Time for a mental vacation

I've been thinking about my post the other day. The one that said I think it can be dangerous to go down memory lane too often, but I want to recant that statement.... I'm pretty sure that is exactly what I need to do for my mental healths sake:) I've been running on high speed now for years, and let's face it, the last 11 years since Bev's death have been the hardest time of my life, with MANY TRIALS, both financial and family.... Oh don't get me wrong there have been just as many, if not more BLESSINGS, such as grandbabies, our dream ranch and a quiet lifestyle I love... But I WANT to go down memory lane, I WANT to remember the good old days so I can reconnect to MY ROOTS... The last 11 years I've been broken and now I have the answer to how I will get fixed...It took last night of staying up most of the night to figure it out, but I did get it.... I got the peace in my mind (FINALLY) about how I am going to go about it.... First off I am going to take the time to get this house in order, closets cleaned out, mud room, scrap booking room etc....I'm going to plan dinners with friends and family, I'm going to visit my Granny K more often, I'm going to take my grandbabies on outings that show them who I am, and give them some good old Norman/Kirchmar/James values, cause we are great people.... I am going to scrapbook my past and go down memory lane doing it.... Remember who I was and what I want to be in the future. Scrapbook my 22 years of daycare, my years with my kids, my parents and Jeff's parents and our whole amazing family... Yes this will be a good time... I lost me somewhere in all the changes in life, but I thank God He showed me last night just what I need to do to get ME back... So I apologize in advance if I can't be where I've been in the past, but I really want to be where God is showing me to be now...

So I leave you with this thought...... Do you like how your life is turning out????? If not make the changes!!!!! Life is short, make sure you are leaving the legacy of YOU to your family... If you have lost YOU, I beg of you, go find yourself!!!!!! Have a VERY BLESSED DAY!!!!

Thank you Lord, that you are the lighthouse that guides me in this Life.
