Tomorrow is the first day back to school and it looks like it might be a snow day. Funny if it works out that way. I mean -- we've been waiting to start back up and then this blizzard comes along. I'll be watching the cancellations fo sho!
I won't complain though -- at least it's at the beginning, right?
Mom and Dad celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary this past Friday. It's amazing and I'm proud of them. Here they are, 50 yrs. later more in love with each other than before. Gives me hope. :)
Been talking with someone for about 5 months. He's really nice and I think he likes me too. Unfortunately, he's out of state...but he plans on moving back to Maine in the spring. Who knows? He's nice and makes me laugh -- I like him.
The Patriots are winning like gangbusters and it's exciting! Never thought I'd be "in to" sports, but I don't mind watching football or baseball. Prefer live baseball, but oh well. :)
boy! I've just run out of things to say -- I usually have to just stop myself. ha! Hope you enjoy -- whoever reads this droll blog of mine.

vacation
This is the last week of vacation and I haven't done a cotton-pickin' thing that's been productive other than go to PROP this afternoon to see about fuel assistance. I'm hoping that they approve me again this year and that they come through with help for CMP and Portland Water. That would certainly be a help and welcomed relief. It's been hard and I'm in the midst of trying to trust God for sending help -- providing for me, as He promises. Very hard for me for some reason.
Last week I was sick all week - not a fun way to spend my school vacation, but at least I wasn't missing any school because of it. It was horrible though. I had this horrible dizziness that lasted for at least 4 days on top of a cold. It was dreadful. If it was only just the cold, it wouldn't have been so bad, but that dizziness was really hard to live with. I couldn't go too long without having to lie down. NOT fun.
This morning, I stayed in bed till almost 8am. I was awake before, but didn't feel like getting up. Well, it IS vacation after all. ;)
I've got to pick up some projects like crocheting soon. I didn't even get any blankets to the Peabody House this past December and I don't like that. I didn't do ANYthing for charity -- or hardly anything. Horrible feeling.
I've been here at the house for a year and it's great. Doesn't feel that long and doesn't seem like a reality even now. But, what a joy it is -- even with some of the bad that's happened. God is GOOD!!!

school
ps: I passed most all my classes (the one I'll have to take over is just one credit and hard -- ear training...ugh!! that was no surprise, though -- never did well on the dictations!!) and I'm on to the next semester with pretty decent grade considering how blasted hard it was!! Praise God!!!
I MADE IT!!
I MADE IT!!
2008
Happy New Year!
2008 has certainly started with a bang....she said sarcastically. Truth is, I got hit with bug that included dizziness which left me homebound after Kara's wedding. I felt I was coming down with something that afternoon, but would NOT have missed that wedding for the world!! (She was absolute GORGEOUS -- so beautiful and princess-like.) If the wedding photos hadn't taken so long and I wasn't feeling badly, I would have stayed to get more hugs in from my beautiful girls. Oh, they've grown up so beautiful. Definitely the "rule the world" types fo sho!! ;) Good time and good cheese cake, which was my consolation of not getting to spend more time with Kara, Bep and Chel. :-D What a way to go! heh heh
Today, I went to a brunch and, even though I was still feeling a bit off, it was a good time. I'm glad I pushed through the fog and went. Marilyn and Anne always make me feel better!!!!
And, speaking of feeling better, the headache is leaving (thank the Lord) and my dizziness is starting to go away!!! Yipeeeeee! Terrible feeling, that.
I've made no NY's resolutions and probably wont, since none of us seems to be able to stick to 'em for long anyway. Suffice it to say, I intend on taking all opportunities that come my way -- especially if they better me and enrich my life!!
Now, off to finish watching Jane Eyre. Life really is good.
