 Em and I had a fun visit with Jana, Emma and Abby, I always feel like I'm in the presence of a great miracle  when I'm with these girls!  Happy Birthday Jana!
I have the worst luck with vacuums, I had to change the stupid belt today TWICE!


I've been thinking of my sister all day today as she has her first chemo. I wish I was with her, but only one person can go back with her and today Paul went. I'm praying everything goes well.

January 9th

It's still a beautiful January. What a great day for a walk.

January 8th

When I work, it is sometimes hard to figure out what my picture should be, but today I think Elizabeth's shoes are perfect!

January 7th

While I was working Robbie made his first wood working project with the tools he got for Christmas.

I went with my sister to the oncologist today. I was going to retake this picture, but this one makes me laugh!

Fresh Start

Wow! Two years without a post, some blogger I am.
So this year is going to be different. I guess I feel like I don't
really have much going on, no kids at home.
So not much exciting happens, but it feels like the
years speed by and I don't even know where they go.
So maybe this blog will help.

My goals for 2012 are to take a picture everyday, I will be getting Jill's Canon Rebel soon and I'm very excited  to start learning some things with it. I will be posting those pictures here, sometime with a description, more than likely without one. I hope in doing this I will have more gratitude in my life for the little things. Another goal is to exercise for at least 15 min. 5 days a week. I figure once I get started I'll go longer. Of course to lose 20lbs and eat healthier, blah, blah, blah......


2012 is starting out to be challenging already. Dad on IV antibiotics through a PICC line for endocarditis and Cher starting her battle with breast cancer. We have exciting things going on too. Emily leaves for Amersterdam at the end of this month, I can't wait for the Harris family vacation to Europe in July, and my trip to Cancun with my Rick Sisters in November.
Happy New Year!  Text to Emily who is in St Louis.


                     I often have wanted to climb into a pile of warm laundry myself.


This is Megan at work. I told her about my picture a day project and she said excitedly that she wanted to be today's picture. She is so goofy! I love this girl, she always makes my day more fun.
