Checking 1-2-3

Check! Check!  Does this mic still work?

I think I may only have 1 reader still out there, so if you are reading this, "hi!"

Anyway, I think I have come to a decision on blogging and the direction of this blog.  Yeah!  To be honest, I really thought I was going to hang up blogging all together, but then I keep getting this itch to post things about my life and so maybe I just need to get back on the blogging wagon.

So, I think (see I still can't commit) I am going to start a new blog!!!  Fun!  I really have peace about closing this blog.  I have LOVED this blog, but feel that it must come to an end. 

I hope you join me when I move over to my new blog!  I am thinking by the end of January I should have it all set up and ready to go.  At least that is my plan as it stands today anyway.

To close, here are a few pictures of Faith! 

Merry CHRISTmas and Happy New Year

I just don't know

It is official...I am in a blogging funk. 

Tonight, I suddenly had the urge to blog about this, so I jumped at the chance.

The truth is, I am in a dim place right now.  Life has just been such a struggle for me over the last 17 months specifically.  True, I have many wonderful things in life (my husband, daughter, family, and friends), but I tend to drop back to a sad place in my heart and mind and I am just trying to make sense of it and praying God would help me out of it.

With that said, I have really been contemplating the future of this blog and blogging in general.  I see it as 3 choices here:

1. To just take a break from blogging and return when I feel it is right for me.

2. To retire this blog, turn it into a beautiful book, and start afresh with a new blog with new ideas.

3. To quit blogging altogether.

I just don't know...  "I don't know" seems to be a theme in my life right now.  I. JUST. DON'T.KNOW

To close for now, I will end this blog entry with some pictures from Oct. 7, 2011, one year since Mom went to heaven.  My dear and special friends came to me about a week ago and said they wanted to make the day special for me and to honor my mom.  They wanted to do for me whatever I wanted to do that day.  I decided to have a play date with all the kiddos.  My friends surprised me with balloons to release, cake, and special notes they left at the grave site.  I will forever be touched by my thoughtful and loving friends.







I lift up my eyes to the mountains—

where does my help come from?

My help comes from the LORD,

the Maker of heaven and earth.

 He will not let your foot slip—

he who watches over you will not slumber;

indeed, he who watches over Israel

will neither slumber nor sleep.

 The LORD watches over you—

the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

 the sun will not harm you by day,

nor the moon by night.

 The LORD will keep you from all harm—

he will watch over your life;

the LORD will watch over your coming and going

both now and forevermore.


Psalm 121
