This week is supposed to be a week of snow and the weathermen so far are right on!!! I was dreading a week of snow and then I looked outside and the snow was those big beautiful flakes and I almost changed my mind... And then it started coming down so fast those big beautiful flakes aren't so beautiful anymore! I hate driving in snowy weather because of other drivers!!! Drivers that think snow tires or 4 wheel drive means drive as fast as you can hit the ice lose control and smash the other cars when you slide out of control! Such Fun... I need a fun T-Shirt therapy for that! I love this T-Shirt!!! LOL This past week I was able to go to my Uncle Jo's funeral and see family that I hadn't seen for a while. My family is a little dysfunctional!!! (We fit right in with the rest of the world!) We have people that have been so hurt and distanced themselves from others in the family that were there and it was so good to see them again! I am hoping that it is time to heal and love each other again. My motto is perfect for this healing... (I stole it from Scarlett O'Hara!) Tomorrow is another day! We can't do anything about the past... Everyday we wake up is a new beginning!!! I am going to do the best I can everyday!!! Part of the dysfunction of our family is not allowing each other to have different belief systems, That is hard for me to understand because my family kids, siblings etc have several different belief systems! I wouldn't have a family if I let that happen!!! I of course just started singing the song What the world needs now is love sweet love!!! (Hey it wasn't a commercial jingle!!! It is usually a commercial jingle that goes into my mind!!! Oh wait... Here it is!!!!

The past little while I have been having some computer problems. The first problem being that I gave my daughter my laptop because she needed one for work. The next problem being that my old laptop (from a decade ago!!!) wouldn’t hold a charge and started over heating! Ugh! I have now borrowed a laptop from a very accomplished computer engineer (my ex) that is updated and working great!!! (Thanks John!) So I am once again back to blogging!!! Yesterday was a very interesting day... I went to my grandson's birthday party up in Cache Valley and saw the home they have just moved into with a really awesome dog run! My cute little grandson is 4 years old! (How did that happen?!?!) On my way down to see them there was a plane crash right next to the highway! There were emergency vehicles there and on there way to the accident. Everyone of course was slamming on their brakes and they ended up closing the highway! The amazing thing was that no one was killed! I was a little delayed getting to the birthday party and when I arrived my little grandson came running out of the house to see me! (Grandkids are truly wonderful!!!) We had a wonderful dinner that my son helped cook! (Way to go Jon!!! A real man helps in the kitchen!) I saw the kids new bedrooms that they love! and chatted for a little bit! And then the fun came!!! My grandson, Tagger, started unwrapping his presents... He is very much into Batman right now and whenever he received a present with a batman logo on it he immediately put it on! He received a batman shirt, hat, gloves, and socks!!!! Off came his clothes and on went the batman clothes!!! He is such a cutie!! Then there was a tractor and truck cake to eat that he had already showed me the second I arrived!:) After that the nerf gun war commenced with all three of my darling grandkids and their friends! Nicole, their mom, quickly grabbed the bucket of 300 nerf gun bullets and hid it so there wouldn't be quite so many bullets to find and clean up! After a fun birthday party was the long and stressful drive home! Yesterday was a day for accidents! Thankfully not mine!!! T-shirt therapy today is about grandkids! They bring a warm glow of love to my heart! Last night mom and I got up several times during the night and at 3 in the morning even decided it was time to have a diet coke! (Anytime is diet coke time at our house!!!) After our interesting night I thought for sure I would sleep in until afternoon. When I woke up in the morning I looked at my phone and was so proud of myself for waking up at a earlier hour than I had anticipated!!!! I went into the kitchen and picked up a little and of course got a diet coke!!! That is when I noticed that the clocks on the appliances showed a much later time than my phone!!! What is going on... Lol that is when I realized that today was the day to Fall Back to Standard time!!! LOL Oh well, I got to have my delusion of being an almost early riser for at least a half hour!!!! ;)
