And a Life I Have...

I'm starting to realize that as much as I WANT to keep up with posting to my blog, my life is just too busy now... my mind stays too full of things I want to learn about, find out about, etc...

I have decided to just blog when I can... I guess it will be better than nothing ::winks::

An update on me and life:

Well, I am staying busy like I said... my guys (aka sons) keeps me busy... but as I have posted before life has been about learning to get happy with myself... I did go out to eat at a restaurant by myself... I have a lot of divorced friends that say that they could never do that... I am gonna tell you that it is the most SATISFYING feeling that you will ever have with yourself after going through a divorce... I cannot speak for the rest of you but you should try it, also...

I have gotten more social... as much as I can stand to and still deal with the fibromyalgia... I have joined some craft classed here that are taught by a good friend of mine... I totally enjoy these and I have met some really nice people in the time spent there (not to count all the beautiful projects we have done and stuff I have learned)... Yes, the classes kill me- I usually can't hardly stand after sitting for that long (even though I try to get up and move around during class a few times) but several days of rest and I'm back for more...

I have my niece and nephew over more... they absolutely LOVE to come spend the night with me... We have recently learned how to GEOCACHE... and that has been amazing!! It is definitely our new favorite hobby and I am sure it will involve a little bit of traveling this summer... We are trying really hard to get their parents hooked on the hobby then they can drive us... lol... We have spent several weekends so far doing this and most of their Spring Break was spent at my house with me... I love that they are getting older and they are a huge help to me... they understand more now about my fibromyalgia so if I need to rest a few hours in the chair, they are happy to watch a movie...

I have recently started trying to cook more often... wait... don't jump for joy just yet... nothing elaborate... mostly something in the crockpot or the microwave or a quick casserole in the oven... anything that I do not have to stand for long periods to prepare... and in the process of getting back to my cooking- I am trying to only cook enough for those eating... no leftovers... we are not good about eating leftovers... or rather, ALEX is not good at eating leftovers... it's hard to cook for just two people but I am learning... This in turn should help my grocery bill... that would be nice!

I have done many craft projects in the last year or so... many scrapbook layouts... maybe I will get a chance later to take some pictures and post some of them... I would love for you to see... I have so many things that I still want to do... SOOOOO I better get off of here and get busy...

'til next time... Bonnie
