So Worth It

Seeing a pic of my grandson opening a box of goodies from us is worth all the little headaches I encountered.......To get it ready to ship before the mailman got here.

It took awhile to find out how I print the shipping label.  Yay I finally found the button to print!

Oh no!  Of all times the printer is out of ink!  I have never changed the ink before but I can say now......I know how to change the ink!

Now where did that button go to re-print that label? 

Oh the stress of technology!

No reason for this picture except he is the cutest horse groomer I ever saw!

Spring Miracles

I felt like superman as I stood up from my chair......picked up that heavy blue blanket and lifted it to the top of my wardrobe! 

I said "wow this is just miraculous!  I haven't been able to do this in years" even decades!

Sometimes the simple things in life become the big things!

I am Thankful for 56

My birthday lunch with my Aunt Sue, me, and my sweet mil Edeltraut

I celebrate my birthday enthusiastically because there was a time in my life that I wondered if I would make it to 56!!

When I went to the church to volunteer they had a little cupcake waiting for me!  

I heard from my kids, sisters, Facebook friends so all in all I am one very blessed person!

On this Good Friday I wish you a Happy Easter as I reflect back on 56 years!

My Worn Out Boots

My dirty worn out boots make me so happy.......it shows me how much I have walked with my walker this year!  

I haven't had worn out shoes in 20 plus years since riding in a wheelchair takes no toil on shoes!

                I think I will need to buy a new pair of boots next year!

As the boot shows I still have a foot drop problem but I do not like to wear my brace....a comfort level thing.

What a great problem to have......dirty wore out boots!

Our 31st Anniversary Trip

Hubs pushing me in manual chair out to see the view seems like a good loving way to spend our 31st anniversary! 

We went to Cheaha State Park in Alabama!  It was Alabamas highest point so the scenery was so pretty!  Even in February.....

There were no restaurants open....winter hours......so we ate crackers!  Then drove around looking at what the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corp) had built in the 1930s

Me in front of the rock tower the CCC camp workers had built before fancy machines!

The best part of the trip was the 1500 ft ramp they had built as access to the scenic view!  

It had a great view of the gnarly trees that the weather had shaped

It sure was windy on top of that mountain but such a fun day with hubs.....

I am blessed and very thankful for our life together!
