Time Flies Even When You're Not Having Fun!

So since my last writing the world has moved on and didn't end as predicted. I have moved back to the good ol USA and into our new home. We have painted and relayed floors. I have been in a life threatening car accident and survived with some long term injuries but not death,

I have not seen my precious grand daughter Brittny since returning to Florida. I hope and pray she is doing well and that she knows how much I love and miss her.I miss her so much and try to stay positive that she is happy and is having a wonderful summer. The importance of a granparents love was never something her Mother could ever grasp. So she has chosen to not allow Brittny to have a continued relationship with me or her sister Isabella. We miss you Brittny.

We have a new baby in our family her name is Sophie. Amazingly she looks like her grandma when she was born. Her grandmother is my sister Connie. Welcome to the World Sophie.

I have two 6 year old granddaughters Kaitlyn and Isabella who will be attending first grade this year. Not sure how many people remember the first grade but I do and it was the beginning of my love of school. My first grade teacher was Miss Vera. She was a dear wonderful person. She made my entry into school fun, exciting and challenging. I loved her and she had a true impact on me. Because of her I learned to love books and reading. I hope my granddaughters will look back on their first grade experience with fondness and love for their teacher. I also hope that the teacher that is lucky to have either of these sweet girls in their class can make a true lasting immpression on them. First grade teachers, are the motivators of six year olds.

Fianally, a quick mention of friends, old and new, found and lost. I lost a very dear friend a few months ago to suicide. He was a talented but tormented man that just could not take the pain of depression any longer. He suffered for many years from depression and PTSD. He was a Vietnam Veteren and had many demons from that war. I will miss him and regret not having talked to him in the last few years. RIP my friend.
Some friends you just have to resolve to not be friends any longer and this year found me doing exactly that. It's actually very liberating to let go of someone that you know is just not the person you like to be with anymore. Wish I had known this a long time ago!!

Well until next time..Go liberate your self. Let go of those that are "not you", Relay a floor, paint a wall, talk to someone you bhaven't talked to in awhile, cherish a new life and most of all discover the person you are.
