In My Rose Garden
In my Rose Garden of memories
I see you standing there
An angel in disguise
Who taught me how to care
I long to hear your voice
for real not in my dreams
I am missing you so much
how empty my world seems
People say time heals all wounds
that someday the pain will subside
But Grandma I can tell you
I think they must have lied
The emptiness I am feeling now
is strong and I am weak
These days go by without you
so deary and so bleak
In my Rose Garden of memories
I know you'll always be
for though your're gone
from this mortal world
In my heart you'll always be
If Grandma had a meaning
I'll tell you what it'd be
if you were close to yours
like mine was close to me
Grandmas are always there
to lend a shoulder and dry your tears
to comfort you in everything
and help conquer all your fears
Despite all the wrong you've done
and all the wrong you'll do
a grandma will always be there
and unconditionally will love you
A grandma will inspire you
to follow your every dream
she tells you "you wont be alone"
because you're going to be a team
Grandmas are always busy
although their hearts are tame
they tell everyone about you
so everyone knows your name
Grandmas will keep everything
from when you're young till now
and when you dance on Broadway
for her you'll take a bow
Without grandmas we'd be lost
and our tears would not be dry
and we would not be encouraged
to spread our wings and fly
To my grandma I say "Thank you"
My heart will always be
with you every day, and I know
you're here with me.

Well a year ago I entered the RCIA program in our parish to complete something I have been wanting to do with my life. Ever since I married my husband I would attend Mass with him on Easter and Christmas but never anything more. After his heart attack and stroke I knew it was time to complete something that has been tugging at my heart for year's. I will be baptized, confirmed and take Eucharist for the first time at the Easter Vigil this April. I love my faith, finally in a good place in my life-moved back home with my family, married a wonderful strong man, completed a huge goal and loving life.

Well, it has been a while since I last posted but I have been dealing with the recent loss of my precious Grandmother. I miss her but I am grateful that I got to be with her in her final days and learn just how amazing she is and the depth of her love for me.
She taught me many things growing up but the biggest lesson is the love of family and God's love for me. I only hope I am able to pass that on to my own grandchildren.

Completed one big goal!
Well, I did it I completed my bachelor's degree in Business Management! That was the most exhausting and rewarding experience. I am taking some time off to rest and get my business going and make the decision if I am going to get my Master Degree or is as far as I want to go in my education. Life is a bit difficult, with Joe not working currently and not getting his disability has made finances very tight, but I know I need to have faith that God will show me the path I need to follow. I am applying to every position I can and struggling to pick up some bookkeeping clients. Hopefully something happens soon with the holidays around the corner.

25th Reunion for Class of 1984
Taft Union High School
Taft Union High School
Well, it has been 25 years since I graduated high school, it was nice to see so many friends from school. Some have changed some have remained the same, it amazing how our lives have changed and the paths that we choose to follow but we are still one large group of friends and we all shaped each other to who we are now. We have lost some classmates to cancer and other health issues, it is sad and but at least we know they are in a better place. I am looking forward to our 30th hopefully more will be able to make the next one.

Another blessed year
April 26, 2009
Our 6th Wedding anniversary, we went to PF Chang's for dinner the other nite and Joesph got me a digital camera I have been wanting so I can enjoy my scrapbooking. I love working on getting all the old pictures together of my family and friends from over the years.
We leave in a couple of weeks to fly back to Louisiana for my oldest son's graduation, I am so looking forward to it! Now I have a awesome camera to take more pictures and add to my scrapbook!
Met some friends from high school at the Olive Garden for lunch today, we are working on our 25 year reunion for this Sept, lots of work but so exciting to re-connect with everyone.
Well, I'll write more tommorow. Off to bed for me.
