Procrastination!!

It's a gorgeous southern California day!  A little cloudy and 77 degrees.  I got up early and took a walk with a friend and came home to tackle my computer room that has become the junk pile room and it's BAD!!!  I really have good intentions of cleaning up this room each and every week for the last 4 weeks.  However, it's so nice outside that I'm making every excuse to walk outside and take it all in.  I took out some trash, watered my pots and just enjoyed the feel of the sun on my skin.  The photos today are from my backyard the other day.  I love the backyard and we spend a lot of time out here in the summer.  I need to find some new chair pads this year and I was thinking about spraying my outdoor table and chairs brown.  There is nothing wrong with them except the green is faded and I like the brown outdoor furniture now So...guess I should get moving on my computer room so I can enjoy the outdoors redoing my outdoor furniture.  I will keep you posted.  

Off to run a few errands....the computer room will just have to wait!  :)

Happy Easter!

I get to go to Dallas!!!

Should we go see South Fork???

I know I want to stay here!!  The OMNI!! Love their beds!

I am so excited!  Hubby has a business meeting at the end of the month in Dallas, Texas and I get to go along!  I've never been there and am hoping you all can help me with what we should do for the two days that we have to sight see in the Dallas area.  I know I want to stay at the Omni Hotel.  Other than that...I am researching on line to see what else we can do. A rodeo?  Tour of Cowboy stadium?  JFK memorial?  So help me....will ya???  I've got to keep busy now that Bella and Dylan are gone!  :(  I'm looking forward to your advice.  You all were great when we went to Chicago last year and gave me some great places to visit.

They Made It!

Thank you everyone for your prayers and kind words. Dallas and his family made it safely to Denver last night. They drove all the way through....about 19 hours. Bella and Dylan were troopers and did just great! Thank you again! I'm having a Grandma Day with Mason today and lovin' it!

Sad and Happy!

Please pray for travel safety as Dallas and family travel to Colorado tomorrow! Thank you!

It's been a tough month as we've decided to close our small business after 2 years and our son who ran the business for us has decided to move to Colorado. WOW!!! A lot of emotions and tears and joy and sadness....I am one out of control girl and if you know me....I like to be in control. So what does this all mean...once again, I acknowledge that God is in control and is walking with me through it all. It makes it easier but not easy to go through it.

So...Dallas, Selena, my precious Bella and sweet Dylan are moving approximately 986 miles away. I realize now that I was fortunate to have all of my children and grandchildren within an hour from me and having Dallas and his precious family in town was an absolute blessing. I am saddened but excited to see them go. I was the one that moved away from my family to experience life for myself and our family. So I understand Dallas' yearning to explore. He and I understand each other and love to travel and see and experience different places. He has always loved fishing, camping and shooting guns. He is so looking forward to doing a little bit more of the outdoor activities. And once more God shows us he is in control....Dallas got a call today that he has a job and starts next Monday. Dallas had been applying for jobs here in southern California for the last 6 months to see what was out there and never got one call or followup. In one day, he got 2 calls to follow up on applications he had placed in Colorado online. So I am sad and happy for my son and his family and will miss them terribly. Some good news...I get to travel to Colorado, a place I've not been in a long time. So I'm excited to make plans to visit Bella and Dylan in the near future (and of course, their mom and dad!).

The business closing will be a blessing too and a big relief. Another not easy to go through experience but I feel such a relief not to have to continue something so stressful at this time in our lives. I want to thank Lisa at Sharing Life with Lisa for her blog that encourages me always as does Lisa with her kind comments left on my blog. God is using her mightily! Check out her blog here and join me in knowing that Jesus is enough! I don't know how I would make it through the trials in my life without Jesus. Today I am looking UP even though my emotions are all over the place!! AMen! JeSus Is EnoUgH!!
