Hope I make it okay! in Just me!
On Saturday morning my daughter and I will take a memorial stair climb to honor victims of 9/11. It is held every year. I have not done it before, and I hope I can deal with all the steps. You ta...
What a tangled web... in Just me!
I’ve written about a few people making my life miserable, so much so that I left my job at the church. I was feeling sad, because I just heard they hired my replacement. Well, I really shouldn’t ...
Feeling crushed in Just me!
I still receive the email version of the newsletter from the church where I worked and belonged. It hinted at an announcement about the youth and children’s position coming in the next week. It m...
Yeah, Baby!! in Just me!
Yes, it's finally getting to be the weekend! I have some fun plans. My sorority is hosting a musical performance by young violinists on Sat., and then I have a bridal shower and spa open house on...
I know. I'm a slacker. in Just me!
I've been really slack about posting, but I've been just really worn out lately. It's time for the grandchildren to go back to sleep. They're wearing me down! grins
Time for a new me. in Just me!
Crikeys! I looked at the pictures from our recent weekend visit with my family. Well, that was not a happy experience! Starting tomorrow morning, I NEED to get myself in better shape!
Saw my doctor. I have deltoid bursitis in my arm. It supposedly might take several weeks for it to heal. All the medication makes me sleepy and makes me nauseous. Lovely!
Wow. We had such a great time at the beach with the kids. Fabulous! The only fly in the ointment is my left arm. It's hurting so BAD. My shoulder, too. I feel like I may have a rotator cuff injur...
Let the good times begin! in Just me!
We are leaving for the beach tomorrow, and I can't wait!! We're going with our daughter, her husband, and the grandchildren. I'm smiling already!
Another step in Just me!
Last night I took another step forward to becoming fully a part of our new church. I joined the choir! I love to sing, and it's an important part of my church life. The new choir (as is the churc...
Very bad day in Just me!
It's hard to describe all the events involved. Just suffice it to say I had a terrible day. I'm sitting in my nightgown, and right now I don't care if I ever leave this house again. People make m...
Wonderful week! in Just me!
I have been away this past week on a mission trip. I met with youth and adults from churches from all over to go out each day and help people with home repairs, household tasks and yard work. We ...
New jewelry in Just me!
About a week ago I lost the diamond out of my engagement ring. We've looked everywhere we can think of, but it must have dropped out when I running errands somewhere. So, Bill gave me a new ring ...
Fun weekend! in Just me!
So we took Andrew camping for his birthday trip (each kid gets to pick what they want to do). We had so much fun! He's just a great camper! We loved sleeping in the tent, cooking in the cast iron...
Fun With Andrew! in Just me!
I'm really looking forward to this weekend. We're leaving in the morning to take our grandson Andrew camping. We take each grandchild away for a weekend for their birthdays. It's Andrew's turn, a...
Performance in Just me!
We went to the school tonight to enjoy a concert put on by Owen's level. He's 11, and it was fun to see the kids rocking out and starting to look more grown. Owen's really into music now. I love ...
It's amazing to me. I've had insomnia for many years, and it's been terrifically bad lately. Most likely the unsettled feeling I've had since leaving the job and the church. Anyway, I slept 7 hou...
So I had a colonoscopy today. As a colon cancer survivor, I have to have them periodically, but this was an extra. I've been having some funky symptoms. Well, the prep was the pits, as usual, but...
The Beach! in Just me!
We're at the beach for the weekend with my parents and my siblings and their spouses. This was a Christmas present from my parents. So much fun!
Why are people mean? in Just me!
So I found out this evening that another person at our former church said something ugly about me. I can't figure out what I did that made people be that way. There are so many who still contact ...
Grandparents Day! in Just me!
Tomorrow is Grandparents Day at our grandchildren's school. It's always a wonderful time! Can't wait to visit in their classrooms and hear them sing at the breakfast the school will provide. And ...
Let me explain. in Just me!
I need to clarify something. I didn't WANT to quit my job. I felt like I had to, because there were people going behind my back saying things. They were making me miserable. I LOVED working with ...
Getting anxious in Just me!
Oh, anxiety is my middle name tonight! Tomorrow will be my last day at a job I have loved at my church. I've been the youth and children's coordinator, and it's been such a joy. Well, at least be...
Decisions, decisions... in Just me!
So I'm thinking really hard about quitting my job. Since I work at our church, that means we will also be quitting our church. I love the job mostly, but there are people who criticize no matter ...
Love you long time! in Just me!
Today was our 38th anniversary. I am still trying to feel better from the bronchitis, so it was kind of a quiet night. We did go to our favorite restaurant and have a lovely dinner, though! I'm s...
