New Address

I am so excited, we are going to move to our new home on August 1st. It is a quaint little house in the historical district of Dayton NV. It has a big porch that runs the length of the front of our house and faces west so we have mountains to look at. I fell in love with it the first time I saw it and all we could do was walk around it and peek into the windows but then on Tuesday we were taken inside by the property manager and it said I am yours lease me I fell in love again. It is very small but big enough for the two of us. It has 2 bedrooms and one small bathroom and I mean small but what the heck, we managed in the motorhome so we will manage in this one. The main area is a open concept with the kitchen, dining area and living area all in one, it has a woodburning stove, I have a small room off the dining room that will be my computer/craft room, no tv in the living room. I cannot wait to be able to sit outside on my front porch in the morning to listen to the birds singing and just enjoy the area.

Our new address is

260 Ziller
Dayton, NV 89403

effective August the 1st.

its wonderful to be alive

Its a wonderful day and I love life, I am so happy tonight......

Taste of Town

yesterday I had a great time with my daughter and 3 grandaughters at the Taste Of Town, we volunteered to keep count and make sure that the tasters had the proper wrist bands to be able to taste and for this we got to go around and taste after our 2 hour shift was over, we ate our way from the Carson Nugget all the way down the the Carson Mall and ended up at Schats Bakery having our dessert, a yummy cream puff. It was fun, tiring, and lots of walking. In two hours our team checked in over 360 people at our station and there was still 2 hours left to go. All in all it was lots of fun, I got a tee shirt and free foods to taste. Will I do it again next year? yes if able.

what a beautiful morning it was

today was wonderful, we sat outside and had our morning coffee, read our papers, listen to the birds singing and just enjoying the peace and quiet. What a wonderful start to a wonderful day.

A new leaf

ok, enough is enough, no more pity party for me, I have decided that I am going to feel good, I am going to find my inner self and I am going to live for me and my husband, we are going to enjoy our lives, we are going to go places, we are going to do just for us. No more drama, no more trying to be the peace keepers, what is, is what it is. I am in a good place today and I will be in a good place tomorrow and the day after that. I have a wonderful supporting husband, I have daughters that I love and I have grandchildren I adore and I have great grandchildren who light up my life, what more could I need or ask for? yep, I made the decision to let go and and be happy. Your life is what you make it, not what other people make it. Live, love, be happy.

frustrations continue

I have never had so much discord in my life as I am now experiencing in my later years. When I was younger and my husband was in the military and had to leave us months at a time I never experience the discord I now feel, I had to take care of 4 children by myself, I had a husband who at a whim would decide to move us, but in all of this I had the feeling of love, I had the feeling of togetherness, I had the feeling of family. Now in my later life I feel the disconnection of my family, I do not feel togetherness, I feel adrift in my life and I don't like it. I don't know how to fix it, I am so lost right now, no contentment, just frustrations. I have four daughters but I have to keep them in separate compartments in my heart and in my mind and that is so hard. We left Las Vegas to move to Alaska to have the family connection with our youngest daughter and her family, my oldest daughter also moved her family with us so we could continue the family togetherness but that did not happen and I don't have the answer. We returned to Nevada where we thought we would find the family togetherness and it has escaped us once again. I have to rethink my life and hope someday that all will be good again, in the meantime my one and only rock, my husband, will have to fill all the dispare I feel, all the frustrations I feel, all the lack of family togetherness I feel and he will have to be my rock, he will have to ground me, he will have to fill my heart with the love that I miss from my family, he will have to be my life.

Happy Mothers Day

I had a wonderful Mothers Day, in the early afternoon we went to Reno with Maura and Pete along with Pete's Mother and Dad, Josh, Lorraine and Dannie and I must not forget Marcus joined us, then there was Mary and her Mom, we had a really nice visit and a really nice light lunch, then this evening we went to Marina's house for dinner and it was a wonderful family gathering there, the Simpsons joined us, Brian's Mom and her friend came and he make the best lemon marauine pie, the tacos were wonderful, the kids were all there and it was so much fun to watch all the little ones playing and just having a wonderful time. I got roses from my hubby and a beautiful orchid plant from Maura and wonderful card greeting from the kids. I was wished a happy Mothers Day from Alaska from Catherine and Julia. All in All it made me feel very warm within my heart. I love my family.
