Hi To All,
Can I tell you how happy I am? I could not be any happier, I smile a lot now, I am learning, I am experiencing so much. School started this past Monday, I am going to school to be a Certified Nursing Assistant. I thought the first day, Oh Dear Lord what have I done, it was such a fast paced class, so much information being handed out and homework, oh my. I start and end each class with an exam. Now I think I am already in the swing of it, I have read ahead and done the worksheets and homework. I have read the next days chapters and know what to expect. I give my first presentation next week and then we go do hands on clinical work. They have two facilities they use and I am all excited. I was always a hands on type of girl for learning anything. So ladies life is very fast paced, I will have three hours of homework each night, I love it, can you tell?
Larry and I have gone to a Maple Sugaring and enjoyed walking in the woods and enjoying nature.
I got to go to a rodeo practice on Sunday, what fun, I entered five pictures into competition and am having the time of my life. Larry and I are enjoying our time together.
My sister Nancy was in town for four days to celebrate my brother Paul turning 50. Wow is he getting old. It was really nice to gather for a fun family event.
The best news of all is today is St. Patty's Day and I had a new nephew born this morning. (My oldest brother Jimmy who passed aways daughter), My Sister Dotty (not sister in law because we love her so much) well their daughter Robyn and her husband Terry now have a beautiful baby boy who shall be called James Daniel O'Leary. All are doing well. I am so proud happy for them. I know Jimmy will be watching over them all.
My Love to All!

Rested and Happy
I am alive and well. Life is so good. I am rested and happy. I have started my new philosophy on life and that is to live each day to its fullest. I spent yesterday out taking photos. What fun it was. I allowed myself four hours to just drive around, look at life, stop at my leisure and become one with myself. You ought to try it some time. The inner feeling of peace and calming experience can be so rejuvenating. I have manged to also start and finish two books, who knew one could read a book from start to finish in such a short time. Now it is time for me to hit the real books. I have three tests to get thru to make sure I am really ready for the tougher stuff coming my way.
I am proud of Larry who put on a one man show at the Stoughton Library last night. He did a forty minute slide show presentation with music and comments throughout it all about his trip to Quebec. He answered many questions in the end and had them all eager to travel there to see for themselves how pretty a place it is. I myself cannot wait to go back there with him in May.
Travel again, hum that is what was missing from our lives, free time, down time. We have many trips planned so far for this year. It only reinforces that we are sole mates and enjoy each others company. We are not one of those couples whose kids grow up and leave and they sit at home together wondering what to talk about or how to interact with each other and find out they have nothing in common. This week end is Maple Sugaring Time at Brookwood Farms, you bet we will be there capturing it all.
As you may notice I am happier than ever and oh so content.
Alas ladies my sewing machine is banished to the basement for now. In the next two months I will not have the time to do any sewing by machine. I do have some hand projects at the ready when I start having withdrawal symptoms. I have even found my long lost project; a scarf I had started way back in the days of Fabric Place opening, I may get to finish it yet. I will get back to sewing and quilting it is in my blood and will resurface, besides I have at least five kits waiting for me to start, let alone projects left to be quilted. Do not think that quilting is over for me. At this time though it is taking back seat for a short while.
Stop to smell the flowers, to listen to life, to follow your heart.
