    This month I was happy about: starting my new daytime hours. This month I was sad about: just still really missing me Dad. Something I accomplished this month was: getting used to working like normal people.

    Liebster Award

    A fellow ALWB blogger, Carol, has nominated me for The Liebster Award. Thanks so much, Carol! Now I get to answer the 11 questions, she asked. So here goes… 1. Are you a cat or dog person? I am a dog person, no doubt. I don’t mind cats except that they jump up on everything and that just stresses me out. 2. What was the most controversial thing you have ever blogged about? I don’t talk politics and I don’t share a lot of my private life…So when I try to think about the most controversial thing I’ve blogged about…

    More thoughts…and pics of Dad

    I received my Dad’s ashes a couple of weeks ago. I’m thankful to have them in my possession now. So I’ve started to casually look at the costs of going down to the Florida Keys, where he wanted to be spread. I am thankful to have one loose end taken care of and I hope to have more closure when we take this trip. I’ll share more about that as it comes about.

We walked by this beautiful church, All Saints Episcopal Church and decided to go inside.

    Good News!

    So the other day, I eluded to the fact that I had some exciting news! Although, it shouldn’t effect my blogging at all, my family will totally benefit from it.

    Tiffany & Dad

    I am really missing my Dad lately. I was excited to get some pics that my cousin, Tiffany, took in December on a couple different occasions. Here’s one from December 14, 2013 of my Dad and Tiffany. I just look at this picture and I just still can’t fathom that he is gone. His body is now ashes waiting to be “blowing in the wind” in their final resting place. I just can’t believe that just a few months ago, he was living life, like nothing was wrong, not knowing anything was wrong. I am so thankful he is no…
