For the past few months I have been really really happy. Not like I was in the dumps before, but small changes I've made have been paying off and I am loving the higher levels of happy.

I'm not sure that is always true. This time I think I may just be venturing into the too personal... although that never seemed to stop me before. Time to just look after myself, maybe a bit too vulnerable right now.

I think I have had my share of ridiculous posts so we may be in a tie. You may have to share that award.

28 years ago today I lost my paternal grandmother. I can't believe it's been that long because it feels like yesterday. Mom was in law school and Dad was on the road for work but they did come home on the weekend. Two of my brothers were overseas in the service. My baby brother and I were the only ones home with her but I was responsible for taking care of her. I was only 25 and thought I was so grown up...lol

I was honored to do this for her. She took care of us so many times when we were kids. We were very close. In fact we could communicate without speaking - we just knew what the other was thinking. I miss her so very much but she is still with me...I feel her presence every day...

DMW · 10-31-2012, 06:52 PM

God help those people.

What's on my mind... I think I've shared too much here, and occasionally given too much access (awkwardly put, but I can't do better). I'm regulating myself carefully, and guarding my privacy now.

On my mind has been something very similar. Although I find it very helpful in that for the most part there are very few people who know me and the ones that do hopefully understand. Some days I step back and some days I step into it. I find it, for the most part, a good way to work through some of my thoughts.

DMW · 11-01-2012, 05:17 PM

Why do the storms always challenge you?
And follow you...like the blizzards do?
Because you are strong enough to overcome them dear friend.
That is why. God never gives us more than we can handle...cause
he knows what you can handle them...

Better watch out....cause you are pretty darn strong...
You gonna be alright cause...
He won't give you more than you can handle.

Hell member how you walked through that blizzard when
your car broke down...and there was no one to pick you
up...with no gloves or a hat...
You blew through that like it
was butter...shute...(like you had built in snow shoes)
And you came out laughin at it afterwards....
You got a great attitude and you always make me laugh.

You gonna be alright cause...
God already knows how much you have handled
and you come back up and out with more humor in your pocket.

Something today, after many years of pain and confusion, came full circle and was concluded. I am so happy and whole ... still floating in bright light. It is the goodness type of bright light. The burden is gone for all involved.

Thank you, Good Spirit of Light.

My heart is heavy with thoughts of the millions out of power tonight, as it gets colder, and the tens of thousands either out of their homes or with no homes to go back to.

I'm grateful that the Brutal One's company is giving him so many miles. For a new driver, that is rare. So it's a good thing.

However.....I'm also a bit worried when I start hearing things like snow chains and the Colorado mountains and ice. I know he'll be fine but I am a horrible worrier.

Also on my mind is that it means he'll be out two weeks longer than we thought. Which sucks. BUT....it means he'll be home for thanksgiving. YAY!! I was sad that I wasn't going to cook this year but I'm going to be able to. So, I'm planning our meal. Which probably means I'll search and search for new yummy ideas, then end up cooking the same thing I have for 7 years. LOL!

Lived in CO most of my life. He and You have nothing to worry about there. They are used to driving in the snow and they slow down ! Yes, chains are best there in the mountains for trucks. Depending where he's going? It helps from sliding. But also the CDOT will be out in full force if it snows taking care of the roads. I do not believe it is snowing there right now and I believe they are having warm weather. Glad he'll be home for Thanksgiving!

ehhhhh!!

From your fingers to gods ears. He's going from Jersey to Oregon. I'm not sure of his exact route but I'll get it soon. Although if he can't find any fuel in Jersey, he's not gonna be going far.

I hope you're right. The only reason I'm worried is that he hasn't driven in snow. Like......EVER. Until he started this truck driving job, he'd never driven outside of Alabama. So, I'm a little tweaked.

I'm all about Thanksgiving so that part makes me happy :-) Actually, I'm all about any holiday that means cooking a big meal. I probably should have a huge family cause I like to cook big. But usually it goes to waste with only the two of us. So holiday cooking is my excuse to go wild.
