Photos, photos, photos – etc.

I undertook a project that is lasting a hell of a lot longer than anticipated. I decided to scan all of the photos that we can find in the computer and were going to put them on a jump drive and put that in the safe. Mom always said that if there was a fire the 1st thing she do is get the pets and daughters outside and then she'd worry about the photos. So I have finished scanning all the photos in the house, that's step one. Next step is to label the pictures on the computer pictures, that's step 2. Step 3 will be writing on the back of the pictures if they aren't already labeled. Ma, I could really throw a water balloon at you or something, did you ever really realize how many photos aren't labeled? Step 3 is going to be quite a task. A lot of them we recognize people or places and approximate years, but there are a lot that we don't. Were going to try to do a Google and tineye search on some of them and hope for the best. Here is a picture of the pictures,

Legal Southener!

Mom; Finally got everything together for switching over my driver's license.  Name change completed, legal papers in hand along with birth certificate, SSN card, proof of residency, $20 and court decree. Not a problem switching my CA license for a GA one now that my name is legally my name again. That is a HUGE stressor done away with. If they demanded one more step to show how my name became hyphenated we would have been out of luck and my CA license was due to expire at the end of January.  Hence the reason I wanted the name change legal before November, just to give us some lee-way if there was a problem. Going through the papers in the safe turned out to be a little difficult. Your marriage and divorce decrees, medical cards and your own GA license. For some reason it hurt - once again thinking that you just can't be gone, Mom. How could it have happened so fast? Missing you, Mama. Oh, btw, what happened between you and James C?
