The Good. The Bad . The Ugly. 2008
The Good
- healthy grandson added to the family!
- another year of okay health.
- stayed in touch with brother L more so than ever
- won over the "red circle" of job position!
-found I really don't suck at golf!
The Bad
- heart monitor in February, yeash!
-Dad passed away in March
-Tracy killed in car accident in April
- Cheri passed away suddenly in August
- job issues arise.
- hubby has some "muscular" issues
The Ugly
-nothing is "ugly"....just challenging! Finding the positive in every day can be difficult, but if you try.....you will find it. It's there...sometimes hidden under a lot of ugly...but it's still there. I have been told I have a "pollyanna" attitude - finding a silver lining in the dark cloud so to speak...I dunno if that is true....but to keep yourself above the whirlpool of despair you have to do something ......or you just get sucked into the muck. I refuse to get sucked into the muck! if that means I have a pollanan attitude..so be it.

Hello beautiful! You inspire me:) If your attitude is ' pollyanna' then I think we could all use to have more of that!
I have struggled with stress and needing to take care of everybody and pleasing everybody a fair bit in the last year - and I'm learning that we have to know ourselves, care for our souls and have gratitude - and that doing that (yes, self care even) is an act of worship:)
Thanks for your sweet comment on my little creations - paper crafting is a diversion for me to help me make time to create because it's good for my soul, it's a good way to care for others, and it's a good way to make some time for me:) Me create a book?!... I dunno, so many of my ideas are inspired by others...but maybe that, in itself could be an idea:) Thanks for your sweetness!!
