A new year, an old mouse.

 

So now my excuse for not writing is that my mouse doesn't work! It scrolls, but I can't click on it. I guess if that is the biggest problem I have, I can't (shouldn't) really complain.

What a year it has been! I started the year with 3 grandchildren, in June, I had 5 grandchildren and then in September, I was back to 2 grandchildren. I never realized how truly evil a person could be. Especially one that I have known since she was a toddler. That this person has lied - and admitted her lies - for so, so long is mind-boggling. If my heart explodes, it will be due trying to reconcile that I love this girl, hate this girl but yet am trying to forgive her. 

Obviously that is the low point of 2025 but there have been some sweet, sweet instances! Hearing from my son who lives far away tops the list! Having my oldest daughter and my 2 honest-to-goodness grandchildren move so much closer to me is also at the top of the list. But there have been other very fine moments - from finishing up my chicken coop to moving my garden to finishing a few quilts that I started several years ago.  It has been a good couple of years despite the downtimes. 

It is looking as if 2026 is off to a good start! Especially if I get my new computer mouse!
