Happy Birthday Jim

Today marks Jim's 47th birthday, rather than celebrating here on earth, he is celebrating in heaven. I can imagine it is spectacular.

I remember when Jim would tease me about being the same age for about three months and then I would call him a smarty pants when the age changed.

I miss him immensely, just as the rest of the family and my heart will always be with him. I have to always remember that he is in a much better place and to have known him, is so much more incredible than to not have known him at all.

February 5th already

Well, today is my birthday and I am not boasting about it. Thank goodness I have a great family and friends that wish me the best. However, there is something missing that cannot be replaced from the male perspective. The void that exists will always be in regards to such a special person.

Like I said, I am thankful for what I do have and the continued love I share with both sides of my family, that will always remain.

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr................

I can't wait until winter is over for more than one reason. At least I had a nice lunch with Doug (Jim's brother) and his girlfriend Cristy. They are moving within a short period of time and myself as well as the rest of the family are going to miss them tons. I hope all goes well for them.

Everybody stay cozy as possible.

Looking Outside.....

Looking outside, we have about 2 inches of snow on the ground with a sheet of ice on top. I certainly don't plan on being on the road today. I am awaiting for the Spring season to arrive for some warmth and hopefully some happiness.

I hope my mother-in-law recovers quickly from her knee surgery and I hope that my father-in-law is doing well.

Happy New Year

Already January 1st, 2011. I hope this year is an improvement for many of us. I wish the best to everyone I know and care about and even those that I don't know. I will try and be more attentive to blogging.

I wish everyone a happy and healthy new year.

Pardon Me...

Please pardon me, while take some time off from blogging. I should posted this sometime ago. It can be difficult to handle this the same way it had been done before. I hope at some point in the near future, I can continue to manage this somewhat better.

Kitty Sitting

Alyssa and Charlie left for vacation this morning, they usually do this around their anniversary. They are headed south and I don't blame them. So I get to kitty-cat watch and bunny rabbit watch. I know how Alyssa is, she will worry about them the whole time she is gone. I just told her not to worry and just to enjoy their break. I have Chester, Misty and Cinnabon to care for. They are all adorable. Gaetano and I will be splitting the task of caring for them. I am glad I am able to help.

Also Happy Birthday to my niece Jade, she is 18 today.

I will probably go for a bike ride this morning and take care of other things as the day goes. Take care of everyone.
