ABOUT ME
Hello. To various folks I am Neat’nee, Mom, Grandma Neta, Gramma, Aunt Neta, Aunt Noni, Aunt Neno, and Aunt Neto (lots of varieties from little nieces and nephews). To some I’m more like “Didn’t you used to be my teacher?” or “Don’t I know you from someplace?” To you, perhaps, I am a Fellow Blogger. Not “fellow” like a male or a guy, but “fellow” like a companion or an adventurer. I would choose to be Grandma Blogger, and have you pull up a chair, my website before you, while I tell you of some days of yore. I have experienced life much differently than most of you. It was and is a good life. I hope to share nuggets of appreciation for those who have gone before me and those who come after me. By necessity you are among those who come after me and I will tell you of those who came before. Once upon a time in a little house on a prairie - oops, change that lest I commit plagiarism - and change that “house on the prairie” to “dugout on the prairie.” So my story begins...
Sweet aroma 
Congratulations to both of you!
Thank you, Judy. Have a blessed day.
I always love a good love story !!!!!
I avoided mentioning a couple other girls! I wasn’t the only peach on the tree. 😀
You were the sweetest and he knew that!!!
Thanks from one sweet peach to another. 😀
I do know my peaches 🍑
Ahhhh, happy anniversary!
I just read your post today. I might have been courted the last decade for this to be a love story for some folks.
Happy anniversary!
😀 Thank you.
Beautiful love story.
😀 Thank you.
Congratulations to you both. I don’t think I know anyone who has been married as long. That’s beautiful xxx.
Unfortunately a lot of the marriages from that long ago have been shortened by death. I have a lot of widows whose marriages would have lasted longer but death prohibited it. One blessing of growing old in age.
Yes, sadly same for my Mum and Dad x they had 50 golden years together before Dad died x.
Fifty seems to be the magic for many couples who make long and loving marriages. After that the reason is almost always “til death do us part.” Sorry for your lose but I know you have precious memories. My dad died when he was 63 so he and mom were shorted in making the fifty.
A lovely post. Is it possible we may make sixty years together in 2030? David and I. . At this stage even being still alive seems like a vision. ONLY GOD!
Congratulations to both of you!
We are aiming for a quiet island holiday when we both turn 80 in 2023. Even that is a God Goal one day at a time. We chose each other. Both after deciding we would not not get married. Then BOOM our lives connected and the rest is history (So it has been said). Blessings!
Congratulations. You are both blessed to still have each other. May it long be true.
Beautiful history. J.
This is beautiful! Congratulations!
Thanks for reading. You are kind to take time for a comment. I will try to visit in in return.
Aww…such sweet and lovely memories. Wonder of wonder – God has chosen us. Wonder of wonder – God put you and Sammy together. God bless y’all.
