To all my DA Friends!!
This is the day the Lord has made.
Let us rejoice and be glad in it.....~Psalms 118:24
May all my dear friends and their families have a beautiful and glorious day!.......Sandy


















I know it has been awhile since I updated my journal and felt it was time to do so! There have been some changes in my life the past month and a half that has made my time here on DA very limited and I wanted to explain that I am not ignoring anyone,I have just been so VERY busy! As a lot of you know my husband retired from his job in May...not an easy decision for him to make but with his health problems we decided it was time.Well what you think will work out on paper doesn't always work out in reality,and we found ourselves with more month than money! So to try and make ends meet I decided to go back to work. I haven't worked in 20 years so this has not been an easy transition for me. Years ago I worked in the Hotel business in the housekeeping department I was the assistant manager at a large hotel chain,so I decided to try this work again,but what you can do at 38 is much different at 58.Anyone who has done this kind of work will know just how hard it is( I lost 22 pounds in the first 25 days! ) my old bones are really getting a work out for sure!!I've been so exhausted when I get home that I just haven't been doing much at my computer and I'm afraid it will be awhile until I get adjusted to this new routine! I SO VERY MUCH MISS EVERYONE and you all are always in my thoughts!

Now I would like to express my gratitude for all of the lovely comments, gifts, journal features and cake badges I received on my birthday October 25th,I think I thanked everyone personally but just in case I missed anyone... I THANK YOU FROM MY HEART! You made my day so much brighter and I will always remember that!
Much &
You are always in my heart!
Sandy
