~A NEW BEGINING~

This long side-walk reminds me of the journey that I am about to encounter. There has been some new changes that have went on in my life lately. To begin with I have accepted a new job offer. I will be closer to home and I will not have to drive an hour each way any more! :))) That is very exciting for me as I have just gained 2 more hours in my day. How great is that to be able to do more things in my day... I have excepted a new job in a Director position. It is helping develop group homes for disabled adults with developmental disabilities and mental illness. It is definitely going to be challenging and offer many benefits/rewards for me at the same time. It was a huge step for me as I have felt that I have been in a safety net as I have been employed with the State for over 5 years. New adventures, nothing ventured nothing gained. I am excited and nervous at the same time which is normal. I have enjoyed working in the vocational rehabilitation area and my consumers have brought so much to my life more then they will ever know... Well for now that is it I must read the newspaper and get ready for work. I hope all of you enjoy the day and stay dry~

~ COLORS OF FALL~

I think the thing I like most about Fall is the brilliant colors that impress my eyes. Yesterday I was staring out the window and I noticed that many of the brilliant bright colors are quickly turning brown and blowing around on the ground. I guess every thing has it's season. Today I am up early and as my hubby puts it having a continental breakfast; granola cereal and yogurt, oj, and coffee. I hope all of you have a grand day! I need to read the newspaper quickly and scoot off to work~

~DAYS OF FALL~

Today turned out to be a beautiful day... This weekend I stopped in at the Farmers Market, stopped at a few shops/yummy treats, hit the mall, made chili, and made a new friend. This weekend went really fast zzzzooommm.... Waited for my friend to call from Texas??? I hope all of you enjoyed this awesome fall weekend!!!

~FALL DAY~

This morning I can feel that Fall is here~
Sorry I haven't updated my blog lately my internet has been down??? There is always something that binds my time. That's a good thing then I know that I am engaged in life... It's interesting when you take the time to look around, take in your senses, use your nose to smell the crisp clean air, eyes to see the beautiful bold Fall colors... When I was at the zoo a few weeks ago I actually stopped took in a deep breath of air AMAZING I was fully engaged in the moment. How often do we buzz here and there and don't even realize the beauty of the earth... Take time to engage in the moment; the sights and sounds around you. Take in some deep breaths, touch your feet, let the piece of chocolate melt in your mouth and enjoy the simple pleasures of site, smell, and taste of everything. Happy Hump Day~

~Happy Friday~

Happy Friday to everyone... I hope all of you have a FABULOUS Fall weekend. I am feeling better and have my voice back!!! Nice to hear from my long lost friend... I have a busy weekend with a confirmation on Sunday. Take in the smells of the crisp fall air and the sweet tastes of the fall fruit.

~I NEED A DOCTOR IN THE HOUSE~

I have not been feeling well since last week. I have a terrible case of laryngitis and sinus infection. I have been taking antibiotics since Friday and I seem to be slowly gaining my voice back. My voice is stressed and the doctor recommended rest. Besides that not much else going on here...

~A DAY AT THE ZOO~

Saturday was a day at the Como Zoo in St.Paul, Minnesota. To say the least there was a bit of monkeying around.... It was a beautiful day to walk around outside. After that we returned to Mankato and we spent an evening watching the TiberWolves basketball team. It was amazing to watch the half time show.. The mascot and the others that flip in the air it was mouth dropping...

I woke up this Sunday morning and it has been raining for some time. I enjoy a rainy day but why on the weekend??? It should only do that during the week :)..

Happy Weekend to all of you~
