"Time moves slowly, but passes quickly."
{Last week: Scroll to end and click "Older Posts" at bottom right.} On this blog I share with family and friends my daily thoughts, doings, what interests me, and--at times--tributes to my eternal sweetheart, Walt, who graduated to heaven on 8-21-2020.
Dedicated to our seven children--Janie, Gary, Steve, David, Julie, Brian, Jen, their spouses, our 39 grandchildren, 6 great-grandchildren, and posterity to come.

Appointment with my
Retina specialist today.
Matthew helped check my
eyesight and numbing
my eye.
Dr. Goff is an excellent
Retinologist.
Thank you, Dr. Goff,
for helping control my
macular degeneration.
Gary drove a couple blocks
north to Arctic Circle where
we get something after these
appointments, but they
were "Closed for
maintenance until further notice."
So we drove to JCW'S at
Traverse Mtn. and got
something.
Thanks for driving

Our Wednesday night movie was:
"THE GHOST AND MRS. MUIR" 1947
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir (1947)Director: Joseph L. Mankiewicz
"Ghostly romances aren’t terribly common on this list, outside of entries that you’d expect to find such as the titular Ghost, but there are a few of merit. The Ghost and Mrs. Muir stands out as a classic ’40s romantic fantasy, following a young widower who moves with her young daughter into a seaside home, where she meets the cantankerous, rough-around-the-edges ghost of its former sea captain owner. Slowly, a most unlikely romance blooms between the two, as our protagonist (Gene Tierney) uses the life experiences of the captain (Rex Harrison) to write a best-selling memoir. It’s all fairly straightforward, replete with the kinds of “misunderstandings” and false starts you’d expect in most romances of the period, but Harrison is rather dashing as Captain Gregg, and the bittersweet ending is the stuff of Golden Age Hollywood glitz and glamor. It’s an excellent “ghost movie” for date night, provided you’re dating a historical film buff. —Jim Vorel"

Quotes by Sheri Dew
are always insightful...
Mix a little foolishness with your prudence; it's good to be silly at the right moment.
Walt told me several times that
he hoped Heavenly Father had
a sense of humor. In fact, he
thought that He did.
When we were with someone
who said something outlandish,
Walt would glance at me, then
give me a wink...letting me know
he always had my back.
Sure do love that guy.
Looking forward to being
with him again some day
in heaven. But not
for a while. ~ ~ ~
Here's some of my fun remembrances
of him...
June 1961--We'd been married for a week. Walt worked with his carpenter Dad to earn
money to buy the gas to get back to
St. Louis, where we headed the next week.
We considered it our honeymoon as we
drove through Yellowstone Park, staying
overnight in a cabin and sightseeing half a
day.
Our first Christmas - 1961
We strung popcorn to decorate
our tree.
St. Louis -- 1962
One night before finals Walt
piled up his medical books
and said he just had to go
through that many books
before morning.
He chewed on licorice
while he studied.
SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 2023 Family is Everything…
Rendezvousing -- Steve took me
to J.Dwags for supper.
'then we went to see
The Little Mermaid
The film is dedicated to the late Howard Ashman, who co-produced and co-wrote the songs from the original film.
The Little Mermaid premiered at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on May 8, 2023,[5] and was released in the United States on May 26. It received mixed reviews from critics, who praised the performances of the cast and the musical sequences but criticized the visual effects and character designs. The film has grossed over $414 million worldwide against a total production budget of $250 million.
Steve said at the end:
"I didn't know I would
like it this much."
I really liked it, too!
We both thought the
cinematography was
amazing and beautiful.

"...my Grace is suffieient..."Daily Scripture: And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them. - Ether 12:27
Daily Quote: As we humble ourselves and exercise faith in Jesus Christ, the grace of Christ and His infinite atoning sacrifice make it possible to change. - Kevin S. Hamilton

about death:
* *I am so thankful for The Plan of Salvation and the Atonement of Jesus Christ that makes this
Great Plan operational.At the end of this June 11th,I pray you have had a
restful , peaceful, and spiritual
Sabbath Day...
I share these truths as my testimony to you...
Heavenly Father lives and knows us each by name. He loves us and wants us to return to Him and Heavenly Mother when we leave this mortal existence. He loves us just as we are at this very moment. He knows what our potential is.*** *** ***Jesus Christ came to earth as The Only Begotten of the Father and fulfilled the Atonement. He is the Redeemer of all.Daily Scripture: Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. - Matthew 25:13
Daily Quote: More than ever before, we are required to confront the reality that we are getting ever closer to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. - Christoffel Golden
*** *** ***I am thankful for the guidance of the Holy Ghost as the third member of the Godhead. Walt said to me once: "I look forward to thanking the Holy Ghost in person when I get to Heaven. I don't think we give Him enough credit for all He does."
*** *** *** *** ***Joseph Smith was foreordained to be the Prophet of the Restoration. He is the Restorer of all things.*** *** ***President Russell M. Nelson is the Living Prophet today for all the world. *** *** ***The Bible is "the Word of God as far as it is translated correctly" and is a Testament of the Divinity of Jesus Christ.*** *** ***
The Book of Mormon is the Word of God and is Another Testament of Jesus Christ. It is the most correct book of any book on earth.*** *** ***The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the True Church on the earth today. Because of the restored Temple Ordinances families can be sealed for eternity.
