I am an older woman, as she was - there was only a year between us - and when I first attended funerals everyone dressed in black because it was a time of mourning. However, it is not a time of mourning but, rather, a time of celebrating her life. I'm going to bring it a bit brighter and happier today, as she would want it.
I've really been struggling this month and sitting in a heap. Mister has decided that some fresh air will help and we are off to the lake to find a smile for a bit. As we arrive, the lake is oh so busy and the pelicans are out in full force. Come along and enjoy the moment with us. I've got a few surprises as well.
This newest grandson makes #18 for me. Wow --- what a troop I've got. Each one is such a blessing and I'm eager to put the newest member into my arms AND spend time with his older siblings. The last time we were together was in June at the family reunion. Ahhhh, bring it on and let the hugs begin. I'm ready.
Just look at these beautiful snow-covered mountains. THIS is another thing I miss looking at. I am not to the point of missing the cold it brings along.
Happy New Year!!!
2022 has arrived and I laid in bed quietly watching the downtown fireworks show coming from Reunon Tower. I can hear the show, even as far away as I am. Enjoy the pics.
