My Delights

My husband really spoils me!  He has done the laundry for years.  I know I get clean clothes on Monday and clean sheets on Friday.  I have really appreciated his help when I have been sick lately.  We have a lot of fun together and he is my best friend.  Today I have found JOY in sewing, sending St. Patrick's Day cards to grandsons, watching rain and snow, and finishing chores. I called a friend, made appointments, and enjoyed resting a little. Good day today!

Still here

Still hanging in there and its almost Spring!  I have had bouts with sinus infection and allergies.  I haven't got as much energy as I'd like.  BUT I am so blessed!  I have enjoyed cleaning my house and decluttering, organizing lots of household activities, and even cleaning my scrapbook room.  I need to finish sewing quilts for my daughters, make scrapbooks of photos for my children, and start getting the motorhome ready for the coming summer.  I am in the process of addressing my sleep apnea, developing a healthier diet, and trying to get a little exercise in along the way.  I guess I've been hanging in there very nicely!

Gratitude

I have really enjoyed this holiday season.  I didn't do Thanksgiving dinner here, so we went to Lori's home for dinner.  It was wonderful!  She asked me to make the stuffing and everyone else contributed to the meal too.  In the afternoon we went home and took a nap.  We went to Rose Park to share a dinner with Donna's family.  It was very interesting and delicious.
Christmas was especially satisfying this year.  We got neighbor gifts done early, cards mailed out early, decorations done early, and gifts wrapped early.  It was wonderful!  We enjoyed going to concerts with our grandchildren performing, family parties, parties with friends, watching Christmas movies and getting some relaxation time.  I am so blessed!  I am truly thankful for my family and friends that make this season so special.  I am so thankful for the birth of our Savior and his willingness to die for me.  That is the greatest gift of all.
