Togetherness
Sometimes the easiest way to keep Family and Friends together is by the good old safety pin. All are a charm and when communication is near and far in-between, this is the best way to keep all of the charming ones close as I am the one that drifts! My love to all, please remember that no one is forgotten, just hectic schedules, especially with the Holidays and new job!
Happy Holidays, Nana

I See....
I see, but I don't tell! I have a mysterious & mischevious side! As we all know, some things should be kept to ourselves. I hope that certain ones get the hint!

Pretty maids all in a Row...

Agenda
Well, as anyone can see, I still haven't caught up phone calls, e-mails, blogs, etc. Still working my way back into the job market, trying to get my feet wet, I know this is a time-consuming process, however I do have another interview scheduled. I have been cooking, which is a shock to everyone. (No one has died from food poisoning yet.)
As everyone knows, I think, we are considering selling our house and land and moving out of state. This has been a discussion for some time now, we have decided that we really need to consider making this a reality and get moving on things. So, I have several things on my plate and they are not just English peas getting pushed around.......

Explaination Needed?
I haven't blogged, returned phone calls or e-mails....
To all, I am sorry. Yes, for a while, things were falling apart. I moved away from my home, resigned from the hospital & basically tuned everyone out that cares about me.
I don't really know what to type (say), except that I am sorry.
In six months I have lost 40 lbs, excited at first, now concerned because that is too much weight too fast. I think (know), I have evaded a nervous breakdown, but only with God's grace I have done so. I am home, settled, a new hairstyle, short and sassy--finding clothes in the closet that actually fit & on the job search. Resumes are out there, been on an interview & mostly, received the best remark of all. "I act & look like myself again." I am beginning a new chapter in my life, I want to be healthy and happy... I know this starts with me acknowledging my problems & the pain I have caused the people I love. I need to be kind & considerate of others instead of being selfish & self-absorbed. All I ask, is to please be patient with me. As I have stated before, I am, & will continue to be a work in progress.
I hope that everyone will understand and accept my apology....... Nana

What is Time?
Well, here we are, another day, they say as time marches on-it marches right across your face. That conclusion, I am not really sure of. But I do know that times marches on really fast as you get older. I hope that time has made me wiser, well at least a little bit anyway.
We are born, we die---in between is just a flash---it is up to you what you do!
Just my thought for the day.
Enjoy, Nana!

Loved Ones
Well, where do I start? Me and Pops are worried about Geoff and Haley.....Haley's mom is there and causing both of them grief, and everyone else too. She is supposed to leave today, at least we hope so!
We have always been fair with her and she wants to act like this, even in front of Haley! I just don't know what to do or say, we are going to visit tomorrow as it is my mom's birthday... I care for Alicia as she was my daughter-in-law for so many years, and will continue to do so from now on... but enough is enough already. Geoff and Alicia can take care of themselves, but Haley is a little girl. It is clear that Geoff takes wonderful care of Haley and was not the one that left her. I wish her well, but it is time for her to go home.
That is all I am going to say about this subject.

Priorities
This post is a little off the wall, but than again, most of my posts are anyway.
I have been trying to decide how to respond to someone (no names, but I think they know) who has really gotten on my last nerve.... Please get your priorities in order, take care of your children and simply shut your mouth. Do the words, "just be nice" ring a bell?
If you don't have any respect for anyone else, at least show some for yourself. I feel sympathy for your family and friends because you have showed that you have none, especially since you claim to be the professional that you are. I really could post more, but I know that I do need to sweep off my own doorstep before I should tell someone else to do the same.
I hope that I have not offended any other readers, I just want to get this message across to this particular person... Nana

Get Real!
OK, enough slack over having 2 blogs, get over it... As I stated before, if you don't like it, don't read it. You don't even want to know how many e-mail addresses I have. Color me happy, short and skinny...and loving it, it is better than being fat, boring and stupid! ( This person knows who they are, so no names to incriminate me....but have we met or not?, I'll never tell.)
I know this blog sounds a little mean, but so be it..
My time is NOW and I am going to enjoy it! Criticisms are welcome!
Off to the beach I go....Later....

Weather
I am home today, a little under the weather, but up and around enough to still be a menace to the computer,oh, the joy of laptops, dragging them from place to place...
Someone told me over the weekend that sometimes we need to always live in the real world. I said why?, THIS it the real world and we all deal with real issues, but please don't suggest that we rob ourselves of our creativity.
Creativity is one thing that contributes to making each and everyone unique in their own sense.
I am perfectly happy living in the real world, and I enjoy the time, which is limited, to be "me", creative and unique. I have picked out a new phrase for people that get on my last nerve, purposely or not, "When the world gets in my way, I say have a nice day!" I think that BonJovi was dead on center when he wrote that tune.
This post is not intended for anyone in particular, but actually everyone, if you don't like what I write, then don't read it, it makes no difference to me. This Nana always tries to be upbeat,goofy and just Nana! Come on, people, get a grip and smile once in a while, it doesn't hurt you know.

Busy Friday
Today was extremely busy and hectic, actually the whole week. I hope to catch up on postings, etc soon. All is well, kids and grandkids are great, as for me--- well, working on it, but with the Lord and every one's prayers, things are so much better. I hope to have a bunch of new pictures soon...
Just wanted to jot a note to everyone who reads and say "hello"! More to come, I promise...

Tasks!
If a task is once begun,
Never leave it, 'till it's done...
Be the labor, great or small
Do it well, or not at all!

Just Jibbersh
Today is just an off the wall day.....working on my pictures, catching up on my e-mails and reading....and now posting. It seems like rain today, with the events lately--rain seems appropriate. It has been a long week to have been a holiday week. Some people are happy, some are sad, and I think most are in between. It must be the seasons changing...
I did have something to say... I hope it doesn't hurt anybody's feelings, but if so, oh well, as I have been told "life isn't always fair", I am really tired of snobby people. I know that I am not an angel by any means, but I do my best to consider other people's feelings. Once you say something or do something to someone it is hard to take it back, if that is even possible.
They say when you don't know what to do, don't do anything...and try to just do the best you can. Just my thought for the day!!!

Roller Coaster!
Love is like a roller coaster!
Pretty as a circus poster....
Would you pay for a day at the fair?
I would like to sit in the very last car, just hold on
to the bar, just put my hands up in the air...
Life can be such a scream if you let it...

Ready to Post!
Well, I know am a little bit behind on my postings... so this post will go to both blogs. Things have been very, very hectic around here... I almost forgot what my computer looked like. Today is our youngest son's 21st Birthday. I wished him Happy Birthday and gave him the same advice on age as I did our oldest son.
Our youngest granddaughter was one yesterday, her papaw called and wished her happy 1st birthday, of course she could only listen and make some ramblings, my report was that she was waving, dancing and reading the paper upside-down.

You know, age is a funny thing...from birth to death...not to be morbid....so many things can happen to you and all of those around you that you love so much...in just a blink... This brings me to a saying, I may have already posted this, but I am not sure....(age)...." No One Is Exactly Like You-- Think of what what the world would have missed had you not been born!"
Well, this Nana is signing off...more to come, I can tell that all who read my postings are elated, just kidding. Everyone, enjoy you day, tomorrow will come quickly.

Forgiveness
Sometimes it is better to ask for forgiveness, rather than for permission.
Pain is part of life and you must not let it blind you!

All about Me
As you can see I already have another blogsite, this one will be a little different.
It will be a little more private, but also public so that people can get to know me as a person, and individual with special thoughts and feelings my very own.
