I am Blessed! February 16th, 2010

Been a while since I was here...
Kind of busy getting situated in my new home, new town and new school for Logan. I love the area, not so sure about the people. They are a peculiar bunch...a poorer type people than I've ever lived around, and very suspicious, as well. Not sure if I'll ever warm to them, or them me, but I really don't care one way or the other. I'm here because I want to be, and unlike most people here, I do own my home, free and clear. SO, regardless if I'm welcomed or not, this IS my home now.

Uncle RZ died last week, February 8th, and was buried February 12th.
Aunt Honey had a heart attack yesterday, February 15th, and is on a heart pump tonight as I write. Her situation is dire.
Daddy is declining, rapidly.
My baby son is in Iraq.
My eldest son has "divorced" me.
My daughter is shacked up with a loser.
My step-daughter is struggling to make her and her son a good life.
My husband is working out of town, 7 hours away.
...And yet, I am so incredibly thankful for all that God has so generously blessed me with! For the first time in my life, I am HAPPY and I feel FREE! I am finally where I belong..."among the wildflowers..." as Tom Petty sings...

Life is finally VERY good:)
