My oh my! I didn't post anything in January! Well, I can tell you the month started off with a new year 2008! And, the very next day, Lydia turned 23. And then, Phil had a birthday and Tabby turned 39! And, Aunt Donice & Marcus had birthdays. I did manage to tell my daughter happy birthday - but I was late for everyone else! Maybe it's because I had a house full.... Maybe it's because I failed to reorder the calendar refill & didn't have it in my face.... maybe there are lots of excuses. But, nevertheless, January has come and gone!
One thing about January is that it was never quiet. We had 10 people (my step-son, Terry & his family) living in our house beginning on January 5th - with 1 bathroom! 3 of those 10 people were under the age of 3. They managed to get into lotion, mashed potatoes, nail polish, toilet paper, Pine Sol, etc., etc., etc. It was a challenge to get ready for school, work & day care every morning too. But, on the nice side, a "Merry Maid" cleaned a lot & cooked supper for me many of the days. As of February 1st, they moved into their own place. I miss my "Merry Maid" but the thing I miss the most is being greeted at the door by my grandchildren saying "NANA! Yeah!" - They really had a way of making me feel like they were glad I was home.
Amazingly, all the adults worked really good together. How did we do it? By the grace of God!
Guess I'm done updating January - hopefully I can update February soon. :-) Luv to you all!

So glad you updated your blog! You are such my favorite one! I am not sure where Feb. went either. I love you so much and have been blessed seeing you model Christian love in a way it was not modeled for us.
Hey girl,
I'm glad you're back.
Thanks for all your sweet comments!
WOW, you did have busy month, and you are a real trooper.
You may get "mother or nana of the year!!" :)
Glad to hear you so upbeat, positive, and enjoying life!!
Thanks for checking out my blog, sweet one! **hugs tightly** I'm glad to see you have a blog on here, too.
I wanted a blog that could spread my love for God & Jesus without being preachy and pushy, you know? But I also wanted folks to see and understand that even when you are a happy person, there is always more happiness that can be gained by living a life as close to Jesus as possible.
Love you bunches and hope to see you soon! Aren't we blessed to be working at home in our jammies???!!! =)
Glad you're back. Hey! Curtis came by today and told me that you were working from your home now. I think that is great. I work from home also, but the difference in me and you is, I don't get paid for it :( and you do get paid. I think you are great and I am happy for you.
Ruthie, I'm glad you are blogging. Love you very much.
