Intentions and The Route!

It's Monday and I'm looking forward to the week! It's great to say that and mean it, life seems to be unfolding for the good. Wait, I am intending life is unfolding for the good, for the Higher Power and all who believe. (I understand Intentions, but still can't word it right, but it works)

Elissa is happy and planning her wedding. I am so happy for her. I'm not sure about sharing her with someone else (that sounds ridiculas), but it is as it should be. I think she has found a good mate, one that I'll be happy to call son.

I'm not so sure about George. He struggles with physical pain even with the infusions and a boatload of medications. I hate it for him, I know pain can cloud ones vision. I try to help him and be positive. I share what I am learning with him, but he's not into talking about the spirit much. I wish he was, it would help us both. He worries and fusses and I have to be careful or he brings me down.

I love being able to talk to Dr. Z about anything. He is always upbeat in a quiet way that makes me feel at home. He is able to say a lot without talking much and I get so much good from that alone. I feel like he understands me, even when I don't. Starting back to see him has definitally been a good thing.

Work is wonderful. I don't feel like it's work at all, and it freaks me out to get a check on Fridays! I have gotten the route down pretty well, I still use the directions a good bit. More and more that's just for backup, though. I'm getting to know the people now and that's what it's really about. I got some valentines to give everybody, hopefully they'll bring a smile to them.

More next time....

Peace

New Year 2010!


I haven't done this in a while and it feels good to be writing again.

We all got through the holidays, and it turned out to be very nice. It was just the two of us and we really got into being together. I got a lesson in Making Do, as my oven quit and I cooked the turkey in the crockpot! Luckily, I had just gotten a breast, so it fit, barely. It turned out really good. As did the rest.


I started volunteering for Meals on Wheels right before Christmas and after one day they offered me a job! I deliver meals to homebound people M-F in the morning. It is as good as it comes for me and I love it. I went alone the first time last Wednesday, and got my first check since I became disabled! It was so cool!

I met Leigh and family in Dalton for dinner a couple of weeks ago and that was fun. It was good being with them. Leigh suprised me with a stocking filled with things like Mama used to. That was so special, I almost cried. Talk about thoughtful....

Elissa and Hubert went to France and I really missed being able to talk to her. We did Skype one day and they told me the news-Hubert officially proposed to her! On the Seine River, no less, along with champagne! He couldn't have gotten more romantic!! I look forward to helping with the wedding once she decides where and when.

I guess all in all it's been a pretty eventful time. Now I look forward to getting into a routine, and George and I getting down to business. I will try to keep up with this better.....

Peace
