Heart Smiles

So I have been cleaning out my emails, specifically my email folders, yes I am an Email Hoarder. Yahoo is going to love me after I get done!!

Anywho, I was going through some emails from an ex, (why i kept them I don't know!) and I found this email that my Grandma had written to him. Long story. I had made him forward it to me so I could see what she said.. And well.. read it yourself. It brings a little tear to my eye. I love my family..

"Charity is a very bright, beautiful, talented and tender hearted young lady. I once got a five year old cocker spaniel who was meaner than a pit viper because the people had abused him and I was going to take him to the dog pound and she (who doesn't care much for animals) begged me to keep him for a week and see if he'd change. I did and Oscar the Grouch died of old age here, much loved and not mean at all. I now have a funny black dog (part cocker) that she rescued and insisted that Gpa would like to have him to take the place of Oscar. Midnight Beast is still with us.
She also is like all of the talented people I know, somewhat different. (I'm not talented) She is very intense about what ever is going on at the moment but laid back about a lot of things. Her feelings are easily hurt but she just laughs and no one knows she's hurt. She ALSO tells everything she knows. :-) She doesn't lie except at Christmas and Birthdays and even then it's hard for her. That's a brief synopsis on Charity.
Now---she started the Milroy Mafia and I quickly stepped in to head it up, realizing it needed a mature person in charge. :-)My four grandchildren are my assistants. Whoever, at the moment, needs the Head of the Mafia to call on them also has the other 3 to deal with. It's really just a keep in line type thing. But I noticed her Dad (my favorite and only son-in-law) wearing a Milroy Mafia T-shirt so I may have some insurgents (?) in our midst.
BTW---Her brother and I love to tease her ESPECIALLY now that there is a guy friend involved. She takes everything so seriously that it makes us worse :-)"

I just thought this was the sweetest little email. Sometimes its nice to realize how much you are loved. Its been a rough week. So I thought I would post this here so next time (tomorrow!HA!) that i'm having a bad day I would read this and smile. And its kind of hilarious HOW WELL my family knows me :)

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

45/52

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo!  My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable.  My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size!  Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!!  That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...
