Update on life here...


Well as we adapt to a new state and its weather, and bugs, and well new obligations, I can tell you its been one heck of a ride on this roller coaster of life. Lots of good, and not so good, never bad.

The kids are doing AMAZINGLY at their new schools,and our youngest was dx with Asperger Syndrome, so we are viewing that as a change for the better...even though it has its days. KD will head to school next fall, and Shayne will deploy again this spring....if you'd like to follow that ride, please feel free to check out my Missing You blog to keep updated on that adventure.

Last year I tried to be POSITIVE all the time, and I fell very short some days, some weeks, even some months. But I can tell you that I did learn a lot about myself, and about my life. I know (as everyone does) that life is what you make of it....and you get only as much out of it as you put into it. That being said, I am ok...I am proud of me. That doesn't mean I don't want to make changes, but I'm good.

This year's journey on this blog will be devoted to "things" and "changes" about the kids, myself, and our life. Once again I will try to find the "smile" or something "positive" in all of it. I want to finish a book I started a few years ago, I am going to lose some of this weight...not all of it that would be unrealistic, but some of it. I am also going to be starting a blog list (to keep me accountable) of "101 things I want to do in 1001 days"...so check for that update, and as always, please feel free to ask anything, and touch base, as I can use all the chatting I can find on here.
