New beginings

Well it's been a while since I've taken the time to write. I've been trying to get well. We've moved in with my daddy to help him and it also helps me. I miss my home but I need to make this my home. Our youngest son is living there. It's only about a block away from where we are at daddy's.
Our chicken adventure didn't go so well. It was fun at first but became very difficult for us to take care of them and ourselves so we gave them to our son's friend who raises chickens. I'm sure they are have a good ole chicken time! LOL
I'm still having trouble with my mental illness, but progress is being made every day. I'm trying to learn to accept things I can not change or do anything about. It's hard but I'm really starting to have a different out look. I'm finally able to cook a little again but I still can't drive. I've still been going to see my psychiatrist. She put me on Risperdal and Benzotropine which has helped tremendously. I take diazepam for the panic attacks that I still have. Things are not great but are definitely much better than they were a year ago! We just take it day by day and try to enjoy our life.
We've also been enjoying our grandson Brantley aka Boogie. He has brought so much joy to our lives. This is our son Brandon, Boogie and me while we were down back of our property shooting golf balls...yep that's how we play golf in the country!! :)

 

 

I've been trying to get back into my crafting too. John made big tables in the spare bedroom for his reloading and my crafting. He put pegboard on one wall so I can hang my stickers and he can hang his reloading things. Well I guess that's all for today. I'm going to find another 30 challenge so maybe I will start making daily post again. Fingers crossed :) Well I hope everyone has a great day

 

 

 

Day 26 of 30 day challenge-who am I?

                          Day 26 of my 30 day blogger challenge asks who am I?

 I am a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt, daughter-in-law, sister-in-law, cousin, niece, and granddaughter. I'm an everyday person with everyday problems and joys!! I'm kind hearted, loving and caring. I'm moody and selfish at times. I love the people in my life whole heartedly. I hold grudges and can be very strong willed. I get my feelings hurt very easily and don't forgive very easily at times but at other times I forgive in a heartbeat. I love animals, and babies, especially my Boogie, Waylon and Callie!! I love my husband so much, he is my soul-mate and I can't not imagine life without him. I love my boys more than words can explain. I have enjoyed raising them and now that they are grown I don't know what to do with myself and I have major empty nest syndrome!! I love Christmas and snow but that is the only part of winter I love. I love the season fall best of all the seasons, I love the color pink especially with black or zebra striped. I love zebras and wish I could own one!! I love the ocean, I love the sand between my toes and the wind in my hair. I love finding things on the shore that you would never expect to find there. I love to find perfect seashells and finding a brilliant piece of sea glass in an unexpected color. I love sitting in the sunshine. I love so many things and enjoy life. Once I get out of the funk that I've been in for the past couple of months I will be so excited to enjoy life to the fullest again!! Well there's a lot more of me but for now I guess this is it. :)
