Blahwg!
Starring:
ME
I've spent six years here on the farm.
Four years ago I took an early retirement, rather than transfer,
when our plant was on the road to closure.
Co-Starring:
Mr J a.k.a Ray
Meet my darlin' hubby, Mr J. I wrote a post explaining his nickname.
He says you can call him anything... just don't call him late for supper!
Mr J was my stalker at work. He's a foot taller than me at six-feet-five.
I tell everyone that I married him so I'd never have to sit behind him at the movies.
We married in 2001. He retired the same day I did.
For all you psychology majors out there... I'm a middle child and Mr J's the baby. 'nuff said?
also co-starring:
MIL & FIL
Mr J's parents came to live with us a month after we moved in.
We built this house with them in mind, and made it (at least their half) handicap accessible.
MIL has rheumatoid arthritis and uses a wheelchair.
FIL is a WWII veteran that served in the Navy.
They are both from a long line of coal-miners in eastern Kentucky.
They have been married since 1946.
Guest Starring:
Marcus & Jen
My only child, Jennifer, is married to a wonderful daddy named Marcus.
They have four girls.
Dani a.k.a. G #1
Alexis a.k.a. G #2 a.k.a. Lexi a.k.a. Ali
Grace a.k.a. G #3 a.k.a. Gracie Bug a.k.a. noodle-head
No! You're a noodle-head. (giggle, giggle)
Melody Lillian my namesake!
a.k.a. G #4
Tim & Jessica
Tim is Mr J's son. He married his high school sweetheart.
He's even taller than Mr J, so it's not every day we get a picture with their heads together. LOL Jessica used to blog, but doesn't have as much time now that she's a new mommy!
Brady Matthew a.k.a. G #5
Christy
Christy is Mr J's little girl, his first born.
My grandgirls get excited when she comes to town!
