YEARS

Okay so I have seen this on many blogs that I follow and decided why not join in...LOL

20 years ago I was 20 years old. I was raising my nephew and had been for a couple of years. I was already married and divorced. I lived on the fourth floor and worked 2 jobs to support us. I worked at a produce packing plant during the day and at nights worked for a cleaning company where I could take my nephew with me. I was young and ready to conquer the world.

10 years ago. I was 30 years old. After years of driving I finally decided to get my drivers license. I moved out of NY State and was raising my 5 step children. I was a manager of a store chain and loved my new life. My parent have been deceased for 9 years now.

5 years ago. Wow 35 years old. I did not have the children any more and was so lonely without them. I was in a relationship with my best friend and making plans to spend the rest of my life with him. I was taken out of work that year due to having COPD. I was blessed with 2 handsome grandsons.

1 year ago. 39 years old. I lost one of my grandsons in a horrible accident. This tore my heart out. I recieved another beautiful daughter named Ashley who is mommy's princess. I moved this year to a better child friendly neighborhood.

yesterday. I relaxed at home with my room mate and watched movies all day.

today: I have the whole house cleaned and tonight my best friend and her son brought over dinner so we could all eat together. Me and john watched some televion and he made us some hot chocolate.

tomorrow. My niece delilah and her son Richie are coming to visit for the day. He is so cute and when you blow him a kiss he pretends to grab it and says " I ate it and it is in my belly"

This wasn't so hard...LOL

LOOK AT MY BEAUTIFUL GRAND CHILDREN

It has been raining for a few days again. Today it is muggy along with it. Last night we had a girls night or what we thought would be one. THere was Eshter ( mybff), Melanie who is my ex's step mom, my niece Delilah and myself. We had a baked ziti dinner in which Esther prepared for all of us. Esther it was so good! We had some music on and decided that we could all use a good time as we are all single. We dug out some oldie music and decided we were gonna teach Esther how to dance... YUP IT WAS TOO FUNNY!!!
a couple of hours later my room mate came in and decided he would join us ladies. Next came Nate who I have been friends with for years. We decided the dance lessons were over and decided to hang out watching television. midnight comes and John passed out on the floor in front of the fire. Nate and us girls hung out until 4 am then all fell asleep. Sweet John woke us all up at 9am so now we are all like walking zombies.
Delilah went home this afternoon. I am sure she is so wanting a nap and probably did. Eshter went home and called a little while ago saying that betime was gonna be by 8 pm. I am hanging out on the couch trying to stay awake and good ol' John is wide awake... something just isn't right here...LOL

They drove down to Oregon and went to the beach. at sunset they were on the ferris wheel and David asked her to look down and there in the sand on the beach in huge letters was WILL YOU MARRY ME?

Wow it seems like forever since I have been on here. John is all moved out. I had to make some sacrifices but I came up with what I needed after he first moved out. He says he wants to be friends and I told him that friends do not let friends suffer like I was struggling!
I decided to run an ad for a room mate and after almost a month of meeting people and checking them out to see how they were I have found one who moved in last Saturday. Get this... his name is also JOHN!!! he is 22 years old and works full time. He has been considerate and seems like a good fit as he was in need of a place to go half on also as he is also starting over. We get along good and am sure that we can become good friends. which everyone needs in there life.
