take one picture everyday

This is how I comforted myself.

I love these things…I wish I would have invented them…they make really good chip clip holders too

O.k. this is kind of cheating since I edited a picture I already had…but I liked it and wanted to post it….My game..my rules

Outside of the Raleigh Art Gallery…disappointed I couldn’t take the kids to see the Rembrant exibit.;(

If you look really close there is a woman standing in the field. I feel like this woman a lot.

O.K..I have got to start eating better!!! It doesn’t matter if it has 7 vitamins and minerals…it is still BAD!!! I just need to plan better!

O.k. I have to let my daughter make her own decisions…even if I think she is crazy….LET IT GO

Oh Christmas tree…oh Chrismas tree…Every year I dread undecorating the Chrismas tree…as a matter of fact, it is probably one of my least favorite things to do EVER! But, this year, for some reason it was different. I went to the tree and started to gently remove the orniments I had on there. And I actually felt peaceful about it. Then I got to the point where it just had the lights on and I just couldn’t bring myself to unwrap them yet. I want to keep it up for a little while longer. Since it just makes the house feel warmer. Wouldn’t mind keeping it up all year.

The “dog clause”

Last year I resolved to have a “perfect year” minus “the dog clause” This clause was that it didn’t matter what happened during the year I was going to handle it without it getting me down. The “dog clause” was in there since my dog was not doing well and I thought I was going to have to put him to sleep.

So…guess what? I did have a perfect year. Not that everthing was perfect, but I handled it in the most perfect way I could. And…my dog lived through the year.

So again I resolved to have a perfect year, and I am leaving the “dog clause” out….I will deal with it too, but no sense in worrying about something that hasn’t happened yet and planning on something that is might get you down….

Well Geee….what a start to a New Year! Anna had her baby premature because Chis hit her, she fell and her placenta started to detach. My new Grand Daugher Willow was born on Jan 1st. Now I can look at the tragedy of what happened…or I can look at the miracle. I am choosing to look at the miracle. My daughter and Granddaughter are o.k. Thank you God
