Happy Winter

I have relaxed so much over this past year, and I'm enjoying life so much more.  After getting a nasty virus last spring after a hectic year, I was forced to slow down and relax to recuperate. Three months, with a relaxing trip to Florida with the kids, and life is much more doable. I've gained a lot of weight, but now with Weight Watchers and a better lifestyle, I'm doing pretty well.
I always had such big ideas about how strong I was going to be since my husband died (and before), but now I realize that strength isn't necessarily about accomplishing big things, but accomplishing happiness and peace.
