It just keeps getting better!

One Summer, Two weddings! 
Christina and Mike are getting married in June.  Bobby and Kristen are getting married in August.  Life is just getting better and better.  I think we have a handle on Christina's wedding.  We have a bit of planning to do but we have gotten a lot of it done so all is good.  I can't wait for it all to fall together.  I need to get back on my diet plan so that I can wear a cute dress.  Tomorrow, I'm back on the bus.

Hello!  I can't believe that Thanksgiving is in 3 days.  This fall has gone by so quickly.  It looks like now that things will slow down a little bit for me.  Believe me, I'm not complaining.  I have had a wonderful fall.  I've been too busy to do much of anything but work but I have the best job so it's really been great!  I think December will be kind of easier in many ways but everything will crank up again after the first of the year. 

For all that I have been through in my life I have to say that things have really come my way.  I'm truly thankful for all the blessings in my life. 

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Life is good!

Hi!  I know it's been awhile.  My live has changed in so many ways over the past 2 months. 
1) We sold and bought a new home. 
2) I got a new job.
3) I began my term as president of Executive Club.  It's been such a good time. 
Oh, did I tell you that the is the coziest home that I have ever lived in?  We're still getting settled.  We basically gutted the basement and it's finally taking shape.  And did I tell you that this is my dream job?  I feel very fortunate.  Did I tell you that it is a great honor and privilege to be president of this terrific club?  I've been working hard to take care of myself because of all these life changes.  Anyway, life is very, very good.  I'm blessed.

Fam...

We had a lovely wedding last weekend. My nephew, Greg and the lovely Stephanie got married last weekend. It was a beautiful day. I had a good time but I didn't get to take as many pictures as I usually do or talk to as many people as I usually do. Here is a picture of me and my siblings. It's really kind of amazing that we have this picture. Some days I think this will be the last time that we are all together. I'm sure that sounds ominous but financially this could really be the case. Anyway I'm glad that we are all getting along now, it's been a long haul.

Life is Good!

Bella is sitting with me right now. She's doing just great after having her teeth pulled. I could not be more proud of her and her recovery. She took most of her medicine and I have spotted her eating hard cat food again. :) She's just so presh. I would take 5 of her if I could! She had to take the wrath of her sister Lola who, by the way, was a total and complete yachy...she hissed at Bella for days. Thankfully things are better.

Things are going good at work. The days are so productive. I can't wait to begin this campaign and make plans for a fall trip. I'm a little bummed that there is no trip planned. It always gives me something to look forward to. We'll probably have to wait until October. I'm good with that.

Not much else is new...my previous disappointment may have been premature. But I'm still focusing on the positive.

Bellz

My little Bella had two teeth extracted yesterday. I think she's mad at me and in a bit of pain as well.

Get well soon sweet Bella!

I'm headed up to give her a kiss now. :)

Family Reunion

We just got back from a family reunion. I have never felt as much love in my life as I did in the rooms that we shared at our reunion. I know that Mom, Dad, W.C. and Dot were smiling down on us the whole weekend. :) I share them all with you! :)

Quotation: A good way to love our relatives is to spend time with together in well planned family reunions. A family reunion can be a very personal and priveledged gathering. If you have never organized your family for a reunion, start now-you will receive joy far beyond your expectations. ~Alma Heaton
