I have been thinking of starting a blog for a long time, but it took a sweet daughter in law starting to blog that made me finally take the big step. I am not really sure what I want to share with anyone who might read this, but I think I will just meander through highs and lows of my life and see what happens.
I am a daughter, with both parents still living, although in poor health, a wife, with a wonderful husband, a mother, to five great adult children, a grandmother to nearly 13 ( number 13 coming in march) of the most beautiful grandchildren ever born, and a mother in law to 3 amazing daughters in law and 1 amazing son in law. I am also a child of God and I hope that helps me as I navigate through all of these relationships.
I retired almost 2 years ago with only a nebulous idea of what that meant. No more getting up early, early in the morning. I am still usually up before 6. No more buying work clothes. Jeans and tees usually work for me. No more getting my heart broken from hearing stories of abuse, sadness and disfunctional families. (More about the work I did later.) More time with grandchildren, time to really clean closets, organize pictures, volunteer, exercise, read, and let's be honest here, watch TV and roam around in the cyber world. I will touch on all of these things in the future and as my mind meanders around, maybe much more. For now, I will keep notes of random thoughts I might share and when it comes time to write, I hope I will be able to find them.
