been a blessing in residual income – better than a second job!

http://www.sherrylynn49.com if you want to ask questions!

Today – all of our family has come here for visits – we hope that continues through the years –

living our dream and sharing with family THE SALT LIFE we have found near the beaches.

SHERRY ON SUNSET BEACH – PAPA’S WORLD – livinglifedoingitmyway.blog OUR LIFE TODAY AND YESTERDAY!

Papa’s Worldf – Pleasant thoughts – life with us!

Our life has evolved over the years – from humble beginnings – struggling – to now living our dream near the beach!

We want pleasant – good news – not negative – we choose to be positive and caring and helpful. SMILE!

We are careful with the environment – and we grow our own produce knowing there are no pesticides and is edible without worry.

We have been doing this for over ten years – if you have questions or seek info – contact: http://www.ssherrylynn49.@aol.com

Try to have humor in your lives – smile often and hug! Our way of life.

This is just a little bit about who we are and how we live- Thanks for reading!
