1/17/2022 YES such a long time since I have written in this mostly hidden blog. For some crazy reason tonight I am sitting on my couch thinking of the my "just for fun" blog I created so many years ago. I have read through the old posts and started thinking WOW. So much has changed since I started this small venture. The pictures above were supposed to be taken by my sister Tamela Combs Asher. Unfortunately, sadly, horribly she passed away the middle of November in 2016. I also have a cousin who is a photographer, Vanna Hurley Napier who stepped in and photographed our Christmas pictures for us that year. To think so many years have gone by since these were taken is surreal to me. My son is now 18, planning to leave for college in August of this year. I have lost and added a few more dogs in our lives since then as well! I have been a CVICU nurse for the last 3 years (I have been a nurse for 22 years). Covid -19 has taken over the world, our daily lives. My health has declined abit, but doesn't hitting 50 cause much of that? August 2021 I contracted Covid. I had worked with this horrible virus since the beginning of the beginning. My son returns to school after near a year and half of home schooling and POOF we all have Covid. I spent almost 4 weeks off work. I was on oxygen, nebulizer treatments, vitamins and lots of other meds. I have never been so ill in my 50 years. I was one of the blessed, lucky, whatever one would like to call it. I survived!!!!! So many younger and healthier people than myself were dying. At this point I just thank God that I survived to continue taking care of my kid (well young man with no common sense)! He needs me so much, my animals need me and Stephen needs me, although I am not sure he would admit it!!!!!!
Here's hoping everyone is enjoying or hating as most of you do this snowy weather we are having this week. I am a snow lover! Cheers and God Bless
