I have always wanted to keep a journal, in fact... I probably could find 6 or 7 different types of "journaling" in my house, where I wrote for a few days, and then never got back to it. Story of my whole life. I have done Bible journaling, Scripture writing, several other kinds of little journaling projects. Several attempts at keeping a blog... So, here I am again, I'm going to try again. It's kind of like dieting, I can go on a diet and lose weight, be proud, and then, the light switches off in my head and I am out of control again. There must be a name for my type of personality. I need to think about that one.
So, now my two grandchildren are married. Matthew to Kayla and Allison to Alex. I have two great-grandchildren, Reagan and Charlotte. What loves they are. Ellis is still deaf, still loves to fry food and has a painful back. Marcus is single and conflicted, Randy won't speak to Ellis and TIm is sporadic. Heather is taking care of Freddie Walker during the week, but loving on her grandchildren. Life, in other words, just keeps going on.
Thankfully, I am retired. I was so tired when I retired and I am so happy I was able to retire at 62. Now I can do the things I love to do. I am truly blessed and don't even know why I am so blessed and others have so little. I should pay attention to that last sentence.
I am going to try again to do this journaling thing. I kind of like the way it relaxed me and makes me think about what is going on with me and mine. A chance to reflect on decisions, opportunities, responsibilities, etc. and also to remember and recognize my blessings.
