Family History And Projects

Well Hello!

My dear blogging friends who are still with me!

Yes, it has been awhile, but you know that is ok.

Sometimes to have to let one thing go so you can

enjoy something else.

Thanks for staying with me. . 

I think about my blog all the time

It is just not at the top of my 

"to do list".

 Lately it has been Family that has been on my list

of "to do".

Not only my children and grandchildren,

but I have been doing Family History.

Oh, what fun it is to find pictures, stories

of my ancestors.  

I love it!

 My Throw of Many Colors

 I have done a little sewing and crocheting

I just love my Throw (Afghan) of Many Colors.

It was so fun to make. I just took scraps of yarn and

away I went creating free style as I call it.

No pattern . . .just what I felt like doing at the time.

No it is not St. Patrick's Day

But, I have also been sewing.

Here are the pillow cases I made for my 

daughter, Emily.  Her Birthday is St. Patrick's Day

so of course Momma makes something 

with Shamrocks and the color green.

So there you have it.

I am busy busy.  Now Spring is here I will

be even more busy.  Between my Granddaughter's

Softball games, I have my little postage stamp 

back yard to get all ready. . 

Thanks goodness for a Grandson who is

willing to help me.

Yeah for Grandkids!!!

I hope you are enjoying the lovely weather

Spring.

Finding Balance and Joy In Life

I am busy!

My poor little blog is suffering because I 

can't seem to find the time to enjoy posting on my blog.

I think of my followers all the time.  Thank you for 

sticking with me.  Anyway I hope some of you are 

still following.

I have found that one of the hardest things for me is to

find balance in my life.

My last post was on putting our families first.

Well, sometimes family can not always come first.

And that is ok.

I believe finding balance  and enjoying life is the

secret to happiness.  Not always am I able to

accomplish everything I set out to do,

but I do my best and some how my best

is good enough.  

An important part of balance is happiness.

Happiness in being busy, and enjoying what you

are doing.

I have been blessed with many talents.

I love to crochet, sew and do about anything

to keep my hands busy and create.

But again I can get out of balance spending too much

time crocheting. . . .(LOL)

Each day as I try to keep my life in balance.

I begin my morning, with prayer and I ask the 

Lord that I can accomplish the things that are

most important for that day.

The Lord is amazing, and He helps me to

Balance my list of "to do's" with the important

having my attention.  Some times I am

surprised at what he thinks is more important.

The trick to life is balancing all of our responsibilites

and being happy and cheerful while doing it.

Have a wonderful day with Balance!
