Day 44

 I couldn’t decide what to write for the 44th day of the year.  I have a TON of things to get done today. But the most important task is meeting with my lawyer to sign my Will. 

Wills are a funny thing. Do I really care what happens to all my stuff? I’ll be dead and gone - buried, burned or recycled. I think the purpose is to make sure there is peace for the rest of the family. No arguments and no fighting. My girls and their spouses can say that Mom put her ultimate and final wishes in writing so that is how we will move forward. The paperwork itself is very formal but it doesn’t get into the things I’m most concerned about. Could I add a note at the end about how they should feel? I don’t think that is legal but if I could add that I would. Here is what I would write… 

Be kind to each other forever. Respect the lives your sisters lead and the decisions they make. Be happy for their successes and be there for them when they fail. Don’t be sad about my departure. I worked hard to get to  heaven and pray that I’m there. Believe in God. Teach your kids to believe in God. Be happy and live a life you’re proud of. The end.

Much anticipated trip

 I’m on the move again. My house is kind of complete and I feel all moved in.

I will post pictures when I can. For I will give a few hints Men wear Capri pants. (Manpris!!) Coffees are tiny and you stand at a counter to drink them.  Breakfast was a cappuccino, freshly squeezed orange juice and a chocolate croissant as big as a shoe. All for €6

Day 3

 I’m up early!! Ready to board that cruise ship!! I really can’t leave for another four hours so I have plenty of time to write. Actually, I have plenty time to exercise. Pray, read, craft, write and watch TV. Hopefully it will be productive. Of course I could just lay in bed all morning but that gets me nowhere toward my goals. This morning I am thinking about forgiveness. It’s tough. Forgiveness is something that I have total control over. It’s so easy to forgive someone when they are truly sorry. Like when my kids did something wrong when they were little, they were sorry. Easy forgiveness. When my kids did something wrong when they were older, it was a little different. They knew they were breaking a rule before they broke it. Were they sorry? Yes, but they were most likely sorry for getting caught. They knew they did something wrong and my love them could help them not make the same decision again. Easy forgiveness. My circumstances today are different. I’m trying to figure ou...

Day 9

Day 9 of my wonderful year puts me in Animal Kingdom.  I saw real animals (really really close). And fake animals! I wore my favorite Mickey shirt And drank my favorite pick me up beverage.   I do not appreciate Christmas decor and jaunty Christmas music in January. It’s just not right. It’s still a great day.
