I LIKE ME.....AND COULD CARE LESS WHO ELSE DOES.....SOME OF MY KIDS DO...SOME DON'T.....SOME FRIENDS DO.....SOME DON'T....BUT MY X AND I HAVE BECOME FRIENDS AND THAT IS HUGE FOR THE FAMILY.....SO I AM IN "HAPPY LAND".  WE HAVE A BEAUTIFUL FALL DAY .....KEN AND SHERRIE CAME BY AND BROUGHT LUNCH.....COVERED THE PATIO FUNITURE.....CHANGED MY BED.....I SO LOVE HAVING MY KIDS COME BY......OR CALLING ME.......JUST TO SEE THEM....NOT TO MAKE MY WORK FOR ME........

NEW ROOM MATES......

     

WELL THE KIDS MOVED IN TODAY AND WE HAVE STUFF EVERY WHERE.....I AM SO EXCITED TO HAVE ROOM MATES........I SIT HERE AND WATCH LIBBY COOK DINNER....AND SHE SAID SHE LOVED TO COOK...YEA!!!!

THE WEATHER IS  SUNNY BUT COLD....WENT TO WALMART AND DID A LITTLE SHOPPING....CHRISTMAS STUFF AND A NEW FURNACE FILTER.....AND  OH SOME LIGHT BULBS......CALLED MY SISTER ......BUT SHE WAS OUT......WORRY ABOUT HER KNEE.......

I DID START MY PILLS TODAY FOR CANCER.......AND HOPE NONE OF THE SIDE AFFECTS LISTED AFFECT ME....HOT FLASHES.....NASEAU.....HEADACHES....VERTIGO ETC.....KARRIE'S PILLS HAVE MADE HER KNEES SWELL AND ARE SO SORE!!!!! THE FUN OF GETTING OLD........AND GETTING CANCER.

BEAUTIFUL FALL.......

SUCH A PRETTY TIME OF YEAR.......

EVERY WHERE THE TREES ARE TURNING RED, ORANGE AND YELLOW......LAST NIGHT WAS 27 DEGREES.....THAT IS COLD! SNOW FORECAST FOR NEXT WEEKEND. WENT TO PATTY'S FOR COFFEE YESTERDAY AND SHE AND I RAN UP TO JOAN'S THEN HAD LUNCH TODAY......FUN FRIEND.  

I WENT TO THE DR WEDNESDAY.....KARRIE AND PAM TOOK ME AND WE MADE THE DECISION....NO RADIATION....JUST THE HARMON PILL....WITH ALL IT'S WEIRD "SIDE AFFECTS".....THE ONE KARRIE IS TAKING FOR HER CANCER IS MAKING HER KNEES SWELL AND SHE IS MISERABLE....I CAN SEE....CANCER IS NOT FUN???  WE WILL SEE WHAT THIS ONE THEY GAVE ME DOES.....TO BUG ME.

BRAYDEN AND LIBBY HAVE BEEN MOVING IN AND GUESS TOMORROW WILL BE THE BIG MOVE IN DAY.  BRAYDEN STARTS A NEW JOB IN A WEEK UP AT PARK CITY WORKING ON MAINTENANCE OF THE LIFTS....SNOW EQUIPMENT ETC.....HE IS VERY EXCITED.  I AM HAPPY TO HAVE THEM TO HELP THEM SAVE MONEY AND BE HERE FOR ME.

WEEKS COME AND WEEKS GO.......

THIS IS MY SECOND GRANDCHILD AND SHE JUST HAD A BIRTHDAY AND A WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.....THIS MONTH......AND A NEW BABY IN AUGUST......SHE NEVER CEASES TO AMAZE ME......SO HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICCI....YOU CUTE THING.....

QUIET WEEKEND......

PATTY OVER FOR COFFEE THIS WEEKEND AND GAVE ME THE LOW DOWN ON HER GRANDDAUGHTER'S WEDDING IN SEATTLE LAST WEEKEND....WEDDINGS ARE WEDDINGS FOR EVERYONE.  AND NICE TO GO TO......AND BETTER TO GET HOME.

TOMORROW NIGHT A YEARLY CONDO MEETING....NEED TO GO AND SEE IF WE CAN GET RID OF ...."WENDY"!

THEN WEDNESDAY......A DOCTOR APPOINTMENT TO SEE IF ......IT IS RADIATION ...A PILL FOR FIVE YEARS.......OR BOTH LIKE KARRIE. THINGS SEEM TO BE HEALING GOOD.

NOW OFF TO WATCH.....DANCING WITH THE STARS...

I AM TRYING......

I WAS JUST THINKING?????? SOMETIMES I DO!

WHEN I GET IN MY CAR AND HEAD OUT EACH DAY.....I TRUST THE PEOPLE ON THE ROAD....IF THERE IS A RED LIGHT.......THEY STOP......IF THERE IS A CAR SIGNALING RIGHT OR LEFT......THEY MEAN IT....THIS MEANS I HAVE FAITH IN PEOPLE TO KEEP THE RULES OF THE ROAD....FAITH IS LEARNED.....

WHEN YOU THROW A BABY IN  THE AIR....THEY LAUGH BECAUSE THEY KNOW YOU WILL CATCH THEM.....THAT IS TRUST....

EVERY NIGHT WE GO TO BED WITHOUT ASSURANCE OF BEING ALIVE THE NEXT MORNING...BUT WE SET OUR ALARM TO WAKE US UP/.....THAT IS HOPE...

WE PLAN BIG THINGS FOR TOMORROW IN SPITE OF ZERO KNOWLDGE OF THE FUTURE......THAT IS CONFIDENCE.....

WE SEE THE WORLD SUFFERING, BUT STILL WE GET MARRIED AND HAVE CHILDREN......THAT IS LOVE.

ON AN OLD MAN'S SHIRT WAS WRITTEN......I AM NOT 80 YEARS OLD...."I AM SWEET 16 WITH 74 YEARS EXPERIENCE'.......THAT IS ATTITUDE......

IT IS CALLED ...."LIVING AND LEARNING"

AND AT MY AGE.....I JUST SAY."THANK YOU GOD FOR EVERY DAY"......

.

FALL CONFERENCE......

HERE I AM TALKING ABOUT MY MORNIING COFFEE AND WE ARE IN THE FIRST DAY OF OUR CHURCH CONFERENCE.....IN WHICH IT IS A NO-NO TO DRINK COFFEE.......IF IT WERE NOT FOR TOAST AND COFFEE EVERY  MORNING .....I PROBABLY WOULD NOT GET UP TILL LUNCH TIME.....IN OLD AGE YOU DO NOT HAVE A BUSY SCHEDULE OR ANY THING TO DO ALL DAY....OTHER THAN A FEW DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS.........SO YOU SLEEP!!!!

THIS MORNING PATTY CAME OVER.....YES, FOR COFFEE...EVEN BROUGHT THE DOUGHNUTS! I WATCHED CONVERENCE IN BETWEEN PATTY AND WORKING IN THE BASEMENT......THE KIDS WILL BE MOVING IN SOON.....I AM HAPPY TO GET THE BASEMENT CLEANED OUT......4 1/2 YEARS AGO WHEN I MOVED IN IT WAS JUST EMPTY THE BOXES WHERE EVER YOU CAN FIND SOME WHERE TO PUT STUFF....COME ON...... I RAN ACROSS THE "TAP SHOES"......I HAD FROM THE YEAR I LIVED IN DENVER AND WAS 19 0R 20?????  OK....OK. ...SICK?    WENT THROUGH AND GOT RID OF ALL THE SIZE 12'S IN THE CLOSET...THOSE DAYS ARE GONE FOREVER.....WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING AT 88.....IT IS NICE TO HAVE SOMEONE AROUND TO KEEP YOU GOING......HOW DID I COLLECT SO MUCH "STUFF" IN THE LAST 63 YEARS?
