I was probably a mere 9 or 10 years old. I went to St. Joseph's Catholic Church with Patsy Ann (a cousin) for Thanksgiving Bingo. Mother was so worried about not having money for food that year & as we played Bingo for my first time officially I got a BINGO but didn't know what to do so, I tapped Patsy Ann & said 'I have a Bingo, I think' ... she went bonkers yelling BINGO & embarrassed me to death ... I WON A HAM & we had meat for dinner ... Mother was so surprised, I got a hug. Patsy Ann won something, too, but I don't remember what.I hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful, full of laughter & joys, love ...
May we remember at this time we have so much to be thankful for ~
* Our military for continuing to provide protection for our freedoms, despite what they go thru doing so ... & pray for the souls that have gone before in doing this tough job for us
* To our forefathers for outlining our constitution & rights & freedoms as our nation was founded with God included as a fundamental basis
* The love of our lives, our families, our joys
* Foremost, GOD as our one & only supreme being
A wonderful memory to share Marydon. Hope you have had an enjoyable day.
