OCT - NOV 2010

Wow, two months come and gone, the Halloween month was very full, looking for a place to move into, finding the apt., moving into the apt. all with in 2 weeks..... Then it was un-pack put away, find things or not finding all of the things I thought I had and now don't. Then it was Halloween. What a month and what an adventure !!!
Next thing I knew it was Nov. 2010, crunching the numbers for the budget, then crunching again... it all looks good on paper so I think things will be fine. Work is doing well, still liked by my Boss and trainer and my performance evaluation went better than I thought, all High Mets and lots of support from my Boss.
Thanksgiving is this week so just a few of the many things I am grateful for and have been blessed with would be: a nice job with opportunities to excel. A nice comfortable apt. with a landlord that cares. A loving and supportive family and friends, who allow me to just be me!! Food on the table, heat, lights, a nice car that runs very well. Clothes on my back (thank goodness) a smile on my face and good health. A loving and caring Heavenly Father that has had my back through out my many adventures, and kept me safe. A country that allows for freedoms unlike so many other where it is not allowed. For the changing seasons each year and in my life that have allowed me to grow and become a more caring, loving, supportive and understanding person. A special thanks to my parents for bringing me into their lives, for loving me and being there for me. A special thanks to my sister and brother who also take the time to spend time with me and love me unconditionally. A huge thank you to each one of the children, I am so very lucky that each one of you came into my life, that you love me and care about me and have now added to that warmth in my life with sweet grandchildren. So you see my life is full of so many beautiful things and I am truly blessed. May this Thanksgiving holiday be full of love, joy and memories. Thanks for all the good times:)

September 2010

Well, it is mid September 2010, fall is in the air and the season changing feels nice. I have a new car 2008 Chevy Avero, very nice car I am enjoying it. Work is good, my Q/A score this month was 100%. All my children are doing well, Corie and her family are in Texas. Terry is traveling with his work and Corie's fabric business is doing well. Her children are growing up way to fast they sure are sweet kids. Amber and her family are all doing well, Amber and Cody are both in school, Amber for a BA and Cody for Computers. The girls are very involved in school and dance having lots of fun with their friends. Rachel is working at a job that she loves in the library surrounded by books and working on her BA. She is living the life being single :) Erin and her family are doing well, Bert is working for T Mobile and he does very well at it, Erin is a busy mommy and is developing her photography talents each day. Lil Bit is growing so fast she is talking and also signs quite a few words. I am working at saving more and putting my self out in the world to meet friends. I get to the gym 3 days a week which I really enjoy and I am looking for a dance studio where I might be able to take ballroom dance. I hope to be in a place to purchase my own home once again come spring of next year. I hope to save up some money to surprise my best friend with a 4 day visit this next year also. All in all life is like a box of chocolates you never know what adventure will come at you next.

Aug 2010

Well July was a trip and a huge adventure that is still happening. Was struck by a car going 45 down hill, totaled my nice car good thing no one was hurt amazing. I have since been looking for a replacement car but as of today I am still looking.... ugh. I will be relieved when that portion of the hunt is over.
Working still as a biller at IHC and it is nice. I am told I am doing well and they like my work. We do a Q/A review each month and so far I am between 85 and 90%. Not too bad, if I do say so.
Was going to the gym two to three days a week until the car accident. But since then with no car I have not been and I can really tell. It will be very nice to get back into going to the gym once I get my car!! Whoot woooo.
Life is just one adventure after another and I just keep moving through each one. I put on my boots stand tall and walk forward head held high and a smile most of the time.
As for now I am blessed with the best kids, son-in-laws and grandchildren anyone could have. They are the kindness, most caring group that could ever be in my life. I have great friends, a good job with a future and living parents and siblings (2) that have my back. I have my health and lots of energy to do the things I need or want to do. Life is good!!!

Wow it was one year ago this month that I started this Blog how time rushes by. I stated working with IHC which was a very good choice to make the District was horrible and caused me such grief. With IHC I am learning allot of new things and the group I am with have been great to work with. I am in Home Health in the billing dept. On the 4th of July 2010 I was T boned by a young man going down a hill at 45 mph, No one was hurt YEA!!! we were are very blessed. Today they were looking at my car to see what steps to take if it is fixable or not. I only hope for a nice running car with great gas mileage in very good repair with no payment. That is what I had before and feel that is fair to expect now. We will allow things to unfold.
It has been a very nice summer so far, went swimming a couple of times, reading allot of books, enjoying my granddaughters, learning to allow my parents to make interesting chooses regarding my youngest brother and allowing that to also unfold. Trust and faith are at times a struggle to hang on to, but I work at it each day. Allowing my "feeling to surface, processing them, and then look for the positives in each interesting situation. I have great friends and a wonderful family that help me to keep my feet on the ground and my hopes and dreams in front of me. I thank them for that. I hope withing the next few months to be moved and setting up my own home and starting a new adventure. Will write more in the near future

Last day in April

Well the spring has come and gone all month long it has snowed and rained and then the sun broke through the clouds from time to time. Tomorrow will be May 2010 and this year just keeps bringing more changes into my life. I am now looking for work once again. It has been made clear to me that the position will not work for me and I need to find something more suited to the skills and gifts that my Higher Power has blessed me with. So with that said I am applying and interviewing and trusting my Higher Power to guide me to the company and position that will be the best for me. I will trust that this will happen my the end of May as my needs have always been meant and I know this much when a door closes God will open another one. This time he will need to open the door wide and push me through as I am not trusting myself to get it. Oh I trust God just not myself :) So heres to the next 30 days and the new and wonderful adventures it will bring into my life !!

Ok here it is April 2010, again with no computer at home. I am taking a few minutes to write something. Spring is starting to show up, I have sold my home, living with Amber and her family and I am now on the hunt for a new job. Canyons have decided not to renew my contract come June 2010, not nice at all but it is what it is. Applying is time consuming but I am doing it. I try to get to the gym at least 3 times a week but it is hard with all the time I spend applying on line. I am gratiful that I have about 60 days to find something and if that does not happen I will go on unemployment until I do. I would like to travel to Texas to see Corie and the kids and to see Eileen in the near future. Lil Bit just turned 1 a day ago and it was so sweet to see just how much she has changed and grown. It was just a year ago that she was just so very tiny and she is still not very big. My life is changing still with each day that goes by and the future for me is unsure but I will take one day at a time, enjoy my kids, gr. kids, family and friends and allow for the future to unfold. It's a good day sun shinning, smiles on peoples faces, flowers starting to bloom and I am still breathing and walking LOL :)

March 2010

I have had some computer problems and now I am pretty sure they are fixed. I am currently working for Canyons School District as a secretary (clerk) It is full of interesting people and lack of plenty of work. I am looking with in the district and also out side of the district to see what other options I may have.

I am living with Amber and her family still and things seem to be doing well for the most part I do not seem to be in their way to often.

I am doing alot of self reflecting and I am not to sure I am totally happy with how things have turned out. I have higher expections of myself and where I am today in my life and I have not accomplished what I would have liked so far.

I have a wonderful family who I am so very proud of and some amazing grandkids, I have my health and my extended family and a few good friends so I guess not all is lost to the world of expections.

I will continue to live with Amber for a few more months before making any changes. For now I am looking at getting my math up to a point where I can finish my associate degree and that is taking alot of mental thought on my part.

I am happy to be a mom and grammie with all the love, joy, hugs and kisses it brings into my life. For tonight life is good.
