Hello everybody,
Fall is here,Fall is here, Fall is here, Fall is here!!! I have been going
around saying this mantra over and over...finally the heat wave is gone,
gone, gone....and the air is cool, the smell crisp, and leaves are falling!!
Can you tell this has lifted my spirits? Just a tad ladies, just a tad!
Fall is my ABSOLUTE F-A-V-O-R-I-T-E time of the year!
It must thin my blood just enough to carry more oxygen to my brain and I
literally feel giddy from the experience. Whatever happens, I am more
energized in the Fall and get much more accomplished. Ok by me, I have lots
and lots to do!
My son and his wife are still squabbling, and I have had to do some serious
thinking about the possibility that I may wind up raising my grandson. I am
not rushing into anything...hopefully the two of them will get a clue and
take responsibility for the child...but I am preparing myself for this
possibility.
My own partnership is still somewhat clouded. But at least my partner has
decided to go to counseling and that seems to be helping her some. I am
taking one day at a time and making the best of that day. Nothing is
promised us in this life and I am not going to presume to make plans for my
"life"...I have begun the process of trying to get my Social Security
disability taken care of so that I can support myself if need arises. The
prosepect of being alone is not as devastating as it has been in the past
because I am more mature, and life is full of good things each day with or
without a partner. I still love mine very much, but I recognize things can
change and often do.
So, my point being, all is well with my soul.
Have missed hearing from all of you...but imagine you have been as busy as I
have been and taking time for yourselves...a good thing...and will be back
when you can..something for me to look forward to! I wonder what all of you
are doing and how you are? Hoping all of you are well and having good things
happening to you. We are blessed to have such a good list manager and we
need to pick up the slack a bit I think!
Read the latest Harry Potter book and loved it as much as the others! My
niece and I are both Harry Potter fans. Can you believe, it is a top listed
book to be banned from libraries!!!! A librarian friend of mine told me
this recently. What is wrong with people today? I sincerely hope we are not
going to be faced with a line drawn in the sand as either "for" or
"Against"
God/Jesus!!!! Their is so much spirituality out there that is not Christian
centered but just as positive and uplifting to ones soul...I hope we are not
going to be faced with some hyper-christian crusade thing that becomes nasty
and scary!! Anyway, I don't mind saying I loved the Harry Potter books and I
do not see them as dangerous or appalling or "cultist" in any way!
Hope to hear from all or any of you again real soon! You guys are just
delightful folks to chat with and to know...so, someone give us a holler!
