    I wasn't looking for the, "Oh please Joey, don't leave us" thing. I'm just very hurt over how the 3 people that were my friends would attack me because I'm a Republican. I never said anything bad about Obama or Democrats. I even wished Ob...

    Friday, January 16, 2009 | A Happy story

    4 years ago @ 5:10 pm I gave birth to my owen. He is the greatest little boy any mom could ask for he is caring, funny, smart, so creative, he says the greatest one liners, he is bashful and outgoing, he is a protector of his sisters. I woke him up at midnight to tell him happy birthday and I surprised him with his cake that I had been working on(I will post pictures later), and he just snuggled ...

  • ONE YEAR AGO TODAY

    Wednesday, April 1, 2009 | A Happy story

    My Dear friends: I cannot help but reflect today on the things that happened to me last year. Because today is a VERY important day for Colleen and myself. On February 17th of last year my big toe, second toe and a third bone were removed from my right foot. I was in a very grim mood for a long time. I was restricted to no weight bearing on my right foot, and was forced to use a walker, I felt li...

  • I SAW BRICE!

    Friday, October 23, 2009 | A Happy story

    I saw my baby boy Brice this morning!  Had Kala not been so strong and so constant in her visits/gifts/miracles, I would not have believed.  But I know I saw my son this morning.  This is the first time he's come without Kala.  (He's only come to me once before).  I was looking out the window across the meadow.  The wind was blowing slightly and the trees wer...

    Saturday, November 21, 2009 | A Happy story

    Heading out shortly for a fun time with friends.  Going bowling, then dinner, then card games.  Guess the meds have kicked in, I'm feeling pretty good today. 
    Monday got her cast off and is doing much better.  She's even being nice to Maui once again. 
    Roger has had great success with his new fireplace insert invention, so he's a happy camper too.
    Looks like we...
