Home Sweet Home

I just got out of the hospital. I have multi blood clots in my lungs, pneumonia and a UTI. I am so thankful to be here. If anyone happens to read this please pray for me. I am so glad to be home.

I am so thankful I am feeling well enough to do things again. I am thankful for my family for being a help these last months, I wouldn't have made it without them. And I am thankful my hair is finally growing a little. 

It's been also a year

This last year has been really hard for me. My health took a big turndown this last summer. My RA was acting up big time so Dr put me on Methotexate again. Well I ended up in hospital for 2 months. My pancreas was only working 50 percent, I got staph that spread though out my body and then I got a blood clot. I had to gain my strength back, so basically I had to learn to walk again after being in a wheelchair for over 5 months. I am driving again after 6 months, that was real strange. It was touch and go for a while, so I thank the Lord I am still here and he is not done with me yet.

Missing my Dad....

Today would have been my Dad's 86th birthday. I am missing him.

Good memories...

Favorite Books for 2013

So many Books so little time

I have read 51 for the year, which is way less than last year. I think I may have forgotten to write down some of the Kindle books I read. Oh well, here is my favorite list for the year!

1) Lady at the OK Corral by Ann Kirschner. I hated history as a kid but love it now :)

2) Three Sisters by Susan Mallery. It is about 3 houses!

3) The Lemon Orchard by Luanne Rice, I love her books. 

4) Sea Glass Summer by Dorothy Cannell. About learning to love and trust again.

5) First Phone Call from Heaven by Mitch Abom. Will make you wonder? 

And my favorite series this year is "The Walk" series by Richard Paul Evans. Makes me want to go for a walk! 

If you have any recommendations for me in 2014 please leave me a comment! Thank You!

So grab a book and read!

Happy Birthday Nicky!

 My youngest grandson Nicholas turned 5 today. I love this little guy to pieces!

Now we are on the 8 month countdown to school!
