Well - Hard to believe that 34 years ago I was just getting myself ready for my wedding. My - time really has a way of flying by doesn't it?
So much has happened over the past years. Births, deaths, baptisms, graduations, weddings. The family keeps growing as does my love for every member.
Milestones this year - was just thinking yesterday that my baby sister, Melodie is going to be reaching a real milestone this year. So is LeRoy. MY - hard to believe for both of them.
So much to be thankful for - a roof over my head (which is REALLY LOUD right now as the roofers are here working on taking the old shingles, etc off and will then be putting new ones on. I hope we mad the right decision on the color that we chose to have put on today. We will see I guess.
Thankful for my amazing family - wow how lucky am I to have the family that I have? Such support and friendship. I am blessed.
Sounds like Jenna and Rob are busy as usual with their home, family and business. Want to check them out? Go to http://www.grumannps.com/. You will be able to see pictures of the family, of the horses, of their place. Lots of info about their business too.
Tara, Bob and boys are busy as usual. Can't believe the school year is almost over for Devin. He is getting so big. Won't be long and he will be as tall as I am. He turned 8 in April. Lucas will be starting kindergarten in the fall. That will be an adjustment for everyone. He has been going to preschool 3 mornings a week this year and loves it. Imagine - both of the boys in school all day next year. WOW. Wonder what "grandpa daycare" will do with his time then!!
I was moved in to a different location at work a couple of months ago - I haven't been to happy about it, trying to make "do" and to make things work. I have so little space to do my work, and absolutely no privacy at all. I am not so concerned about my lack of privacy for myself - but - with the work I do, there are confidentiality issues for our clients and I really feel that there is a big problem with that. I have addressed my concerns to my supervisor and to the fiscal director at the center and that is where I have to let it go I guess. I keep telling myself that if I go to work with a positive attitude and be kind, friendly, smiling, etc it will make things better and eventually I will be OK with the change. So far that hasn't happened. SOO - what to do? I am looking at other employment options. So far nothing has come my way - but - I will continue to search I guess.
I have also been doctoring for a hip and back problem that has returned. (actually the hip problem is new - the back problem has been around for over 25 years). I am actually doing better than I have been in a while - however, it still has a ways to go I guess. I ordered custom made orthotics for my shoes that seems to be helping with the hip issue. I am thinking it took a LONG time for it to get as bad as it is - will probably take a long time to get better, right?
I am not sure of our plans for today. Lee is golfing right now (I am listening to the roofers). I am thinking we will do some exciting things like go to the grocery store, to Sam's Club, and probably to PetSmart (maybe venture to the Dollar Tree too - love that store!!!). I think we will go out to eat this evening. Not sure where yet - but - maybe the Olive Garden or Carino's would be nice. Will have to see.
Well, enough of my ramblings for one day. Would love to hear from everyone.
