I'm Still Here

Dear blog,

This Winter & Spring I've been a bit blue. I've decided maybe I'm dealing with empty nest syndrome...

Skye comes home less. She stays fewer days. This isn't her primary location anymore. Her important stuff is located in Boone. A good thing for her, making her way in the world. An adjustment for me.

I guess most of my identity is wrapped up in my children. I've been a mom for 37 years. A long time. And someone was right under my wing until 2009.

So, what am I doing? What is my identity?

I am blessed to have long time friends that still take time to have lunch with me about once a week:)

I work part time at Hallmark & love my co-workers.

I volunteer for a mercy ministry at church.

Love my Bible Study sisters--we meet weekly:)

Like checking out Facebook & my emails & watching TV (especially March Madness & UNC basketball).

Love watching Peace softball games, hanging out with dear church friends (April-June)

Love reading my Kindle!!

Enjoy walking.

Love my Wyatt:)

Love doing a painting project or bike or have lunch with my family.

Love that Cameron & Seth & Kelley live CLOSE:)

Love to travel & visit extended family:)

Love my hubby--who doesn't care that I don't like to cook anymore:)

It's cathartic to lists all those blessings:)

My health is good, even though I need to be more diligent with my diet.

Lord willing, I'll overcome this dry time, in time:)

Hopefully journaling will return.

Don't give up on me blog!
