On the positive side...
So much of what I’ve written about of late has been very negative because they have focused on the news. It’s hard to find much positive in the world right now. So, I’m making a conscious decision to stop worrying about much of it.
In our personal lives, we are doing well. We have refinanced our home for a lower interest rate, and in the process, have decided to put hard wood floors in our home and do some repainting. This all starts next Monday. We are excited about it, although I’m not so sure that my cats will be thrilled with the construction. Hopefully, they will come to like their new digs.





Thanks Jeff. I will certainly do that.
The truth is, I've been ill. I suppose I let myself just do too much and I tired myself out, but I ended up getting a really nasty bug and have had quite a time of it. On top of that, I suppose because I didn't feel well, everything just kind of got to me (you know... world stuff). I honestly shouldn't care so much... I'm working on caring less about things I cannot change (the world) and caring more about things I can help out (my family and my circle of friends). Yes, you are one of them. :)
I hope to post a few photos in a day or two.
Glad you are well. I have been thinking about you, and wondering if you were alright because you haven't been posting much lately.
Come on over to Athenamama and take your mind off the world by checking out some pics of cute dogs and cats for awhile.
