Welcome note

When my husband and I set out to find and take pictures of wheelchair accessible waterfalls in every U.S. state, we were excited about the challenge. We gave ourselves no time limit to accomplish our feat; however, we had one mutually agreed upon rule that dictated how long we would stay in any given area. That rule was to never shiver again. Needless to say, adhering to this rule presented a new challenge. The new challenge was to find a waterfall that was actually flowing. Visiting mid-west and eastern states during months that prevented us from shivering are the same months that are hot enough to dry up streams; hence, little or no water flow for waterfalls. The natural scenery and picturesque landscapes warrant a second visit in the early spring right after the snow melts.

This year will be a good year...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Even though I'm not able to ring in the new year with my T, I am confident this year is going give a new meaning to what is important and where priorities lie. My resolution is to rid my life of chaotic behaviors that others impose on me. I am quite the mellow person, and when there is a spastic person in my "air space", my stomach churns a bit. I'm pretty good about turning on my "deaf" ear, but I don't even want to have to waste my time doing that.


Believe it or not, T and I have become more enthralled with each other through all of this. We were quite wrapped up in each other before; now we'll be like Siamese twins, inseparable. I don't have a problem with that.


Bob's walking is becoming fluent. He has a new walker that has four wheels. He doesn't have to take two steps, stop, and lift the walker. He's walking great.


Hahaha...I spoke with T on the phone tonight. He told me to call him in the morning to find out which drunk tank he's in.


NEW: A PRAYER FOR TODAY
"Father in heaven, today I give You all that I am. I invite You into the weak places in my life so that You can turn them into strengths. Thank You for working in my life and filling me with faith and expectancy. In Jesus' Name, Amen."
