Time rolls by.... 50 years of thoughts.
So I decided to post this, but I'll only post it once for a short while
so don't blink and miss it!!!
In case you were desperately wondering
WHO is GUESTBRIEF???
Here are some brief descriptions of my life. In honor of my 50 years.I graduated from High School in Missouri and
left immediately for an engineering college in Tx. This is me at 18:
The Army wanted me for a mechanical position
but I turned them down bc I didn't want to shower with a crowd! lol
I got married and had seven children.
We were taking a picture with my sister and I trimmed the pic
and used it for a facebook profile and got this shot.
For our 25th wedding anniversary, my husband and I went on a cruise.
This pic was taken at the turtle farm in the Caymen Islands.
Another facebook profile a few years later....
And three more children later!At my second son's graduation in Pennsylvania.
It was an outdoor shot and looked greyer than I was then.
But I am about that grey now...... :}
And I am still working on that engineering degree....There you have it. More than you ever wanted to know about
me. Hope your day is blessed.

That was nice to know. Thanks for posting. Fifty years goes by in a hurry doesn't it? At least it seemed so to me as I look back at it.
@vexations - It has indeed gone by very quickly!!
@jillcarmel - Thanks Jill!!
Happy birthday, Rhonda! That's an impressive 50 years -- I hope the next 50 will be as good for you!
@slmret - Thanks!!
Happy 50th Birthday to you. Thanks for sharing this information with us
Nice and brief synopsis of your adult life... 7 or 10 kids?? Are any of them still at home??
Christmas must be wild at your house! :)
@greatredwoman - Ten kids total. oldest is turning 29 this week and youngest two are 7yo twin girls. Christmas is fun.
One is in Taiwan teaching english and one is on tour in Phoenix with a horse show. It's fun to have them all home and none are married yet. Thanks.
Aw, happy birthday! I love looking at pictures.May you be blessed as well as you continue towards your degree.
Happy Birthday, Rhonda!
Happy Birthday!!! I hope you have many more and get that degree you've been working on.
Happy Birthday! Thanks for sharing. I'm four years ahead of you.

@naphtali_deer - Thanks very much for those kind thoughts. Shining brighter and brighter as you go seems a lovely aspiration.

@buddy71 - Thank you friend!!
You look awesome at 50!! Best wishes on your birthday.
Happy Birthday Rhonda, So you are the same age as me. It must be so much fun when all the kids are at home.
Time flies. It is like just yesterday when I saw the most beautiful girl in the world. She is now 77. Where did the time go?
Happy 50!!!

Happy 50th! Your life has certainly been full so far! With all those kids, I think it will continue to be full for a long time!! Good luck with your degree.
I was 50 once....Feels good to be hitting your prime eh?
@Bricker59 - It's good, thanks!
look at you! : )
it's good to see more photos of you.
@plantinthewindow - I can only stand having my pics up for so long and then they have to come down.... : P but thank you for your kind thoughts. <3
I'm glad I got to see this because you've been kind of a mystery. Interesting! I've been an engineer in the Wichita area for 40 years, now. Happy Birthday!
@rnjennison - I've enjoyed your posts that talk about your engineer daughter...
I am working on an electrical engineering degree... maybe some light at the end of the tunnel now that I can take classes online!
Sorry to be such a mystery.
At last I see and know more about you . There is so long we are on Xanga.
I did not know at all you got seven children . Congratulations and this makes you younger yet
Happy birthday , Rhonda !
Love
Michel
Hope your birthday was happy. Is your hair still that curly? Mine has gotten straight.
I have 7 children too. The oldest is 53 and the youngest is 28. 15 grandchildren so far, and 3 great-grands. Most of them live near us. One lives in TX with her hubby and 4 kids.
@ata_grandma - that was a perm... but it has become more curly than it use to be.
Thanks! I have ten but none of them is married yet. I am looking forward to grandchildren someday!
