Hi Connie
I am someone you knew in our way, way past. I was almost 6 when we moved away from Albuquerque and the one thing I remember most about leaving, was leaving my friend Connie. My maiden name is Lyddon and our parents/families were pretty close, and spent quite a bit of time together. We went to the same church and I remember always looking for your families peach and gray Chevy. I am not sure which year it was, but a '55, '56 or '57ish model. My brother is Phil and you called him "Willip." I still call him that from time-to-time. My dad mentioned that he had seen that your mother passed in December, so I went looking for the obituary and found your name. In my research of you I found that your are a writer, and found this blog. I sent you a facebook friend request, As you can see, I didn't turn into much of a writer. God Bless You and your writing. I look forward to reading your blog and it looks like your book is much loved, so will have to check it out!

Thank you. I haven't been very faithful about posting lately. I will try to get back to devotions when I finish the book I am writing.

Evelyn Ray, yes I am a member of ACFW and the DFW group. I am also a member of the North Texas Living Waters Critique group that meets at Brazos Covenant Church off 377 behind Big Lots. Both groups meet on the same Saturday. When I go to the DFW group, I usually meet a friend in Cresson and ride with her. I also belong to Granbury Writers' Bloc, which meets the fourth Monday of each month at 5:00 for critique followed by a short meeting with snacks and either a program or second critique. I welcome you to any of these groups and look forward to meeting you.

I found your website through the ACFW member directory after learning from another member that we live in the same little town.I browsed around a little-I'll have to come back when I have time to stay awhile. The DFW meetings are quite a drive from here, so I've never gone. But apparently there's a group from North Texas Christian Writers that meets here in town? I wasn't aware of that group-may have to check it out. Nice to "meet" you.

Claudia, it sounds like you have had a great life. Could you please send me your email? Mine is [email protected]
11:53 PM on December 12, 2013
Hi Connie, I remember we had many good times when we were kids! I have also thought of you. I have stayed here in Albuquerque. I retired after teaching for 31 years. I have had many interesting jobs after retiring. I worked at a Peruvian import clothing store for 5 years, and a Ladies Workout Express gym for a year and a half. I do beadwork, sewing and crochet work which I sell at craft fairs, so I am busy with the craft fairs during the holiday season. I have traveled all over the world. I stay busy taking lots of classes. I am not on Facebook. If you ever come to Albuquerque, it would be wonderful to get together with you!
11:55 PM on December 7, 2013
Claudia, it's so good to hear from you. I've often thought of you. Gary and I married in 1970, before I graduated. We were afraid he was going to be drafted, and he was shortly after we were married. He was in the Army for two years, and when we went back to Albuquerque, I lost track of almost everyone. Yes, Shirley Lamunion was one of my brides's maids. The others were Linda Brown, Sharon Seidow, and Jocelyn Brewer. Gary felt called into the ministry, so we moved to Fort Worth in 1980 for him to attend Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. After seminary, we moved to San Angelo where God gifted me with scholarships to attend Angelo State University. Then we moved to Wichita Falls where God once again gifted me with scholarships to Midwestern State and I received a Master's degree in English and education. I taught for 23 years. I retired three years ago so I could write. I completed Jerry Jenkins's Christian Writers Guild last year, but have not yet published my novel. I was offered a part-time teaching position this year, and I absolutely love it.
I'd love to hear about you and your life. Are you on Facebook?

I enjoyed the pictures. You have a great family! I admire how you have joined the writing groups. I remember when we were in Junior High and you decided that you were going to be a writer! I enjoyed seeing your wedding pictures. What year did you get married in? Who were the girls in your wedding party. Was that Shirly Lamonion (not sure of spelling) in the picture? You have a wonderful inspiring website.

Thanks, Mary. Yes, I have been blessed. I thank God for my family of origin and the family He has given me. Kim's wedding was a joyous occasion. I pray that she will be happy. Richie's kids are the light of our life. I get to watch them two days a week when their mother works. I spend the night on Thursdays and come home Fridays. Sometimes when Rich is working, I get to bring them here on Saturday. I wish I had been around Grandma Lewis more because I barely knew her. Perhaps that's why it is so important for me to have time with my grandchildren. You know my mom was only seven when her mother died, and I only saw her father once. My Aunt Lean, my mom's sister, was like a grandmother, a second mother, and a best friend, so she filled in a huge gap in my life.
