My Christmas Wishes...

On a different level..

I wish every homeless person had a safe, dry, warm place to live.

I wish all the hungry people in the world had food and didn't have to worry about where their next meal was coming from.

I wish every person had a job and wasn't on unemployment benefits....or at least could GET unemployment benefits if they couldn't honestly find a job.

I wish there were no cemeteries- I wish all our loved ones were with us still.

I wish people all got along. No arguing, no name calling, no bad feelings.

I wish there was no wars.

I wish............there was Heaven on Earth.

Remembering Clay....

Happy Birthday Doo. None of our lives will ever be the same without you here, Son.

You always made us laugh. And gave us hope when we couldn't see it. And you gave the best hugs. The last time we saw each other, we didn't hug when I left- we blew air kisses to each other because you was taking a phone call, trying to help out a friend...and I was on my way home to get ready to go to work that evening. We thought we would have a lifetime of being able to give each other hugs and kisses. Who knew your young life would be ending so suddenly such a short time later. Just two short days....But I remember one particular hug, a short time before. You and Frank had come to the house and just sat and visited for a couple of hours. And when you left, we hugged and it was a particularly long and tight bear hug and you said, "I love you, Sweetie. No Matter What." There was a reason that sweet moment stuck in my mind. And now I know why.

Because on days like today, when I cry and want one of those hugs so badly, I can remember....remember your happiness and contentment with your life. And remember that you will always be with me...No Matter What.

I still have your voice-mail from your phone stored on my computer...and sometimes I just sit and listen to it..over and over and over- just to be able to hear your voice again.
I miss you so much.


Happy Birthday Baby Boy.
I Love You A Million Bazillion -cause that's the biggest number a three year old could make up.
XOXOXO.............

I'm Still Alive.....Barely.

So I'm slowly but surely recovering from my illness. Thank God.

Had some good news recently and that has made me both feel absolutely awesome- and a bit scared. I'm going to be trying something I've never done before. I'll tell ya what it is after I've done it, but I'm not ready to talk about it on here quite yet....not the time to tell the world, ya know?

Paul finally finished his NaNoWriMo deal and I've read it. It's awesome! Not at all what I thought it (as in the story) would be!!!

So I've decided to take a weeks vaca in Mid January to get some work done around the house. I haven't properly spring- cleaned since my dad passed in '05 and Clay in '07. Just haven't been in the right frame of mind to do that. Til now. And it's become a necessity recently. So I know I can't get any time off before the holidays are over- so I've decided Mid January will be the perfect time for it.

Anyway, That's all for now...Time to shoot off to work for 12 hours. Gee- that sounds like a LONG time, doesn't it? ...It usually passes quickly....Hope it does tonight, too!

I Dunno...

Oh Goody.....

Well, back from Doc Visit....Bad ear infection in Left ear-woke up this morning almost completely deaf in it ..... and a lesser infection in the right one.
Got antibiotics and (something Paul has told me on several occasions that I have up to now just took with a grain of salt) I can't wear ear-buds IN my ears anymore- close to them or around my neck-yes- IN THEM...NO.

On the upside...No permanent damage done.
I think I need to LISTEN to my husband more often from now on.

Life goes On.....

Short & Sweet.....or Sick.

I've been sick since Thursday....Coughing, stuffy head, sneezing, RAW throat, achy all over, headache and, for the first couple of days, a low grade fever.

Worked all weekend anyway, and these past two days, have been in the bed mostly, sleeping it off.

I hate being sick.
