Normal Days

Normal Day, let me be aware of the treasure you are.
Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart.
Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow.

just one more


Susan Branch- items from the dot com


I e-mailed S that I wanted this scrapbooking kit - from www.susanbranch.com and he bought it for me, what i wanted to shoe you was how sweetly it was packaged! - they sent it to me with love, there were stickers and


Tissue wrap and extra goodies- like two calendars - it was so very nicely done.






Isn't this nice. even the outer package had stickers and sweet sentiments.



I am alive and well!

sorry I haven't posted, this is an extreme time of the year for me. We are getting ready for open enrollment at CU ! and that involves alot of computer time for work and then I just want to vege at home.

But on Friday the 17th S and I celebrated 10 years of married life! He is the best pal and friend , and a great husband and a wonderful dad to the kids. I would make this decision again and again no doubts or regrets.

a few more pictures

at the hotel we saw these lovely trees- Hh's new favorite and U.B.'s too. Palms will be forever in Hh's mind when thinking of lovely San Diego
Hh took this photo- well composed in the evening light - of a sun on the patio at A.S and U.B's beautiful home.


The view from the patio- look at the golf hole and link, and lake. ( water feature) so stunning.

A little Lemon anyone? there was a Lime close by too. right in the patio garden.
Love love love it. We had a blast.

Same stuff different day?!?

Back in Colorado Springs- benefits office today. Trip down to my folks last night yielded a bit of fluffy snow- what happened to spring? in the last two weeks we have had several large winter storms. It makes this trip less than pleasant.

I was glad to have had a few days off and did fun things and serious things ; while taking a VaCa... dealing with taxes, forms and other assorted items that need care. The only thing I didn't get to do yet is work on a trip album documenting our Fun in San Diego- will get that sooner than later I hope.

well just a little snippet updating my day. Be Well and Happy.

It grows up the sides of these huge palm trees- Hh loved the palms, I have a " few" pictures of them

This was yesterday before we left.


She loved her time in the sun and had a blast of fun. She didn't want to go home!
