Off to a New Year!

A special someone gave me the plate on this shelf awhile back and it reminds me everyday what a special gift life is.
This next Friday is the beginning of a New Year and already I have started on my resolutions. I didn't gain any pounds over Christmas, I am back on all the meds at the right dosage again, and I have made a vow to attend church every Sunday unless I am contagious to others.
The treadmill is up and running, hopefully with me on it starting Monday and with any luck I will lose a few more fat globs from my old body.
Christmas was wonderful....it's always amazing to me how much love, work and time go into a celebration that is over in at most 2 days!! But oh how worth it, it all was. I loved having my family close and seeing them all happy and having fun.
Happy New Year Everyone!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Odie and I just wanted to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy, Joyful New Year.
Remember that our Heavenly Father has your best interest at heart. He knows what you need and he wants you to have all the blessings that he has in store for you. All you have to do is love and respect him and talk to him often.
Happy Holidays!

Quick Update

I am sleeping again and sorry about the two depressing blogs before. I am sleeping well now and having "another life" dreams which are very restful!
thanks for putting up with me!

Insomnia

The insomnia fairy visited me last night! I was able to sleep in 1-2 hour shifts, wide awake in-between. I'd get up, go potty, get a drink of water and go back to bed only to toss and turn and feel all itchy. Finally doze off and start all over again.
Finally got up at 6:15 and feel like this little fairy looks!
I wanted to get so much done today. Maybe that is why I couldn't sleep.....knew I'd have to work hard if I slept well.
Or........maybe it was the 1/2 cup of chocolate chips I treated myself to before turning out the light?????

Dropping Stuff

Although I'm not out picking up sticks in the cold, it does seem like I am always dropping stuff and having to pick them up again.
Is this part of old age?
Have I lost my ability to hold on to stuff?
Have all the little tiny microscopic grippers on my fingers rubbed off?
Or is my body telling me I need more bending and stretching exercise?
Whatever it is.......I just wish I would stop!!

A baby "sitting" day.

Do you see what I see?
I see a boat being pulled by a big brother!

Do you see what I see?
I see a bird, it's a plane, it's Gage the Superman!


Do you see what I see?
A rough riding cowboy going faster than the speed of light!

Do you see what I see?

A Batman impersonator being tough.

Do you see what I see? No me either.....a well worn out grandma!!
