Hi! I had a double hernia surgery and colon surgery done on Friday, September 27, 2013. Everything went well.

A Few Thoughts 2

Hello! Wow, a number of things to discuss today. First off, it's 9/11. Surprised I haven't talked about it in here before. Of course that's the day on Sept. 11, 2001, the terrorist attack in New York City on the World Trade Center. Many lives died, horrible day in American history. Muslim radicals. We will never forget. Today is the 12th anniversary of that day. 

On to other things. In 2012, had family reunion in Ocean Park, Maine. That turned out to be very nice! Me and Charlene had a very nice drive to Maine. The place where we were staying at was real nice, having been paid for. Thank you! It was good to see everyone. Then about the last day there, I got real sick! Glad I'm feeling much better now.

Me and Charlene have been married at least 1 yr. now. Celebrated 1st anniversary and honeymoon. Charlene is a very special person in my life! Glad that God put us together.

A few places that we have been to: Frankenmuth, Michigan & Fountain Hills, Arizona. Also Scottsdale, Arizona. Hope to move to Arizona in the future. Real nice place. Hot! It's for sure that me and Charlene love to travel. Good memories, too many to list here. I'm 63, Charlene is 65. That's it for now. God bless!

Married! Jeff & Charlene Ede

Hello! Wow, it's been years since I've posted in here. November 1, 2008 to be exact. Number of things have happened since then. Retired from Securitas Security in 2007, open heart surgery in 2008, family reunion in 2009, turned 60 in 2011, and got married to Charlene Bates on March 24, 2012! That happened 1 month ago, today. Also, Barak Obama is our new president. Family reunion was very nice, had very nice cabins. June 21-28, 2009 at Oak Haven Resort in Sevierville, TN. Looking forward to the next reunion in Maine in June, 2012. God bless and have a nice day!

A Few Thoughts 1

Hi. Well, today is a new month! November 2008. It was on Oct. 24 that I had hernia surgery. And this journal has moved here from where it used to be located. This would be the first post in the new location! I'm glad Halloween is over. Now we can get ready for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the new year, 2009. Election Day is on Nov. 4. New President will be elected. Also, I now have high speed broadband internet! It's really nice and much faster than dialup.

All is well with the Computer

Hi! Well, I'm back at my computer again. The hard drive went bad on me and I had to get a new hard drive. It's good to have a good computer again! Also, it looks like there will be a family reunion, June 21-28, 2009 at Oak Haven Resort in Sevierville, TN. Should be fun!

4th of July Birthday Celebration!

I'll turn 57 on July 4th, 2008. Time to celebrate!

Various Thoughts

Wow, it's really been a year since I last put a post in here? How time flies. Ok. What has happened this last year in my life? Well, there was a Hope Temple reunion on July 21, 2007. That was nice. I had open-heart surgery in January of this year. Purchased a new computer. And there's going to be a family reunion in 2009. That's about it for now. Have a good day!
