Friday Fill-In's

So, I should be sleeping in ( I was up until 2 a.m.), but since my entire family knows I don't (normally) sleep in, I have received 3 phone calls before 9:30 a.m. I love my family! But I was sleeping in! ha ha! Instead of sleeping, I sit here having coffee and completing these Friday Fill-In's!

Here are my latest fill in the blank answers.

1. Last night _Fred and I hosted a New Years Eve party that was wonderfully fun, thanks to our very lovely guests!_

2. _I am really looking forward to the great things happening_ this year.

3. The funniest thing _we did last night was play charades_.

4. _I have made a list of all my 2010 goals_...so where do we go from here?

5. He said _"Let's stay home"_; she said _"I want to go"_. (they went)

6. _Joy is available to us each and every moment_ and it's up to us to find it.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to _movie viewing_, tomorrow my plans include _CYCLE CLASS!, making sure ALL Christmas decor is stored away, and Sunday, I want to _go to worship services, organize photos, and work on some project activities around the house!

Happy New Year to my family and friends!

I Close My Eyes

Well, I did it. I took the writer's challenge at a blog that I have been lurking around for some time. I found this blog through Laura at Wellblog 's place and have been enthralled ever since. I have dabbled in poetry on and off. Written some invitations, cards, and even a few song lyrics (for fun) but have been hesitant to post any. (roaring lion? see below post ) With the encouragement of a friend, I decided to take the challenge on L.L.Barkat's blog, in a lesson on seeing. I chose a subject that is cherished, a memory that was real and something close to my heart. The beach. Many, many days were spent at the beach in the 12 years I lived on the Southern Virginia coast. The memories are real, and when.......... I close my eyes and I can still see the beach. The endless spans of water Sometimes blue, green, or gray. It moves Gently and Violently Bubbles rise and falling forward. On and on. I close my eyes and I can still hear the crash Of tidal movement As earth slowly spi...

A Promise is a Promise (Grand Canyon)

Many years ago, I am guessing about 19 of them, our family visited the Grand Canyon for one day, on the way home from a trip to California to visit family.  Our eldest son was around 11, our middle one around 9, and our baby was a little over a year old.  Our boys wanted desperately to hike into the canyon, but our oldest one especially so.  He pleaded and my husband and I held firm our "No" as our youngest was too young and we were not outfitted for such an adventure.  I promised that we would return one day. A few months later we moved to the East Coast of Virginia.  Not planned when we stood at the edge of the canyon and that promise was made. And the many times we planned vacation time to the beach, our son reminded me of that promise to go the the Grand Canyon. Time flew quickly and years later we had not returned to the Grand Canyon.  But, we did move to Texas and as we looked at spending time as a family, our oldest son brought this promise bac...
