Happy New Year!!!! It's 2011!

Saturday. January 1, 2011.  It's raining and warm for Southern Ontario.  It is so mild that the snow is almost gone around the house. 

This is my year to re invent my life.  I am coming to the end of a year of mourning.  I still miss Leonard like a crazy woman at times, but it is getting easier to cope. It is time to move forward and really contribute to my life.  I want to thank everyone who has touched my life in one way or another this past year.  I know that my family loves and cares about me and I know that I have "adopted" family that I couldn't function without.  My goal for this year is to make a difference; in my life, in your life, wherever God leads me.  Life is a gift and I want to share this wonderful gift.

At this time, I'm planning to remain in Ontario.  I love this country.  I'm not too fond of winter, but there are ways around that! ;) I still haven't decided how to support myself, but I have a few ideas and need to "flesh" them out! 

Happy New Year!!!!!! It's 2009!

2008 was a blur. It sure has ended on an upward beat. Here's to the future...may it be filled with patience, success, laughter, less stress, good health, family and good friends. I'm ready.

Happy Birthday to MEEEE!

Today is my day and I am blowing my own horn! I'm happy and fortunate to be in good health, married to a good man, and have good friends....

I was very lazy and fell back to sleep this morning and woke to the phone ringing.... It kept ringing so I got up to answer and I heard "Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday!!!!" I was pretty foggy and didn't recognize the voice and asked who it was....? "Faye!" More nanosecond head scratching when she said she always wishes everyone happy birthday and since I wasn't at work, she had to call me at home! AWWWWW!!! Lightbulb goes on! It is Faye, one of the super dispatchers from work. Talk about warming the cockles of my little black heart!!!.... What a great way to start out the day...

The rest of the day was spent working on drying out the basement and talking to friends and family. It was a great day.

This picture is of Len and me tonight after coming home from eating fish and chips. Sure did taste good!

I truly am blessed!

Happy 53rd Birthday to me!
