But, this service that you do for all of us is such a treat. I found out things I really didn't know about Mary. She is such a sweet person and now, I'm glad to know a little more about her. Mary, you have really led a full life my girl. It was so interesting to hear about your life and jobs and the important people you have met. I don't even think I knew you had a granddaughter and such a beauty she is.Your garden shows all the love you put into it and I'm totally in love, myself, with Waldo and Lili.Thank you so much for sharing your life with us and thanks, as always, to Kris..Happy Tuesday..Judy.Judy at GoldCountryCottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10282585980012016892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3145927977814106970.post-83694260575382839142014-06-10T11:40:39.079-05:002014-06-10T11:40:39.079-05:00thanks Phyl for the lovely comments.

But, it's good for us to now have her blogging. I once worked in the manufacturing industry alongside engineers. It can be such a tough place to work in when the economy sinks. I've experienced that same situation before of the company cutting back. I don't miss those days.
