Well I don't really have any pictures to put on the blog. I haven't taken any because it has been too much work lately and anyway I don't think anyone reads or even looks at my blog so I guess thats good, I can put on my blog anything I want and not get hassled by anyone for being to free with information or not free enough or whatever. So I will take this opportunity to thank my family for putting up with me these last 6 or 7 months. I have felt so down and sluggish, kinda like an old slug on a rock and so have probably not done any planning or haven't helped people with kids or projects as should be expected by a mom or grandma, but I just feel tired and sad. I miss Tim and I know his children miss him and my daughter misses him and sometimes it just feels as if life stinks. I know this is not really true when I count my blessings, but right now I just want to wallow in self pity and be miserable. Come tomorrow - January 1, 2010, I will perk right up and get busy with stuff. (new years resolutions!) So this is my complaining and whining blog for the last day of 2009. My house is a mess, I need to clean up a bunch of junk, I want to park my car in the garage and not scrape my windows and I want to know where all my junk is. So waa waa waa, boo hoo hoo! Tomorrow will be a new day, but today I just want to crawl in my bed and be sad. Love Mom

Oh Edie...you're so funny! I don't believe you've just been a slug. You're always busy doing something, but I do know how you feel. Seems like all I've wanted to do is sit at home in my pj's lately. Happy 2010...sorry we missed seeing you guys at Christmas. We took a last minute trip to Canada. Brrrr!!!

Aw, mom! Come on, you know I read your blog! I especially LOVE it when you write personal feelings. Makes me feel normal, and closer to you. However, let me just point out that you're far from a slug! You're always busy watching a grandchild, visiting a child/friend that needs you, calling to check up on someone, running Morgan around, keeping dad in line (Ha ha Ha... you know I love you dad), and the list goes on. I wish I could help you more. You're house may seem like a mess, but it's because it's well used by all your family! It's so comforting to know that your door is always open. I know you miss Tim, we all do. It hurts to think about the loss. But, the Lord is aware of us. He's especially aware Andrea and the kids. They have been blessed with a sensitive and caring mom/Grandma, that will be there no matter what. We will all see this through. There's light at the end of the tunnel. I'm so grateful for the new year! Who knows what joy it will bring. There will always be pain in this life, but if we rely on the Lord and stick together...we'll see it through. Thank you for always being there for me. You're the rock, and sometimes being the rock is a hard place to be (so be sure to have a good cry every now and then!). But, there's no-one better fit for the job. You have a gift. Love you, mom. Hang in there.

P.S. lets have a garage cleaning party!
