My Six Random Things

I decided to post a picture for each fact I told about myself. As many of you know, putting in tobacco was my first job.

This was a hard, dirty job. We worked until the barn was full of tobacco. We handed, tied it on the stick, laid it in a pile. When the primers came to the barns we helped pass the sticks in and they hung it high up in the barn. I learned to work Hard for the money.

My next job was mother. I had three children.

I'm not saying I was that good a mother, but my three children have made my husband and me so proud. I think Mother was my Best job.

And I taught Sunday School.

This was probably one of my most Important jobs. I truly enjoyed the classes I had.

I was a Den Mother for some cub scouts.

This was probably one of the most Fun things I have ever done. This is a group of fine young men now.

My last paying job was in retail. I had jobs in a factory and other retail stores before this one.

This was enjoyable work. Our store was right in the middle of the mall. All outside events happened right in front of our store. We even sponsored some of the models and furnished the clothes for fashion shows. I Learned a lot working with this fine group of people.

Now I'm old. I called myself retired. Only trouble is.. my husband didn't retire. Here is where I would like to be.

Never the less, I must learn to be Content and accept things the way they are. I can look back and see the Hand of GOD throughout my life. HE's never failed me. HIS Mercy is everlasting and HIS Truth endureth forever.

I have decided not to tag anyone. If you would like to do this, I would ask that you let me know so I can read your story. And be sure to go see
Mary and learn more about her.
