19 and counting!

Yep! I have all of 19 friends on facebook right now. I feel so loved!!! :) Since facebook is really suppose to be for the "younger" crowd, I did set my limits. If I see someone I know on that is of my generation or close to it, I will request friendship, but if they are around my kids ages, they will have to request from me. Anyway, I have found a few people that I haven't talked to in years. It's really been great! I look forward to finding others.

My new hook...Facebook!!

Yes, I've gone and joined Facebook. I haven't told Danny yet. He thinks I'm on the computer too much already...so...MUMS THE WORD... LOL!!! :) Like he cares!!!!!! So, if you belong, you can be my friend, if you want to.

Think about it (those of you my age)...our lives were quite boring compared to today, but, we sure thought it was exciting!!!! I guess it was compared to our parent's youth. My, my, how times change.

Have a great week!!!!!

TGIF!

Wow! I am so glad it's Friday. For only having school 4 days this week, it sure has been a looooong week. Nothing major happened, so I don't know why it seemed so long. Maybe because I actually had some time and I wasn't meeting myself coming and going.

Oh well! That will end soon. This is my last free weekend (sleeping late on Sat.) before golf starts up again, then we'll be doing double time. Between Arrowhead and school golf, we're fixing to roll! I just hope Brandt doesn't burn himself out. And as for the cold weather...bring it on. We bought a cover for the golf cart so we don't freeze anymore. I hear there is a heater available too. We just might need to invest :) I feel a little guilty though, knowing Brandt is out there freezing. I'm sure that feeling won't last long.

The article about Brandt in the paper Tee to Green will be coming out sometime in Feb. If they post it on the website I'll attach a link, but if not, I'll try to scan it for those interested.

A Year Ago Today!

A year ago today, my precious mother went to be with the Lord. While I remember every minute of that day and how difficult this year has been without her, the Lord made me realize how blessed we were to have those precious last days with her. We had time to talk. We had time to say "I love you". We had time to say "thank you". There are no regrets. No, "I wish I would have done...", I wish I could have told her...". Nothing was left unsaid. For this, I am grateful.

Overwhelmed with Memories


Memories have been flooding back. These next 2 weeks will be a lot of "a year ago today". A year ago today, Anne and I began our 24 hour a day vigilance next to Momma's bedside.

A year ago today, I was called home from school because Momma had taken a turn for the worst. This was the day she talked to each of us and told us how much she loved us along with many more special things. She also shared with us her glimpses of Heaven. God allowed her to see parts of heaven before he took her home. He let her see her 2 babies that she lost. One she miscarried at about 3 months gestation and Steven, my little brother, who passed away just hours after birth. She was so excited to see those babies.

I thank God for that special day and will never forget it. We were blessed to have that time with her. Many never get that time. Although it was difficult to see her go down so fast, I will forever cherish it.

I love you Momma and miss you so so so much!
