Where Have I've Been?

My Daughter Marta, said to me today, "Mama, you haven't written on your Blog for a long time, how come?"  No I haven't...  So I thought about that....  and .. When I was in Arizona a couple of weeks ago, my son-in-law made the same comment to me, that I hadn't written in my Blog for sometime.   I was surprised about that, as I had no idea he was reading my blog.  So I thought about that....

It's been about 6 months since I last wrote something, maybe I haven't written because I felt I haven't really had anything to say, or maybe I'm just tired.... or maybe I just felt why bother.  But after thinking about this, I thought  OK, lets see if I can still remember how to do this, and lets see if I really have anything to say.

So what have I've been doing these past 6 months...  I guess I'll just put down a quick overview...to get started again, or at least to see if I do have something to say, and if I do, does anyone want to read it or hear about it??

I have passport, so I have done some traveling..

 My sweetheart and I went to Hawaii on a 14 day cruise, which was wonderful and very relaxing.  Sailing days on the ocean blue, just him and I, no cares, no to do list, just enjoying life and leisure time.  Heaven..

 I went to Germany just after Thanksgiving with my daughter Marta, for two weeks, to visit my first granddaughter Shawna and my 5 great grandchildren.  That was a dream come true. Saw wonderful sights and lots of history, and my grandchildren were so good to me.

We took another cruise, this time we went with my Daughter Marta and her husband to the Caribbean, that too was fun, relaxing and beautiful.  I can see why people love living on islands, to have a home on a tropical island as a get away, with the ocean out your front door, to walk on the beach in the moon light, peaceful feelings,.

Last we went to Arizona for 10 days for a nice visit with our daughter Ann and her husband, saw some grandkids there and 5 more great grandbabies. Did some projects, to get a head start on Christmas, and did lots of visiting.  My sweetheart was busy with our son-in-law doing male projects, like working on a car etc.

In November my sweetheart had another birthday and he reminded me that he was getting older and then I too had another birthday in February and I reminded him that I was getting older too.  When we were in Arizona we celebrated our 59th wedding anniversary, our daughter had a special dinner for us and all the grandkids and great grandkids came for this celebration.  This was nice and special as they all gave us hugs and fussed over us and made us feel loved.

I had another great grandson born this week to my grandson Jared and his sweet wife Emily and I will have two more coming in just a few months.

As I think about these last 6 months, I might have thought I had nothing to write about, but in the end I guess I really did, I just didn't take the time.   Now that's a sad thought, for when you reach this time in one's life, time becomes very precious.
