This and That


Life has been ever so busy as we get closer to retirement. I never realized there could be so much paperwork and appointments and such for this process. But it will all be worth it soon, I can finally take my hubby and head to the northwest and start relaxing. YAY!

Workouts have been so-so, the extreme heat in the gym along with the general hot as blue blazes weather has made getting an effective workout a hard thing to do, but we still work on it. On the AC in the gym front...they have finally decided that the entire thing must be replaced. Well Duh! So we should have AC in the Gym after 10 weeks, about the time I leave the area. Figures! But that is life...on we go.

Cheyenne is getting excited as she gets closer to her birthday...turning 10 seems to be a really important time for her. She is growing up so much and changing so quickly that is amazes me. She amazes me sometimes. She will make a wonderful young woman one day, at lease from a bias mother's point of view I think so.

Stephan on the other hand is getting a big taste of adult responsibility, I do not think he likes be 22 any more and would most likely go back to those years where mommy took care of him, if he could. Well that will not happen, so he is job hunting and making plans to find a place for himself when we move. He is going to stay here in NC so he is closer to his son in Florida. At least for the next year that is the plan, then he is looking at moving to Florida with his girlfriend. I wish him luck and will always be here to listen as he finds his own way in life.

I myself and looking forward to my Birthday later this month...43 is going to be good. I am happier now than ever in my life and I feel very confident about the future. I am looking forward to having so much free time with hubby.

Meanwhile, I am worrying a bit about my sister, whose cancer surgery is on the 8th. I hope it goes successfully and they get all it. Skin cancer is a scarey thing. Apparently all those years as Beach Bunnies in Florida snuck up her, I thankfully have not had to deal with that and hope I do not have to. But we will see what life brings.

So the immediate future is showing many VA appointments for my husband so lots of running around. But...we are almost done...YAY!!! So enough catching up for now.
