One More Day

Well, I don't know that I'm doing much better on the Dad thing, but the days are going by fast.

I did go to a great movie the other day, " The Proposal". It was hilarious. You have to go see it if you haven't yet.

Seems like each day that goes by I can think of so many things I could be doing. I need to get out there and do them before I get too old to even try. My mom is 65 and she went bungy jumping, rock climbing up a waterfall and a few other things that would make a young heart stop and ponder. Lol. She is great. I love her. I am talking about my stepmom. We didn't always get along when I was a kid. But I really love her and appreciate her now. She has been there for me through all the good and bad times. I would have had a worse time of dealing with my divorce if it hadn't been for her and my dad supporting me. Reminding me I had two kids to love and raise. Telling me everyday that they love me and were there for me. I don't know what anyone would do without a family to support them. I have always had a big family and we all love each other.

There are times when a scuabble (is that how you spell it?) pops up. Most of the time it's when both parties have things going on in their life and don't really pay attention to what is going on there at the time. You should always get both sides of the story before you make a decision.

That reminds me, I was taught a long time ago it's better to get both parties concerned in the same place and talk about the problem. That way they can't tell different stories to make each one look better. It works with kids too. Most of the time they won't tell lies if the person is sitting right there. There are some that don't care but mostly it will work.

Well I guess that's enough for today. I hope you have a great day. God bless you.

A New Start

Well, I thought I would go ahead and start blogging. I didn't want to miss out on the things that are "in the now". lol . My life has been full of ups and downs. I will tell you about some of them on here someday, but for now I want to tell you about how much I missed my Dad on Father's Day.

It's been a long hard road for me since dad passed away. He was my anchor. He would call me every day to see how I was doing after I got my divorce. I really looked forward to talking to him or going by to see him. The first birthday I had after he died was really hard. He always tried to be the first one to call and wish me Happy Birthday and it seemed like I waited all day for his call before it hit me that he wouldn't be calling that year. I tend to just ignore the fact that he's gone and not deal with it. It still hurts too much to think about it. But I have decided that before this year is up I am going to deal with it and go on with my life.

I loved my dad more than I can tell you. He was a good man, not always perfect, but a good man with a kind heart. He loved all of his kids and grandkids so much. All he wanted was for us to be happy and love the Lord and do right. I guess that's what any loving parent wants for their kids.

I know my girls still miss him a lot but they don't talk about it too much with me because I just haven't been able to talk about it. So would you please pray for me and help me get through this time?

Thanks for being a part of my day,
