True Confession

I've read a couple of these today and thought I'd join in. So here are my little secrets.


I love glitter and will sometime buy it just to have it.

I love snow more than anything and could be happy being snowed in for days.

I hate summer and the sun.

Even though I like vampires I have to say I'm on team Jacob.

I have been procrastinating in my crafts and I don't know why.

I fear being forgotten.

Now how about you whats your little secret.

Give Thanks

Wow can you believe Thanksgiving is just a week away. I'm thinking about all things I grateful for, at times it seems like a cop out because they are things most people say. Family, friends, home, job, faith in God. All of these things I too am grateful for. You might be surprise to find out I do know of some who claim to be thankful but aren't they live in a world that is filled with so much anger and bitterness that they don't see what wonderful gifts they have. It just brakes my heart to see these people live in a world that is filled with so much darkness. I'm grateful that my faith in God helps to keep the darkness at bay. But it can be overwhelming since I know these people. I try so hard not to get caught up in their unhappiness but it can be hard. So this holiday I'm keeping a very narrow focus my family (kids, hubby) and most important God he is what keep me going. I know that even if I don't know everything about why the darkness is here He dose. For He knows the plans He has for me a future, hope. I'm thankful for that hope that He gives me.
Until later

Happy Day

It has been a wonderful day when you live in a place that has 330 days of sun you so look forward to day like this. I just love days with clouds.

Moms

I was inspired by a Mom of other blog http://foothillhomecompanion.blogspot.com/ to write this. I enjoy reading all the blogs I follow mostly of other Moms and thier memories of their children. My children are grown and now I have a grandchild. As a Mom and now a grandma I have come to see our (Moms) role alittle different we are the memory keepers good and bad. We take the bad and throw them to the four winds and good we continue to share so that our grandkids can know them. So to all the Moms out there keep your memories, share them thats our jobs. Thank you all for sharing them with all of us out here.

Daddy

My Dad passed away today I knew it was going to happen soon my grandmother had been letting me know he was ill. My Dad was not always a nice man in fact he could be mean, hurtful, and he was an alcoholic. For all his faults he did have some good points he made me laugh he could cook like no one I have ever seen in fact he taught me. The best fudge came from his hands. He took me on my first of many things like my first date, my first corsage, my first diamond, and my first dozen roses. Our song is Daddy don't you walk so fast by Wayne Newton. I got my love of trivia from him no one was a bigger bull sh-ter than he was. Half the time I didn't know what was true and what was not. He gave me pride in who I was and the people I came from. I loved him I may not have always liked him but I did love him. So for now I will light my candle to honor him and say my prayers. I hope that he has the peace he could never find here.
