Kernels of Life: Getting and renewing driver’s licenses (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When I was 16, I was all excited about getting my driver’s license. I was enrolled in a high school driver’s education program. On one occasion, I scared my instructor for sure. As we were traveling west on the highway near Fleming, I went to pass. A car was coming toward us and I wasn’t picking up enough speed. The instructor stepped on his gas pedal and the high rate of speed we were traveling really scared me. Thankfully, I made the pass just in time. So, it probably isn’t any wonder that I w
Kernels of Life: You’re gonna like it (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This is the 400th story I have written for, “The South Platte Sentinel” since June 27, 2018. My how stories add up! In my last story, I wrote about how our wall unit air conditioner in the living room was on its last thread. Whenever I told someone that we were going to get central air, I heard the same comment, “You’re gonna like it.” I knew it was going to give me stress when the employee from the company came to install the air conditioning unit. It would likely take him a couple of days to g
Kernels of Life: Trying to stay cool (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When we lived on the farm, our house wasn’t air-conditioned. We never even had any fans to help us stay cooler. I remember summer days when it was really hot in the house but most evenings in Colorado cooled off. We usually slept with the windows open. I can recall Mom saying, “There’s a nice breeze coming in from the west.” For us, living without the luxury of air conditioning was just a way of life. This summer has been terribly hot and dry in Kansas. Recently, when Ben watered our grass and m
Kernels of Life: Words not heard often enough (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It isn’t often that someone apologizes to you in person or over the phone when you don’t think an apology was necessary. Probably 30 years ago, I called up my husband’s uncle Louis, who was 81 at the time and lived in Nebraska. The purpose of my phone call was to ask him to write down his memories and send a letter to me on how his dad and he had built a root cellar. I have an enlarged photo that was taken in the 30s of them digging the cellar on their farm. I was interested in learning more abo
Kernels of Life: Lessons for life (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How often have you heard someone comment, “Well, I guess I learned my lesson”? When you heard the statement, it probably wasn’t uttered by a student who had finished his or her homework. More often than not, the remark was made by someone who just discovered a new lesson in life. Many of the early lessons that we learn are taught to us by our parents. At the time, we don’t like them but they should benefit us later on in life. I remember one instance in my teenage years when Dad made a remark th
