HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SIS!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOIS!!!! Today is my big sister's birthday! She lives over in Yakima so I don't get to celebrate it with her.... but I hope and pray she has a wonderful day and many happy and healthy years ahead! I love this picture of her with her daddy! I love you, lolo! Don't expect bells & whistles and enthusiasm with the rest of this blog today. Woke up pretty crabby with Lanny looking in the closet with a flashlight and me realizing I didn't wash his walmart clothes for tonight. I felt so bad. It is funny how it can set your mood when you mess up...plus I slept so bad last night. Seem to have a lot of worry on my plate... which is bad. So today I am doing laundry, I'm going to finish my tree, and clean.


YESTERDAY: I was so busy cleaning, making room for the tree and putting it up. I don't know if I will put up a tree anymore. It is a lot of work and not a lot of fun by yourself. I couldn't help but reflect on the years we would all decorate the tree as a family and play Christmas music. Not overly thrilled with this time in my life. Can you tell? For the first time in my life... I feel like I have no purpose. Feels awful.


Last night we went to Riley's Christmas concert! That was good! They are always good. And she was beautiful, of course. Then we went to bible study at Bill and Lana's in Poulsbo. People are still missing because of the Dessert Theater. I would love to go see a performance. But no money. I keep praying for the ones involved, many who are friends of mine!


Today I am thankful for Lois and she is in my prayers today and always. I am also thankful for Joel, Tara, and cousin June! And I will say special prayers for their needs today. Don't forget to stop and remember Pearl Harbor and all the lives affected by the devastation. God bless you all and your day! Hope you all have a great weekend, too!
