Where to begin.....

Life has been wonderfully busy for the past several months. To tell you the truth, I kind of forgot about blogging really.

We just got home from a wonderful trip back to John's childhood home, Stewartville Minnesota. I grew up in California and we moved a lot! I don't have any real roots and I have no place that I refer to as "home", so going back to Stewartville is always a special treat for me. I refer to it as "My Mayberry".

I love it there! I love that no matter how long it has been since our last visit, when we all get together, the time and distance melts away and it is as if we were never gone.

I wrote a short story about the place several years ago, as a gift to my mother and father in-law. Maybe I will share it here someday.

Random thought.......... there are only 51 shopping days left until Christmas!
I think I will leave you with that. HA!

Where have I been?

Time keeps on slippin' slippin' slippin' into the future..............

I can hardly believe that winter is nearly behind us. It is the time of year that I dislike the most. I dont dislike all of the elements of winter. I mean, I love to celebrate Christmas and Our Lord's Birth. I love to storm watch. I love to spend lazy rainy Saturday afternoons cuddled up with a good book, but as a whole, I dislike how long winter seems to hang around and I dislike the lack of sunshine and warmth.

Im excited that we get to change the clocks this weekend because it marks the beginning of the end of WINTER! yeah!!

May God Bless you and keep you. Happy almost SPRING!
