Missing my family

Today I am missing my family that is not here. It is quite quiet really. Susannah and I have watched a couple of DVD's lately one was good and one wasn't so hot. One of the movies was, "My sisters' keeper". It was very good, but I cried a lot watching it. Abigail Breslin looks so much like my 10 year old daughter - its uncanny! I found out today that tomorrow I will train to clean the government building. They don't really want to pay me as much as I am asking, but I am not desperate and don't... Sign in to see full entry.

Full day

Stayed up late again, but not to write. We were invited by our friends to their daughters' confirmation and then after to dinner at his new restaurant. We went to the church, standing in the back and watching until it was over. Then we went over to the restaurant in the conference room. The 2 doctors I work for (I clean their offices) and our friends' sister and brother-in-law was also there. It was quite an honor to be invited. The meal was great and friendship too. I didn't hear from my family... Sign in to see full entry.

New cleaning jobs

I started an entry this a.m. but it got deleted -:( So, here I go again... Last night I got to bed late. I thought I would get up at 8:00 and be fine, but my dear husband called me at 5:30 and I couldn't get back to sleep. I ended up getting up around 6:30 and visited with my friend when she got up, until they left. I went back to bed at 8:00 and rested for an hour or so. Finally around noon I went to clean houses, after coffee. That went well. My son and daughter-in-law left for the "valley"... Sign in to see full entry.

I met a new friend today...

It's late again, but I don't have to get up at 6:00 tomorrow. We have company, only till tomorrow a.m., so I really wanted to spend time with my friend and not go to bed early. Today went well I think. Starting the day, I got up at 6:00 and pushed the snooze button once. I still got to work on time though. I was very happy to see that all the files in the main office were moved. That means that hopefully soon I will have more control over the hours I work. But, sadly, today I realized it could...

Too tired to write much

I am really tired. My family (some) are on the way to Mexico with some other people. They will make it almost to Phoenix, Arizona soon. I miss them already. The novel is slowly coming along. I wrote quite a bit yesterday when Susannah was in gymnastics. It needs some life though. I may have time to write tomorrow. I don't think I'll hit the 50,000 word mark, as I'm only on 8,500 with only 12 days to go. Oh well, I tried. And, I'll try to finish it, then take a year to edit it. Goodnight all. I'm...

About this Blog

I plan on writing about past and present life experiences and what I have learned from them. I also want to tell stories of things in my past, some humourus, some serious and some trivial. I have done some traveling and want to describe those places and people accurately, maybe in some cases changing names if I see it could embarrass someone. I will write out of my heart and hopefully give hope to some of my readers. I do not have all the answers, but have lived long enough to know there are many trials in life and obstacles. I want to examine life, it's simplicities and complexities and share my observation and at times opinions with others.
