Got to start somewhere!

Woohoo, I am bloggin now!!!

Do you ever just ding the clock one more time and then again and wish you didn't have to go to work today with the weather getting cooler and you stayed up too late last night?  Well, I don't have to do that any more.  It is just killing The Mr. to still have to go to work :)  As of a couple of months ago, I am a stay-at-home nonnie with enough plans and projects swirling around in my mind to last me about 79 years.  A new chapter in my life is about to be written. 

The first month I played with the grands and great-grand and cooked and ate and cooked and ate.  It was great and I need larger pants!!  It was the first time in over 25 years I have been able to have quality time with our girls and grands and not worry about going to work.  Don't get me wrong, I loved my work and wouldn'thave changed it for the world, but I plan to enjoy retirement just as much. 

The second month was a totally different story.  I had heard of shingles, but I had no idea what it really was.  Well, I found out first hand and can tell you that is one bad boy.  Pain is all I am going to say!!!!

Seems like I need a little sister time.  Trouble is, she is in Oregon.  Nothing to do but pack up the SUV and head west!  More on that later.
