This is my first attempt to be a blogger. I hope to type a few items that you will enjoy. |
I do not know where to begin with this description. The time period is from 0 to now. Please don't ask how long that is. I am sure with certain clues, you will be able to figure that out. I am writing this on my favorite old computer at home. I have a computer room that doubles as a retreat for a few of my pets when they want to be alone. I will cover mostly current thoughts. I hope to add some pictures as I have seen in a blog. I think that to do this sharing will take a lot of work, but the pictures I have seen are well worth it. Occasionally, I might review a flashback in mylife. I have times when I just roll that special even around in my mind until it has every possible facet examined. Usually this time is to try to figure out a "what if" scenario. If some of my items have no zest to it feel free to say so. I think that after I have some a few trial runs, then the real me will be out for all of the world to see. Luck you! As the saying goes, "Come with me and the best is yet to be." |
I can say that I may have celebrated my 5th year here. What an experience! There is nothing like a new home in a state that I never had dreamed to live in. It is almost like moving to another planet. The captain of this flight is none other than my husband, Stan. He had lived in Texas or Mother Earth for about 32 years with a wife who he loved very much. His home planet, was Oklahoma or Mars. (Since it is colder in both places I felt that it was a fair comparison.) We had crew members in the form of a young husky dog and 5 cats. All of them were not thrilled but could not refuse. How am I doing? Well I guess I need to add a factor of aging. In five years I have put on weight and added bumps, bruises and various injuries, (including the one from a goose who was protecting his mate and their unborn child/egg.) Emotionally I have good and bad days. (don't we all). But adjusting is important and essential if I plan to live the rest of my life here. (I do.) Maybe thinking of the pros and cons of the move and changes would help but this blog is meant to journal some thoughts and feelings to create a picture of my world. (remember that I am on a new planet now) First of all, I am happy that I did to go to a hotter or colder place. I have seen and walked in snow. I have learned another language, Cherokee. I have made some nice friends. And I am in a lovely home that should take care of basic needs. My husband makes sure that we are all comfy and well. Oh, BTW I have lost two of my Cats, Shadow and Kluter. I lost two friends from Houston, Raynell and Becky. They were special and I hope they are at peace in heaven. Left behind are family. Two brothers who have wives. One oldest brother and his wife passed due to cancer. (I hate that monster with all of my heart.) My nephew is on his own and I believe he has friends who have such different political ideas that a conversation with any of them might turn into a (ahem...) war. It is better to leave that part alone. How much have I changed? Well I'll go into that in another blog. Let's just say that I try to adjust but still be me. Does that make sense? Probably not because my husband says that I jump around on topics a lot. My plan is to continue writing, continue physical therapy for my balance problems and help Stan have some good years of health and mental happiness. It is only a matter of time before I drive him crazy. I'm good at that. So if I have not gone to another planet, ONE YEAR FROM NOW...I'll see if there is something more of changes or challenges defeated to declare. June 5, 2025. here I come. |
