Halloween has just passed now it's on to thanksgiving and from there christmas and then a new year gosh where does the time go. the older we get the faster the years past. I have to omit I so look forward to the holidays love christmas makes me remember when my children were young and all the gifts under the treee waiting for christmas morning loved it sometimes wish I could turn back the clock to see those days again.But as time goes on we enter so many different fazes of our lifes our children grow up and start families of their own and we become grandparents and still enjoy these holidays though their eyes so growing old isn't all bad theres alote of purts that go along with it.This past year has been alittle easier sense my husbands death I now have my oldest grandson living with me which I so enjoy we raised him so it's like my son coming home again and he gives me lotes of joy.Also my oldest daughter was here for awhile till she got a place of her own was like having a house full again loved it of course she got a place close so we can spend much time together.Our summer was a cool one very surprising but nice afride this winter is going to be a hard one with lotes of snow glad I don't have to get out in it.This computer has been so much fun for me fills up lotes of my time just keeping in touch with friends and family took me along time to fiqure it out of course I'm still doing that but thats ok well this new journal has become a short story so I had better close and say thank you to all my HI5 friends for being there for me..Love you all god bless..
