bedroom, big girl pants, decluttering, early rising, hot tub, obsession with rocks, snow, thinking of George, tidying

spent most of the day in the bedroom, changing bedding, cleaning and reorganizing… ran a couple of loads of laundry and got it all put away…

put on the blanket on the bed that George loved… will be thinking of him when I climb into bed tonight…

took my time and watched tv and read as well so that I wasn’t worn out…

decluttered by getting rid of some books, clothes and a few bits and pieces…

mementos...

mementos…

moved my rocks/gems/shells to a different container – actually a winnowing basket from an event in 1993, and got my little fountain going… looks very nice… not sure if I’ve mentioned my obsession with rocks/stones… from my visits to Cyndi and Ron’s in BC I have brought back a good portion of Goose Spit, lol…

am always happy when I can get rid of stuff and be happy in the process… hope to continue on a bit tomorrow in the dining room…

added chemicals to the hot tub throughout the afternoon and was headed out there tonight when I discovered that the deck and ground were covered with a dusting of snow… the young man next door is having a party and I don’t usually go out but had decided it would be nice before bed… when I discovered the snow, it just seemed like a sign…

so, am writing my blog and going to bed… looks like the snow might be gone by morning so I will have a tub when I get up, which hopefully won’t be at 6 am like this morning…

My day…

laughing all day, memories, thinking of George, Xel-Ha

today was my day…  we went to Xel-Ha (Shell Hah) and snorkeled, swam with dolfins, walked on the bottom with fancy helmets on, saw the manatees and snorkeled some more…

day started out with Jeff making me laugh and it continued on in that vein…  I had a fun-filled day in the water with all my kids…

on the bus at 7 am...

on the bus at 7 am…

I got my hair, ears, nose and eyes drenched all day long, which is really saying something as I usually have an aversion to water in my face and ears… it was a wonderFULL day topped off with room service for dinner and some retail therapy…

I thought of George throughout the day and into the evening, knowing that he would be so happy we were having such a great time…

the only downer was that the littlest person got the same bug as the other two had and slowed down a bit in the late afternoon…

amazingly, the dolphins were able to push me up...

amazingly, the dolphins were able to push me up…

what memories we made today…
