4 o'clock

Today is Sweetiepie's birthday!

We had a visit from his son and daughter-in-law for his birthday and surprised him with a birthday dinner at Texas Roadhouse and a Rattlers game.

Hartley caught a game bal;

(lucky dog)

They played a special tribute to the 19 fallen Fire Fighters during half time

These are Fire Fighters from all over the state....

it brought tears to our eyes.

This was a tribute to his Dad for his birthday!

Beginning at 4 o'clock and lasting all evening....

it was a special birthday for a special guy!

Habits

Habits.........Yeah, I have a few........

 I crack my knuckles (don't judge)

I'm not proud, but I'll tell ya, it seems to make my hands feel better.

 TRUTH: There is no evidence that proves that knuckle cracking leads to arthritis! HURRAY! 

 This is a new habit........

I gave up Diet Cherry Dr. Pepper...

(haven't had a soda since I was in the hospital in Dec., 

But...now I've replaced it with 

CANDY CRUSH.....

actually, it might not really be a habit but an 

ADDICTION

and probably the worst HABIT of them all......

I love, love, love to crunch ice!!  

I guess it's better than smoking,  but not much..............

At least I'm not a quitter~

I wore this!

I wore these footie socks today.....

and it's a kbillion degrees outside.....

so why do I have on footie socks, you ask.....

because I cannot stand to go barefoot!

I had some oral surgery today.

I have a new dentist, Brian Goodman, D.D.S.

He's awesome!!! 

 If you're looking for a good dentist, he's your man.

I took it easy today, but really, no pain.

Hard for me to believe!

SMOOTH...........

Look at that baby smooth skin!

.......and the flowers are beautiful too!

(ps.  You're probably sick of seeing pictures of Maisy-but I'm not). 

......I learned at 63

1.    Birthdays aren't as bad as I thought they were

2.  Burger House (in Globe) have the best green chili burros in the whole wide world

3.  I am blessed beyond measure 

Path......

This path I'm on is especially beautiful.......

hasn't always been.

There have been a few rocky, hot, dirty, miserable steps along the way, but all in all I wouldn't change it for anything. 

Some of you that have been with me on this path know exactly what I'm talking about.....

but for now.....

it's paved with beautiful green grass, plenty of flowers, places to sit and rest along the way, people to hold hands with and walk along beside me, lot's of fun and love to be shared.

I have so much to be thankful for and I am blessed beyond measure!  So glad I've had good company along the way!!
