LOOK WHO'S BACK!

Well, I'm back. Sort of. I have found that I can procrastinate forever. Not that I didn't have excuses. I had this little detour called "Cancer". I must admit that it took the proverbial wind out of my sails. I really thought I was prepared for anything - but when the doctor finally said that horrible word, it came as a shock and all the emotions and fears spilled over. But, I weathered the storm and am fine. Just have to keep those dreaded doctor appointments every 3 months. Like looking over my shoulder all the time.

I'm trying not to do that, though. I'm trying to just look ahead and find the best in every day. Difficult during these tough times, however. I am thrilled with Obama as President. We certainly endured what seemed to be an eternal dark night of the soul with Bush. As crazy as our economic crisis is, I think Obama is the one to help lead us out of it. Now - if people will just give him the time to do it. We always want instant answers - instant fixes to everything. This will just take time, patience, and a willingness to put aside our political differences for the common good. (That last part is directed at the current Party of "NO")

I finally took the plunge and signed up for Facebook. Actually, the reason I did it was so that I could see pictures that were posted on my son's page. I have "bumped" into two people I went to high school with. Back in the dark ages. It is kind of fun - and nostalgic. Days and years pass, and before we know it, so many have piled up and we are a long way from where we started. Recalling these two people - remembering who we were then and sharing who we are now - is really wonderful. A gift.

So, even though I am the most computer challenged adult alive...I'm on Facebook! Now I find out there is something called Twitter.....hmmmmmm....maybe next year!!!
