memorial day weekend

This month we were suppose to have a family reunion, but we had to cancel it.
I went to my son's place and spent the nite and him and his wife brought me home.
It was a nice visit. I came home because Paul had to work tomorrow. I have vacation until thursday and I will be going back to work.
I'm still not doing to well since Layne had pass away. I try to hide from my kids and grand-kids.
I know that time will tell. I will be a happy person again. I always wonder about my mother how she felt when My dad died. She was full of sorrow all these years. I used to see her cry at times when I took my kids to see her. I really wanted my kids to know her and their cousins.
I wish that my grand-kids would have know her. I know that she would love my grand-kids, Like I Love them. She would show them how to make fry-bread, just like she did Janalea.
I hope everyone in this world are safe and happy.
all my prayer goes out to the men's and women's that are in the service to keep us safe and being a free country,
I better go now because my daughter is going to be here in a few minutes.

May 2009

Hello everyone. I have been trying to write in my blog since My Layne has passed away.
I feel like my happy days have stop. I keep thinking back to that day April 11.2009.
Maybe if I was home when he had his attack, maybe I would've help him some how. I feel so bad that I never told him I love him that day. I feel like this is just a dream and he will be standing there asking what is for dinner or help me make a list of our grocery shopping list, while I cut coupons. He really, really like to shop with coupons and he always want to keep the receipt from the last shopping , to compare the saving. My heart is not into coupons cutting or shopping. I have gone back to work and my work keeps me busy so I'm not thinking about Layne. We had our life planned out and places to go.
I feel like I'm a zombie at times.
I love my kids very much. They have been strong for me and help me to get my life back in order, I want to Thank my daughter Janalea for letting me stay with her and her family. Even thou you have a family of your own and your putting me up and taking me to the bus stop and taking me to the apt. to feed my birds. I love you for all the things you have done for me.
I want to thank my Son Paul for letting me stay with him and his family one the weekend.
Thank you Paul for cooking for me and letting me watch TV. thank you for bring me home and just being there for me.
this is all for today.

hello

it sure has been awhile since I have written in my blog. First off, I alway forget my password and so forth. lol
I had a terrible week this week. I just lost my best friend, my love, my man. I had been with my significant other for quite a few years. maybe 17 years or so. I having a terrible time right now. My whole life just fell under and it will be quite a while before I feel better about myself.
The day before Easter my daughter and I went shopping for last minuter Easter stuff. I got dropped off and came inside and found my significant other passed away. we had a memorial service for him up at South Mountain over looking the valley and be had a BBQ. That was what he wanted. He will be missed very much and was loved. I know that hes in a better place now and happy. I know that we would want me to go on with my life, and fofill our dreams we had.
In fact the first one is coming up in may. I know he would have been loved by everyone. He was such a forgiven person and he had so much love in his heart.
I will try to keep up with my blog........ I know hes laughing at me about my password......
thank you for everyone that reads my blog.

Christmas Eve

Hello, Everyone out there, is everyone watching out for Santa Watch, to see if hes here in the States????? I bet all the little kids are going to have sleepless nite.
I remember when my kids your very little and we used to watch for Santa to see if he has arrived in Utah or Arizona and if he was close by, that means bed time. Time to put out the cookies and Milk for Santa Clause. Those are happy memories and more.
My kids always get up in the morning with all the excitement with all the glee of what Santa had left for them under the tree. Our tradition was to wake everybody up and make home make hot chocolate with Marshmellows and we open all the present. We than have more coco's and cookies and light breakfast to last us until Christmas dinner around 12:00 pm.
I guess, we all have our own tradition and I think that is all kool.
I got off work around 5 pm and decided to go out and by the last minute presents, but the place we wanted to go was close, so we ended up at Wal-greens. Man, it was sure busy and a bee. Target was the place we wanted to go. Oh, well.
I cannot wait to see my grand-kids in the morning when they come to my house for christmas unwrapping. Right now we are watching Christmas Movies.
I just wanted to Wish everyone a MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR.
well, I need to go and finish my wrapping.

My Present

Guess what I got for Christmas this year?????????????? Give up, Huh, HUH.
I got mp3 player and I'm having so much fun with it. In the beginning it was so hard to figure out how to download music, trying to record Freddy Fender music and other aritist, and playing with the radio. It could be lots of when we figure it out. I must have been such a good, good girl to get a mp3 player.
It will help me when I,m walking, and being on the bus. It won't make the trip such a long time. It will give something else to do beside reading. Don't get me wrong, I love to read and now I can listen to music while I do that.
FUN, FUN, FUN. I FELL LIKE A LITTLE KID RIGHT NOW. YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My son Paul and I made a road trip to Utah, Mexican Hat.
We left around 5:30 Wednesday morning and by 7:00 am we were in Flagstaff eating breakfast at Denny's. After that we headed our to Utah. We pass a few very small town or just the name of the town along the way. Just about around noon'ish or so we are now in Kayenta, AZ at this point we are still in AZ. Now, after pit stop and so we left again. This time, again heading to Utah. We stop at the visitor center and took pictures and bought stuff for families. Next, we went to Gouldings and camping area. The hospital that the kids were born is no longer there. It's made into something. I just took some pictures of it. We that took lots of picture of the Valley. We than headed out to Mexican Hat Utah, Of course, we have to pass the Monument Valley Pass at last on our journey to Mexican Hat. We finally arrived around 3:00pm or so. We just drove around to find if we can see anyone we know. At this time we didn't find anyone Yet, so we decided to eat lunch and start again. Everyone was at Kayent at the flea Market.
But, we didn't have too. Margaret find us, from there we went out to my mother place and my sister Mary's place. We visited with brother Leroy and his Daughter Victoria. Took Pictures.
We than arrived at my Sister's place, but no was home but( Boy) Onassic. We, just left a message that we are looking for his parents. Well, after that we called it a nite, well not just yet. we we went to Goulding to shop with Margaret first. Then to the Motel. What a Day we had. lol
Next, morning we got up at6:00 or 7:00 am. We went to Cafe to eat breakfast and lo and behold. My sister's showed up with there spouse, looking for us. It was a nice visit after all these years. Just took our time coming home. It was such a nice visit but sad to leave.

That way I won't have a hard time log-in. LOL HUH

update

hello everyone. It has been a busy the last 2 month. Some happy moment and some sad moments.
All in all we all have gone on with out lives to the best of our ability.
Being of this month was Octoberfest which we take all 4 kids to it. They have lots of fun just mingling with everyone at the Octoberfest. I hope they all had fun.
The follow weekend was spent at the Arizona State Fair. It is getting very expensive but fun. We usually take only the 2 oldest girls. I belive that they had a blast like we did. I just love to see there face when they are on the rides. I belive as the years goes by and they will lose interest in going to the Fair with us. So I need to catch every moment with them.
I love all my Grandkids with all my heart. Sometimes when I don't see them I feel so lonely and sad that I just want to Cry.
Well. this year I'm not making halloween outfits for my little one. Yes, Yes, My daughter and I went out and bought the costume this year. They are going to be all deck out for the night. Hope they recieve lots of good candies.
Well. I need to go and get ready for another day
