BEST FRIEND....

MY sweet friend GiGi....gone two years now.....The gap has be been filled with Brayden's dog Chloe and Sherries' two.....Macy and Bongo.  She was 16 years old and hurting......

Next weekend is Conference and Easter Sunday....have no idea what I will be doing.  Just hoping for some good weather soon.  I am ready for warm weather. ....and put some flowers on the patio.....   

CRISIS''.....

In every life some rain must fall........seems to just keep falling in my life lately.......Been fighting arthritis all winter in my shoulders......then my Scotty came home from his mission with cancer....then my sister broke her hip on vacation and this weekend I find out my Sherrie and her husband are having marital problems....funny what a few million dollars will do to a person????   I have always felt "things happen for a reason....just believe.....but I am really being tested.....When your kids hurt....you hurt....Didn't go to church today.....in a terrible mood.  Did have a nice birthday luncheon last Thursday at Suzannes for me, Viveanne and Hilda...such great neighbors.

 

HAPPY 42ND ANNIVERSARY......

Happy anniversary Pam and Rob....#42

This is what happens when you get married and have kids...and the kids have kids...... etc.

You have a great family and I have loved being part of your family for 42 years.   Today is the first day of Spring and ST Patricks day....sun shinning but chilly outside.  Spring needs to get here soon.....Les starting to walk a little.....and our Scotty is hanging in there with his chemo days......

GUESS WE WILL BE SEEING THE EASTER BUNNYS NEXT!

 

HAPPY ST. PATRICS DAY.....

NOT IRISH....DIDN'T WEAR GREEN.....BUT MUCH HAPPINESS TO THOSE WHO ARE CELEBRATING TODAY.....HOLIDAYS ARE FUN.   ENJOY!

 

"ME"

NOT KIDDING....GETTING UP AIN'T EASY ANY MORE! The only problem for me I don't have a big dog or a cat for it to chase......so I just rock back nd forth till I get up the speed to leap up....takes a few minutes.....

Was reading Dr Dyer and have to agree with him....Every thing you do is based on the choices you make......It,'s not your parents , your past relationships, your job, the economy, the weather, an argrument, or your age that is to blame......You and only  you are to blame.....for every choice and decision you make....some of my decisions have got me turning "old"....darnit!...I guess "It is....what it is"

 

BABY SISTER....BABY BROTHER....

Time does pass....Leslie is just recooperating from a broken hip.....and Jim went to see her....Jim grew up with four big sisters and loves us all......the same!  I was fourteen when Jim came along....baby sitting age.....

Not so good weekend ...My second Covd shot knocked the soup out of me....bed and hot pad feel so good....but so happy to have the second one behind me.....most of the family able to get the shots.....have,  Karrie made Sherrie an appointment.....love it when your kids take care of each other....

Mike dropped by this weekend......Thanks Mike....hope the stuff works....ready to cut off both arms I hurt so bad.....

Can't belive we are in the middle of March already.

 

THREE GENERATIONS.....

Bud Christenson...Darren Christenson.....Alex Christenson...Bud has been gone a year now an we miss him.  Darren just bought a B and B in St Thomas......and Alex's dog just had seven babies.....and life goes on.  Sherrie popped in today for a dr appointment and took Libby..Brayden and I to breakfast....this time change is still got me hanging.  Pam ran by just in time to help carry in the grocies.....with a gift for tending Bree two weeks....she had fun with Nicci.....Abig winter storm is suppose to be heading our way...not Spring yet.

 

THANK YOU GOD.....

Just a note to say 'Thank you' God for the blessings I have......for the good doctors that Scotty and Leslie have had and for getting them both back to their homes where their family and friends can help get them well again.  Of course I can't help but ask "WHY".....and I am sure you have a good reason.....which I trust you to have.  I thank you for another spring day you have given me....help do thy will.

 

MY QUILT.....

This bundle of joy is wrapped up in a quilt I made for him...all those stitches were filled with love and I never dreamed what a sweetie Mr T would turn out to be......I am working on another one with animals to put away for alex.....whenever they get a baby....total four for the great-grandkids.  I am so lucky to get to live long enough to enjoy great-grandchildren. He and his grandma Pam were on a long walk to stay out of the movers way....

 

NICC'S NEW HOUSE....

Nicci and Bill just bought a new house in Issaque, WA.....It is definitely a Nicci house......Pam went up to spend a couple of weeks with them to help with mr T....18 months old.....while they move in and get settled.....I have her dog Bree. New houses are so fun.......

 

SAD DAY......

My sweet Scotty was operated on yesterday for cancer....and starts Monday on three months chemo.....breaks my heart to go through this at 19.....and had to come home from his mission....hope we can help keep his spirits up...and help him know God will see him through it.  I can't believe he will lose that beautiful head of blond curly hair...I WILL START LOOKING FOR SOME FUN HATS....
