Well I guess I have to, again, apologize for staying away for so
long. I want to thank a dear friend ( you know who you are) for
keeping in touch with me and making me stop and smell the roses!

...so here I am stopping
and smelling the roses sort of speak. I have been so caught up
in my life and work without realizing there are true friends that
really miss me and would love to hear from me even if is a quick
e-mail, a phone call or a visit. So I will follow up, starting
with my friends here. I love you all
Now life in general...I've gone through my ups and down because
in order to gain I've had to sacrifice. Lately I have been
taking inventory of the things in my life not materials things
but emotional; and have discover I am still in love with my husband of 25 years and still enjoy being with him, he still makes me laugh like a school girl, and still makes me feel like a woman.

The reason I mentioned this is because in my
busy life I've taken for granted what really matters. We all need
a good foundation to stand on, a strong arm to hold on to when we
are about to fall and a soft shoulder to cry on when we are at our
most vulnerable moment, and in my hubby I have all that and more.
Time to get to work, I'll check in a little later...
my love to all of you...
HELLO JACKI!!!!
Glad to see you are still alive and kickin'!! Everyone needs some time to discover what is really important....or REdiscover.
Sorry but I must go out in the rain and enjoy life myself. Be happy and I will see you soon.
Bless you my child and have a merry Christmas.
Your Friend the Raven.
