HAPPY NEW YEAR, 2015!

Tonight I hung out with my family. 3 generations playing Pictionary, the Dictionary game, eating snacks and watching The New Years Eve movie. (That movie is quickly becoming a tradition with us.) Now, as midnight and a new year approaches, the teens are off with their friends and we're counting down the minutes to a brand new year. New beginnings after a rather challenging year.

So from all of us to all of you...

May your new year be full of big dreams, hard work and answered prayers. God bless you in 2015!

Happy New Year, Blue Moon and all

I hope everyone had a fantastic New Year. It's so hard to believe another year has passed. And to go out with such a cool finale. A Blue Moon! I couldn't resist, I had to take pics and share it with my friends. My camera doesn't have the best night mode, so I had to lighten them up in photoshop. I think they still look cool and a little artsy maybe? I took them from my back door, looking through the giant ice cicles hanging from the roof.

Happy New Year!

Song Stuck on the Brain: I'll Be Home For Christmas ... I know, I know, I've got to get these Christmas songs out of my head.

Wow, I can't believe we're on the cusp of a new year already. 2007 came and went so fast, I can feel my head still spinning. I'll be glad when all of the holidays are past and I can settle back into a somewhat normal routine. I feel like I've been running in circles.


I didn't get a post in on Friday, because I was prepping for the benefit concert that was being held on my behalf. My co-worker, Matt Black, planned the event. His brother David's group All For One of KC performed, as well as One Voice, Matt and my family. We sang the Christmas song I wrote. After the concert, my friends, Amy and Stacy, held a silent auction and bake sale. It went really well. We didn't have a very large crowd, but everyone was so generous. God really blessed me and the funds raised will help me pay on my medical expenses.


2007 was a year of racking up debt, but this gave me a great kick start for '08.


Here's hoping your new year is prosperous and full of dreams come true.
