Thoughts for a quiet Sunday

As a little girl there was no one more important to me than my grandparents. I loved them both so much. I spent a lot of time with them especially after my little brother was diagnosed with cancer and then after my parents got divorced my brother and I spent time not only during the […]

Loves of my life

I’m 26 days away from cuddling this little Nugget again and hugging my son and his fiancee’. And it’s 28 days until she is his wife. It’s an exciting and yet stressful time because I’m not there to help. I’m not there to babysit while she goes and does wedding stuff. I’m not there to […]

Simple Things

I had a breakfast meeting this morning which was a continuation of a full day meeting yesterday and at both of the meetings we all shared a meal together. It is always amazing to me how a meal can bring people together no matter how simple it is. During lunch yesterday we went to a […]

Around the corner

NOTE: I started this post in late August. How fast the last 5 months have gone.♥ It was a long and busy summer. I didn’t get a chance to post much as I was wrapped up in work and the long, warm days like everyone else. But as the days become shorter every day, the […]

Choices

There have been a lot of changes in the last few months and as usual life moves much faster that I could ever imagine. My son and his girlfriend of 7 years gave birth to their first child, a much anticipated baby girl, in October. I didn’t really think I could love any one human […]

My happiness

My husband has always told me I have a beautiful smile. Maybe he doesn’t realize that he is the one who makes me smile that way. On Saturday he wanted “my help” to set up and test his broadcast gear for the upcoming University of Montana football broadcasts. Let me tell you, he didn’t need […]

Simple things

At times I think some of the best things in my life are the simple and easy things. At other times I feel jealous of what someone else has or what car they drive. I’ve been trying to be appreciative of the simple things in my life lately. Things like the fact that I live […]

Frustration…

How do you deal with being frustrated? I probably don’t deal with it the best way, I tend to hold everything in and get short in my answers. Again this is one of those situations where it is probably better to go straight to the person and put everything out there but I don’t think […]

Why write?

A friend asked me the other day why I had a blog. Why did I write something and then put it out in public? I thought a minute or two before I answered him and when I finally answered it was two short replies, one simple and one sassy. The simple answer was why not […]
