Nothing Much Happening

Quiet day at work so thought I would work on my blog. Nothing of consequence to say but that hasn't stopped me before! I have caught up with all my work and just answering phones (whenever)!

We are heading out to Vancouver to see our kids on Thursday. Looking forward to that. We have not seen them since the end of February. It is time! That baby (more commonly known as Grace) is now 4 months old and growing... Looking forward to seeing how this growing family gets along!

I have been trying to talk my husband into getting a firepit for our backyard. So far...not successful. I have not given up yet though - when the snow starts to fly - then I will know it is a definite NO.

Looking forward to camping this year. Will be spending a number of days with our kids and grandkids as well as my brother and family. Also, a few days with my 'main man'. We will celebrate our anniversary 'on our own' which can be very nice as well. I hope to visit my other brother on our return home.

I have a friend whose husband passed away a few years ago. She is still young and has now met a man. When or how do you know IF he is the right one? she asks. Yikes. That's a toughie! can't imagine doing that again but I am sure she thought that at one time also. She seems totally swept off her feet and is doing all she can to 'make sure'. Right now it is long distance but they will be on the same page by fall. I said to do a lot of talking on a lot of different subjects and cover as much as possible. In long time marriages, however, both parties change and grow so nothing is constant or remains the same. That is a good thing - as long as you are going down the same path or at least in the same direction. Change is good but it can cause a lot of problems too. In the end, I know she will do the right thing. I told her that a common belief system is very important or that can cause more problems. She is working on that one. Said it would be the tie-breaker but so far, so good.

Ok, well, that is about all I can come up with today. Sometimes, a dull day is just that ... a dull day. Maybe tomorrow will be more exciting!

So many divorces suggest that many people must be asking the wrong questions when they are assessing their relationship. Or are there expectations of a relationship all mixed up? Your friend is very vulnerable since she is lonely.
