~I'll always remember Di~

Hello!! Guys, Well here we are the last day of the month...Boy this month has gone by fast for me...I couldn't let this day past without remembering The People's Princess Diane...I still have a hard time believing Diane has been dead now 14 years today...

To say I admired this woman and what she tried to do is an understatement...I watched this sweet young thing at age 20 on July 29,1981 Marry her Prince Charming...I had to stay up all night to watch this ceremony...We had VCR's at that time but had just came out on the market and were like $1000.00 to have a home one...well just a wee bit out of my budget at that time..You see I just knew that young Princess was going to make a differ in the world...And she did not disappoint me...

I Love all things Diane....here is just a few things from my collection over the years that I wanted to share with you today...

I have Princess Diane Dolls....

Some of my plates...

These ones play music...

Black and white ones...

I have magazines from when she died...

I have paper dolls...

I have lots of newspaper's...

You see I have a very strong admiration for any one that will take their money and fame to try and help those less fortunate...This sweet young Princess didn't care if you had aids or was disfigured she would reach out and touch not just you but your heart...She could have choose to walk around with just a Royal wave and an empty purse hanging from her arm...But she choose to walk around with a BIG Hug and a Huge Heart and touched all she met...Like Elton John said she Lived her life like a "Candle in the wind"....Gone but not forgotten...She will always be a Flame in my heart...Princess Diane 1961-1997.
( I first did this post in 2009 but just wanted to re-share it with you today)

Until next time from my mountain to yours.

Hugs and smiles Gl♥ria

~We don't need no stinkin toys~

Hello !! 

Bet you thought I got lost..no such luck lol!! I have been spending alot of time with Landen..he loves to come to my house because I don't have toys ha ha!! Oh no Gigi's got great stuff to play with...I don't need NO stinking toys at her house... I can play for hours without them.

 

We have vintage picnic baskets to sit in...

I

We have yogurt and learn to even use a spoon.

And we can make the BIGGEST mess in the world and Gigi don't care...

 

She just puts me in her blue sink and it all comes out in the wash

Landen will be one year old on Sept 17th

mean while Gigi is trying to clean out her hallway hutch and put all her white things in it...

So many things have been going on around here...some of you already know that I had a few mini strokes and I have been going through a ton of test (MRI, brain cat scan etc.) now to see what is causing these...I still have to have a stress test and a wear a 30 day heart monitor which I will have put on this Wednesday..WOW!! had I known I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself lol!!
All kidding aside I have been trying to spend as much time with my love ones..Be good to one another as life as you know it can change in a heart beat...
I love all of you and really have missed blogging the way I use to...But I'm so trying to make good memories for my grand babies..

Until next time from my mountain to yours,


Hugs and smiles Gloria
