 Good evening everyone!!!! Today is my Birth brothers Birthday. It was fun to call and leave him  a Birthday message. I'm going to be sending him some pictures since he doesn't have a computer. I'm doing so much better. I wish I could have had the shot a long time a go. Each day my hand and arm are getting better. The doctor said it would take up to 2 weeks.

We are turning my car back in because of all the problems we have had with it. The owner is going to work with us on another car.

We called on a house in Salt Lake yesterday and drove and looked at it. It is a twinhouse. I fell in love with it. It is 3 bedroom 1 1\2 baths. The basement is unfinished which is fine . Alex uses it for his work. The 3 bedrooms are upstairs. It has new carpet, stove and dishwasher. The only problems is it doesn't have a back yard for Cookie.  We need to get a frige. The rent is $995. I also love the big kitchen and the big walk in pantry.

We stopped and saw my son's new home . It is really cute and she has it decorated so nice. I couldn't pay $1250. Even if it has 4 Bedrooms and a double car garage. My grandkids were glad to see grandma &grandpa.

We also stopped and visited my daughter & her 2 little rugrats.

We also took a minute and visited with one of my special friends that lives in the area. She was surprised I was going to move back by my Grandchildren. I have many friends in the area. I lived there for 30 years.

It will feel like I'm moving back home. I hope and pray that we can get the home.

Well I'm very tired so I'm off to bed. It is a long drive around trip is about 6 hours.

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. Sleep well all my wonderful friends. Big Tuesday Hugs~~~~~Suzanne

Today

By B.L Redetzke

Open your eyes

You say to me

Face the morning sun

The past is behnd us

Like empty baggage

We tosss it in the river

The rushing waters take it away

Today is a new day

I close my eyes

And jump in after it

The cold water races through my blood

I try to reach out for the bags

My body stiffens from the cold

My lungs gasp for more air

I try to stay afloat

The current takes me under

Still living in the past

You scream to me

Today is a new day

But like a child's love of Christmas

It lingers in my mind

I allow the water to take me

Take me until the water is no more

Just hundreds of bags

I close my eyes and go to sleep

Laying in the sea of the past

Wake up, you say

Face the morning sun

Get out of the past

Today is a new day
