Administrative Professional's Day

We had a blast here yesterday! The Town took all of to lunch at a local Italian restaurant. We overate and laughed A LOT! My boss gave me a beautiful jewelled business card holder, a sweet dragonfly key ring and a digital photo album. That thing is great! It is similar in size to a credit card and holds 58 digital photos! Way cool!! All in all - a pretty good day! Hey - I love presents! ;)

My Poor Neglected Blog

I haven't been here much lately. It seems there has been a lot going on but not enough to report, kwim?
Dad had to have open-heart surgery which required a trip down South. Thank the Good Lord - the surgery went well and he is home recovering well. The trip down & back was uneventful and a pleasure to visit with my siblings. I also enjoyed seeing my Aunt that I hadn't seen since Dad's last open-heart surgery 12 years ago! She is just as beautiful as ever! But I sure missed the family while I was gone.
DD is doing great. Her morning sickness is finally subsiding and my grandbaby is growing nicely. Her doctor said that the baby is healthy so far. I will keep them in my prayers and ask all of you to do the same.
I have kind of been in a slump with the cardmaking but need to "get busy"! I have a minimum of 8 cards to make for the month of May!
The new living arrangements are going well! We are so enjoying having the kids at home! Family meals, family fun nights, watching movies together, getting to know them better, etc. It is all working out better than we expected. Our new son in law is quickly becoming the son we never had. Good choice DD!
We have started camping for the year. We hope to go at least once per month. Poor Odie really doesn't like camping, but he is getting better. I don't think he will ever love it, but maybe he will at least accept it.
Sadly, we still miss Boomer. I guess we always will. People at our local campground always ask for him when we go. Many campers have grown to love that old boy over the years. They are all sad when they learn of his death.
Anyway, that's a very condensed version of what has been going on in my world. I will try to keep my blog updated more regularly in the future.
Thanks for stopping by!

Not Homeless

This picture really pulled at my heart strings. It tells a myriad of stories if you have imagination!
