Work friends A & S

A & S worked together at the Fed, until they hired on at P., where I met them.

When gas went to $4.00/gal, S & I began carpooling together. The three of us meet occasionally over lunch or coffee and talk about how things change, which they do in a wide variety of ways for all of us.



A & S are friendly and focused about their lives and families, and I like that we've kept in touch since I retired from P.

It's nice to be able to put a face with the names, or initials, that we've heard about. : )

The Gentle Smith Matriarch

We met in 1966 when she was 18 and I was 22. We began dating soon afterward, and as I recall never disagreed on much. Our childhood homes were 3000 miles apart and we loved Minnesota and each other, so we got engaged in July 67, married in December and moved into a house with a teenage foster daughter. This was followed by , Daughter 1 the following September, Daughter 2 three years later, Daughter 3, a year and a half later, ..and eventually Son, 3 years later. There were also about 15 different short-term teen-foster boys in those years. The gentle matriarch has worked her whole life, hard. I went to college nights for a few years, she worked outside the home part-time while the kids were growing. She spent frugally, loved lavishly, and has always cared first and foremost about her family. She is a gentle giant who has brought love, fun, discipline, imagination, good food, and artistic, creative homemaking to our big family....and as I write this she's preparing for Easter Dinner...
