It is not something I could do - not the driving part but putting up with the kids part. Bless you!

Before moving here, Tom and I were regulars at the Public Library ... for a while, I even harbored plans to be a librarian when I grew up. (How pathetic is that? LOL) <br />Yes, I enjoy chit-chatting with God throughout day.

I did not forget my bus driver.<br />I walk around talking to God too. I ask Him to help me find things all of the time and every single time He does. Loved your answers!

It seems to me there was a recipe for a homemade sauce that went along with that recipe that I made the first time I cooked those ribs. I don't remember if it had sugar, but only part of us liked it. It had chilies in it and was kind of spicy.<br />I can drive, but I let my CDL go after I left bus driving behind. I can't drive a motorcycle. I don't think I've ever even been on one.<br />Nope, swearing's not a good trait and I had to have God help me give it up, too.

I might have run screaming for the hills if I had thought of all that other stuff back in the beginning.

I do have library cards and have lately been checking out more books, but I prefer to have my own books to read. I feel guilty about the expense of books (which really isn't much) because I get most of my books at thrift stores or used through Amazon. I hope you have a good weekend and that Tim has a Happy Father's Day!

Church is to be a baptism service and picnic at a local park...think I'm passing on that since no one else would go with me and picnic in the rain? No thanks. Hubby had wanted to work on the pool deck, but that's probably out, too.

I always end up owing a bunch of late fees. I just buy lots of used books, either at the library's sales or while thrifting...and then I donate them to the libray for their used sale the next year.Stacyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06316595488903619354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6603212089279735635.post-58617952147646521992021-06-19T08:54:30.513-04:002021-06-19T08:54:30.513-04:00#3, I finally got my driver's license in my tw...#3, I finally got my driver's license in my twenties. <br />#9, me too. <br />Have a great Saturday. <br /><br />https://gloriasretiredlife.blogspot.com/<br />Gloria https://www.blogger.com/profile/09139427375406468783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6603212089279735635.post-14935049001417412332021-06-19T08:49:00.950-04:002021-06-19T08:49:00.950-04:00I've been asking my husband to find a good rib...I've been asking my husband to find a good ribs recipe. He does all the grilling too. Well, all the cooking, actually. I can open a can and heat things. *lol* Anyway, it's gotten too expensive to buy anything pre-cooked anymore. I'll go check your recipe. If it has sugar, we can substitute something that doesn't spike my blood sugar. <br />You're a bus driver too?! Wow. You can do anything! I can drive a double clutch transmission but never got a certification for it. I love driving anything. And I can ride almost any motorcycle around. So, there's that. <br />I had an "oppsy" yesterday when the dog we're babysitting BARKED really loud near my ear. I'm bad about the darn word (but not darn) still. Working on it with God's help. My adopted father spewed forth all kinds of filth and anger during his time on earth. I learned it all from him and I'm trying to unlearn all of it! It's not an admirable trait to be able to "swear".<br />Blessings. xxSparkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531515666554867421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6603212089279735635.post-62506601154909054022021-06-19T07:30:39.666-04:002021-06-19T07:30:39.666-04:00#3 -- I can see why that would be intimidating.

So getting your license and being a good driver is quite an accomplishment.

Then the pandemic hit and the library was closed. Even tho they are open now, I haven't gotten back in the habit. Sadly, I don't seem to want to read as much as I did before. I hope I get back into it again someday, but for now I mostly read here in blogland and then hubby and I have been watching some shows on TV together, so that has taken the place of reading. I hope you have a happy Father's Day weekend. Our youngest son does the grilling here, but I think we are going out to a local BBQ place for lunch on Sunday instead of cooking. It's too hot to grill...Pamela M.
