My How Time Flies

Well, as usual, it has been a long time since I came to this blogsite. Shame on me. I really do want to be a "blogger", but guess I just have yet to make it a habit. Maybe I can do better, since I do have the time to actually get on here now and be a little more regular. My job does have some nice perks, for the most.
Since the last post too much has happened to try and catch it all up on here, so guess I will just say what is on my mind or post the most recent happenings.
For starters, I am recovering once again from a health issue/set back, seems that the current stresses and pressures have caused my body to once again reach it's limitations and I had to spend a few days hospitalized. Thankfully nothing major was allowed to progress.
Now I am in the middle of moving out of the shop building that we have occuppied for the last 2 years, again, and this time will probably be the last for a long time. These 2 years have been a complete nightmare with expenses of trying to maintain a building in HOPES of getting a business up and running, and each time I thought it was going to work something else would set us back and basically knock us completely off of our feet. If I ever go back into a business, it will probably be after Dale has retired and we can work it together as an extra income. I do have some hopes and ideas, but we shall see.
Right now my main focus is to just get us caught up on things and try and work on getting out of some of the debt that has us so bound up. Lord have mercy!!!
I am hoping to be a little more successful in my efforts of getting more healthy and shedding some pounds, but truthfully it is quite a challenge when you are so depressed all the time. Somehow I must overcome it and find a way to stay above it. I am looking forward to getting back into an old way of relieving my stress, and that is crafting. I enjoy it so, and hopefully I will be able to create some peices to sell that will bring in a little extra financial help. I am also thinking of creating a whole seperate blogspot area for that, eventually.
My favorite season is upon us, and I plan to enjoy it all I possibly can! FALL!

Happy 70th Birthday to my Daddy

Today is my daddy's 70th birthday!
I was trying to upload a picture, but it kept posting it sideways, and not upright like it needed to be.
Anyways, I just wanted to blog about that today, and am wishing him a great day!
We had a surprise celebrtion for him last weekend, but today is his big day!

April Already!

April is here already, and as you can plainly see I have not been a good blogger. I want to, plan to, need to, and hopefully will become much better at blogging as I do honestly feel it would be good therapy.
Presently, I am consumed with the upcoming graduation of my baby girl, and I want so much to be able to do her justice with a grand reception to give honor for all of her accomplishments.
With the health conditions that I suffer with, at times just getting out of the bed is a challenge, but with God's help and a lot of willpower, I move on.
The season upon us is Spring, however it did snow here yesterday, but is to be 70 today. Oh the joys of the Texas Panhandle weather!
I don't think there are very many who even see this blog, but if anyone should happen to read this, I hope you have a wonderful Spring. Your comments would be appreciated, just so I could know if anyone actually even gets this page.
Happy Spring!

January 2013

Well, here it is almost the end of the month, and I still have yet to post in my blog for the first time this year. I can say that it has been a very busy month, as I began a new job on the 3rd. One I had wanted, and the Lord made it happen. Today, the 29th, I am at home resting, after a very frightful weekend. On Saturday, I was very sick, and feel certain that I suffered yet another heart attack. After a ride in the ambulance and some long hours in the ER, I was released to come home, oh the joys of the insurance not yet being in affect. So I have been resting, and getting ready to return to work tomorrow. I feel blessed to still have life, and pray that I can just continue to gain strength and better health. I know that God is in control.
