I haven't written in a long time. My life is much the same still working and still focused on my family, especially my granddaughters. It has been an emotional and stressful couple of years. I am coping as best that I can. Right now, I am battling grief issues and depression issues myself. So, I thought that journaling will help me to get through this time in my life. I still enjoy my job and especially working with my clients. I am not as fond of the agency that I work for as I have been in the past. They have disappointed me over the years and especially hurt my daughter, but I still work here because of the clients I serve and the people I directly work with. Today is a difficult day, but I am making it--just have a lot to deal with lately. I am trusting that God will lead me through this dark time towards the light and more joy. I will probably keep in touch better now and share my thoughts in writings now. That's all for now.

Wow! It has been a long time since I have written,so what better time to start than January! A lot has happened since 2015, lets see if I can remember the highlights. On November 29, 2016 my first great grandchild was born. That was an amazing day! My granddaughter Breanna was in labor most of the day and finally late that evening Sophie Ann made her appearance. She was perfect and Breanna was amazing. I am so proud and Sophie is the highlight in all of our lives. She keeps me young. In February 2017, finally, Chris and Jaime got married. It was a perfect cozy wedding in Franklin. The next highlight is an overhaul of my trailer home for me and Shannon. We had to move out and a two week job took almost 4 months of which I lived with Chris and Jaime (which was an adventure in itself) and Shannon and Selena stayed with a friend. We moved out February 2018 and moved back to our home in July and it is like a brand new home! We have new floors, new bathrooms, mold removed, and it is 100% better! JK and I went to Indiana this summer and had a great time of fun and bonding! In November 2018 we had another wedding as my granddaughter Audrie married her high school sweetheart Blake. It was the sweetest wedding and Audrie was a beautiful bride. They seem very happy and so cute together. Breanna finally found a good guy and she and Jacob plan to marry in March. He seems to be a great guy and he adores Breanna and Sophie. So, I am praying my sweet girl has found joy and love. She has had a rough couple of years raising Sophie on her own after Brent left and then together with Jacob she happily found out she was pregnant in December, only to loose her baby a few days before Christmas. It's been hard but this month has found Jacob and Breanna moving to a house and planning a wedding. It's time for her to have some joy. Jocelyn,my youngest grandchild is driving!! Oh my!! And, she has been hired for her first job and a busy high school sophomore. They grow up too fast. So now we are in January 2019 and ready for the adventure and blessings of a new year. Until next time...
