Hello Out there! Long time No See!

It was pointed out to me recently that that I had not written on my blog in a while. Sometimes life just takes over. Sometimes I don't want to share what I am dealing with with the whole world. What things you ask? Everyday problems that everyone seems to deal with. I don't want to whine about my problems because everyone is dealing with something. Suffice it to say life is a journey and we all experience bumps and detours along the way. I am still dealing with my fibromyalgia. Some days are so hard....but I try to keep going. I am still crocheting.....as long as my hands hold out.....and I have discovered that it seems to help me feel better....mentally better. I find donating some of my items to the Pregnancy Life Center of the NICU unit really blesses me. I am still helping to take care of my aunt. She is precious but sometimes it is a depressing part of my day. I remember how she was and it makes me sad. I find a lot of joy in my children and grandchildren. There is something so precious to watch your children parent their children. God has been dealing with me also. I no longer look at some things the way I once did. I am not as rigid in my thinking. He has shown me that we are all different and that it is a good thing. He has shown me there is more than one way to look at something and that is a good things also. He is showing me that love and compassion are still 2 of the most important things you can have for others. I am happier now that spring is here. I can't wait to be able to sit outside more. My husband and I are embarking on a healthy eating adventure...hopefully to be followed by more walking. Stay tuned and I will keep you updated. I love fruits and veggies.....but am trying to give up my cola!! Ugh!! This is going to be hard!! Sometimes this world is a wonderful and amazing place.........and sometimes it is a sad and horrible place. I want to try to make my little corner a better place. I am still "seeking eccentricity"...trying to get out of my 53 year old rut I found myself in and I am happy to say I am still on this amazing adventure.
