Happy New Year!
Well, I got this blog back up and running. I hope we can use it as much as we did last year.
It's been such a great and blessed year. Honestly. My friend, Kip, said "Do you know how lucky you are??" And yeah - I do know it.
We just came back from a trip to see Bryant and Kristie. Charly, Jess, Stacey and Jake were with us. And though the time is never long that we have to spend together, I am thrilled at the times we have.
I have lost over 80 lbs. now. I am so glad I had the surgery in the summer. A lady named Lisa said to me a day or so after the surgery "you are on the other side of the fence now" and wow! I am. So much I can do now that I couldn't do before. Mostly I can play with my granddaughter. She can sit on the lap and we can read books or play the piano and sing. I can't wait to do those things with my little grandson. I can't wait to just sit on the beach and build sand castles with them.
What a miracle has happened in our family. Kristie and Bry live in a one bedroom apartment and would love to have a 2 bedroom for the baby. So they ended up having a flood in their living room and it's a miracle that none of the electronics were damaged. But the damages to the apartment are so much that the property managers need to have their apartment cleaned. So, Kristie asked for a 2 bedroom apartment and not only did they get one, but they also got it for less money than they are currently paying now.
It's just more evidence that the Lord knows our needs and blesses our lives.
