On September 13th, my oldest Daughter is getting married in Florida on the Beach. Well, we hope that she is.....maybe Mother Nature will let her. With this I gain the Son-In-Law and Grandaughter added to my Family.

On September we'll be making a trip to Illinois to visit with my Husband's Family and leave our youngest Son because he's joined the US Navy and will be leaving out for Basic. He's the last of 6 Children leaving home and going on his on.

 

 

On July 11th, I'll turn 49 and on July 17th, I'll gain a new Father. It's odd how Life works sometimes because in the 70's he and my Mother worked together but both were married to someone and in the past two years, they've both lost their Spouse. My Mother just turned 69 herself but is acting more like 19! The Wedding will be very small with just their Pastor (Yes, their Southern Baptist), them, my Sister and I. Then the Honeymoon isn't really planned.....just a week or two of travel. I'm very happy for them and hope that they have many more years to enjoy Life together.

I started the Month out really great.....had my Yule Greeting Cards ready and mailed on December 1st and my two Yule Trees done (large one in Livingroom and smaller one in the Grandkid's Playroom). Most of my shopping is done because I'd do a little each week after my appointment at the Spine Clinic and Rehab (my back locked up on me on Halloween/Samhain Night). Then on the 4th, I was "Blessed" with my 9th Grandchild and keeping her 3 year old Brother for 3 days while she and her Mother were in the Hospital so that stopped everything. I've really forgotten what it's like to chase after a child or keep them happy. His other Grandmother came and picked him up early Friday morning so then I was able to finish the decorating outside and finished inside today. Now it's time to start wrapping the Gifts and with my Family that is a major job.

Just wanted to leave this Yule Greeting to anyone that may visit my Profile:

I found this Image (looks just like her) and made this Graphic to Honor her.

Just to Honor my Familiar, Wild Thing that has passed on. She was such a "Blessing" to me and like one of my Children. I'm going to miss looking into her crystal blue eyes and the connection that I felt with her. She was also such a part of my Full Moon Rituals that it's not going to be the same without her but she's buried near my Sacred Space and the Moon will be there to shine down on her as it does me.
