Reunion 2007 Pictures

Jim & Shannon, Paul & Hillary, and Kevin & Caryn...We Missed you!

In Loving Memory of Rick Jackson

Every time I think of Rick, his humor is what comes to mind. I can remember him and Dad firing jokes left and right. There was always laughter which is what this world needs. These are some pics that Mom had.
Anyone want to put a caption to this one...

When you speak of him speak not with tears

for thoughts of him should not be sad.

Let memories of the times you shared give you comfort

for his life was rich because of you.

And though for now you had to part,

though to part he did not choose;

he'll be with you along life's path,

Forever In Your Heart.

Dixie, Ricky, Keri and Angie you are in my thoughts and prayers.

And the Winner is.....

Who won for the biggest bass....
Yeah, that is right boys and girls, Loser won with that monster she fought out of the lake at the Scott National Wildlife Area. And thanks to that monster the team of Loser and Red won for most weight in bass. Want to hear the funny part, our lucky basket where we keep all that we catch had a hole in it...who knows how many got away. How is that for a fishing story? What we owe it all to is Loser's skill and my fishing buddy in Las Vegas sending me some good luck.

Fast Forward to Today

Overwhelmed...

Big change...

Mom is now living with me. The doctors in Vandalia were not helping. Thought it better for her to get her back to the doctors down here. Better that I don't have to run my ass off...although I could stand to loose it. Only time will tell if we both drive each other insane.

Morgan Reunion changed from Vandalia to Coulterville because Mom is back in Coulterville.

What else...

Finally got the low life scum out of T's house, now just need to find a decent renter. Rule number one never rent to so-called friends, because they will screw you. The shape they left the house was something that I never want to witness again. As I told Loser when I found a T-Ball in the house, I think I could beat the hell out of both of them bitches with that little bat and I would enjoy every home run. Thanks Loser so much for taking care of cleaning it out and disinfecting. I know one day those bitches will get paid back.

My little Ford mower that I got from Uncle Melvin, finally went kaput. Got a new and bigger one. I love taking care of my yard and now I have a new toy to help me. Mowing relaxes me. It is my escape. I put peoples head on each blade of grass so imagine the joy I feel chopping all them heads off.

Really I am not homicidal, just here lately I have been in a real zone for revenge for all the dick heads and bitches that have been causing grief to me or anyone I love and care about.

By the way...

Peace out...Red Rover over and out...until next time...same bat time same bat channel!

After a hell week...

Mom is still in the hospital, but it sounds like the doctor is letting her out on Friday. She sounded better today, after a rough day yesterday and a horrible last week. Pneumonia sucks!

In driving back and forth to Van to see Mom last week and having 50 million things running through my psycho head, I listened to my husband, Tim McGraw's new CD and it is awesome. One song in particular I wish I could actually do what the song says...Let It Go.

I’ve been caught sideways out here on the crossroads
Trying to buy back the pieces I lost of my soul
It’s hard when the devil won’t get off your back
It’s like carrying around the past in a hundred pound sack

Today I’m gonna keep on walking
I’m gonna hold my head up high
I’m gonna leave it all behind
Today I’m gonna stand out in the rain
Let it wash it all away
Yeah wash it all away
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah

Skeletons and Ghosts are hiding in the shadows
Threatening me with all the things that they know
Choices and mistakes, they all know my name
But I’m through holding in and holding onto all that pain

Today I’m gonna keep on walking
I’m gonna hold my head up high
I’m gonna leave it all behind
Today I’m gonna stand out in the rain
Let it wash it all away
Yeah wash it all away
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah

I know I know I know
I’ve been forgiven
I know I know I know
I’m gonna start living

Today I’m gonna keep on walking
I’m gonna hold my head up high
I’m gonna leave it all behind
Today I’m gonna stand out in the rain
Let it wash it all away
Yeah wash it all away
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah
I’m gonna let it go Oh yeah

Who knows maybe one of these days, I will be able to let it all go...Red Rover over and out!

In Loving Memory of Larry Crowder

Larry D. Crowder

When I come to the end of the day,

And the sun has set for me.

I want no rites in a gloom-filled room.

Why cry for a soul set free?

Miss me a little, but not too long,

And not with you head bowed low.

Remember the love we once shared

Miss me, but let me go.

For this is a journey we all must take,

And each must go alone.

It's all part of the maker's plan,

A step on the road to home.

When you are lonely and sick at heart

Go to the friends we know.

And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds

Miss me, but let me go.

Hey Dad, look what I found in your back yard

I know my Dad would have been smiling from ear to ear, if he would have walked out in his back yard and found what I found today. It made my heart smile, cause I remembered all the times I went mushroom hunting with my Dad. This time I didn't have to worry about snakes. I did probably run over some with the mower before I seen them. But from the pictures you can see even losing a few I still ended up with a nice mess. What is really funny is that I don't eat them, I always gave them to Mom and Dad. Since Mom is an hour plus away, I had to give them to someone who I knew would enjoy them, Bill & Judy. They couldn't believe that I found them in Mom and Dad's back yard.

Dad, I miss you like crazy, especially when something happens like today. I want to tell you how much I appreciated ALL the things we did, like mushroom hunting. You taught me so much.

DAD

You are the best.

I Love You!!!!
