I'm Celebrating Today!




Today is my birthday and I’m not saying yet how old I am but, gas cost 15 cents per gallon the year I was born.  The average new car was $1,020, a portable typewriter (remember them?) cost $68.37, and World War II ended.  And sadly, my favorite baseball team, the Chicago Cubs lost the World Series to the Detroit Tigers ~ 4 games to 3. 



The microwave oven had not been invented yet, nor had diet soft drinks, the hula hoop, Frisbees, the juke box and credit cards; not to leave out computers, cell phones and McDonalds. 



In Bubba’s words on his blog today:  “Today is the sixth anniversary of the thirtieth anniversary of Mrs. Bubba Sr.’s thirtieth birthday.”  I thank God for every one of them and especially my loving family!

Here's wishing you all a wonderful day!!!
