"There's no place like home. . .'

I am finally home again and alone again, such a great feeling. There truly is "No place like home" and I love being here where all my stuff lives along with the stuff I don't want to live with and the stuff that is out of place, but hey, it's still my stuff.

I made significant progress today by getting my digital camera software downloaded onto my computer and I can now add my personal pictures to my blog. Not that many people are looking at it but at least I am improving myself by the challenge to become more computer literate. What more could a girl want at my age?

I am off though again, however this time it's to Topsail Beach on the coast of North Carolina. I am SO looking forward to this time. I feel like I have no life and what I do have isn't mine, it's been dictated by others or circumstances beyond my control. I need some sort of routine and structure back in my life. I wonder if some of this could be part of no longer working after working for so many years? If anyone has an answer or suggestion for me I am open.

I am having trouble sleeping again and so at almost 2 a.m. on Friday, September 19, 2008 I sit here entering this post hoping to be able to go back to bed and sleep until 6 a.m. I am suppose to be at my sweet friend Sherry's house around 6:30 a.m. to go to a regular estate sale that we visit twice a month. Sherry has been on vacation for 2 weeks and tomorrow will be the first time I have seen her since she got back. It will be great to spend time together and to get back into our mode for items and ideas. Nothing like shopping, especially an estate sale, to get one's mind off one's troubles.

That's all for now. Shall we sleep. . .

Haven't Gotten to Normal Yet

Well, so much for a new blog when you don't get to keep it up to date because things just seem to snowball. Right now my daddy is staying with me while he recovers from having steints plus he has to have dialysis 3 times a week. It's a long story and one I just can't get into right now, but maybe just maybe after September 16 I can have a life. However, I have managed to sign up for 2 swaps and currently working on getting them ready to mail. I guess I had better stop this for today and get on with facing what is right in front of me. Later. . .
