HAPPY NEW YEAR, 2008

Good Morning all, In my part of Indiana it is 18 degrees with 6 plus inches of snow on the ground that is just right for children to be out making snow men and having snow ball fights. We are under a weather warning that says we are going to get 2 or more inches of snow today with the wind picking up for blowing of the white stuff. My hubby has been out and is going to try it to town and then to our other farm to check on the sows and the new baby pigs. I just saw a pickup go by so the roads are not to bad yet. The landscape outside the window is just beautiful and a flock of geese are flying over the house. The tree limbs are covered with snow and makes the world seem magical.

I hope all of you had a wonderful evening of celebrating the New Year in. Hubby and I attended a party at our Church with a small group of people. Fun was had with games, food, more food, celebrating the Preacher's son on his 13th birthday, visiting and prayer. All is right with my world.

Not sure about you, but I am getting very excited about the year coming up. I know God is going to do wonders in my life and my families life. The year of 2007 was good for me. (A year in review). Last January saw me beginning my last semester of college. My last two classes under way and the beginning of getting out after going to school year around for 8 years. That is right I went fall, spring, and summer for those 8 years. Saying good by was the hardest thing I had to do. May 19, 2007 found me receiving a diploma and the beginning of the next part of my life. I came home from graduation and rested for a month and started the process of finding a job. At first I thought I could do it without God, but reality hit and now I am sitting back and letting God do His thing with my life. I have made resumes and cover letters and filled out what seems like a lot of applications and gone on a few interviews. As I have said in other posts I am in the best health. September rolls around and I began blogging which I never heard of before. In December, the 60th birthday happened. The new 40 I hear. My story in a nut shell and it brings me to January 1, 2008. I just can not wait to see what is going to happen.

My pray is that if 2007 was not the best for you that 2008 is better and you become excited with the wonder of what God has planned. My pray for my family is that my oldest finds a nice Christian man, my youngest and her husband tells me I am going to become a grandmother, and my husband has a good year in the Insurance business and farming is good. For me, I pray that I see God and what He has in store for me and I can meet someone that I can make a difference for the good in their life or many. I do not want to stifle God in anyway. I will close with a phrase my hubby says, SMILE, GOD LOVES YOU!!
