New Year's Eve, a good time to look back and reflect I suppose. What a year 2022 has turned out to be.
My mom passed away in June, so mother's day was my last visit with her. The sadness that came with that door closing was eased by another door opening. A chance meeting of someone very special on May 6th has turned out to be the biggest surprise of 2022 for me. Mom always told me someone would come along when I least expected it, and in true mother fashion, she was right. Eric Young has brought a spark back to my life that I didn't even know I was missing. Living 16 hours apart hasn't stopped the relationship from growing, perhaps it has even helped it along but I know I look forward to what 2023 brings our way.
I have enjoyed a full year of having both my daughters here and am so proud of all the progress they have made these past 365 days.
I turned 60 this year and was blessed to hear from so many of the great friends I have.
We had vacations and parties, had a new deck and fence built, paid off my mortgage and Pico found a new, loving home, I got my new woodstove and enjoyed extra time with my sister, Pat. Eric visited in November and painted my bathroom, spoiled us with seafood chowder and his delicious fish and chips. He really is a gem ❤️ and I cant wait to see him in January!
It seems that since I turned 60, my health decided to take a turn. One thing after another has tried to set me back, but I have overcome them all and will be back to traveling again in January.
Overall, 2022 has been good to me, my world is steady and my heart is full.
Happy New Year everyone!
