A Funny Thing Happened On The Way to 2011

Tomorrow is the last day of the year.  I looked back through my posts from the beginning of this year to see how I did with my goals.  I'm pretty happy with the personal goals that I achieved and the fact that I decided to tweak a few of them.  Life's too short to set too many rules for yourself. Here's my report to myself: Have a relaxing vacation with Lloyd and Ginger - Done!  We had a wonderful week in Bethany Beach in July. Buy a KitchenAid Stand Mixer - Done!  And I love it. Read through the Bible end to end - Abandoned.  I was finding that this was getting too rigid for me.  I may revisit it some day (maybe even in 2011) but I was missing too much. There were times I just wanted to dwell on three verses that we speaking to me.  I think trying to do it in a year isn't the answer for me.  Maybe just reading through it at whatever pace I need is the answer. Learn to cook some new, creative dishes - This is a sort of thing.  I tried new recipes but I wouldn't

We had a great Christmas this year.  I was so excited that Lloyd was home from the hospital almost 10 days before Christmas!  His health has for the most part returned and we were able to have a quiet but fun time.  Ginger visited from NEPA and we had lots of sisterly fun, including a day trip to DC (many of the pics are from there).  Also in these photos are a friend, Pat, who shared Christmas with us and our dear cat, Wuzzy.

Happy Easter Christmas!

I'm working on this poem.  It needs a little polishing. The thought of Easter was on my mind much of yesterday afternoon when a song I heard on my iPod triggered my thinking. Easter Christmas by Linda Sargent It's Christmas and some  say live in the moment But my mind must jump to the spring For although it's December, I have to remember That Easter is what makes me sing See, Christmas is a wonderful time But it means so much more to my heart To know that His rising means I'm realizing That Christmas was just the start So at Christmas time I remember this truth That Christ came to set me free That babe in the manger is no little stranger He's the one who died for me
