Finally... :: 1
So here I am again. I didn't think it would take me this long to write again.
My life as I knew it 6 months ago came to an abrupt end. And the changes I am witnessing are a whole lot of emotions wrapped into one little bundle inside my body. I have feelings of happy, sad, excited, scared, confused, betrayed, anxious, guilty, grateful, and loved, sometimes all at once .....but above all this I am here and very hopeful for my unknown future.
I never knew how strong I was as a woman until I had to stand tall and face the unknown. And I give thanks to those in my life who have held me up. My wonderful friends and family have stood behind me supporting me through this journey.
With so many changes happening in my life, I would like to start a 30 day challenge for myself in this space. For the next 30 days I want to visit this space to include a picture which may or may not include words. This is not necessarily of my real-life day but of my future, past and present.
I want to remain positive concerning my future with me, my life and my son's well being.
So, with this being said I leave you with this:
It IS Strawberry Season!

Staying Here
I think Hell has come to stay at our little home for a while.
So, Oscar and I are making the best of our days. Filling them up with simple pleasures: morning walks, trips to the skate park, baked goods, warm drinks at local coffee houses and lots of Joy Juice.On our walk this morning, we found some helicopters. I haven't played with these since I was a kid. These are the things that I'm relying on to keep my sanity, simplicity of nature.
Hope you too are filling your days with things that you love
until next time

Life with Red Berries
I had a seriously wonderfully, beautiful day Thanksgiving.
I surrounded myself with loved ones, great food and beautiful weather, what more could you ask for....
Hope you did too!

Off Day
Today was a pretty off day for me. Oscar and I returned home from Florida last night. After unloading the car, I was reminded of our water situation.
Our well water has been containmented. We're not sure of what the culprit is just yet, but I hope after this Holiday week we will hear something.
I feel like Hell has just invaded my home.
So, being pretty depressing around here, Oscar and I decided to take it out.
We headed to the local coffee shop. We played checkers, battleship and read comics. Just the way to spend a day. (and they also have good running water!)
I intended to mail out my Holiday Stocking Swap package this afternoon but they were closed by the time I got there. I think our post office closes before any others in town do. Lucky us.
Anyway, I'll leave you with a taste of the package that I will be sending out tomorrow morning. I had a blast putting together these little packages and I hope they are enjoyed by their receivers!

Returning Home
We have returned from a quick trip to Florida to visit my brother, his wife, Grandma Betty and Aunt Mel and my cutest niece and nephew.
Oscar and I rode down with my mom. And I say that was the quickest, best trip that I have taken in a while. Oscar listened to some Magic Tree books on tape and my mom and I listened to The Help on cd, which, by the way, is a great book!
Built forts......
....and bathed in the morning sun
We drove over to see my Grandma Betty and Aunt Melody. My Grandma and Aunt have so many fun stories.
Grandma B was raised in England and grew up in pubs. She had so many stories to tell that we tried leaving many times and another hour would pass and 10 more stories would develop.
Get her and my aunt talking and they just tell story after story and laugh and laugh!
I just wished I had a recorder on hand to savor all the wonderful stories from her life. I could have spent all day there listening to her!
Above is the house Grandma grew up in. Her family lived in the left hand side and the middle was an Inn and a Pub on the right. If ever I get to England, I hope to visit the Bramblette Hotel.
Here she is with a table cloth she started embroidering on her grandmothers linen, over 125 years old. I hope she finishes it.....I would love to see the finished product.

Isn't she just the cutest?!
We, of course, visited my brother and his cute family. Little Reah turned ONE last week.....so cute!
And visited our new favorite ice cream shop, Heavenly Cafe and had some spicy chocolate gelato....yummo!
We paid a visit to the local Thrift Shop and picked up a new pet, Blue-Eyes. I picked up a few things that I couldn't put down.
We stopped by the beach, long enough to run up and down the beach before getting back to town.
Yes, he does.....Sage Rocks!
~Happy day to you~
