Wow, my cat came out of the bathroom and is acting all weird! She keeps looking around like she is scared. Wonder if she had a bad dream, something is out there, or if we are going to have an earthquake? Who knows.... Toby is oblivious. He is snoring. Kind of freaks me out a bit.
Had a short spell of not feeling that well yesterday.... took a nap while papa went to mom's house. I do think that nose spray is working though. Today is my weight loss campaign again. My doc kind of freaked me out too. She got on the computer and put in my age, weight, blood pressure, etc... and said the chances of me having a heart attack within 5 years are moderate. I went "wow". Then she added my "mom" and it jumped it to "highly likely". Yikes! Need to exercise and get the weight off. Seeing it on the screen is kind of scary, huh? I would only be 58! Just like papa!!!! I don't want to go through that or have my kids go through it. I may not survive like papa! Please pray for me as I do this.... pray it comes easy for me!
Pray for our cousin! I almost said "little cousin" because that is how I see Toni. Our kids grew up with their cousins Toni, Kari and Karen and Renee Brazeau. We had some devastating news regarding Toni yesterday. As you can see on my prayer request in the left column..... she has been diagnosed with Colon Cancer. So scary! Pray for her and her family! I adore her mom Maralyn.... and her dad, Joe, is Papa's cousin and they grew up together for the most part. Our prayers are with them all! Posting pictures of the kids together in the day.... they sure had fun and made some memories!!! The photo's probably won't mean anything to anyone but the kids. ;D
Top row is Karla, Renee, Kari, Karen, Tara, Heather and Toni.... bottom is Ryan, Jack and Kevon!
Camping was fun.... Joe even brought out his guitar! Roasting marshmallows here...Joe and Lanny on the table. Sitting is Kevon, Heather, Tara, Kari, Maralyn, Karla, Toni and Ryan.
Celebrating birthdays!
The cousins.... quite a crowd! Kari, Renee, Toni, Heather Karla, Tara, Kevon, Ryan, Billy, Karen, PB and Bernie! (Bernie got married last year.... does that tell you how old the picture is?)
Below is Maralyn and her girls Toni and Kari in 1987....
and then again in 2003!
Wow... those pictures sure brought me back and made me happy/sad. Life gets so busy and goes by so fast and sometimes you neglect people you love dearly.
Talked with my sister Lois for awhile last night. I miss her... she lives on the other side of the mountains.
Hope you all have a great day today in whatever you do and may you be a blessing to God! xoxo

Praying for all of you up there! Love all of your history pics! Hang in there friend! We need to help each other again with the exercise and weight loss:) Love you!
Hi Joyce! I am trying to get back to blogging! Been busy. I love your old pics. They are always neat. Hope Toni's surgery goes well. You get to feeling better and take care! No health problems! We gotta get that under control! Leaning on each other sounds great! Have a good day!
It has been a mild winter. I'm still waiting for the big blast. It's bound to happen.
I'm always a little on edge when the pets freak out. They're smart, they know things. It really makes me wonder...
Joyce, I will be sending up those prayers....my dad passed away when he was only 47 from colon cancer, he never went to the doctors, didn't take care of himself, he did whatever he wanted to do & he paid in the end & I miss him every day and yes some days I am angry still (he passed in 1996) he has missed so much, didn't see his oldest grandson (my Billy) become a Marine...won't see his granddaughter (my Nikky) get married this fall & that makes me sad. So I know what kind of a fight she will have but she needs to be strong every day as do all of you because it won't be easy BUT with Love & prayers & support I will pray that she is o.k. ~ I am right here praying and cheering her on with the rest of you...may God take her in his arms and hold her tight, may he give her the strength she will need to get through this, God Bless & be with her, Please!
Cousins are the best, that's for sure. I have a zillion memories of growing up with mine. I'll sure pray for Toni and her family. And I'll pray for you too. Dieting stinks just about as bad as anything can stink.
