I Know What It Needs!!!

I made chicken salad a couple of days ago, and for the life of me, it just didn't taste the same. I messed with it for quite some time, before I realized that it needed company!

By company, I mean it needed to be shared with a friend, one who has lots of fun memories of kids playing together while we scarfed down chicken salad and Sociable crackers!

Whaddya say MB? Thanksgiving time, you, me, chicken salad? I'll even have Coke on hand!

Oh, and the salad did end up needing more salt, pepper and ranch dressing. :)

It's been a while...

Wow, I have really let this go, and I didn't mean too. Life has a funny way of getting in the way of things I mean to do. Not much has changed, my days are still too long, and I feel, some days, like I'm drowning. Other days, I can see that I have a lot to be thankful for... Family and friends are way up on the list.
Since there is no way to catch up with what has gone on in the last several months, I think I'll just make a promise to myself that I'll keep this up better. Who knows, maybe someone other than myself will read it. :)

I Think I'm Grateful...

I think I'm grateful for the warmer weather, but once the snow melted in the backyard, and I saw all the weeds we need to take care of, I'm wishing it was winter again. At least the snow hid the weeds.

On the upside, I am glad that John doesn't have cancer, that his prostatitis is slowly going away, and that the Urologist thinks he may have solved some of the problems John has been having. We'll know more next month.

It's Been Tough

Wow, hard to believe that it's been a month (or more) since I even looked at this site! Of course, it's been a tough month. We had a cancer scare with John, I was sick with bronchitis for 2 weeks and now Whitney has it. I used to ask if it could get any worse, but I know from experience, that it can.

Hopefully I can keep up with this a little better.. at least I'l try.

My Moment of Gratitude

I've decided for my one and only New Year's resolution to try and find something (even if it's only once a week) to be grateful for. I've decided it can be anything, as long as I am truly grateful for it.

So for this week, I'm grateful for warmer weather. Not because there hasn't been any snow, but because it has allowed me to finally clear off the 4 inches of ice on my driveway. That was a chore, but I'm grateful that it's done.

So there, I'm good for a couple of days or weeks, two moments of gratitude.


Whew! I'm grateful for that!
