Per my last post, my Dad is doing well, a little forgetful but much better than he was. My sister came up and stayed with him most the summer, so that helped with my stress immensley.

Lynn and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary Tues., like I say time flies. We are still extremely happy, I’m so blessed to have found him.

Doing some web design again, kinda lost right now it’s been 5 years, remembering everything is a little daunting, but I’ll get it soon.

Still working at the library….great job. Keeps me busy and out of trouble. lol

Family is doing well, grandkids going off to college, working, getting on with their adult lives.

Not sure anyone reads this anymore, but it’s a record for me…..thanks if you are, sorry I’m such a terrible updater.

Dad has lung disease, I’m not sure if it’s copd and emphysema, or if it’s just bronchial asthma. I’m sure it’s the worse of the bunch. He fell in Feb and broke two ribs, he hasn’t been well since. He is on oxygen, and a variety of medication. Up until the last 2 weeks he was doing all his normal things, cooking cleaning, going for groceries going down to visit his friends….now he can’t. It’s so hard because I don’t know if he will ever be able to do any of these things again, he may be home bound and I’m so afraid that his depression will get him. He is 81 years old, he has lived a full life, but it’s just been the last few years that I’ve really gotten to know him, I don’t want to lose him now, but the sadness in his eyes breaks my heart.

I found a wordpress app for my android, thought maybe I’d blog more if I had that. Never seems to be enough time in the day..I know I say that all the time, and I should be able to post everyday of my boring life…(I like it that way), it’s the habit you need to develop right.
I’m hoping that the next few months will bring me back to me, I’m menopausal, which if you are too you understand…anyway I’ve decided to start hormones, bio-identical…so hopefully they will help. I’m tired of feeling like I don’t give a crap about anything…I feel like I’m floating through my life and I need to change that, cause hey I’m not getting any younger.

I was going to let my website go, but I just couldn’t do it. I do need to update it more though, it’s crazy to let it sit stagnant.
October is almost over, thank goodness, my least favorite month, and it’s lived up to it’s bad reputation this year. Lost my baby cat Mia, we think some dogs got her, I found her in the yard not a mark on her. My friend at work lost two members of her family, a neices 3 wk old baby and a nephew. Then a lot of other little disasters. My oldest son had surgery. Plus it’s the anniversary of my mother’s passing, which always is hard. I’m looking forward to Nov., even though that means cold and snow usually.
I’m still working which saves me my sanity. The kids are doing fair, some are doing better than others, but they are ok. Dad is doing ok, he has had some trouble with his asthma, so have I must be some allergens in the air, hopefully that will clear out soon.
We have been trying to spend more time with the kids, so we have been having lunch with them when we go over every other weekend….we will have to figure out something cheaper for this winter since both the boys will be laid off, but I’m sure we can work it out.
I have an android phone, Trev got it for me and I love it, I can text now and that helps me keep in contact with the kids…it’s been great.
Lynn is still working hard, I know that it’s not as easy as it used to be for him. I wish there was a way he could quit and rest, but we can’t live on air unfortunately.
