You have all warmed my heart so much...

but...

I have to take a break from blogging right now.

My health continues to grow worse...

And although my pain is not the boss of me...

my head is cluttered with trying to manage it 24/7...

my hands are growing more painful and everything has become much more difficult to manage.

New medications have been unable to help.

But...

The next foray into pain management holds some risk.

So while I am deciding how to proceed and while I am laying in bed and looking at the spectacular mountains and view from my window

I'm going to say bye for now.

I will pop on now and again to update you and tell you hi.

Over the many years I've been blogging I have made some incredible friends, some incredible memories...

and you have all blessed me more than you can ever imagine.

Truly remember friends that pain doesn't always show physically.

Look at peoples eyes and how they walk or struggle to put something into a grocery cart.

It never hurts to offer a smile or a helping hand.



Hugs, hope and happiness to you all.

Warm Heart Wednesday Week 25

It occurred to me the other day that sometimes I am stuck in the bad...not seeing or recognizing the good as often as I should.
 
I allow myself to be filled with weight and worry and woes.
 
Not always.
 
But sometimes too often.
 
I forget to remember the wonderful small, positive things that happen each week...a card in the mail, someone holding a store door or asking where I get my hair cut, a funny little story, or a ray of sunshine warming my face.
 
Warm Heart Wednesday is for me.   To start remembering.  And to make a journal of joy.
 
I hope you will consider joining me on this adventure by sharing something that made YOUR heart warm over the past week.  I think it will be fun and uplifting to read your ongoing journals as well.

I am caught up reading to week 20.   Later today I plan to steal Mr. Jenny's I-pad and read joyful linkies.   It will be good medicine today!

Warmed Heart Week 23

Alliteration.

Peter Piper Picked a Peck of Pickled Peppers.

Alliteration.

I love it.

Our youngest Granddaughter, Mo, was here over the weekend.   We found ourselves doing silly alliteration over everything.

Alliteration.

Awwwwww.

Lovely Lingering Lingo.

Warmed Heart 22

I heard the doorbell ringing at 7:30.

I heard Mr. Jenny tell someone that I was still in bed.

I heard Mr. Jenny close the door and when he walked into the bedroom he had a surprise.

It was a bouquet of flowers.

For me.

Delivered from a dear new friend.

And it was a wonderful start to my 60th birthday!
