April 18th ~ Homewards Bound

 In three words I can sum up everything
 I’ve learned about life: it goes on...

Being in NC with my family was a much needed break. 

 I had the time of my life.  Relaxing and just catching up 

with everyone.  I'm soon back to the hustle and bustle of work

 again, but this little brake has given me "new" life again.  I'm

 happy and I am grateful to have had this time with everyone.

My gears are already shifted back to Branson and to work. 

 Looking forward to being home with Sniff and Arvid. 

 After all they are my sanity in this crazy world we

 live in.  I have missed my little Sniff Sniff a lot.

I already am missing my mom and dad.  My sisters, 

nieces and nephews, but how lucky I am that I was able to 

see them.  many are not so fortunate.  For that I am grateful.

Yesterday is not ours to recover,

 but tomorrow is ours to win or lose...

Saturday October 16th ~

If there's a thing I've learned in my life it's

 to not be afraid of the responsibility that 
comes with caring for other people... 

Saturday begins beautifully.  No rain.  I was able to walking

 and feed the kitties. Feels good and makes my heart happy.

Here at home Arvid and Sniff are already in their positions. 

 Soccer today so while Arvid watches Sniff will most likely catch 

up on more sleep.  Happy boys. They are just cute together.

Not much planned for today.  Soccer, cleaning and 

hopefully the movies.  With that I am happy and content. 

 So far the day is looking really good.  yesterday we even had

 a little balcony time.  Arvid more than me, but was good.

Happy day to all.  Make it an amazing one.

A man must be big enough to admit his

 mistakes, smart enough to profit from them,

 and strong enough to correct them...
