Goodbye 2010! Hello 2011!

     Here we are, once again, waiting patiently, or maybe not so patiently, for this old year and all it's good and bad to leave us and herald in the 2011 with high hopes and higher expectations.
      I know in my own life, I have now started on the second year of being unemployed, the second year of fighting SSDI for what I have a right to (since I have paid in for it all these years), many years of hoping I would begin feeling better instead of worse, but to be perfectly honest this last year has brought me more joy & happiness that it has pain & sorrow. I have a wonderful man who has now been a part of my life for going on 10 years and I love him more with each passing day. He has stood by me through my health problems, even though he can't possibly understand it all, but there he stands, helping me, lifting my spirits when I need it the most. I was blessed with a new granddaughter who was 2 months premature but she is the toughest itty bitty baby I've ever seen. She has blossomed and grown and is amazing! I have parents who love me. I have sons who love me and stand by me. So yes, 2010 had it's share of trials but I've still been blessed in so many ways. Look at all the blessings I have in the old & new friends I have re-connected and connected with on Face Book. I have discovered so many people who have the same or similar health problems who have offered comfort, advice, guidance, prayers and a should to cry on when I needed one. All in  all my year could have been much worse than it was.
     Now I'm ready to bring on a new year with all the good from last year and with continuing hopes & prayers for us all.
     May your new year be filled with... Joy, Love & Laughter! May you be blessed with good health, prosperity, & above all...a sense of gratitude for all the blessings in your life.

Letter to Santa


Dear Santa,
I know I'm running out of time,
To get my list to you.
You're loading up your sleigh right now
And hitching reindeer, too.

What I want for Christmas
Really isn't just for me
It's a gift for everyone
For our Mankind family

Most would love to have it
To share with one another,
The gift of unconditional love
And peace between all brothers.

That is my Christmas wish this year,
And all the years to come,
Until we all can live in Peace
And give love to everyone.
