Joyce Godwin: April 2009
http://joycegodwin.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 29, 2009. Texas Medical Board misbehaving. I think a new underground community has sprung up in recent years. I just returned from a hearing in which a friend was under scrutiny and in danger of permanently losing his medical license. It was suspended pending a hearing. And what did he do to earn this trouble? He took care of his patients and lived by all the rules. Why is no effort made to vet the person making the complaint? If interested in more information see the following Web sites:.

Joyce Godwin: February 2010
http://joycegodwin.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 21, 2010. Sunday worship at the Boot Camp. Sunday morning had a different start for the Godwins than usual. Instead of attending our home church, we were out the door and on the road by 7:30 am to join the young cadets at the Grayson County Juvenile Boot Camp. Billy Wayne and I were among a small group of adult volunteers granted admission to participate in a church and worship service with 50 or more young men. The song talks about experiencing storms in life. “But even in the...8220;Th...

Joyce Godwin: April 2010
http://joycegodwin.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 4, 2010. Easter morning brings Christians together. Charlie and Gloria Morton of Denison will go through the motions many of us go through on Easter morning. Wake up, maybe have breakfast and probably take in a church service before heading back home to take care of regular duties at the Inn of Many Faces in Denison. I know Gloria because she and I are in Bible study together so we, as a group, have prayed for Dimitri the past couple of years — this is not his first tour to a war zone.

Joyce Godwin: Have you ever had a song stuck in your head?
http://joycegodwin.blogspot.com/2009/12/have-you-ever-had-song-stuck-in-your.html
Thursday, December 10, 2009. Have you ever had a song stuck in your head? I attended a church service last week and one of the songs we sang was “Marching to Zion.”. Well, the tune stuck in my head. I was humming it, singing it and hearing it in my head constantly. So much so that by the end of the week, I was ready to catch a new song. But, back to my original story. After seeing the penguin yard art, the movie title went through my mind. Once I heard the word “march,” the whole morning of r...Our child...

Joyce Godwin: A special father
http://joycegodwin.blogspot.com/2010/06/special-father.html
Tuesday, June 22, 2010. I wrote the following for the Herald Democrat Life section for last Sunday:. I know another special father who lives in Van Alstyne. You might think I’m going to write about my husband Billy Wayne here, but although he is a special father, he’s not the subject of this writing. I remember her saying she wouldn’t get married until she found someone just like Griff. She eventually found her Griff, but that is another story. One special thing I remember is a Valentine surprise Griff o...

Joyce Godwin: Back to school
http://joycegodwin.blogspot.com/2010/08/back-to-school.html
Monday, August 23, 2010. I did a similar story that ran Monday in the Herald Democrat. Recent stories we ran in the paper about the first day of school triggered flashes of my own first day more than 50 years ago. As I recall, I was pretty "matter of fact" about the event. I was excited because I was going to learn to read. I couldn't wait. I was dressed in a little pleated skirts with matching suspenders, a white blouse, little white socks and black patten shoes and so was each of the other girls. W...

Joyce Godwin: Sledding down memory lane
http://joycegodwin.blogspot.com/2010/02/sledding-down-memory-lane.html
Sunday, February 14, 2010. Sledding down memory lane. Recent photos on Facebook, a popular Internet social network, of several Van Alstyne families sledding on our snow-covered hill, brought back fond memories of when I was little and living in Toledo, Ohio. I remember that we went to school no matter how much snow fell. We didn’t learn about snow days until we moved to Gainesville, Texas. I was 12, and that was a long time ago.
