Long time, no visit....

Well... it would appear that my friends have shamed me into blogging once more. See?
They are all staring at me!

It has been a long time since I did this.... expressed an opinion or updated on family... or, well - anything.
Its been a very busy few years of growing and learning.... and experiencing - well - lots.
It is spring - and this spring I have decided, once again, to make some changes for the better. I have learned that the sun is very important to me.... it has a lot to do with my mood, my physical condition, how I feel.....

In that time, I have also learned that the MOST important thing to me is my family - specifically my children. Oh - they are much bigger than 'children' - good grief, one is an adult! (So they tell me... that chronological thing).
I have also learned that blood IS MUCH thicker than water. And when it comes down to anyone or anything versus my kids - my kids win. Hands down.

I have learned that the support I need will never ever come from the places I have looked.
But it does come - from the places it always has.
And sometimes from places that you don't expect.

These were good lessons.

And I have also learned that I still like to write.
And photograph.
