As much as I want to write,

there really isn’t anything interesting going on in my life right now.

I will continue to follow blogs,

but until something interesting happens,

I think I’m done…

See that smile?

It’s sincere.

I’m in a good place right now.

I’m not stressed.

I’m enjoying my life.

I’m good.

I went through the motions from January 6th – April 15th.

I wasn’t really living while MyDaddy’s life was on the line.

Now I’m living out loud.

Shug & I have taken several small trips.

A trip to Atlanta is being discussed.

One of my favorite bloggy friends  lives there.

We’re still mapping out a trip to the Caribbean.

I think that trip will be in December.

And I’m thinking we may end up in New York for our 6th anniversary.

Who knows what we’ll do.

I think having the freedom to do what we want,

when we want to is the only good thing about not having children.

And I’m okay with that.

I tried to keep up with everyone’s blogs while I was gone.

I didn’t do a very good job.

Two of my favorite bloggy friends,

Erin & Preshus Me have added ADORABLE baby boys to their flocks.

Congratulations y’all!

Life is going on,

and you know what?

I’m feeling really good!

Hey y'all!

So much has happened since January,

and so much has remained the same.

I’ve wanted to write,

but just didn’t feel up to it.

My world almost ended when we came close to losing MyDaddy.

His kidney transplant was not successful.

First it was a “shocky’ kidney,

then it went into rejection,

then it turned to sepsis.

They removed the kidney on February 14th.

He was released from rehab on April 15th.

It’s been a long haul,

but he’s doing WONDERFUL now!

He’s living,

walking proof of God’s Grace & Mercy.

He’s back at the top of the transplant list.

 Our prayers are more specific this time.

A kidney that will function,

keep him healthy

 and better his life is my specific prayer.

I’ll fill you guys in on me tomorrow.

Just know that I’m good and

I’ve been gone far too long!

Is this thing on?

I just might get back to blogging….

Shug and I are in a good place.

The grief counseling that we did through our church really helped us.

We’re communicating so much better now.

We’re also accepting that we may end up living our lives child free.

We’re not giving up,

but we are moving on.

This weekend we’re going to dismantle the nursery and return all the borrowed stuff to MyFriend.

Some stuff we’re donating to a young mother in need,

everything else will be packed up for future use or future donation.

We’re planning several trips this year.

We specifically want to go on another cruise to the Caribbean.

We also want to hit up the East Coast and the West Coast.

We’re young and childless so we’re going to make the most our time together.

No more waiting on the sidelines.

No more playing the “What if” game.

It’s about damn time!

It’s time for changes…

I’ll be back in 2011.

Hopefully without the surly attitude.

Merry Christmas,

Happy Hanukkah,

Happy Kwanzaa,

Happy Winter Solstice,

Happy New Year!

Congratulations MyFriend!!
