I am hoping this blog keeps me in touch with people I have fallen out of touch with and can in a small way be part of their lives and they part of mine. As the new year starts, we as a family are coming off of a great year. My hubby got a new job this year, I continue to work on my masters. A's school year is going well-each year gets better for him (which works wonders for my mood). Qball started kindergarten and of course is the "advanced" child and loves school-these are both stories for another time. We had a wonderful family vacation and in general I am grateful and thankful for everything!
Which is why this time of year always sends me into a tail spin with my yearly follow up doctor visits following my colon surgery 4 years ago. This year I have a couple of extra tests and the pessamist/negative little person that lives in my brain starts to wait for the other shoe to fall. BUT I am determined to not let this control me for the next six weeks and not worry about things out of my control (which is hard to do for one addicted to worrying). Blogging may help me share these worries which are not easy for me to do, showing weakness and vulnerability is not my nature. I am also excited to share fun and sarcastic things which ARE my nature.
I will end this first, long and rambling blog (told you) with a couple of quotes.
Qball-As I am getting dressed for Christmas Eve-"Mom, I love your dress (actually a shirt), it is so sparkly"
Conversation before above shirt was purchased:
A-Mom sure is taking a long time getting groceries
Hubby-She sure is
A-I bet she is getting a shiny new shirt to take the place of her favorite one she burned.
Ahhh how well my boys know me
Ride through life on a creative cycle
Your real vision is immeasurably valuable and I dare you to let it out! Let us all see what you have made real from your dreams and imagination
We are waiting to see...

I love your ramblings! It is a great way to get things out, isn't it. I use it as therapy sometimes, as you will read from my blog I'm sure. Glad to have you among one of my blog friends!
I love your ramblings, too! I can hear your voice when I'm reading them!
I love Sark, too!!
