Update on life.

Hi everyone, I have been quite busy, or at least it seems that way to me. I had my monthly meeting of the Antique club I belong too. It was a nice one. We had a speaker who had been collecting butterflies for over 50 years, and he brought several cases of them to show us. His talk was also very interesting. He had been a teacher for many years also. Our hostesses of the month had decorated a winter theme, and it was very festive looking.  The food was excellent as well. So an all around success. That is always nice, since I am responsible for that, being the hostess coordinator. :-)  Just a day or so later, our good friend passed away, and so we began to prepare for our goodbyes. The wake for him was last night, and it was really nice. All the children and grandchildren spoke, and told stories from his life. He was quite the man, and loved by all. It was so nice to hear them all and know that he had a full life and not only received love, but gave it to all his family and friends. I thought it was going to be a very sad time, but it turned out to be a happy one. The service is today, and so we will say our last goodbyes then.  On another subject, had a mole removed, and was okay, so that was a relief!!
Still  trying to get blood sugar on a lower level, now giving myself shots in the morning, instead of the evening, so  far, not much different. ahhhhhhh!!! Stay tuned on that. It is getting to be quite frustrating. Oh well, on a lighter note, I have daffodils peaking out of the ground, which means that I have lots of daffodils to look forward too. Hopefully most of the 90 bulbs will make a showing!! Will have to take pictures when they all arrive. My great granddaughter turns 1 year today. Boy, did that year fly by!! Antique Rose

  1. I'm so sorry about your friend. I am glad that the wake turned out to be a happy time filled with great stories of who I'm sure was a wonderful man. I love you and hope that your blood sugar levels get better soon!
