I'd LOVE to see that photo of us. I'm so sorry neither of us are going to BAM. It'd be nice to get together again. I love the sound of your life. No doubt it's a wonderful one, my friend. xoxo

You don't have wrinkles dearie. I have a photo of us to prove it. I love the idea of taking time for you. My two youngest (ours by adoption) are still very challenging at times but I've resolved to set boundaries for them no matter how they protest. Love them unconditionally -- no matter how they protest. :) And knowing that I'm doing the best I can, I'm trusting God with the rest. And enjoying this time of my life. Writing. Communing with friends online and face to face. Enjoying moments with my husband. No regrets of wasting years worrying about tomorrow. xo

Thank you for commenting now, Lana! My blog is here to (hopefully!) enjoy and if a reader cares to comment, great! If not that's fine too. As long as my words make some kind of difference then, well, that means everything.

You are a good best friend to be so caring about yours and I hope they find some quality of life no matter how small that is on some days.

Glad you have the planner. Isn't it incredible?

Happy New Year and I hope it's a joyful one!

Thank you for adding me to your Facebook group. I realized as I was commenting there tonight, that although I faithfully read your blog, I rarely comment. Which is just unacceptable :)! Many of your posts have inspired me in the year I have been reading. One of my best friends suffers from MS, which is what initially drew me here. I also purchased the Choices planner, and one of the parts I love is the gratitude list. One of my entries from last week reads "having lunch with my husband"! I love the words that you chose for 2016. Happy New Year to you!
