    Oh, I am moving slow today.  Yesterday, we went full blast all day!!  We are going to the later church service today. I had thoughts this morning of my Husband but they were happy thoughts.  I need to contact my lawyer this week to get the condo issue taken care of.  I feel like that is the only negative thing hanging over me.  Two women who live in the condo community have asked me to go to dinner with them soon.  I know one real well but not the other one.  I didn’t hesitate and said yes.  I need to put myself out there more as I would like my circle of friends to be larger.  Being married for so many years, I didn’t pursue a lot of friendships as he and I were together most of the time.  So, at 55 years old, I am trying to make new friends and adventures.  My old life is gone as I know it and it’s time to reinvent my life being alone.  Exciting and scary at *****.  What’s that saying?  Life is what you make it!!Seize all the good things in life

    Yes Carole, way too much eating!!  LOL!!!  I feel for Kevin and his family.  I had a awesome day with my Grandson. We went to the butterfly exhibit, the largest one in America.  It was awesome!   I had a big butterfly on my head for the longest time.  Finally, I asked a worker there to remove it.  We went to Walmart afterwards to get my Grandson some new school clothes as he has outgrown everything.  I also bought a toy organizer for his room here.  We came home and went swimming with all the kids who live here.  A busy day!!!  We are going to meet my Daughter in the morning at church.  Afterwards, she is going to show me their new apartment and my Grandson’s new school.  We plan to go for lunch also.  My Grandson has been stuck to me all day.  He missed me a lot when I was in Canada. I feel the same!! No thoughts of gambling for me!!!Seize all the good things in life

    I am leaving early tomorrow morning for home.  I have had a wonderful time with Carole.  She took me to Banff, we rode the gondola, Lake Louise was breathtaking, and we were on top a of glacier at the Columbia Icefields. The hotel we stayed at had a beautiful cave grotto hot pool, so relaxing. We had fun shopping and doing a lot of eating. I miss my Grandson and he started 2nd grade today. I am sure he will have a lot of things to tell me about his day!!   Seize all the good things in life

    Leaving for Canada tomorrow, yeah!!  I had a peaceful day.  I had lunch with a friend who always has great stories to tell.  She is 80 years old and a fire cracker!!!  She is one of the most interesting people I have ever known.  I love to hear her stories about adventures she has experienced.  Her Mom lived to be 104 years old and was a live wire too!!!  Good genes!  I think I am progressing in my grieving for my Husband.  I seem to be coming out of the fog and thinking clearer.  I get sad but it isn’t taking over my life.  I just need to figure out what I want to do with my life now that I am alone.  I have had gambling urges here and there, but I haven’t acted upon them. Seize all the good things in life

    Thanks Carole for your post.  I slept ok as I had to get up early for my cardiologist appointment.  All is well and I don’t have to go back for 1 year.  I have to have some blood work done in the morning and then I am going to my Mom’s for the weekend.  It is a little cooler there! Seize all the good things in life

    I am a happy woman this evening as I was able to talk to my Grandson on the phone via my Ex-Son-In-Law.  He is leaving to go to Disneyland on Friday (his first time) and he is so excited.  He told me he would come over after his trip to tell me all about it.  I will be able to sleep well tonight.Seize all the good things in life
