March

This has been a life changing month.  Mikes sister our Brenda did not survive a stroke.  It has been a very sad hurt for all the family. We all pray that we do right and in a loving manner.  Today Grandma did make a list of things she needs from her house.  We want her to know that we will work together to preserve all we can.

Today being Easter I am glad I was able with help to make Brenda's favorite  "Dirty Rice"  with Banana Pudding too with Naomi's help.  We are trying to keep a routine and Mike is very good to be in charge of her medicines..business...etc...  It is not easy but Marshall and Miranda are realizing too that we need to be a team.

I am glad to say I think Miranda is feeling better.  Working on some goals.  I have thought for some time a temp agency might be good.  Well if her friends can set her on that path yeah.  

So we love Brenda...  a great aunt, caretaker, friend and sister.
Life is so precious and we need to recognize this...   We have spent so many hours with pictures, stories and recollections... peace

Good Morning  Here it is Febuary...   Miranda's and Naomi's BD  Month...  And I am updating on the same day as Penny also put in entry?  :)   Initially, I though of a gripe that of those headlines about "secret  trouble foods"  where they allude to mystery dooms... there I could not resist....  obviously why is there no info  because it is a sales tactic...  and I am off work this weekend....where is my girl  uncertain...how I pray she would think through her actions..  I will try and stay upbeat....

Have I not entered any update?   hummmm    Today the 26th......  James Michael's  bd    I am off Walgreens for a couple of days....  So far I feel hopeful for this year.  A quiet Christmas we did our best to support each other.  Marshall has made many strives to stay positive and work for change...  I am proud of him.  I love all my family.  Praying for Miranda now...Guess I will keep it short and simple and go to Church  :)    ps

Here I sit is a quiet spot.  It is past Thanksgiving & still I feel grateful.  Most grateful for my family.....  McBrides and my little Shraders...    Today was busy..  Kenmar home...  trying to forge through bills....  making decisions  what to pay, buy....   how to stay ???   in the drivers seat...  I am hopeful to take the pharmacy tech class....   I did not get much of a chance to study.....  I am looking forward to a good nights sleep....
