Time Flies Even Faster Than Before

Goodness, I thought time was flying in an earlier post. Now it's been nearly a month since my last post & it seems like yesterday.
The "significant snowfall" I reported was gone by Christmas. We did get enough to say that we had a White Christmas, but that really might be stretching it!
Christmas was a beautiful time to be with our family, all four generations. It brought tears to my eyes to see Dave's 95-year-old mother holding Jillian, our 7-week-old grandbaby.
Lots of remembering went on between Dave & I after everyone left for the day. And some speculating what the new year will bring.
I think this year my birthday might bring some trauma as I turn 60. Mind you, 30, 40 and even 50 had no effect whatsoever. But I'm already feeling like 60 is going to hit me hard! Oh well, I'll get over i t.
Hope your Chrsitmas was glorious and 2008 will be a bright shining star that brings glory to our Lord & Savior. Thanks be to God for all the good and merciful things He has done for our family in 2007...Praise Be To God!!!

Significant Snow

I think winter has arrived. As much as I get tired of the snow at the end of winter, the first snow falls are truly beautiful to me. But from a window view...give me a blazing fire, a cozy blanket & a good book, not a drive to Ft. Wayne or even the 6 miles to work. We woke up this morning to 4 or 5 inches. Just enough to cover everything, but not so much to make travel too treacherous
We've discovered a way to help end the winter blahs....take a cruise! Can hardly wait to go in a couple of months!!!
