"SPEAK YOUR MIND AND RIDE A FAST HORSE"

Bless Me Blog-Father...

for I have sinned.  It has been 2 months and one week since my last confession blog entry.  I haven't even been reading any!  Just an occasional peek at a few.  Blogging just doesn't hold my interest like it once did.  I try really, REALLY hard and I do think about it a great deal, but never quite make it here.  So many of my old blog buddies don't write any more and some of them are on FaceBook, so we keep in touch there.  That's not the same.  FB is a whole different ball of wax and shouldn't replace blogging, by any means. 

So, I'm here today but might not be here again for quite awhile.  Who knows.My life is so helter skelter.  I have no real (or reasonable) routine and it's hard for me to function and accomplish much of anything this way.  But I can't seem to find my groove.  And every time I try to establish some sort of routine to my days, if it gets interrupted, I get all flustered or even resentful of the intrusion.  Like....what the hell does it matter?!?  I'm hopeless. LOL

I do have some amazingly good news to share! Which is one reason I have been drawn to my blog. I am getting together with  2 of my bestest buddies in the whole wide world in March!!  My Senior Moments, Terri T and I will be flying to San Diego to spend a week with Poolie!  We met in the World of Blog and have had several get-togethers.  Always an adventure and always great fun.  I can't wait to spend time with them and I can't wait to just get away from it all for a few days! 

I will also be heading to Alaska for a month at the end of April or first part of May.  Haven't got that pin pointed yet, as it is pending pinning down the dates of a trip Chuck will be taking in the spring.  He'll be going to Wyoming with Dixie.  A guy he knows has a cattle ranch there and he wants to be in on Spring Round-up and Branding.  If he had a bucket list, I guess doing something like this would be right at the top, so good for him :).  I'm just enjoying a peaceful easy feeling of knowing that he doesn't mind my month long trip to Alaska again.  Last year was so awesome and this year will be even better! 

I think for now, I need to get off of here and go to some X-Mas decorating and stuff.  Chuck has been busy all week getting ready to have Dixie and her buggy in a local Christmas parade and so he only got all my decorations out today.  Puts me a bit behind schedule for trying to get my X-Mas spirit mustered up, but better late than never!  TTFN, if anyone is out there!  LOL

  1. Wow, good for you with the trip to see your blogging friends! Sounds amazing, but what sounds even more amazing is going to Alaska for a month - what a dream come true! I can only imagine the wildlife that you will encounter and the sights you will see!

    I'm really happy for you. And, I have been blogging again.... it feels so good to write when you have more to say than a "status update" and a bunch of real-life friends who do not understand the concept of commenting back and forth and actually having a conversation. LOL!

    I love you dear heart and think of you often. You are my kind of girl- I'm so happy that you are in that phase of your life where it seems as though you are doing some things for YOURSELF! Live it girl, have fun, laugh often, and don't forget to take pictures so I can live vicariously through you :)

  3. Hey Peggy ~ I've never blogged before and always wanted to, so here I am! I do know how you're feeling about being all over the place and not getting a routine down. I feel the same way! Trying to recover from my amputations which all started in July this year and I'm sick of it but its not all healed yet! Grrrhhh! I'm so limited in what I can and can't do yet!!! It really drives me crazy! AND I'm going through menopause AGAIN? Like...oh come on! I did this in '92 when I had my hysterectomy ~ why Mother Nature must I have to do this AGAIN?? Peggy, you and I have had the discussion about our 'middle of the night shopping sprees'! LOL you with lots of yarn for projects and me with fabric for projects I only hope to do in my lifetime!!?? Geeze...it's like ok - where is the real me? where did I go? or what happened to her/me? Is this going to get better? or worse? or God forbid, stay this way?? and why is all this going on in the first place?? I was fine...why did you have to go and jumble it all up?? LOL, ya think I need a straight jacket??

  4. I'm reminded of a woman I knew who had not been to confession for years. If her mother had not recommended a different priest, she might never have gone back.

    I give you the same answer that compassionate priest gave her:

    Welcom back!

  5. So glad to see a new blog; I hope you will continue to blog...it's so much easier to tell the whole story and even embellish when you have a blog to write in....
    Can't wait to see you in March...and I can't believe we are going to be together again!
