Ruston just isn't the same without you! You had a huge presence here and I know you will pick right back up where you left off! And I bet Camille and. It's will enjoy good visits in Ruston too! I'm thankful for you and your encouraging, inspirational and honest words! Ruston will be so blessed by your return. You have been missed!<br />Much love and prayers for an easy transition!<br />RenéeRenee Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08295453265386034730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5416556583423635558.post-14851811753593244352017-06-30T13:33:02.078-05:002017-06-30T13:33:02.078-05:00Thanks for that reminder, Ronnie.

It is likely you will find much happiness being with your brothers and life long friends. I know your grand children are going to miss your constant and immediately available presence but as with any move there are the pros and cons. You have changed and Ruston/Farmerville have changed but that is to be expected. For you the pull was too strong for me I am content to make the occasional visit to the old stomping grounds. Good Luck and Enjoy!Dr. Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18440354447417350400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5416556583423635558.post-22891572055119939242017-06-30T08:32:48.323-05:002017-06-30T08:32:48.323-05:00WOW!!!!

When I was 18, my folks kicked me out, and told me to never return...left a bitter taste...I am the opposite, one can never go home as in "home". However, I am a firm believer that "home" is where you make it. Luckily, our son knows this. Although we lived in Alabama for 20 years, it never felt like home...and I always knew somehow, the good Lord would return me to here to western New York...not quite the place where I want to be--as I sure miss the Catskills, where we first lived many moons ago, but he placed us where we are needed...and NY feels like home. And now look, finishing my education after 20-30 years and He knows what the future holds.<br /><br />How exciting for you...how is your daughter handling this? Just wondering. I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU....sorry for shouting, smiles.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16466115918585699329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5416556583423635558.post-68401109667840828672017-06-30T07:02:49.816-05:002017-06-30T07:02:49.816-05:00Well Victor, one classmate is quoted as replying w...Well Victor, one classmate is quoted as replying when she was called and asked to come, "I didn't like those people in high school." It seems others have your same opinion! Laughing!<br /><br />Fort Worth is 4 hours and 15 minutes away, Victor-- close enough to visit quite often!<br /><br />Blessings, My Friend!Loraluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428559311387283317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5416556583423635558.post-11141298710007880642017-06-30T06:20:44.661-05:002017-06-30T06:20:44.661-05:00It is so good that in your heart you have made a d...It is so good that in your heart you have made a decision to move back to Ruston. I hope and pray the move is done smoothly and that you are happy there in your original home where you are known by so many and loved. I'm sure you can always visit back Fort Worth and your family can visit you too. You are quite brave and adventurous and my guess is the distance between these two places is shorter than the distance to Europe which you visited last year. So it shouldn't be that difficult to drive backwards and forwards when needed.<br /><br />As for school reunions. I'm glad yours went well and you re-met old friends. <br /><br />I had a letter from a head-teacher years ago saying they were planning a schoold reunion. As I have never liked the people I went to school with I saw no reason why I should meet them again and tell them, (in my mind at least), that I still don't like them. No doubt they will all compare their lives and show-off how well they've done. <br /><br />And I'd say in my mind "Ah ... Kenneth, I always thought you'd turn up a bum; and you've proved me right. And Helen ... I always thought your beauty as a youth was only skin deep; and now I bet you're the only one keeping the cosmetic industry afloat. How many ponds they took off in your liposuction? Not enough it seems. And I bet they gave it all to Harry judging from his over-inflated size!"<br /><br />So with those sentiments in mind, I decided not to attend the reunion. But the head-teacher wrote again and persuaded me to go. I wish I hadn't.<br /><br />When I attended, and it was in another town so it cost me in fares and hotel costs, I discovered that all my school mates thought the same and I was the only one there! <br /><br />School reunions? Humbug ... I say ... pure humbug!!! At least I am honest and without prejudice since I disliked them all. Now I dislike the head-teacher too.<br /><br />God bless.
