I want to pay tribute to my Dad, Harold Woolsey. He orchestrated the construction most of the homes built east of Barstow Road and North of Idle Spurs and I found out last night that he built the housing track in Yermo. He also built Hawaiian Village homes, Skyline homes, Montara homes, Fashion Square, Irwin Estates, and homes east of Yucca Street. For a while his business was Woolsey and Associates, then it was Hood and Woolsey. I am very proud of him. I think he built 8 housing tracks in the Barstow area.
If he was alive today I believe he would still be figuring out a way to get families into affordable housing. He was a visionary who cared for people.
Thank you Dad.

Fun?

I don't know how to have fun any more. I love my home, my dogs, my adult children, my friends, but what about fun? Don't get me wrong, I enjoy life. This weekend was my 40 year class reunion and a graduation party for a dear friend's daughter. I did not attend either of these events, because I just did not feel like having fun. I spent the evening at home relaxing. Maybe that is what I need to be doing right now in my life. Maybe "fun" is just too much trouble right now.
I want to loose weight and get in better shape, so I have started in that direction. I think that will actually be fun; walking, eating right and paying attention to my health.
Praying that whoever reads this will have a great day ! ! !

Time for change ! ! !

I started out this year thinking, "This is going to be a great year." For the most part it has been great, but with all the good things that have happened there have been some real struggles.
