Summertime

This has been a crazy and disorganized summer. The month of June was spent helping my daughter, Jess,and her boys move into the cabin next door to me...best idea ever. My daughter Kayte was in Costa Rica for the summer and was wholeheartedly missed. Cookouts just weren't the same! July has been spent getting everything set up, organized and working. Lots of food, music, laughter, fun, camraderie and love. I have also spent a few days driving to San Antonio to work for my friends at Dazzles. August has me holding my breath. My work schedule starts on the 10th with school starting on the 17th. There has been very little time for swimming in Lake Austin, and not a single weekend for traveling to Uvalde to swim in that cold Nueces River nor a few days for traveling down to the coast in Port Aransas. Only a few more days of R&R...who knows what will happen!

Yes, Sheila, I breathed a sigh when I finally got around to finding your post regarding "this 2009 Summertime". Actually, this whole year is quite memorable for me.. for many, many reasons; much that I do not post on FB... ha ha
Let's just say that approximately one year ago I was truly surprised at where I am in life and even shocked at an introverted look at myself. Then, all the deaths occured this year. I truly know, more than ever, that we never quit "growing up" in this life. But, there always is the "today" and "tomorrow"! Thanks for the sharing of your heart... Hugs, Diana

Diana, thanks so much for taking the time to find my blog and for dropping in and posting a comment. It is a good feeling to know that someone is listening and sharing.

You have definitely had more than the lion's share of deaths this year. I have marveled at your strength and tenacity.

I hope we can talk more about your revelations of yourself. I love visiting with you.
