My Earliest Memories With My Mom

  My Earliest Memories With My Mom 

By Eric Poppy 

5/13/2021

    My earliest memories with my Mom I recall them like this.  I remember sitting in the car for instance, going from Springtown, Texas, to Shreveport, Louisiana.  Sitting in the back seat.  I can remember my brother being in the car.  So, it was after 1985.  I could see the difference in the soil the moment we crossed the state line.  Or, my Mom going into 7/11 and buying a drink.  A big gulp.  Tea or diet coke.  She would always give me and David a sip.  Or, when my Mom made a Mickey Mouse cut sandwich for me.  Watching Andy Griffith or Little House on the Prairie.  

    I do not have many pictures from this era.  But when I find some, I will upload them.  The pictures give proof of what happened.  Like they say, "A picture is worth a thousand words".  The pictures also give something visual.

    Speaking of pictures.  I remember when my Mom would go to take pictures of me, or the family.  She put so much effort into getting each picture correct.  It made me uncomfortable taking pictures.  But now, I am glad she did that.  I appreciate the effort now that I am older.

    Some of my memories when we lived in Fort Worth.  I remember going to swimming lessons.  Or, when Mom would wake up extra early before school.  She would make sandwiches for my brother and me for lunch.  Another time, right before we moved to Washington.  I remember how we went to an event at the school.  I won a basketball.  My brother won Chuck-E-Cheese coins.  We had fun with both.  Dad was there for that.  Or, when we went and watched the Fourth of July celebration that summer.  Or, early efforts of my Mom teaching me to read.


Me and my niece, Adelaide

One day.  My sister came over.  I was feeling down that day.  It sometimes happens.  But she let me spend some time with my little niece, Adelaide.  This made me feel happy.  I thought of how we might get to do fun things when she is older.  She has an older brother named Brice.

Completing This Post

 I saw this unfinished post from October 30, 2024.  So, I decided to finish it.  I cannot remember what it was going to be about!  So, I will do my best, to put a complete thought.  I am at work right now, too!  Maybe I should not be posting- oh, well. I am not even sure how to share an image here!  But maybe that is ok.  Normally, on this blog I share an image, or a video, or music.  Mostly from YouTube, because I like the platform and have supported it in the past.  But now it is not allowing me to share here, from YouTube.   Anyways, I am sitting in my car.  All day it's been raining off and on.  I guess there is flooding at this time in part of Texas known as "The Hill" Country.  At a camp, some girls were killed in the flooding!  They have received historic amounts of water. I have been researching about something known as "Epic City", it is a "Master planned" city, with Sharia Law at its root!  Sh...

In the Last Days Jesus Said: 'No Flesh Would be Saved'.... But Why?

This video is over a week old, but it is under 20 minutes long.  About Artificial Intelligence and something else- Transhumanism. Be aware of what is out there.  Don't be a sheep.  "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples" (John 8:31). This video is a brief disection of different sources on AI, and Transhumanism.  In it, the author "Watchman" contrasts it with Frankenstein.  Meanwhile, Watchman takes a look at the scripture in Luke, where Jesus describes the "End Times".  The shortening of the days, for the elect's sake.  This video will give you a "big picture" understanding of what is involved in Transhumanism in a way that you have not viewed it yet.  It is good, and as I said brief.  Grab some popcorn, sit back, and prepare to be informed.

COVID 19 Pandemic

 The Pandemic started earlier than people realize.  Although the lockdown began on March 13, 2019.  The Pandemic began in December 2019.  Hence the name, COVID-19.  The pandemic is still going on.  Here in Texas, the Governor has removed the mask requirement at the state level.  But at the local level some mask mandates are still on going.  Image provided by dshs.texas.gov At Albertsons where I work.  They still require a mask.  Unless someone is vaccinated.  We are required to test for COVID prior to work at a kiosk.  Once we have the test from the kiosk, the kiosk prints off a picture of the person.  Then, you are required to wear a mask.
